select voice #042, press “0” on the numeric keypad, then “4.”, “2.” For voice
numbers beginning with zeroes (such as #042 or #006), the initial zeroes
may be omitted.
■ Using the [+]/[-] buttons
Press the [+] button to select the next voice number, and press the [-] button
to select the previous voice. Holding down either key continuously scrolls

• Each voice is automatically
called up with the most suitable
octave range setting. Thus, play-
ing middle C with one voice may
sound higher or lower than
another voice at the same key.
• Four of the Organ voices are
effect “pairs.” Switching between
each of the paired voices (with
the [+]/[-] buttons) turns the effect
of the voice on or off. For exam-
ple, for the Vibrato pair (#010 and
#011), selecting #010 turns the
vibrato effect off, while selecting
#011 turns vibrato on. The same
applies to the Harmony, Attack
and Wave voices (#012 - #017).
• The PSR-160 is polyphonic up to
a maximum of 16 notes.
(Depending on the voice selected
— such as split voices and dual
voices — fewer notes may be
available.) This includes not only
the notes played from the key-
board, but also the notes in a
style pattern, the notes played by
a Pad (page 51), and so on.
Thus, if you play too many notes
at one time, some may not sound
and/or others may be cancelled.
