Introduction
With the convenient Voice Editor, you can use a computer to edit your synthesizer's voices and
effects. The graphical user interface makes editing easy and intuitive - letting you use your
computer keyboard and mouse to control and change the various parameters from the onscreen
sliders, switches, buttons, and so on. What's more, all changes you make to the voices can be
saved to your computer.
n Voice Editor for Windows is a plug-in software. To use it, you'll need to install an appropriate compatible host
application (sequencer, etc.).
