Each pitch bank contains 13 sinultaneously available pitcn sources at precise semitone intervals - covering an entire chromatic octave. The pitch banks may be in the seme oF different octaves, and can cover the Fange from one above to three octaves below the synthesizer oscillator In automatic pitch following mode, Poly-Box locks onto the synthesizer pitch and follows it through, bend, vibrato, portamento and keyboard transpos?- tions, The pitches in each pitch bank change in paraliel with the synthesizer pitch. The Poly-Box keyboard and controls are used to select which of the pitenes in the pitch banks - up to 26 at one time - are passed on through the synthesizer! Poly-Box is easy to add to your present synthesizer It takes just 2 patchcords to use Poly-Box with any patcnable synthesizer.
