The stereo opcode variants have bit 1 of the command stream set. The polyphony is split into two parts: 1) polyphony, meaning that voices reuse the same opcodes; 2) multitrack voices, meaning that a track triggers more than voice. They both can be flexible defined in any combinations: for example voice 1 and 2 can be triggered by track 1 and use instrument 1, and voice 3 by track 2/instrument 2 and voice 4 by track 3/instrument 2. This is achieved through the use of bitmasks: in the aforementioned example, bit 1 of su_voicetrack_bitmask would be set, meaning "the voice after voice #1 will be triggered by the same track". On the other hand, bits 1 and 3 of su_polyphony_bitmask would be set to indicate that "the voices after #1 and #3 will reuse the same instruments".
