Sound Development Manual / 1. Overview

■ MIDI channels and voices: The Saturn sound system can handle up to 32 channels (tracks) of MIDI data at the same time, so if one instrument is MIDI 1 ch, it can handle up to 32 instruments at the same time. But in other words, you have to play all the songs and sound effects in this. There is no problem in situations where songs and sound effects are pronounced independently, but if songs and sound effects, songs and songs, and sound effects and sound effects are pronounced at the same time, they must be assigned to different channels. In this system, 32 MIDI channels are dynamically assigned (DVA) for sounding.
Therefore, each sequence data must have this information at the beginning of the track. To play with the correct tone, be sure to specify the bank (Bank Select of Control Change) and voice (Program Change) for each track of the sequence data.
