are:
The 24-voice INTERNAL memory
This voice memory is used for quick selection of voices for performance, and it is

stored. Cassette LOAD and STORE operations are also carried out to and from the
24-voice INTERNAL memory. Voices from the 192-voice PRESET memory may
also be stored in the INTERNAL memory.
The 96-voice BANK memory (4 BANKS x 24 voices each)
The BANK memory incorporates four 24-voice BANKS-A, B, C and D. The BANK
is most useful for storing groups of voices you have arranged for specific purposes.
The different banks may be programmed with different voice groups you need for
different “sets” in a performance, you can categorize your voices into BANK S (i.e.
piano-type voices in one bank, brass in another, etc.), any combination you like.
The BANK can be loaded with voices from the PRESET memory (described below)
or from the INTERNAL memory using the EDIT BANK function.
