DX Voice SelectionThe PLG100-DX voices can be selected just like the voices for the XG tone generator itself.
However, to use the PLG100-DX voices, XG mode or performance mode (PERFORM) must be
selected in the Sound Module Mode of the XG tone generator. Also the part/performance layer
assigned to the PLG100-DX must be specified in the sub-mode (PLUGIN) of the utility mode of
the XG tone generator.
• The displays used below for explaining tone generator operations are from the MU100. The screens may be
different for the tone generator you are using.
• For tone generators, like the SW1000XG, that have no display, the settings must be sent as System Exclusive
Messages (

MIDI Data Format).
• The SW1000XG does not support the Performance Mode.
■ Selecting the Voices to be Used .............................................................................
1. Set the Sound Module Mode of the XG tone generator to XG or PERFORM.
When XG is selected, the tone generator will enter Multi Mode.
When PERFORM is selected, the tone generator will enter Performance Play Mode.
• DX voices can be selected only when the Part Mode is set to Normal.
• In XG Mode, DX voices can be used as one part, and in Performance Mode, as one layer.
2. Press the [SELECT / ] buttons, and move the cursor to the bank number.
3. Press the [VALUE / ] buttons and select the bank of the voice you wish to use.
Depending on the bank you have selected, one of the following will appear in the bank
number location of the display: 000,064 to 082, 096 to 109 (DX-XG/A); 000,064 to
082 (DX-XG/B); 000 (DX-XG/SFX) or 000 (Custom).
When a DX voice is selected, a DX voice icon will appear in the icon area of the
display.
• Please note that the bank number displayed may be one for the XG tone generator itself. You can make
sure that it is one for the PLG100-DX by checking for a DX voice icon in the icon area of the display.
