AN(Poly) Voices (EX5, EX5R, and EX7)
A standard (Poly) AN voice can have 1 AN element and from 1 to 3 AWM elements. If you’re
striving to create a classic analog synth or FM synthesizer type sound, it is probably better to start
with the single AN element alone. Add AWM elements as necessary to “modernize” the sound.
More on AN voices on page 112.
AN(Layer) Voices (EX5 and EX5R only)
AN layer voices can have 1 or 2 AN elements and 1 or 2 AWM elements. When you need a really
thick, powerful pad or a punchy analog type voice, try combining the two AN elements in this
voice type. Once again, the AWM elements are there when you need them to add realistic samples
or other textures.
FDSP Voices (EX5, EX5R, and EX7)
FDSP voices have from 1 to 4 AWM elements with an FDSP stage between the elements and the
main effect stage. The FDSP stage can be applied to any or all of the AWM elements used, as
required.
More on FDSP voices on page 123.
