Cautions for safest use of this unit  
Installation location  
If operation seems abnormal  
Immediately turn off the power, disconnect the power  
cord plug from the electrical outlet, and contact the  
store where it was purchased.  
1. A well-ventilated place.  
Take care not to use this unit in a place where it  
will not receive sufficient ventilation, and not to  
permit the ventilation holes to be covered by cur-  
tains, or any similar materials.  
Discontinue using the unit at once. Failure to do so  
may result in additional damage or some other unex-  
pected damage or accident.  
• Because the power source is located inside the  
unit, it is normal for the cabinet to become warm.  
2. Place away from direct sunlight and excessive  
heat from heating equipment.  
3. A place where humidity, vibration and dust are  
minimized.  
A word about the power cord  
Power source  
If the power cord is scarred, is partially cut or  
bronken, or has a bad contact, it may cause a fire or  
serious electrical shock if used. NEVER use a dam-  
aged power cord for any appliance. Moreover, the  
power cord should never be forcibly bent.  
1. Be sure the line voltage selector is in accordance  
with local voltage in your area before connecting  
the plug to the socket.  
2. DC power cannot be used.  
Handling the power cord  
Don’t touch the inside parts of this  
unit.  
1. Never touch the power cord, or its plug, with wet  
hands.  
Some places inside this unit have high voltage poten-  
tial. Never try to remove the top or back panels of this  
unit, or to touch inside parts by hand or with tools.  
2. Don’t pull the power cord.  
Metal items inside the unit may  
result in electric shock or damage.  
Do not permit metal articles to get inside the unit.  
Contact someone who is qualified in order to inspect  
the inside, or to replace a fuse, if such becomes nec-  
essary. Never attempt to do these things yourself.  
Be especially careful with regard to this point if  
children are near this unit. They should be warned  
never to try to put anything inside.  
Maintenance  
The following suggestions will assist you in keeping  
the unit in top condition.  
• Be sure to switch the instrument off after use, and  
do not switch the unit on and off in quick  
succession, as this places an undue load on the  
electronic components.  
To keep the luster of the surface and buttons, sim-  
ply use a clean, damp cloth; polish with a soft, dry  
cloth. Polish may be used but do not use thinners  
or petro-chemical-based polishes.  
If, nevertheless, some such article does get inside,  
disconnect the power cord plug from the electrical  
outlet, and contact the store where the unit was  
purchased.  
If water gets into the unit  
Disconnect the power cord plug from the electrical  
outlet, and contact the store where it was purchased.  
• A wax-based polish may be used on the cabinet,  
although you will find that rubbing with a soft cloth  
will suffice.  
As a precaution, it is suggested that flower vases and  
other containers which hold liquids not be placed on  
the top of this unit.  
• This product may receive radio interference  
caused by mobile telephones during use. If such  
interference is apparent, please increase separa-  
tion between the product and the mobile tele-  
phone.  
SVENSK: Det kan inträffa att den här produkten  
under användningen tar emot radiostörningar,  
orsakade av mobiltelefoner. Öka avståndet mellan  
produkten och mobiltelefonen om störningarna är  
uppenbara.

TECHNI-CHORD turns your single note melodies into full chords and offers you a choice of different types  
from a simple duet which adds one harmony note to your melody note, to big band reeds which adds four  
harmony notes to your melody note. If TECHNI-CHORD is part of a ONE TOUCH PLAY or PIANO  
STYLIST registration, a suitable TECHNI-CHORD type will be selected automatically.

mony style.  
When the OCTAVE, HARD ROCK or FANFARE style is  
selected, the TECHNI-CHORD functions even when the  
keyboard is not split.  
ORCHESTRATOR  
You can specify which part is used for the har-  
mony tones. Your TECHNI-CHORD perfor-  
mance is enhanced by selecting harmony  
sounds different from the sounds you play and  
the sounds produced by the automatic accompa-  
niment.  
1.Use the ORCHESTRATOR and buttons  
to select the part for the harmony notes.  
If CONDUCTOR is selected, the harmony notes are pro-  
duced in the sounds of the part which is currently  
selected in the CONDUCTOR (RIGHT 1, RIGHT 2). In  
other words, the harmony notes are produced in the  
same sound as the melody notes. If both RIGHT 1 and  
RIGHT 2 are on, the harmony notes are produced in the  
sound of the RIGHT 1 part.  
In the case of EASY RECORD (see page 58), when set  
to a PART other than PART 4, the TECHNI-CHORD  
sound is not recorded; so when you use EASY  
RECORD, please set to CONDUCTOR or PART 4.

Simply by playing a chord on the keyboard, the AUTO PLAY CHORD function automatically plays an  
accompaniment pattern which matches perfectly the selected rhythm. With a real accompaniment as a  
background, you can concentrate on playing the melody.  
How the AUTO PLAY CHORD works  
Playing chords  
Choose from the 4 ways of playing chords.  
BASIC mode  
Melody  
Chord  
This mode lets beginners specify chords with just  
one finger. With this mode, chords can be speci-  
fied either with one finger <one finger> or by  
pressing all of the chord's sound components  
<fingered>.  
<one finger>  
In the <one-finger>, a major chord can be played  
just by pressing the key for its root note.  
When an AUTO PLAY CHORD mode is  
selected, an automatic accompaniment which  
matches the rhythm you have chosen is played  
in the chord which you specify with your left  
hand. The melody is played with your right hand.  
The accompaniment pattern of the AUTO PLAY CHORD  
is composed of 8 parts: DRUMS 1, 2, BASS, ACCOMP  
1–5.  
Example: C chord  
The volume of each part can be adjusted with the buttons  
below the display. (Refer to page 27.)

In the <fingered>, you specify the chord by play-  
ing all the notes in the chord.

3.Press the AUTO PLAY CHORDs MODE but-  
ton to turn it on.  
The display looks similar to the following.  
PIANIST mode  
In the PIANIST mode, the entire keyboard can  
be used to specify chords <fingered>  
(ADVANCE) for the automatic accompaniment; a  
RIGHT part is assigned to all the keys, and the  
keyboard does not split.  
When specifying chords, if you press a key a perfect 5th or  
more below the lowest note of the chord, the BASS part  
becomes a pattern based on that note.  
<APC HOLD>  
4.Select an AUTO PLAY CHORD mode .  
After a few seconds, the display returns to the previous  
display.  
If the BASIC or ADVANCED mode was selected, the key-  
board automatically splits into right and left sections.  
If this function is assigned to the left pedal, for  
example, pressing the left pedal will play the cur-  
rently specified chord in that timing, allowing you  
to focus your performance on a solo melody.  
The accompaniment continues in the same chord as long  
as the PEDAL is depressed, and it does not change even if  
other chords are played.  
5.Press the START/STOP button to begin the  
rhythm.  
You can start the rhythm by playing a key on the key-  
board. (Refer to page 42.)

MEMORY  
Press the MEMORY button and select either one  
of the following:  
If the BASIC or ADVANCED mode was selected, specify  
the chord on the keyboard section to the left of the split  
point.  
ON:  
Even when removing your finger from  
the keys, the present chord is retained  
until the next chord is specified.  
An accompaniment pattern in the specified chord is auto-  
matically played. Play the melody with your right hand.  
When you use FILL IN, INTRO and ENDING, the auto-  
matic accompaniment is also used in these patterns.  
You can set the mode which determines how the LEFT  
part sounds during an AUTO PLAY CHORD perfor-  
mance. (See below.)  
In the initialized condition, when the rhythm is off, if an  
AUTO PLAY CHORD mode is on and a chord is speci-  
fied, the specified root note (R. BASS part) and chord  
notes (CHORD part) are produced. The volumes of these  
notes can be adjusted. (Refer to page 27.)  
OFF: When removing your finger, the chord  
is deleted.  
AUTO: The chord is retained when auto  
accompaniment is playing but is not  
retained when stopped.  
ON BASS  
If the ON BASS button is ON, the BASS part is  
produced in the key of the lowest note of the  
played chord, thus making it possible to play  
chords such as C on G.  
For example, with the ON BASS button on, if you play a  
C chord by pressing the keys G, C and E, the BASS part  
is produced in the key of G.  
7.To stop the automatic accompaniment, press  
the START/STOP button.

Playing the rhythm  
Use this control to lower the automatic accompaniment  
volume when it is too loud relative to your manual perfor-  
mance.  
At the MAX position, the volumes of the automatic  
accompaniment parts correspond to their current set-  
tings; at the OFF position, the volume is 0. The volume  
should normally be set to MAX.  
The set values are shown in the APC column of the vol-  
ume balance display. (Refer to page 27.)  
The volume can be adjusted for each part. (Refer to page  
27.)  
When the position of the slide control coincides with the  
actual volume, the indicator is lit. When the volume is  
changed by of the PANEL MEMORY or SEQUENCER  
playback, the actual volume differs from that indicated by  
the position of the slide control. In this case, the indicator  
is not lit.  
4.Use the ROOT buttons to select the root note  
of the chord. Use the TYPE buttons to select  
the type of chord.  
A typical way to finger the specified chord (TYPICAL) is  
illustrated on a keyboard diagram.  
Each time the INVERSION button is pressed, different  
INVERSION fingerings are illustrated in order. (If there is  
no INVERSION fingering for the specified chord, this but-  
ton is not shown on the display.)  
When the button with a picture of an ear is pressed, the  
notes of the chord sound. (The octave of the illustrated  
keys and that of the played tones may differ.)

The CHORD FINDER can help, for example,  
when you do not know which keys to press to  
specify a given chord. When you input the chord  
name, the CHORD FINDER shows you which  
keys to press and even lets you hear the notes  
that make up.

PANEL MEMORY  
A sequencer records your performance in a similar way to a tape recorder. This instrument’s  
SEQUENCER allows you to record up to 10 performances in a variety of ways. You may want to record  
your entire performance in one go (especially if you are using AUTO PLAY CHORD to provide the  
accompaniment), or to build up a complex arrangement with several different parts playing together, like  
an orchestral score. This instrument’s SEQUENCER has 16 tracks. This means that you can record 16  
different parts. However, you don’t have to use all 16 tracks. For some uses you may only need to use  
one or two tracks. This instrument’s SEQUENCER enables you to edit your recorded performance. Unlike  
a tape recorder you can change the sound or the tempo during playback, or correct wrong notes or timing  
errors.  
SEQUENCER features  
Popular features  
You can change the tempo without  
changing the pitch  
Simplified recording method  
EASY RECORD is a feature that allows you to  
bypass the more complex recording procedures  
so you can record and play back your perform-  
ance quickly and easily.  
• You can also record an accompaniment from the AUTO  
PLAY CHORD.  
When you record your performance at a slow  
tempo and play it back at a faster tempo, the  
pitch stays the same.  
Consistent sound  
Your performance is reproduced by a sound  
module as it reads digital data. So, unlike a  
recorded tape, the sound never deteriorates no  
matter how many times you play back your per-  
formance.  
Create a one-man ensemble  
Use the REALTIME RECORD function to record  
your performance in up to 16 tracks and create  
your own orchestra or band.  
Store individual data to create your song  
For repeating patterns or those especially com-  
plicated phrases, the STEP RECORD feature is  
convenient for recording the notes one-by-one.  
Edit your recorded performance  
Comprehensive editing functions allow you to  
modify your recorded performance. Data can  
easily be erased, corrected or copied, providing  
an especially convenient tool for creating your  
original tunes.  
Memory capacity  
Up to 10 songs can be stored in the  
SEQUENCER. Expressed in terms of notes, the  
total number of notes which can be stored in all  
the SEQUENCER songs and tracks is about  
40,000. The remaining memory available for  
recording is shown on the display as a percent-

your performance, or find any measure, instantly.

• When “Memory full!” appears on the display, no more  
data can be stored in the SEQUENCER.

The measure count on the display corresponds to the time signature of the selected rhythm. However,  
if rhythm data is stored in the RHYTHM part and that part is played back, the measure count on the dis-  
play corresponds to the stored rhythm data. (Refer to page 69.)  
If you wish to use a time signature not available in the preset rhythms, use the COMPOSER to create a new time signature.

Quantize  
The QUANTIZE function can correct the timing of your performance after it has been recorded. If the  
rhythm is slightly out of sync or inexact, it will automatically be corrected to the specified quantize level.  
1.On the SEQ MENU display, select RECORD  
& EDIT.  
7.Use the STRENGTH and buttons to select  
the amount of quantize (%).  
100% is a convenient setting. When set to 100%, the per-  
formance data is quantized exactly to the level specified  
for the VALUE (just). For example, at 50%, the data is  
quantized to a point that is half that of the just level. By  
this setting, you can attain an effect that is very slightly  
off-beat from the rhythm.  
2.On the RECORD & EDIT display, select  
QUANTIZE.  
The display looks similar to the following.  
8.Use the WINDOW and buttons to specify  
the range (%) affected by the quantize setting.  
With the increment set to 100 for the VALUE, at a + set-  
ting, data close to the just point is corrected, and at a –  
setting, data far from the just point is corrected. For  
example, if set to 30% the quantize function affects data  
far from the just point, and if set to +30% the quantize  
function affects data close to the just point. +100% is usu-  
ally a convenient setting.  
The +100% setting and the 100% setting are the same.

About Standard MIDI Files  
Standard MIDI File(SMF) is a standardized  
data format which makes it possible for music  
data to be exchanged among different sequenc-  
ers. Data stored in this format on sequencers of  
different models can be played back on this  
instrument, and vice versa. Note, however, that  
Standard MIDI Files ensure the compatibility of  
data such as NOTE data (keyboard performance  
data), VELOCITY (how hard the keyboard is  
played), PROGRAM NUMBER data (voice num-  
ber data), etc. Because it does not guarantee  
100% faithful reproduction of recorded music  
which is replete with such data, it may be neces-  
sary for you to adjust the settings to your satis-  
SMF with LYRICS  
SMF with LYRICS is a format in which character  
information that is included with the MIDI data,  
such as karaoke lyrics, can be displayed. This  
instrument supports this format, making it possi-  
ble to view the lyrics on the display while a per-  
formance is played back.  
faction.  
GENERAL MIDI LEVEL 2 (GM2)  
Only files with the .MIDextension can be loaded.  
Standard MIDI File FORMAT 1 can be loaded, but not  
saved.  
This instrument complies with GENERAL MIDI  
(GM) LEVEL 2 standards. GM LEVEL 2 is a uni-  
form world standard for MIDI sound generators  
that improves on existing GM standards, in order  
to realize an enhanced performance expression.  
Sound generators of this class can reproduce vir-  
tually the identical conditions that were in effect  
at the time of recording.  
This instruments SEQUENCER data can be saved to a  
disk in Standard MIDI File (FORMAT 0) and can be used  
by other equipment.  
Equipment which conforms to GENERAL MIDI  
LEVEL 2 standards is indicated by the following  
logo.  
This instrument also conforms to GENERAL MIDI play-

SOUND EDIT enables you to create your own new sound by altering one of the this instrument’s preset  
sounds. Your new sound can be stored in one of the sound memory locations. SOUND EDIT has two  
methods of use. You can edit in detail using functions more commonly associated with a synthesizer, or  
you can use EASY EDIT which allows you to change some basic parameters on one page.

Part XI MIDI  
What is MIDI?  
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is the international standard for digital communication of elec-  
tronic musical instrument data. This means that any equipment which has a MIDI terminal—such as elec-  
tronic musical instruments and personal computers—can easily exchange digital data with other MIDI  
equipment without resorting to complicated conversions or connections.  
MIDI terminals  
(On the rear panel)  
IN:  
The terminal by which this instrument receives  
data from other equipment.  
OUT:  
MIDI  
OUT  
IN  
The terminal that transmits data from this  
instrument to other equipment.  
• For these connections, use a commercially available  
MIDI cable.

MIDI channels  
Many different kinds of performance data are  
sent using just one MIDI cable. This is possible  
because MIDI signals are sent and received  
through 16 different “basic channels” (numbered  
1 to 16). In order for the exchange of data to take  
place, the channels on the transmission side  
must match the channels on the receiving side.  
This characteristic also makes it possible to link  
multiple sound generators and to control each by  
matching specific channels.

Part XI  
MIDI  
The following kinds of data can be transmitted/received.  
NOTE data  
PROGRAM CHANGE  
This is the most basic kind of MIDI data which is  
exchanged, and is used to specify which keys  
are played and how hard they are played.  
This is sound change data. When a different  
sound is selected on the transmitting instrument,  
the sound on the receiving instrument also  
changes.  
NOTE NUMBER: Number specifying which key  
is played.  
NOTE ON: Specifies that a key is played.  
NOTE OFF: Specifies that a key is released.  
VELOCITY: Specifies how hard a key is struck.  
CONTROL CHANGE  
These are volume, sustain, effect, etc. data used  
to enhance performance expression. Each func-  
tion is distinguished by its control number, and  
the function which can be changed by the control  
differs depending on the instrument.  
MIDI notes are assigned numbers from 0 to 127, with  
middle C (C3) as 60. Note pitches are in semitone incre-  
ments, with the higher numbers assigned to the higher  
pitches.  
EXCLUSIVE data  
This is data that is specific to this instrument, and  
data for the GENERAL MIDI LEVEL 2 mode set-  
ting.
