Playing the Demo Song Playing the Demo Song Now that you’ve set everything up properly, try playing the built-in Demo Song. This showcases the high-quality Voices and the AWM tone generation system of the MU5. Operation 1 Simultaneously hold down the s buttons and press the E button. PART SELECT OCT DOWN PGM # VOICE NAME OCT UP ENTER 2 Simultaneously hold down the s buttons and press the E button again to start the song.
Using the MU5 — The Play Mode Now that you’ve heard the sophisticated capabilities of the MU5, try playing with some of them yourself in the Play mode. When you turn on the power of the MU5 or press the e button, the Play mode is automatically called up. In this mode, you can select any of the 16 Parts for playing, and select which Voice is played in each Part.
Using the MU5 — The Play Mode The velocity of the keyboard is fixed; in other words, each note you play sounds at a predetermined volume. You can change this velocity setting from the Velocity parameter in the Utility mode. (See page 34.) Changing the Octave Setting Though the keyboard itself is two octaves, you can actually play the MU5 over a ten-octave range. To do this use the d (OCTAVE DOWN) and u (OCTAVE UP) buttons.
Selecting a Part and Changing the Voice Now, let’s select a different Part and change its Voice. Operation 1 Use the < buttons to select Part 2. (If Part 1 is shown in the display, simply press the . button once.) PART PGM # VOICE NAME PART Indicates selected Part. A total of 16 Parts are available, and each is shown in the display. 2 Use the _ buttons to select program number 12, “Vibes.” (You can also use the number keys on the keyboard to select a Voice; see boxed section on the next page.
Using the MU5 — The Play Mode ■ Using the Number Keys to Select a Voice In the Play mode, you can also use the number keys to select a Voice’s program number. To do this, simultaneously hold down the s buttons and press the number of the value you wish to set. For example, to set a value of 47, simultaneously hold down the s buttons and press 4, then 7, and finally press the E button to actually enter the new value.
Using the MU5 with a Computer or Sequencer By connecting the MU5 to a computer or sequencer, you have a powerful music system for playing back songs and even and creating your own songs, using the Voices of the MU5. Make sure that the MU5 is properly connected to the computer or sequencer, and that your music software is ready to run. (Refer to pages 17 – 21 for connection examples and instructions.
Using the MU5 with a Computer or Sequencer / Using the MU5 with a MIDI Data Storage Device / Muting and Soloing Parts Muting and Soloing Parts While a song is playing back on your computer or sequencer, you can selectively mute or solo any of the 16 Parts of the MU5. Mute lets you silence one Part to hear how all of the other Parts sound without it. Solo lets you isolate a single Part, to hear how that Part sounds by itself.
Editing The editing features of the MU5 provide various controls for changing the Parts and setting other important operating functions. Among other things, these let you set the Volume or pitch of each Part independently, change the Velocity of the built-in keyboard, and save all of your edits to a connected computer, sequencer or data storage device. The MU5 has two edit modes: Utility and Part Edit.
Editing ● Use the number keys on the keyboard. While holding down the s buttons, press the number of the value you wish to set. For example, to set a value of 47, simultaneously hold down the s buttons and press 4, then 7, and finally press the E button to actually enter the new value.
Reference Utility Mode The Utility mode lets you set functions related to the overall operation of the MU5, such as Master Tune, Transpose and Velocity settings. Included also are utility operations, such as sending bulk data to a data storage device, and initializing of the MU5 settings. Master Tune PGM # PART Not available Range +/- 100 cents Default 0 VOICE NAME Tuning value This determines the overall fine tuning of the MU5’s Voices.
Utility Mode Transpose PART PGM # Not available Range +/- 24 semitones Default 0 VOICE NAME Transpose value This determines the overall key transposition of the MU5’s Voices, over a total range of four octaves in semitone steps. A Transpose setting of “0” results in normal pitch. Unlike Master Tune, it has no effect on the individual drum/percussion sounds of the drum kits.
Velocity PGM # PART Not available Range 1 – 127 Default 88 VOICE NAME Velocity setting This determines the note on velocity of the built-in keyboard. All notes that you play from the MU5’s keyboard will be at this fixed velocity, and sound at the same level. This velocity is also transmitted to connected devices via the MIDI or TO HOST terminals. However, this does not affect the incoming velocity of notes played from a connected sequencer or external keyboard. NOTE 34 Page 34 99.12.
Utility Mode Local Control PGM # PART Not available VOICE NAME Local Control setting Settings Off, On (Use the -/= buttons to change this setting.) Default On This determines whether or not the internal tone generator responds to the notes you play on the MU5’s keyboard. Setting this to Off effectively disconnects the MU5 keyboard from the internal tone generator. However, notes played on the keyboard are still transmitted via the TO HOST or MIDI OUT terminals.
Dump Out PART PGM # Not available Settings 1 – 16, All Default All VOICE NAME Device number setting (see boxed section on page 37). This function allows you to save the current parameter settings of the MU5 to a MIDI sequencer, computer or a MIDI data recorder (such as the Yamaha MDF2 MIDI Data Filer). ● Saving & Restoring Data via MIDI MU5 MIDI OUT MIDI IN MIDI IN MIDI DATA RECORDER MIDI OUT Bulk Dump data can be sent and received using the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT connections.
Utility Mode Operation 1 Make sure that the MU5 is properly connected to the device and that the HOST SELECT switch is properly set. When using the MIDI terminals, connect the MIDI OUT of the MU5 to the MIDI IN of the data recorder. (See the Saving & Restoring Data via MIDI illustration above.) Also, set the HOST SELECT switch to MIDI. When using the TO HOST terminal, make sure that the HOST SELECT switch is set corresponding to the device to be used.
Initialize All PGM # PART VOICE NAME This operation allows you to restore the original factory settings of the MU5. ■ CAUTION! Operation Using Initialize All will erase whatever settings you’ve made on the MU5. If you have important settings you wish to keep, store them to a MIDI data recorder with the Dump Out function. (See page 36.) Simultaneously hold down the s buttons and press E.
Part Edit Mode Part Edit Mode The Part Edit mode allows you to change certain settings for each individual Part. Keep in mind, though, that the settings you make may automatically change when playing songs on a connected sequencer. For example, the song data may include different Volume, Pan and Note Shift settings for each Part. Volume Volume setting PART PGM # VOICE NAME Graphically shows Volume position for each Part.
Pan Pan setting PART PGM # VOICE NAME Graphically shows Pan position for each Part. Selected Part 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1112 13 14 15 16 Range L 64 – C 00 – R 63 Default C 00 This determines the stereo position of a selected Part. The Pan position is graphically represented by bars in the display. A double bar (equal sign) in the middle represents the center position (C 00), while a bar at the top indicates full right (R 63) and a bar at the bottom indicates full left (L 64).
Part Edit Mode Note Shift Note Shift setting PART PGM # VOICE NAME Shows Note Shift setting for each Part. Selected Part 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1112 13 14 15 16 Range -24 – +24 semitones Default 00 This determines the key transposition (Note Shift) setting for each Part. Keep in mind that the actual key transposition of the Part also depends on the global Transpose setting in the Utility menu (see page 33). Part Tune Part Tune setting PART PGM # VOICE NAME Shows Part Tune setting for each Part.
Pitch Bend Range Bend Range setting PART PGM # VOICE NAME Shows Bend Range setting for each Part. Selected Part 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1112 13 14 15 16 Range -24 – +24 semitones Default +02 This determines the maximum range over which the pitch of the Part can be changed by Pitch Bend messages. Most MIDI keyboards feature a Pitch Bend wheel, which allows you to “bend” the pitch up or down as you play.
