POLY MODE

In normal operation the Monomachine offers six tracks of multitimbral monophonic sound
synthesis. Ensemble machines (see Appendix A for more information) can be used to
make up to four notes chords using only one track, but for using the other machines poly-
phonically you need to enter the POLY mode.

1.

Press [POLY] while holding [FUNCTION] to enter POLY mode. The POLY mode is indi-
cated by both the and LED’s being lit.

In POLY mode all six Monomachine sound engines polyphonically generate the sound of
only one track. All tracks beside the one currently selected with the [TRACK] keys are dis-
abled. The currently selected track instead offers six notes of polyphony.

In POLY mode, the internal sequencer operates polyphonically. You can use
chords to generate polyphonic chords. Just remember that all other tracks except
the one currently selected are disabled while in POLY mode.
