KEYBOARD STAND ASSEMBLY

NOTE: Although the YPP-50 keyboard stand can be assembled

by a single person, the job is much easier with two people.

Open the box and remove all the parts.

On opening the box you should find the parts shown in the

illustration. Check to make sure that all the required parts, are

provided.

Invert the main unit (A).

When main unit (A) is removed from the box, place it upside-

down on a soft, non-abrasive surface such as a clean rug or

blanket to prevent scratches to the finish. This inverted posi-

tion makes it easier to attach the assembled keyboard stand

later on.

Attach the side panels (D) to the front (B) and

rear (C) panels.

Begin by installing the joint connectors in the front (B) and rear

(the rear panel is the wider one) are attached between the side

panels (D) using two long bolts at each end. The sides of the

side panels (D) with the recesses at the top face inwards; the

direction in which the feet extend from the side panels is the

“front” (the direction the keyboard faces). The metal brackets

on the front (B) and rear (C) panels face upwards and inwards.

Attach the first panel loosely so that the second panel slides

into position easily, then attach the second panel and finally

tighten all eight bolts. When the assembly is complete and the

bolts are securely tightened, snap the eight plastic bolt covers

into place over the bolt heads.

l When installing the joint connectors in the holes in the panels,

make sure that the arrows printed on their upper surface face

in the direction shown in the illustration.

Attach the stand assembly to the main unit (A).

Turn the assembled stand upside down and place it on top of

the main unit (which should also be upside-down) with the feet

extending toward the keyboard side of the main unit. The tops

of the side panels fit into the recessed areas at the ends of the

main unit. Align the holes in the front and rear panel brackets

with the holes in the bottom of the main unit, and firmly screw

in the six short bolts through the brackets. Finally, turn the

entire assembly rightside-up and stand it on its feet.

* Check to make sure that all screws have been securely tightened.

Plug in the damper pedal (E)

Plug the supplied FC5 damper pedal cable into the DAMPER

jack on the rear panel of the main unit, and place the pedal

in a convenient position on the floor below the keyboard.

Install the music stand (F)

Insert the bottom (flat) edge of the music stand (F) into the

slot on the top of the main unit (A) so that the music stand

leans backwards away from the keyboard.

TAKING CARE OF YOUR

PERSONAL ELECTRONIC PIANO

Your Personal Electronic Piano is a fine musical instrument,

and deserves the most careful treatment. Observe the following

points and your Personal Electronic Piano will sound and look

great for many years.

Never open the case and touch or tamper with the internal

circuitry.

Always turn the POWER switch OFF after use, and cover

the keyboard with the supplied cover.

Clean the cabinet and keys of your Personal Electronic

Piano only

with a clean, slightly damp cloth. A neutral

cleanser may be used if desired. Never use abrasive cleansers,

waxes, solvents or chemical dust cloths since these can dull

or damage the finish.

Never place any vinyl products on your Personal Electronic

Piano. Contact with vinyl can cause irreversible damage to

the finish.

Install your Personal Electronic Piano in a place that is

away from direct sunlight, excessive humidity or heat.

Never apply excessive force to the controls, connectors or

other parts of your Personal Electronic Piano, and avoid

scratching or bumping it with hard objects.

Do not leave heavy objects on the keyboard for an extended

length of time.

8.Never spill water, beverages or other liquids on the key-

board or any other part of the Personal Electronic Piano.

The YPP-50 contains digital circuitry and may cause inter-

ference if placed too close to radio receivers, television sets

or similar radio-frequency reception equipment. If such a

problem occurs, move the YPP-50 further away from the

affected equipment.

10.

IMPORTANT!: Check your power supply!

Make sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the

voltage specified on the name plate on the bottom panel. In

some areas a voltage selector may be provided on the rear

panel of the main unit. Make sure that the voltage selector

is set for the voltage in your area.

Name Plate Location

The YPP-50 nameplate is located on the bottom panel.

THE CONTROLS AND

CONNECTORS: BASIC OPERATION

POWER Switch

Press the POWER switch once to turn the power ON, a

second time to turn the power OFF. When the power is

initially turned ON, the PIANO voice selector LED will light.

MASTER VOLUME Control

The MASTER VOLUME control adjusts the volume (level)

of sound produced by the Personal Electronic Piano. The

MASTER VOLUME control also adjusts headphone volume

when a pair of headphones is plugged into the HEADPHONE

jack

MIDI/TRANSPOSE Button

The MIDI/TRANSPOSE button allows access to the Personal

Electronic Piano’s TRANSPOSE function (to shift the pitch

of the entire keyboard up or down) and MIDI functions.

For details refer to the “TRANSPOSITION” and “MIDI

FUNCTIONS” sections on pages 8 and 10, respectively.

METRONOME Button

Press the METRONOME button to start the YPP-50’s built-

in metronome. The metronome will sound at either the initial

tempo of 120 beats per minute, or a tempo set using the

TEMPO and

buttons, described below. The METRO-

NOME button LED will flash on the first beat of each

measure. Press the METRONOME button a second time to

stop the metronome sound.

Metronome Volume:

The volume of the metronome sound

can be independently adjusted in five steps (normal volume

plus two steps up and two down) by pressing the TEMPO

button while holding down the METRONOME

button. The button increases the volume while the

button decreases the volume. Normal volume can be

restored by holding the METRONOME button and press-

ing both the TEMPO

and

buttons simultaneously.

Note: The metronome is also related to operation of the YPP-50

Performance Memory. This relationship will be described

in the “PERFORMANCE MEMORY” section on page 9.

TEMPO

and Buttons

The TEMPO

and

buttons are mainly used to adjust

the tempo of the YPP-50 metronome. The tempo can be

adjusted from 32 to 280 beats per minute in the following

steps:

40 44

66 68

70 72 74 76 78 80 82 84 86 88 90

METRO-

NOME Button” above, and “TRANSPOSITION” on page

8 for details.

Voice Selectors

The YPP-50 has eight voice selectors. Simply press any of

the voice selectors to select the corresponding voice. The

LED indicator above the voice selector will light to indicate

which voice is currently selected.

The Bass Split Mode:

The YPP-50 Bass Split Mode allows

the BASS voice to be played on all keys to the left of

and including the F

2 key, and any other voice to played

on all keys to the right of the F

2 key. To activate the

Bass Split mode and select the right-hand voice, hold

down the BASS voice selector and press the voice selector

corresponding to the desired right-hand voice, then release

both voice selectors. Both the BASS LED and the LED

of the selected right-hand voice will light. Please note that

the damper pedal does not affect the bass voice in the

Bass Split mode. The Bass Split mode can be disengaged

and the normal voice mode restored by simply pressing

any single voice selector.

Note: The PIANO voice is automatically selected whenever the

POWER switch is initially turned ON.

PERFORMANCE MEMORY REC and PLAY Buttons

These buttons activate the YPP-50 Performance Memory

record and playback functions. Operation of the Performance

Memory is described in detail on page 9.

DEMO Button

Press the DEMO button to hear the YPP-50’s pre-programmed

demonstration. Further details are given on page 8.

HEADPHONE Jack

A standard pair of stereo headphones can be plugged in here

for private practice or late-night playing. The internal speaker

system is automatically shut off when a pair of headphones

is plugged into the HEADPHONE jack.

OPTIONAL IN L/R and OUT L/R Jacks

These jacks are intended primarily for use with Yamaha EM-

series Expander Modules such as the EME-1 Reverb Box,

EMT-1 FM Sound Box, EMT-10 AWM Sound Box and

EMR-1 Drum Box. In the case of the EME-1 Reverb Box,

for example, the OPTIONAL OUT jacks connect to the

EME-1 LINE IN jacks, and the EME-1 LINE OUT jacks

connect back to the Personal Electronic Piano OPTIONAL

IN jacks. This allows application of a range of high-quality

digital effects, including reverb and echo, to the Personal

Electronic Piano sound. Refer to the EM-series Expander

Module device owner’s manual for connection details.

DAMPER Jack

The supplied damper pedal (Yamaha FC-5) should be plugged

in here. The damper pedal functions in the same way as a

damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the damper pedal

is pressed notes played have a long sustain. Releasing the

pedal immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes.

MIDI IN and OUT Connectors

The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from anexternal

MIDI device (such as the EMQ-1 Memory Box) which can

be used to control the Personal Electronic Piano. The MIDI

OUT connector transmits MIDI data generated by the Per-

sonal Electronic Piano (e.g. note and velocity data produced

by playing the Personal Electronic Piano keyboard).

More details on MIDI are given in “MIDI FUNCTIONS”

on page 10.

ENJOY THE DEMONSTRATION

To give you an idea of the YPP-50’s sophisticated capabilities,

it is programmed with a demonstration sequence which plays

automatically while demonstrating some of the instrument’s

voices. Short segments of the following pieces are included:

l 24 Preludes No. 15 in D flat major. “Raindrop” Op.28-15

by Chopin (PIANO voice).

The Harmonious Blacksmith by Händel (HARPSI voice).

Arabesque by Debussy (PIANO voice).

Fugue in G minor by Bach (P.ORGAN voice).

1. Press the POWER switch to turn the instrument ON. The

PIANO voice selector LED will light when the power is ON.

2. Slide the MASTER VOLUME control to a position about

three quarters of the way towards the “MAX” setting. You

can set this control for the most comfortable volume level

after playback begins.

3. The demonstration music will begin playing as soon as you

press the DEMO button.

The demonstration will play continuously, providing samples

of different voices, until the DEMO button is pressed a second

time.

l A different voice or tempo can be selected at any time while

the demonstration is playing (refer to the appropriate sections

of this manual for instructions). Voice changes, however, will

only remain in effect until the next automatic voice change.

PLAYING THE PERSONAL

ELECTRONIC PIANO

After making sure that the Personal Electronic Piano’s AC

plug is properly inserted into a convenient AC wall outlet:

1. Press the POWER switch located to the left of the keyboard

to turn the power ON. When the power is turned ON, the

PIANO voice selector LED will light (the PIANO voice is

automatically selected whenever the power is turned ON).

2. Initially set the MASTER VOLUME control about three

quarters of the way towards the “MAX” setting. Then, when

you start playing, adjust the VOLUME control for the most

comfortable listening level.

3. Select the desired voice by pressing one of the voice selectors.

4. Play.

Note: The Personal Electronic Piano has “8-note polyphony”

which means you can play up to 8 notes at once. If you

activate the Bass Split mode, up to two notes can be played

on the lower (bass) section of the keyboard and up to

six notes can be played on the upper fright-hand) section

(see Voice Selectors- The Bass Split Mode” on page

7). The Metronome also uses one note, so up to seven

notes can be played on the keyboard while the metronome

is running (the metronome uses one note of the right-

hand keyboard section when the Bass Split mode is active).

The Personal Electronic Piano also offers keyboard touch

response, so the volume and timbre of notes played can

be controlled according to how “hard” you play the keys.

The amount of variation available depends on the selected

voice.

TRANSPOSITION

The Personal Electronic Piano’s TRANSPOSE function makes

it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down

in semitone intervals up to a maximum of six semitones. “Trans-

posing” the pitch of the Personal Electronic Piano keyboard

makes it easier to play in difficult key signatures, and you can

simply match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer

or other instrumentalist.

The MIDI/TRANSPOSE button and TEMPO and buttons

are used for transposition.

1. Press and hold the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

2. Press the TEMPO or button as many times as necessary

to produce the desired degree of transposition. Each time

the TEMPO or button is pressed the pitch of the key-

board is transposed by one semitone in the specified direction

(i.e. up or down). Pitch can be transposed up or down by

a maximum of six semitones.*

3. Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

* Pressing both the TEMPO and buttons simultaneously while

the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button is held produces normal keyboard

pitch.

PITCH CONTROL

Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Personal Electronic

Piano over a ±50-cent range in approximately 3-cent intervals.

A hundred “cents” equals one semitone, so the tuning range

provided allows fine tuning of overall pitch over a range of

approximately a semitone. Pitch control is useful for tuning

the Personal Electronic Piano to match other instruments or

recorded music.

Tuning Up

1. To tune up (raise pitch), hold the E

0 and F0 keys simultane-

ously.

2. Press any key between C

3 and B3. Each time a key in this

range is pressed the pitch is increased by approximately 3

cents, up to a maximum of 50 cents above standard pitch.

3. Release the E

0 and F0 keys.

Tuning Down

I. To tune down (lower pitch), hold the E

and F

0 keys simul-

taneously.

2. Press any key between C

3 and B3. Each time a key in this

range is pressed the pitch is decreased by approximately 3

cents, up to a maximum of 50 cents below standard pitch.

3. Release the E

0 and F#0 keys.

To Restore Standard Pitch*

To restore standard pitch (A3 = 440 Hz), hold the E0, F0 and

0 Tkeys simultaneously.

2. Press any key between C

3 and B3.

3. Release the E

0, F0 and F#0 keys.

* Standard pitch (A3 = 440 Hz) is automatically set whenever the

POWER switch is initially turned ON.

THE PERFORMANCE MEMORY

The YPP-50 Performance Memory functions as a digital record-

er that allows you to record and play back anything you play

on the keyboard. You can simply enjoy listening to playback

of your performance, or play along with it on the keyboard.

You can record using any single voice, or using the Bass Split

mode for a combination of left-hand bass and right-hand chords

or melody lines.

The Performance Memory records the following data: notes

played, damper pedal operations, voice selection, bass split

mode, the initial tempo and tempo changes made during the

recording.

Up to approximately 1300 notes can be recorded in the Perfor-

mance Memory. This number varies, however, according to

damper-pedal usage and other factors.

Material recorded using the Performance Memory will be retained

in the YPP-50 memory for approximately one week even the

power is left OFF the entire time. To keep the recorded per-

formance in memory for longer periods, make sure that the

YPP-50 power is turned ON briefly at least once a week.

Note: Recording can not be activatedif the YPP-60 Multi-Timbre

Mode is engaged (see “The Multi-Timbre Mode” in the

“MIDI FUNCTIONS” section of this manual-page 101.

Recording

1. Set the Record Ready Mode

Press the PERFORMANCE MEMORY REC button. This

engages the “record ready” mode: the REC LED will light

and the metronome will sound at the currently selected

tempo.

2. Set the Tempo

Before actually beginning to record, you should select a

tempo that will be easy to record at (using the TEMPO

and/or buttons). If you don’t want to hear the metronome

while recording, press the METRONOME button at this stage

—the metronome sound will stop but the METRONOME

LED will continue flashing at the selected tempo.

3. Start Recording

Recording will begin automatically as soon as you begin

playing.

4. Stop Recording

Press the REC button a second time to stop recording. It is

also possible to stop recording by pressing the PLAY button.

Recording will stop automatically if you exceed the Perfor-

mance Memory note capacity.

Whenever you record using the Performance Memory, any previ-

ously recorded material will be erased.

The Performance Memory can be erased deliberately as follows:

press the PERFORMANCE MEMORY REC button while holding

down the E

0 and F0 keys (the two lowest white keys on the

keyboard), release the button and keys, and then press the PER-

FORMANCE MEMORY REC button one more time to exit the record

mode.

Playback

1. Press the PLAY Button

Playback of the Performance Memory recording begins as

soon as you press the PERFORMANCE MEMORY PLAY

button (the PLAY button LED will also light).

2. Play Along if You Like

Play along on the YPP-50 keyboard if you like. Please note,

however, that the YPP-50’s eight-note polyphony limitation

still applies. In other words, the total number of notes being

played back by the Performance Memory and those played

on the keyboard cannot exceed eight at any instant.

3. Stop Playback

Playback will stop automatically when the end of the record-

ing is reached. You can also stop playback at any time by

pressing the PLAY or REC button. Playback will also stop

if the DEMO button is pressed or if a MIDI STOP message

is received via the MIDI IN connector.

MIDI FUNCTIONS

A Brief Introduction to MIDI

MIDI, the Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a world-

standard communication interface that allows MIDI-compatible

musical instruments and equipment to share musical information

and control one another. This makes it possible to create “sys-

tems” of MIDI instruments and equipment that offer far greater

versatility and control than is available with isolated instruments.

For example, most MIDI keyboards (including the Personal

Electronic Piano, of course) transmit note and velocity (touch

response) information via the MIDI OUT connector whenever

a note is played on the keyboard. If the MIDI OUT connector

is connected to the MIDI IN connector of a second keyboard

(synthesizer, etc.) or a tone generator such as the Yamaha

EMT-1 FM Sound Box (essentially a synthesizer with no key-

board), the second keyboard or tone generator will respond

precisely to notes played on the original transmitting keyboard.

The result is that you can effectively play two instruments at

once, providing thick multi-instrument sounds.

—

This same type of musical information transfer is used for

MIDI sequence recording. A sequence recorder such as the

Yamaha EMQ-1 Memory Box can be used to “record” MIDI

data received from a Personal Electronic Piano, for example.

When the recorded data is played back, the Personal Electronic

Piano automatically “plays” the recorded performance in precise

detail.

The examples given above really only scratch the surface. MIDI

can do much, much more. The YPP-50 offers a number of

MIDI functions that allow it to be used in fairly sophisticated

MIDI systems.

Note: Always use a high-quality MIDI cable to connect MIDI OUT

to MIDI IN terminals. Never use MIDI cables longer than

about 15 meters, since cables longer than this can pick up

noise which can cause data errors.

MIDI “Messages” Transmitted & Receiv-

ed by the Personal Electronic Piano ___

The MIDI information (messages) transmitted and received by

the YPP-50 Personal Electronic Piano are as follows:

Note and Velocity Data

This information tells the receiving keyboard or tone generator

to play a certain note (specified by the MIDI note number) at

a certain dynamic level (specified by the MIDI velocity value).

Note and velocity data is transmitted by the Personal Electronic

Piano whenever a key is pressed, and the Personal Electronic

Piano’s internal AWM tone generator will “play” the cor-

responding note(s) whenever note and velocity data is received

from an external MID1 device.

Program Change Numbers

The YPP-50 transmits a MIDI program number between 0 and

14 when one of its voice selectors is pressed. This normally

causes the correspondingly numbered voice or program to be

selected on a receiving MIDI device. The Personal Electronic

Piano will respond in the same way, automatically selecting

the appropriate voice when a MIDI program change number

is received. See “Program Change ON/OFF” on page 11 for

information on turning program change number reception and

transmission ON or OFF.

Control Change Numbers

Control Change data representing damper pedal operations is

transmitted by the Personal Electronic Piano whenever the pedal

is used. If the receiving device is a tone generator or another

keyboard, it will respond in the same way as the Personal

Electronic Piano’s internal tone generator when these controls

are used. The Personal Electronic Piano also receives and

responds to these as well as some additional control change

data described in the “MIDI DATA FORMAT” section of

this manual. See “Control Change ON/OFF” on page 11 for

information on turning control change number reception and

transmission ON or OFF.

Note: None of the YPP-50 MIDI functions can be engaged while the

built-in metronome is running.

MIDI Transmit & Receive Channel

Selection

The MIDI system allows transmission and reception of MIDI

data on 16 different channels. Multiple channels have been

implemented to allow selective control of certain instruments

or devices connected in series. For example, a single MIDI

sequence recorder could be used to “play” two different instru-

ments or tone generators. One of the instruments or tone genera-

tors could be set to receive only on channel 1, while the other

is set to receive on channel 2. In this situation the first instru-

ment or tone generator will respond only to channel-l infor-

mation transmitted by the sequence recorder, while the second

instrument or tone generator will respond only to channel-2

information. This allows the sequence recorder to “play” two

completely different parts on the receiving instruments or tone

generators.

In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the trans-

mitting and receiving equipment must be matched for proper

data transfer. An “OMNI” receive mode is also available,

which allows reception on all 16 MlDI channels. In the OMNI

mode it is not necessary to match the receive channel of the

receiving device to the the transmit channel of the transmitting

device (except when receiving mode messages).

Setting the Personal Electronic Piano MIDI Channels

1. Press and hold the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

2. Press the key on the keyboard corresponding to the desired

MIDI transmit or receive channel.*

3. Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

* Keys C1 through D#2 on the keyboard are used to set the MIDI

transmit channel, and keys C

3 through D#4 are used to turn the

l The MIDI functions listed above are engaged by holding down the

MIDI/TRANSPOSE button and pressing the corresponding voice

selector. Full details are given in the following pages.

Local Control ON/OFF

“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the Personal

Electronic Piano keyboard controls its internal tone generator,

allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the key-

board. This situation is “Local Control ON” since the internal

tone generator is controlled locally by its own keyboard.

Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that the Personal

Electronic Piano keyboard does not

play the internal voices,

but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via

the MIDI OUT connector when notes are played on the key-

board. At the same time, the internal tone generator responds

to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN connector. This

means that while an external MIDI sequence recorder such as

the Yamaha EMQ-1 Memory Box, for example, plays the Per-

sonal Electronic Piano’s internal voices, an external tone genera-

tor such as the EMT-l can be played from the Personal Elec-

tronic Piano keyboard.

Turning Local Control ON or OFF

Hold down the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

Press the PIANO voice selector. If the PIANO LED is lit

when the PIANO voice selector is pressed; you have turned

local control OFF. If the PIANO LED is not lit when the

PIANO voice selector is pressed, you have turned local con-

trol ON.

Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

Program Change ON/OFF

Normally the Personal Electronic Piano will respond to MIDI

program change numbers received from an external keyboard

or other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly numbered

Personal Electronic Piano voice to be selected. The Personal

Electronic Piano will normally also send a MIDI program change

number whenever one of its voices is selected, causing the cor-

respondingly numbered voice or program to be selected on the

external MIDI device if the device is set up to receive and res-

pond to MIDI program change numbers.

This function makes it possible to cancel program change number

reception and transmission so that voices can be selected on

the Personal Electronic Piano without affecting the external

MIDI device, and vice versa.

1.Hold down the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

Press the E.PIANO voice selector. If the E.PIANO LED is

lit when the E.PIANO voice selector is pressed, you have

turned program change reception/transmission OFF. If the

E.PIANO LED is not lit when the E.PIANO voice selector

is pressed, you have turned program change reception/trans-

mission ON.

Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

Control Change ON/OFF

Normally the Personal Electronic Piano will respond to MIDI

control change data received from an external MIDI device or

keyboard, causing the selected Personal Electronic Piano voice

to be affected by pedal and other “control” settings received

from the controlling device. The Personal Electronic Piano also

transmits MIDI control change information when either of its

pedals are operated.

This function makes it possible to cancel control change data

reception and transmission if you do not want the Personal

Electronic Piano voices to be affected by control change data

received from an external device or vice versa.

Hold down the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

Press the HARPSI voice selector. If the HARPSI LED is

lit when the HARPSI voice selector is pressed, you have

turned control change reception/transmission OFF. If the

HARPSI LED is not lit when the HARPSI voice selector is

pressed, you have turned control change reception/trans-

mission ON.

Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

The Multi-Timbre Mode

The Multi-Timbre mode is a special mode in which the Personal

Electronic Piano voices can be independently controlled on

different MIDI channel numbers (1 through 10) by an external

MIDI device such as the Yamaha EMQ-1 Memory Box.

The Multi-Timbre mode can be activated as follows:

Hold down the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

2. Press the VIBES voice selector. If the VIBES LED is lit when

the VIBES voice selector is pressed, you have turned the

Multi-Timbre mode ON. If the VIBES LED is not lit when

the VIBES voice selector is pressed, you have turned the

Multi-Timbre mode OFF.

Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

Here’s an example of how you could

use the Multi-Timbre

mode to record three different parts on the EMQ-1 Memory

Box that will play different voices on the Personal Electronic

Piano when played back.

1. Connect the EMQ-1 to the Personal Electronic Piano as

shown below.

2. Select the first voice and MIDI transmit channel number,

then record the first part on the EMQ-1.

3. Activate the Personal Electronic Piano Multi-Timbre mode,

then select a new MIDI transmit channel and voice and record

the second part on the EMQ-1 using its overdubbing function.

4. While still in the Multi-Timbre mode, select the third MIDI

transmit channel and voice and record the third part on the

EMQ-1 using its overdubbing function.

5. Still in the Multi-Timbre mode, play back the EMQ-1. The

recorded parts will be played back using the individual voices

selected during recording, providing a full ensemble sound.

The Split & Left Local OFF Mode

In the split mode one section of the Personal Electronic Piano

keyboard is used to play a Personal Electronic Piano voice in

the normal way, while the remaining section is used to play a

second MIDI keyboard or tone generator such as the Yamaha

EMT-1 FM Sound Box or EMT-10 AWM Sound Box. In this

mode the right-hand section of the keyboard is used to play

an internal Personal Electronic Piano voice, while the left-hand

section of the keyboard plays the external keyboard or tone

generator. Playing the left-hand section of the keyboard pro-

duces no sound from the Personal Electronic Piano. The “split

point,”

or the key that divides the left- and right-hand sections

of the keyboard, is automatically set at F#

The split mode is useful if, for example, you want to play a

piano (Personal Electronic Piano) voice with the right hand

while playing a synthesizer bass line or string section with the

left hand.

When the split mode is activated, notes played on the left-

hand section are transmitted via the Personal Electronic Piano

MIDI OUT connector on MIDI channel 2. Notes played on the

right-hand section are transmitted on the “basic channel” (i.e.

the channel set using the MIDI channel selection function des-

cribed previously). Damper pedal data is sent via both channels.

Activating the Split & Left Local OFF Mode

Hold down the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

Press the STRINGS voice selector. If the STRINGS LED is

lit when the STRINGS voice selector is pressed, you have

turned the Split & Left Local OFF mode ON. If the STRINGS

LED is not tit when the STRINGS voice selector is pressed,

you have turned the Split & Left Local OFF mode OFF.

Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

The Split & Right Local Off Mode

In the YPP-50 either the right- or left-hand section of the key-

board can be assigned to control an external keyboard or tone

generator. Assigning the left-hand section to external tone gener-

ator control was described in the previous section. To assign

the right-hand section to external tone generator control while

playing the Personal Electronic Piano voices with the left hand,

press the BRASS voice selector instead of the STRINGS voice

selector when activating the Split mode (See “Activating the

Split & Left Local OFF Mode” in the previous section). All

other operations are exactly the same as described in the pre-

vious section.

Transmitting the Panel Settings

This function causes all the current Personal Electronic Piano

control settings (selected voice, etc) to be transmitted via the

MIDI OUT terminal. This is particularly useful if you will be

recording performances to a MIDI sequence recorder* which

will be used to control the Personal Electronic Piano on play-

back. By transmitting the Personal Electronic Piano panel set-

tings and recording them on the MIDI sequence recorder prior

to the actual performance data, the Personal Electronic Piano

will be automatically restored to the same settings when the

performance is played back.

The Yamaha EMQ-1 Memory Box automatically receives and

records the Personal Electronic Piano panel settings when a record-

ing is begun, so this function is most useful with MIDI sequence

recorders other

than the EMQ-1.

Hold down the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

Press the P.ORGAN voice selector.

Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

TROUBLESHOOTING

MIDI DATA FORMAT

If you encounter what appears to be a malfunction, please check

the following points before assuming that your Personal Elec-

tronic Piano is faulty.

1. No Sound When the Power is Turned ON

Is the AC plug properly connected to an AC wall outlet?

Check the AC connection carefully. Is the MASTER VOLUME

control turned up to a reasonable listening level?

2. The Personal Electronic Piano Reproduces Radio or TV

Sound

This can occur if there is a high-power transmitter in your

vicinity. Contact your Yamaha dealer.

3. Intermittent Static Noise

This is usually due to turning ON or OFF a household appli-

ance or other electronic equipment which is fed by the same

AC mains line as your Personal Electronic Piano.

4. Interference Appears On Radio or TV Sets Located Near

the Personal Electronic Piano

The Personal Electronic Piano contains digital circuitry which

can generate radio-frequency noise. The solution is to move

the Personal Electronic Piano further away from the affected

equipment, or vice versa.

5. Distorted Sound When the Personal Electronic Piano is Con-

nected to An External Amplifier/Speaker System

If the Personal Electronic Piano is connected to a stereo

system or instrument amplifier and the sound is distorted,

reduce the setting of the Personal Electronic Piano volume

control to a level at which the distortion ceases.
