Selecting the Harmony/Echo type

You can select the desired Harmony/Echo effect from a variety of types.

1 Turn the [HARMONY/ECHO] button on.

2 Call up the operation display.

[FUNCTION] → [F] HARMONY/ECHO

3 Use the [1 ▲▼]–[3 ▲▼] buttons to select the Harmony/Echo type.

The Harmony/Echo types are divided into the following groups, depending on

the particular effect applied.

● Harmony Types

When one of the Harmony Types is selected, the Harmony effect is applied to

the note played in the right-hand section of the keyboard according to the

type selected above and the chord speciﬁed in the chord section of the key-

board shown below.

● Multi Assign Type

The Multi Assign effect automatically assigns notes played simultaneously on

the right-hand section of the keyboard to separate parts (Voices). For example,

if you play three consecutive notes, the ﬁrst is played by the RIGHT 1 Voice, the

second by the RIGHT 2 Voice, and the third by the RIGHT 3 Voice. The Multi

Assign effect is not affected by the [ACMP] and LEFT part on/off status.

When the [MONO] button is turned to

on or you use the SA/SA2 Voices, the

Harmony/Echo effect may not work

properly.

NOTE

Harmony Types

These types apply the harmony effect to notes played in the right-hand section of

the keyboard according to the chord speciﬁed in the left-hand section of the key-

board. (Note that the “1+5” and “Octave” settings are not affected by the chord.)

Multi Assign Type

This type applies a special effect to chords played in the right-hand section of the

keyboard.

Echo Types

These types apply echo effects to notes played in the right-hand section of the

keyboard in time with the currently set tempo.

● Echo Types

When one of the Echo Types is selected, the corresponding effect (echo, trem-

olo, trill) is applied to the note played in the right-hand section of the key-

board in time with the currently set tempo, regardless of the [ACMP] and the

LEFT part on/off status. Keep in mind that Trill works when you hold down two

notes on the keyboard simultaneously (last two notes if more than two notes

are held), and it plays those notes alternately.

4 Use the [4 ▲▼]–[8 ▲▼] buttons to select various Harmony/Echo set-

tings.

The available settings differ depending on the Harmony/Echo type.

[4 ▲▼] VOLUME This parameter is available for all types with the exception of “Multi Assign.” It

determines the level of the harmony/echo notes generated by the Harmony/

Echo effect.

[5 ▲▼] SPEED This parameter is only available when Echo, Tremolo, or Trill is selected in

Type above. It determines the speed of the Echo, Tremolo, and Trill effects.

[6 ▲▼] ASSIGN This parameter is available for all types with the exception of “Multi Assign.”

This lets you determine the keyboard part via which the harmony/echo notes

will be sounded.

[7 ▲▼] CHORD NOTE

ONLY

This parameter is available when one of the Harmony Types is selected. When

this is set to “ON,” the Harmony effect is applied only to the note (played in

the right-hand section of the keyboard) that belongs to a chord played in the

chord section of the keyboard.

[8 ▲▼] TOUCH LIMIT This parameter is available for all types with the exception of “Multi Assign.” It

determines the lowest velocity value at which the harmony note will sound.

This allows you to selectively apply the harmony by your playing strength, let-

ting you create harmony accents in the melody. The harmony effect is applied

when you play the key strongly (above the set value).

Pitch-Related Settings

2

The tuning of each note for the currently

selected scale is shown.

EQUAL The pitch range of each octave is divided equally into twelve parts,

with each half-step evenly spaced in pitch. This is the most com-

monly used tuning in music today.

PURE MAJOR, PURE

MINOR

These tunings preserve the pure mathematical intervals of each

scale, especially for triad chords (root, third, ﬁfth). You can hear this

best in actual vocal harmonies—such as choirs and a cappella sing-

ing.

PYTHAGOREAN This scale was devised by the famous Greek philosopher and is cre-

ated from a series of perfect ﬁfths, which are collapsed into a single

octave. The 3rd in this tuning are slightly unstable, but the 4th and

5th are beautiful and suitable for some leads.

MEAN-TONE This scale was created as an improvement on the Pythagorean scale,

by making the major third interval more “in tune.” It was especially

popular from the 16th century to the 18th century. Handel, among

others, used this scale.

WERCKMEISTER, KIRN-

BERGER

This composite scale combines the Werckmeister and Kirnberger sys-

tems, which were themselves improvements on the mean-tone and

Pythagorean scales. The main feature of this scale is that each key

has its own unique character. The scale was used extensively during

the time of Bach and Beethoven, and even now it is often used when

performing period music on the harpsichord.

ARABIC1, ARABIC2 Use these tunings when playing Arabic music.

● 2 AFTERTOUCH

Aftertouch can be used to modulate the parameters below. Here, you can set

the degree to which Aftertouch modulates each of the following parameters.

■ SOUND Page

● FILTER

Filter is a processor that changes the timbre or tone of a sound by either block-

ing or passing a speciﬁc frequency range. The parameters below determine

the overall timbre of the sound by boosting or cutting a certain frequency

range. In addition to making the sound either brighter or mellower, Filter can

be used to produce electronic, synthesizer-like effects.

● EG

The EG (Envelope Generator) settings determine how the level of the

sound changes in time. This lets you reproduce many sound charac-

teristics of natural acoustic instruments—such as the quick attack and

decay of percussion sounds, or the long release of a sustained piano

tone.

[2 ▲▼] FILTER Determines the degree to which Aftertouch modulates the Filter Cutoff Fre-

quency. See below for details about Filter.

[3 ▲▼] AMPLITUDE Determines the degree to which Aftertouch modulates the amplitude (vol-

ume).

[5 ▲▼] LFO PMOD Determines the degree to which Aftertouch modulates the pitch, or the

vibrato effect.

[6 ▲▼] LFO FMOD Determines the degree to which Aftertouch modulates the Filter modulation,

or the wah effect.

[7 ▲▼] LFO AMOD Determines the degree to which Aftertouch modulates the amplitude, or the

tremolo effect.

[1 ▲▼] BRIGHTNESS Determines the cutoff frequency or

effective frequency range of the ﬁlter

(see diagram). Higher values result in

a brighter sound.

[1 ▲▼] VOL (Volume) Adjusts the overall volume of the Organ Flutes. The longer the graphic bar,

the greater the volume.

[2 ▲▼] RESP (Response) Affects both the attack and release (page 13) portion of the sound, increasing

or decreasing the response time of the initial swell and release, based on the

FOOTAGE controls. The higher the value, the slower the swell and release.

[3 ▲▼] VIBRATO SPEED Determines the speed of the vibrato effect controlled by the Vibrato On/Off

([F]/[G] buttons) and Vibrato Depth ([H] button).

[4 ▲▼] MODE The MODE control selects between two modes: FIRST and EACH. In the FIRST

mode, attack (percussive sound) is applied only to the ﬁrst notes played and

held simultaneously; while the ﬁrst notes are held, any subsequently played

notes have no attack applied. In the EACH mode, attack is applied equally to

all notes.

[5 ▲▼]–

4’, 2 2/3’, 2’ These determine the attack sound volume of the ORGAN FLUTE Voice. The 4’,

2-2/3’ and 2’ controls increase or reduce the volume of attack sound at the

corresponding footages. The longer the graphic bar, the greater the attack

sound volume.

[8 ▲▼] LENG (Length) Affects the attack portion of the sound producing a longer or shorter decay

immediately after the initial attack. The longer the graphic bar, the longer the

decay.

The powerful Voice Creator features of the Tyros3 give you the tools to create your own original Voices. Voice Cre-

ator allows you to import your own “Wave” (audio samples in WAV or AIFF format), and assign them to the keys—

building completely new Voices with completely new sounds.

Two types of Voices can be created: Normal Voice (see below) and Drum Voice (page 22). The creating procedure

differs depending on the Voice type.

Creating Normal Voices (Custom Voice)

By importing Wave ﬁles, you can create your original Voices—not only create from scratch, but also add Waves to

the existing Voices. A Voice consists of eight elements and you need to assign Wave ﬁles to each element (more

than two Waves can be assigned to one element).

The resulting Voice is called a Custom Voice and can be selected and played in the same way as all other Tyros3

Voices.

1 Prepare the audio data you’ll be using for the new Voice.

Only WAV or AIFF format data can be used for the Voice Creator. Store the ﬁles

in a USB storage device or hard disk drive.

NOTE

Notes for Available Audio Files

• This instrument cannot recognize the extension .aiff. When you use an

AIFF ﬁle, change the extension to .aif.

• Only use uncompressed ﬁles.

• Audio data used for the Voice Creator can be of any sample rate or bit res-

olution. However, all audio data of a resolution other than 16-bit is auto-

matically converted to 16-bit resolution after being loaded.

• Only use Wave data having the following frequencies: 96000 Hz, 88000

Hz, 48000 Hz, 44100 Hz, 32000 Hz, 22050 Hz or 11025 Hz. Otherwise,

the data may not play back at the correct pitch.

•Voice Creator supports and recognizes loops in the audio data, letting you

use up to one loop in each audio ﬁle. (Some sample libraries have loops

already programmed into the data; you can also use audio editing soft-

ware to program loops yourself. Keep in mind however, that multiple

loops are not supported.)

• Audio ﬁles recorded with the Hard Disk Recorder cannot be used as is

with the Voice Creator. If you want to use a Hard Disk Recorder ﬁle,

export the ﬁle in .wav data format.

[D] PROPERTY Shows the Property display (page 25).

[1 ▲▼] FIXED PITCH When this is set to ON, all keys will play the Wave sound at the same pitch.

When set to OFF, the pitch of the Wave sound changes according to the key

played, based around the original pitch (set at Center Key below).

[2 ▲▼]/

[3 ▲▼]

CENTER KEY This determines the key to which the original pitch of the sound is assigned.

When Fixed Pitch (above) is set to OFF, keys below the Center Key play the

sound progressively lower in pitch, while keys above play the sound progres-

sively higher. Normally, you’ll want to make sure that this is the same as the

original sound; for example, if the original pitch of the audio was at C3, set

Center Key to C3 for best results. When Fixed Pitch (above) is set to ON, this

has no effect. You can specify this setting directly from the keyboard by simul-

taneously holding down the [2 ▲▼] (DIRECT KEY) button and pressing the

desired key on the keyboard.

[4 ▲▼]/

[5 ▲▼]

START KEY This determines the lowest key at which the Wave will sound. Use this with

End Key (see step 10 on page 20) to set the key range for the Wave. You can

specify this setting directly from the keyboard by simultaneously holding

down the [4 ▲▼] (DIRECT KEY) button and pressing the desired key on the

keyboard.

[6 ▲▼] WAVE VOLUME This determines the playback volume for the speciﬁc Wave. Normally, this

should be set to the maximum (127); however, you can use it to adjust the

level balance among multiple sounds in the Element.
