A paraphonic synth can play multiple notes at a time, but only has one voice architecture — in other words, every played note shares the same VCA [voltage controlled amplifier] envelope. This means that you cannot play one note and then trigger a second note while the first note continues to ring out. If you play a second note then either the first note will trigger again, or it will simply stop/end. 2, record 1, English, - paraphonic%20synthesizer
