 Maximum Polyphony
The 9000Pro features maximum polyphony of 126 notes.  Since Auto Accompaniment 
uses a number of the available notes, the full 126 notes will not be available on the key-
board when Auto Accompaniment is used. The same applies to the Voice R2, Voice R3, 
Voice L, Multi Pad, and Song functions. When the maximum polyphony is exceeded, 
notes are played using last-note priority.
If a Plug-in Board has been installed, the polyphony of the installed board accordingly 
increases the available polyphony for the entire 9000Pro.
PITCH BEND Wheel & MODULATION Wheel
Use the 9000Pro PITCH BEND wheel to bend notes up (roll the wheel away from 
you) or down (roll the wheel toward you) while playing the keyboard. The PITCH 
BEND
 wheel is self-centering and will automatically return to normal pitch when 
released.
The Modulation function applies a vibrato effect to notes played on the keyboard. 
Moving the MODULATION wheel all the way towards yourself minimizes the depth 
of the effect, while rotating it away from yourself increases it.
With many of the Plug-in Voices, you can control various other parameters (e.g., filter, 
etc.) by moving the MODULATION WHEEL (page 103).
