Overview of the PLG150-AP

Main Features of the PLG150-AP

Once connected and installed, the PLG150-AP becomes a seamless additional sound source for the
host tone generator or synthesizer — providing a total of 32 acoustic piano voices, which can be
edited from the panel of the host device. The PLG150-AP can be easily installed to any device
compatible with the Modular Synthesis Plug-in System or the XG Plug-in System.
A single PLG150-AP Plug-in Board functions as one part for the host device, providing up to 64
different voices (in mono sampling), and several boards can be installed to the same host device.
Thanks to the built-in effect processing power, the PLG150-AP has four separate effect blocks —
Reverb, Chorus, Insertion and two-band EQ — that can be applied to each voice.
The PLG150-AP precisely simulates the actual acoustic behavior and motion sound when using the
damper pedal.
The PLG150-AP features voices with stretch tuning — the same kind of tuning as used on an actual
acoustic piano.
Stretch tuning is widely used in the piano tuning profession, recognizing the phenomenon of human
hearing by which higher notes sound slightly flat, even when perfectly in tune. Stretch tuning pro-
gressively raises the pitch of higher notes and decreases that of lower notes. Compared to precise
equal temperament, the overall effect is greater tonal brilliance and a full, rich sound when playing
open voiced chords.

Installing the PLG150-AP

For detailed instructions on installing the PLG150-AP, refer to the owner's manual of the Plug-in-
compatible "mother" device (e.g., MOTIF series, S series, MU series, etc.).
