To Layer Voices and Samples
The ranges of two or more voices may overlap, and all voices assigned to a key will
sound.
Another way of visualizing this assignment is shown below.
VOICE 1 VOICE 2 VOICE 3 VOICE 4
To Positionally Crossfade
This technique can help mask the point at which two sounds meet or can be used for
crossfading sound effects. The fade parameters allow the volume of the voice or sample
to be faded out as a function of key position. In the screen shown below, voices 1 and 2
are being positionally crossfaded over a range of five notes.
As the voice boundaries are crossed playing up the keyboard, the lower voice gradually
fades out as the upper voice fades in.
