[B] OTS LINK TIMING This applies to the OTS Link function. This parameter determines the timing in which the One Touch Settings change with the MAIN VARIATION [A] – [D] change. (The [OTS LINK] button must be on.) REAL TIME One Touch Setting is immediately called up when you press a MAIN VARIATION button. NEXT BAR One Touch Setting is called up at the next measure, after you press a MAIN VARIATION button.
3 Styles – Playing Rhythm and Accompaniment – [3]/ [4] SYNCHRO STOP WINDOW This determines how long you can hold a chord before the Synchro Stop function is automatically cancelled. When the [SYNC STOP] button is turned on and this is set to a value other than “OFF,” the Synchro Stop function is automatically cancelled if you hold a chord for longer than the time set here. This conveniently resets Style playback control to normal, letting you release the keys and still have the Style play.
Specifying Chords with Your Right Hand while Playing Bass with Your Left Hand By changing the Chord Detection area from the left-hand section to the right-hand section, you can play the bass line with your left hand while using your right hand to control Style playback. 1 Call up the operation display.
Searching for Suitable Songs for the Current Style (Repertoire) You can search for music pieces and songs that are most suitable for playing with the current Style by using the Repertoire function. You can automatically call up appropriate settings such as Voice, effect and pedal by selecting the desired music piece. Before using the Repertoire function, you need to import Music Finder records (see instructions described in the Owner's Manual, chapter 8).
Memorizing an Original One Touch Setting While the panel settings appropriate for each preset Style are pre-programmed as One Touch Settings, you can also register your favorite settings to create original One Touch Settings. Because the One Touch Setting data is included in a Style, the Save operation will be done as a Style on the Style Selection display. 1 Select the desired Style to correspond to your One Touch Setting. 2 Set up the panel controls (such as Voice, effects, and so on) as desired.
Creating/Editing Styles (Style Creator) Styles are made up of fifteen different sections (Intro, Main, Ending, etc.) and each section has eight separate channels. With the Style Creator feature, you can create a Style by separately recording the channels, or by importing pattern data from other existing Styles. Sections Channels 3 Styles – Playing Rhythm and Accompaniment – You can use one of the three different methods described below to create a Style. The created Style can also be edited.
Realtime Recording In the BASIC Page, you can create a single Style by recording the individual channels one-by-one, using realtime recording. Realtime Recording Characteristics — Loop Recording and Overdub Recording • Loop Recording Style playback repeats the rhythm patterns of several measures in a “loop,” and Style recording is also done using loops. For example, if you start recording with a two-measure MAIN section, the two measures are repeatedly recorded.
5 6 Use the [5]/[6] buttons to determine the length (number of measures) of the selected section, then press the [D] (EXECUTE) button to actually enter the specified length. Specify the channel to be recorded by simultaneously holding down the [F] (REC CH) button and pressing the appropriate numbered button, [1] – [8]. To cancel the selection, press the corresponding [1] – [8] button again.
9 Start recording by pressing the STYLE [START/STOP] button. Playback of the specified section starts. Since the accompaniment pattern plays back repeatedly in a loop, you can record individual sounds one by one, listening to the previous sounds as they play. For information on recording to channels other than the rhythm channels (RHY1, 2), refer to the section “Rules when recording non-rhythm channels” below. NOTE You can turn off the desired channels by pressing the corresponding [1] – [8] buttons.
Step Recording (Inputting events one by one) In the EDIT Page, you can record notes with absolutely precise timing. This Step Recording procedure is essentially the same as that for Song Recording (page 50) with the exception of the points listed below: • In the Song Creator, the End Mark position can be changed freely; in the Style Creator, it cannot be changed. This is because the length of the Style is automatically fixed, depending on the selected section.
4 Select the channel for which you wish to replace the pattern by using the [A] – [D] and [F] – [I] buttons. Call up the Style Selection display by pressing the same button again. Select the Style containing the pattern you want to replace in the Style Selection display. To return to the previous screen, press the [EXIT] button after selecting the Style.
Editing the Rhythmic Feel 1 3 2 1 3 1 Styles – Playing Rhythm and Accompaniment – In the GROOVE Page, use the [A]/[B] buttons to select the edit menu, then edit the data by using the [1] – [8] buttons. 1 GROOVE This lets you add swing to the music or change the “feel” of the beat by making subtle shifts in the timing (clock) of the Style. The Groove settings are applied to all channels of the selected Style.
2 DYNAMICS This changes the velocity/volume (or accent) of certain notes in the Style playback. The Dynamics settings can be applied individually to each channel or globally to all channels of the selected Style. 3 CHANNEL Selects the desired channel (part) to which Dynamics is to be applied. [3]/ [4] ACCENT TYPE Determines the type of accent applied — in other words, which notes in the part(s) are emphasized with the Dynamics settings.
Editing Data for Each Channel 1 5 4 2 3 1 3 Styles – Playing Rhythm and Accompaniment – In the CHANNEL Page, use the [A]/[B] buttons to select the edit menu. 1 QUANTIZE Same as in the Song Creator (page 61), with the exception of the two additional available parameters below. Eighth notes with swing Sixteenth notes with swing 2 VELOCITY CHANGE Boosts or cuts the velocity of all notes in the specified channel, according to the percentage specified here.
Press the [I] (SAVE) button, then follow the Save operation steps. For details, refer to “Saving Files” in the Owner’s Manual. NOTICE The edited Style will be lost if you change to another Style or turn the power to the instrument off without executing the Save operation. Making Style File Format Settings The Style File Format (SFF) combines all of Yamaha’s auto accompaniment (Style playback) know-how into a single unified format.
1 In the PARAMETER Page, use the [A]/[B] buttons to select the edit menu. For details of the edit menu, see page 34. 1 4 2 3 2 Styles – Playing Rhythm and Accompaniment – 3 4 3 Use the [1]/[2] (CHANNEL) buttons to select the channel to be edited. The selected channel is shown at the upper left of the display. Use the [3] – [8] buttons to edit the data. For details on editable parameters, see pages 34 – 37. Press the [I] (SAVE) button, then follow the Save operation steps.
2 NTR/NTT [3]/ [4] NTR (Note Transposition Rule) Determines the relative position of the root note in the chord, when converted from the Source Pattern in response to chord changes. Refer to the list below. [5] – [7] NTT (Note Transposition Table) Sets the note transposition table for the source pattern. Refer to the list below. [8] NTT BASS ON/ OFF The channel for which this is set to ON will be played back by the bass root note, when the on-bass chord is recognized by the instrument.
3 Styles – Playing Rhythm and Accompaniment – HARMONIC MINOR When the played chord changes from a major to a minor chord, this table lowers the third and sixth intervals in the scale by a semitone. When the chord changes from a minor to a major chord, the minor third and flatted sixth intervals are raised by a semitone. Other notes are not changed. Use this for chord channels of Sections which respond only to major/minor chords, such as Intros and Endings.
3 HIGH KEY / NOTE LIMIT [4]/ [5] HIGH KEY This sets the highest key (upper octave limit) of the note transposition for the chord root change. Any notes calculated to be higher than the highest key are transposed down to the next lowest octave. This setting is effective only when the NTR parameter (page 35) is set to “Root Trans.

Selecting the Master EQ Type The instrument possesses a high-quality five-band digital EQ. With this function, a final effect — tone control — can be added to the output of your instrument. You can select one of the five preset EQ settings in the MEQ display. You can even create your own custom EQ settings by adjusting the frequency bands, and save the settings to one of two User Master EQ types.
Editing Master Compressor Settings Compressor is an effect commonly used to limit and compress the dynamics (softness/loudness) of an audio signal. For signals that vary widely in dynamics, such as vocals and guitar parts, it “squeezes” the dynamic range, effectively making soft sounds louder and loud sounds softer. When used with gain to boost the overall level, this creates a more powerful, more consistently high-level sound.
Saving Master Compressor Settings The Master Compressor settings you have edited on page 86 can be saved as a User Compressor type. Press the [I] (SAVE) button to enter the USER MASTER COMPRESSOR display. 1 Mixing Console – Editing the Volume and Tonal Balance – 1 3 2 2 3 4 5 Select the destination to which the User Master Compressor is to be saved, by using the [3] – [6] buttons.
