Installing Expansion Packs lets you add a variety of optional Voices and Styles to the “Expansion” folder in
the User drive.
Installing the Expansion Pack data from the USB Flash Drive
The file which contains the bundled Expansion Packs (“***.ppi,” “***.cpi,” “***.pqi,” or “***.cqi”) to be
installed to the instrument is referred to as the “Pack Installation file.” Only one Pack Installation file can be
installed to the instrument. If you want to install multiple Expansion Packs, bundle the packs together on
your computer by using the “Yamaha Expansion Manager” software. For information on how to use the
software, refer to the accompanying manual.
NOTICE
You will need to restart the instrument after installation has been completed. Make sure to save all data currently being edited before-
hand, otherwise it will be lost.
NOTE To obtain the Yamaha Expansion Manager software and its manuals, access the Yamaha Downloads website:

Adding New Contents—Expansion Packs
Song, Style or Registration Memory containing Expansion Voices or Styles
If the Expansion Pack data does not exist in the instrument, Song, Style or Registration Memory contain-
ing any Expansion Voices or Styles will not sound properly or cannot be called up. We recommend that
you write down the name of the Expansion Pack when you create the data (Song, Style or Registration
Memory) using Expansion Voices or Styles, so that you can easily find and install the Expansion Pack
when necessary.
