7 Music Data Recorder (MDR) The Music Data Recorder (M.D.R.) is a sophisticated recording system built into the Electone that lets you record your performances and Registration settings to a SmartMedia card or other external media. If you install the optional floppy disk drive, the UD-FD01 to the ELS-01, you can record your performances/settings to floppy disks instead of SmartMedia cards. (The ELS-01C/ 01X has a built-in floppy disk drive.) Contents 1 Calling Up the M.D.R. Display . . . . . . . . . . . .
Handling SmartMedia™* memory cards ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● *SmartMedia is a trademark of Toshiba Corporation. This instrument features a built-in SmartMedia card slot. It lets you save original data you’ve created on the instrument to a SmartMedia card, and allows you to load data from a card to the instrument. Be sure to handle SmartMedia cards with care. Follow the important precautions below. ■Compatible SmartMedia types • 3.
Handling the floppy disk drive (FDD) and floppy disks ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● If you have the ELS-01, install the optional UD-FD01 floppy disk drive to use floppy disks with the Electone. For information on how to install the UD-FD01, see page 221. Be sure to handle floppy disks and treat the disk drive with care. Follow the important precautions below. ■Floppy disk compatibility • 3.5" 2DD and 2HD type floppy disks can be used.
2 Formatting External Media If you find that you are unable to use new, blank external media (such as SmartMedia cards, floppy disks or USB storage devices) or old ones that have been used with other devices, you may need to format them. Formatting erases all the data in the media and makes it ready to record. The data erased by formatting will be lost permanently. Check whether or not the media contains any important data you wish to keep before executing the operation.

9 Rhythm Program The Electone includes powerful rhythm programming functions: Rhythm Pattern Program and Rhythm Sequence Program. Rhythm Pattern Program allows you to record your own original rhythms and save them as user rhythms. Rhythm Sequence Program lets you connect the existing rhythms or your original rhythms to create complete rhythm tracks, which you can automatically play back during your performance.
2 Rhythm Pattern Program Rhythm Pattern Program lets you use any of the different instrument sounds (drum and percussion) assigned to each key on the Upper and Lower keyboards in creating your own rhythms. Up to 48 of your original rhythms can be saved as User Rhythms.
To create your own rhythm from scratch: Press the [PATTERN] button and release it without selecting a Rhythm button. A blank pattern is loaded to the Rhythm Pattern Program. A Rhythm consists of 15 sections: Intro 1 – 3, Main A – D, Fill In A – D, Ending 1 – 3, and Break. In Rhythm Pattern Program, you can enter or edit percussion notes one by one, or assemble each part from other different rhythms to create your own new User Rhythm.

2 Connection Examples – External Devices Before connecting the Electone to other electronic components, turn off the power to all the components. Before turning the power of the components on or off, set all volume levels to minimum (0). Otherwise, electrical shock or damage to the components may occur. Using Headphones ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● To use headphones, connect them to one of the PHONES jacks (standard 1/4" phone jacks).
Connection example: Using a mixer for live performance Generally, when you use the Electone on stage (in concert, etc.), you should connect it to a mixer. By using a mixer, you can easily adjust the volume and tone quality of each component. To connect to a mixer, use the AUX OUT jacks of the Electone. The Electone features different types of AUX OUT jacks, allowing you to choose the appropriate one for your specific application.
Recording the Sounds of the Electone to an External Recorder ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● NOTE If you want to record the sound input from the AUX IN jack together with the Electone sound, use the AUX OUT standard phone jack on the underside of the keyboard. You can record your Electone performance to an external recorder, such as an MD recorder or cassette tape recorder, using the OPTICAL OUT terminal or AUX OUT jacks.
Connecting a Microphone or Guitar ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● By connecting a microphone to the Electone, you can enjoy singing along with your own performance. The Electone outputs your vocals or guitar sounds through the built-in speakers. 1 Connect your microphone to the MIC./LINE IN jack (standard 1/4"phone jack). A dynamic microphone is recommended. MIC./LINE IN Set the MIC.
To adjust the volume/reverb: Reference Page Reverb (page 46) 1 Press the [UTILITY] button on the panel to call up the Utility display. 2 Using the MIC. REVERB and VOLUME sliders in the GLOBAL Page, adjust the amount of the reverb applied to the microphone, and the volume. No sound from the microphone can be heard even though you raise the volume here, unless you turn the INPUT VOLUME knob to the right.
Controlling the Electone from an External Device ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● You can use an external MIDI keyboard or sequencer to remotely play the sounds of your Electone and change its Registrations. (You will need to set the MIDI transmit channels of the MIDI keyboard to match the fixed receive channels on your Electone.) NOTE When you are using the M.D.R., MIDI data cannot be received.
3 Connection with Computer By using the USB TO HOST terminal or MIDI IN/OUT terminals, you can connect your Electone to a computer and receive/transmit MIDI data (for more information about MIDI, see page 213). Before you can actually transfer data between the Electone and a computer via the USB connection, you will need to install an appropriate MIDI driver. Download the latest MIDI driver software from the Yamaha web site at “http://music.yamaha.com/download/.” NOTE When you are using the M.D.R.
Using the MIDI IN/OUT terminals ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● By using an optional MIDI interface such as the UX16, you can connect the Electone to the computer, with the MIDI IN/OUT terminals on the instrument.
As shown in the illustration above, in an electronic instrument the sampled note (previously recorded note) stored in the tone generator section (electronic circuit) is played based on information received from the keyboard, and output through the speakers. So then what is the information from the keyboard that becomes the basis for note production? For example, let’s say you play a “C” quarter note using the grand piano sound on the Electone keyboard.
MIDI Messages of the Electone ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● MIDI messages can be divided into two groups: the Channel Messages and System Messages. Channel Messages consist of data related to the performance on the keyboard for a specific channel. System Messages consist of data that allows several MIDI devices to communicate with each other.
MIDI Channels ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● MIDI data is assigned to one of sixteen MIDI channels. Using these channels, 1 – 16, the performance data for sixteen different instrument parts can be simultaneously sent over one MIDI cable. Think of the MIDI channels as TV channels. Each TV station transmits its broadcasts over a specific channel.
5 MIDI Control When you connect your Electone with a second MIDI device (such as a synthesizer or computer), you can determine how the Electone controls that MIDI device, or how the Electone is controlled. 1 Press the [UTILITY] button in the panel to call up the Utility Display. 2 Press the [MIDI] button at the top right of the display to call up the MIDI Page. 1 2 3 3-1 1 3 -2 3 -3 OUTPUT For setting the channels over which MIDI information will be transmitted.
3 INTERNAL/EXTERNAL Switches control over the displayed items between the Electone (INTERNAL) or the connected device (EXTERNAL). 3 - 1 LEAD 1 Determines Internal or External control of the Lead Voices. INT. (Internal): Lead Voice 1 is played from the Upper keyboard of the Electone. (If the To Lower function is on, it is played from Lower keyboard.) EXT. (External): The Lead Voice 1 is played from the connected instrument via MIDI channel 4. 3 - 2 SYNC.

Installing the Pedalboard (ELS-01X) If you are using the ELS-01X, uninstall the pedalboard before moving the Electone and install it again after moving. Installing the Pedalboard ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Precautions 2 Before installing/uninstalling, turn the power of the Electone off. Securely connect the output cord to the left side of the pedalboard. Also, connect the pedalboard cord by fastening to the nut.

Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause and Solution GENERAL OPERATION The sound is not heard for about 10 seconds after turning the power on. This is normal; the Electone takes a while to start up. A cracking noise is sometimes heard. Noise may be produced when either an electrical appliance is turned on or an electric power tool (such as drill) is used in the proximity of the Electone.
Problem Possible Cause and Solution When keys are pressed, the sounds of percussion instruments are also heard. The Keyboard Percussion function has been turned on. When not using the function, be sure to turn it off (page 65). Even though a User button’s rhythm has been selected and started, the pattern does not sound. Since the User buttons contain User rhythms, no rhythm will sound if a pattern has not been saved to the selected User button. EFFECTS The Touch Tone function does not operate.
Problem Possible Cause and Solution Recording is stopped before the performance is finished. • The amount of recorded data on the media is close to the maximum limit. Either use another media or delete the data of unnecessary songs. • When you overwrite the song, the length of a subsequently recorded part cannot exceed the length of the previously recorded parts. Delete the previously recorded song, then record again (page 120). • The performance data is too large.
