According to the "Used" indicator on my EXS24's interface, no. I have a
big-ass bass instrument with finger, slap, acoustic and distorted samples,
all key switched. When I play one note, however, that event only consumes
one note of polyphony. So, I don't know what's happening there... Unless
maybe the stereo sample is actually two mono samples panned and therefore
two voices??!
