The VOICE PLAY Mode

When the VOICE sound module mode is selected (see “The VL70-m Sound Module Modes, page 27), pressing the [PLAY] button engages the VL70-m VOICE PLAY mode. This mode allows voices to be selected and played, and thus is the mode you’ll normally use when playing the VL70-m. The VOICE PLAY mode also provides access to several important performance parameters including volume, panning, etc. The VOICE PLAY mode actually has two control modes — the main control mode and the sub-control mode — which provide access to different sets of parameters, as described below.

The VOICE PLAY Main Control Mode

This mode is initially selected when the VL70-m power is turned on. If the sub-control mode is active (see page 34), the main control mode can be

selected by simultaneously pressing the PART [-] and [+] buttons. The VOICE PLAY main control mode display looks like this:

The various parameters in this mode are selected via the SELECT [<] and [>] buttons. The name of the currently selected parameter appears in the upper right corner of the display (when the bank and program number parameters are showing a solid triangular pointer indicates which of the two parameters is selected). A small triangular pointer appears above the icon corresponding to the selected parameter in the bottom line of the display. Once the desired parameter has been selected, it’s value can be set as required via the VALUE [-] and [+] buttons.
