Yamaha PSR-S500 Voice List, Maximum Polyphony

Voice List

■Maximum Polyphony ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ●

The instrument has 32-note maximum polyphony. This means that it can play a maximum of up to 32 notes at once, regardless of what functions are used. Auto accompaniment uses a number of the available notes, so when auto accompaniment is used the total number of available notes for playing on the keyboard is correspondingly reduced. The same applies to the Split Voice and Song functions. If the maximum polyphony is exceeded, earlier played notes will be cut off and the most recent notes have priority (last note priority).

NOTE

•The Voice List includes MIDI program change numbers for each voice. Use these program change numbers when playing the instrument via MIDI from an external device.

•Program Numbers 001 to 128 directly relate to MIDI Pro- gram Change Numbers 000 to 127. That is, Program Num- bers and Program Change Numbers differ by a value of 1. Remember to take this into consideration.

•Some voices may sound continuously or have a long decay after the notes have been released while the sus- tain pedal (footswitch) is held.
