I don’t feel qualified to explain voice allocation–I understand it in my head, but doubt I’d explain it well.
Unison is well…unison : ) It uses all the voices to play the same note. You can use the Unison Detune to make a thicker sound. This detunes all the voices slightly so you get more harmonics (?). If you look up a basic definition of Unison it may help haha. In this mode you play only one note at a time on any of the tracks (it essentially turns the A4 into a monosynth). A lot of dance music uses unison voicing modes for big lead sounds as they tend to be “thick” and stand out in a mix.
I can explain Unison too !
I admit that pictures in the manual are not very helpful.
You understand Use Track Sound for sure…You’re not stupid.
I understood better testing by ear, but I can’t explain it right now what were my conclusions, because behaviours of poly priorities are difficult to understand when you use poly, internal sequencer, Sound Locks, external keyboard, Multi Map…
Yeah mate, I kind of just messed with different settings and kind of got my head round it. Can’t really explain what’s happening, but it can create nice variations on different patterns
Just give it a try, you record notes in A4, with track sounds, you can add Sound Locks playing them with 2 clic in a track, go to sound pool, choose and play/rec.
If you play over your records with a keyboard or Ot’s Arp, or sequences, it will replace A4’s notes.
