GM System Level 1

“GM System Level 1” is an addition to the

MIDI standard which ensures that any GM-

compatible music data can be accurately

played by any GM-compatible tone generator,

regardless of manufacturer. The GM mark is

affixed to all software and hardware products

that support GM System Level.

XGlite

As its name implies, “XGlite” is a simplified

version of Yamaha’s high-quality XG tone

generation format. Naturally, you can play

back any XG song data using an XGlite tone

generator. However, keep in mind that some

songs may play back differently compared to

the original data, due to the reduced set of

control parameters and effects.

USB

USB is an abbreviation for Universal

Serial Bus. It is a serial interface for con-

necting a computer with peripheral

devices. It allows “hot swapping” (con-

necting peripheral devices while the

power to the computer is on).

Style File Format (SFF)

The Style File Format combines all of

Yamaha’s auto accompaniment know-

how into a single unified format.

Power Requirements

Although the instrument will run either from an AC

adaptor or batteries, Yamaha recommends use of an

AC adaptor whenever possible. An AC adaptor is

more environmentally friendly than batteries and

does not deplete resources.

Using an AC adaptor

1 Make sure that the power of the instrument is off

(the backlight display is off).

2 Connect the AC adaptor to the DC IN jack (power

supply jack).

3 Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.

 Notice for the AC adaptor

Depending on your particular locale, the AC adaptor

having a separable plug should be used. If the plug is

accidentally removed from the AC adaptor, make

sure to follow the explanations below for your safety.

Reattaching the plug removed from the AC

adaptor

Without touching the metallic section, slide the plug

into place as shown below then push it in completely

until you hear the click sound.

• Use the specified adaptor (page 48) only. Using the

wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument

or overheating.

• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC

outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trou-

ble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the

power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet.

• After turning off the power, follow this procedure in reverse

order to disconnect the AC adaptor.

• Power will be automatically drawn from the AC adaptor if an

AC adaptor is connected while batteries are installed in the

instrument.

Setting Up

Using Batteries

This instrument requires six “AA” size, Alkaline (LR6)/

Manganese (R6) batteries, or rechargeable nickel-

metal hydride batteries (rechargeable Ni-MH batter-

ies). The Alkaline batteries or rechargeable Ni-MH

batteries are recommended for this instrument, since

other types may result in poorer battery performance.

 Installing the batteries

1 Make sure that the power of the instrument is off.

2 Open the battery compartment cover located on

the instrument’s bottom panel.

3 Insert the six new batteries, putting them in the

correct direction according to the illustration.

4 Replace the compartment cover, making sure that

it locks firmly in place.

When battery power becomes too low for proper

operation, the volume may be reduced, the sound

may be distorted, and other problems may occur.

When this happens, make sure to replace all batter-

ies with new ones or already-recharged ones.

 Setting the battery type

After installing new batteries and turning the power

on, make sure to set the Battery Type appropriately

(rechargeable or not) via Function number 061 (page

44).

• Connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor with batteries

installed may turn the power off, resulting in loss of data

being recorded or transferred at the time.

• Change the setting of the instrument according to the kind

of battery you are using (Battery Type; page 44).

NOTICE

• This instrument cannot charge the batteries. Use only the

specified charger device when charging.

• Power will be automatically drawn from the AC adaptor if an

AC adaptor is connected while batteries are installed in the

instrument.

• Failure to set the Battery Type may shorten the amount of

the battery life. Make sure to set the Battery Type correctly.

The [PITCH BEND] wheel can be used to add

smooth pitch variations to notes you play on the key-

board.

Roll the wheel upward to raise the pitch, or downward

to lower the pitch. When you release the wheel it will

automatically return to center position and the key-

board pitch will return to normal.

Adjust the pitch bend range

You can adjust the range of the pitch bend wheel in

semitone increments. This can be set via Function

number 006 (page 42).

When the pitch bend range is set to “2,” for example,

rolling the wheel all the way up will produce a maxi-

mum pitch rise of 2 semitones (one whole tone), and

rolling it all the way down will produce a maximum

pitch drop of the same amount (2 semitones or one

whole tone). With the highest possible pitch bend

range setting of “12,” the pitch bend range becomes

+/-1 octave.

When Touch Response is on, you can control the vol-

ume of notes according to how hard you play the

keys. Touch Response is normally on. Press the

Voice.

By specifying the Harmony Type, you can apply har-

mony parts, such as duet or trio, or add tremolo or

echo effects to the played sound of the Main Voice or

the Dual Voice. Also, when the Arpeggio Type is

selected, arpeggios (broken chords) are automati-

cally played back when you simply play the appropri-

ate notes on the keyboard. For example, you could

play the notes of a triad—the root, third, and fifth—

and the Arpeggio function will automatically create a

variety of interesting phrases. This feature can be

used creatively in music production as well as perfor-

mance.

trigger the Harmony or Arpeggio.

When a Harmony Type is selected, a harmony

part (for example, duet or trio) or an effect (for

example, tremolo or echo) can be added to the

played sound of the Main Voice.

Also, when an Arpeggio Type is selected, arpeg-

gios (broken chords) are automatically played

back when you simply play the appropriate notes

on the keyboard. The particular arpeggio phrase

differs depending on the number of pressed notes

and the area of the keyboard.

To turn the Harmony or Arpeggio off,

press the [HARMONY/ARPEGGIO] but-

ton again.

Adding Harmony or Arpeggio
