VL70M vs EX5

The VL Element is monophonic, as on the VL70M and MU100R, while the AN Element is duophonic in the AN (Poly) + AWM mode and monophonic per Element in the AWM (Layer) + AWM and AN + FDSP modes.

Yamaha's Virtual Acoustic ("VL") Synthesis tone generation system applies sophisticated computer based "physical modeling" technology to musical sound synthesis, accurately simulating the very complex vibrations, resonances, reflections and other acoustic phenomena that occur in a real wind or string instrument. VL voices can have 1 VL element and from 1 to 3 AWM elements. The VL element can be used alone to emphasize the full realism and expressive power of the VL tone generator, or with added AWM elements for thicker textures.
