SQ-R Drum Sound Configuration
As discussed earlier, SQ-R sounds come in two distinct varieties: Standard
sounds and Drum sounds. SQ-R Drum sounds differ from Standard sounds in
two major areas:
Number of Voices — Standard sounds are made up of three voices. Drum
sounds are comprised of 77 separate voices. Each voice can be used as a
separate drum or percussion instrument. Drum sounds use only one voice per
key.
Voice Architecture — Each of the 17 voices within a SQ-R Drum sound consists
of:
• a digital oscillator playing any of the wavesamples from the SQ-R wave
memory (except TRANSWAVES and MULTI-WAVE),
• two multi-mode digital filters that are fixed in a 4 pole low pass mode, and
• a set of parameters specific to Drum sounds.
