Is there a way to limit the polyphony in a program to, say, 8? In other words, when I hold down 8 notes and then play a 9th note, the first note I played stops playing. This is desirable as it allows me to better emulate older synthesizers. I did an end-to-end search of the parameter guide with keyword "polyphony" and didn't find the answer.

no, you can't do that

but you can get an R3 to do so

I could call Joey "Sciosciammocca" Crapanzano and Ferdinando "Slim" Affatigato,

and have them cut your little fingers off. That would limit polyphony to 8.

They did that for me once, when a not-so-wise guy didn't return an OB-8 within the established deadline.

24 hours later he came crawling and delivered an OB-12.

The 4 extra voices (nice 50% surcharge for 24 hours), we didn't compute as "interest",

just as a gift, a sign of Respect for the Family.



Unfortunately we soon discovered the ob-12 voices weren't voices at all (in the ob-8 sense): the whole thing was a scam from a guy nicknamed "The Viscount".

The man currently sleeps with the fish.

man, was I outsmarted!

So many amusing photos on the Internet...
