you years of playing pleasure if you follow the simple rules given below: ■ Location Do not expose the instrument to the following conditions to avoid deformation, discoloration, or more serious damage. • Direct sunlight (e.g. near a window). • High temperatures (e.g. near a heat source, outside, or in a car during the daytime). • Excessive humidity. • Excessive dust. • Strong vibration. ■ Power Supply • Turn the power switch OFF when the instrument is not in use. • The power cord should be unplugged from the AC outlet if the instrument is not to be used for an extended period of time. • Unplug the instrument during electric storms. • Avoid plugging the instrument into the same AC outlet as appliances with high power consumption, such as electric heaters or ovens. Also avoid using multi-plug adaptors since these can result in reduced sound quality and possibly damage. ■ Turn Power OFF When Making Connections • To avoid damage to the instrument and other devices to which it is connected (a sound system, for example), turn the power switches of all related devices OFF prior to connecting or disconnecting audio and MIDI cables. ■ Handling and Transport • Never apply excessive force to the controls, connectors or other parts of the instrument. • Always unplug cables by gripping the plug firmly, not by pulling on the cable. • Disconnect all cables before moving the instrument. • Physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping, or placing heavy objects on the instrument can result in scratches and more serious damage. ■ Cleaning • Clean the cabinet and panel with a dry soft cloth. • A slightly damp cloth may be used to remove stubborn grime and dirt. • Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner. • Avoid placing vinyl objects on top of the instrument (vinyl can stick to and discolor the surface). ■ Electrical Interference • This instrument contains digital circuitry and may cause interference if placed too close to radio or television receivers. If this occurs, move the instrument further away from the affected equipment. ■ Service and Modification • The PSR-1700/PSR-2700 contains no user serviceable parts. Opening it or tampering with it in anyway can lead to irreparable damage and possibly electric shock. Refer all servicing to qualified YAMAHA personnel. ■ Data Backup • Internal data (e.g. Song Memory data) is retained in memory even if the power switch is turned off as long as backup batteries are installed (page 5) or the AC plug is connected. The internal memory can, however, be corrupted by incorrect operation. Be sure to save important data to floppy disk frequently so you have a backup to revert to if the data in memory is accidentally damaged. Also note that magnetic fields can damage data on floppy disks, so it is advisable to make a second backup copy of disks that contain particularly important data. Always keep backup disks in a safe place away from stray magnetic fields (e.g. those produced by speakers, appliances containing motors, etc.). More important precautions for floppy disk use are given in the “Floppy Disk” section beginning on page 56. YAMAHA is not responsible for damage caused by improper handling or operation. 4 ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Preparation This section contains information about setting up your PSR-1700 or PSR-2700 and preparing to play. Be sure to go through this section carefully before using your PSR-1700/PSR-2700. HEADPHONES R AUX OUT L+R/L PEDAL 2 1 ■ Power Supply After making sure that the AC mains voltage and frequency specified for your PSR-1700/PSR-2700 matches your local power supply (check the label on the bottom panel), plug the power cord into a convenient AC outlet. CAUTION CAUTION THRU MIDI OUT RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN IN AVIS: RISQUE DE CHOC ELECTRIQUE NE PAS OUVRIR. WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. • Never interrupt the power supply (e.g. unplug the power cord) during any record or disk operation! Doing so can result in a loss of data. ■ Installing the Backup Batteries For memory backup the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 requires four 1.5V SUM-3, “AA” size, R-6 or equivalent batteries. All PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 features will operate without these batteries installed, but song memory and other data that is not saved to disk will be lost when then power is turned off. To prevent accidental loss of data, we recommend that a set of backup batteries be installed while the instrument is in regular use. When the backup batteries need to be replaced “Backup Battery Low” will appear on the LCD display panel when the power is initially turned on (this also occurs if no backup batteries are installed). Try to replace the batteries before they fail and the backup memory contents are lost. Z Open the battery compartment cover located on the instrument’s bottom panel. XInsert the four new batteries, being careful to follow the polarity markings on the inside of the compartment. C Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it locks firmly in place. CAUTION • When the batteries run down, replace them with a complete set of four new batteries. NEVER mix old and new batteries. • Do not use different kinds of batteries (e.g. alkaline and manganese) at the same time. • To prevent possible damage due to battery leakage, remove the batteries from the instrument if it is not to be used for an extended period of time. • When you replace the batteries, any backed-up data will be lost. To avoid this, be sure to save your valuable data to a floppy disk before replacing the batteries. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 5 Preparation ■ Using Headphones A standard pair of stereo headphones can be plugged into the rear-panel HEADPHONES jack for private practice or late-night playing. The internal speaker system is automatically shut off when a pair of headphones is plugged into the HEADPHONES jack. HEADPHONES ■ Connecting to an External Sound System R AUX OUT L+R/L The AUX OUT L+R/L and R jacks deliver the output of the PSR-1700/ PSR-2700 for connection to an instrument amplifier, mixing console, PA system, or recording equipment. If you will be connecting the PSR-1700/ PSR-2700 to a monophonic sound system, use only the L+R/L jack. When a plug is inserted into the L+R/L jack only, the left- and right-channel signals are combined and delivered via the L+R/L jack so you don’t lose any of the instrument’s sound. Stereo sound system ■ Using Pedals PEDAL 2 (FC7) 1 (FC5) An optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitch or FC7 foot controller can be plugged into either or both of the rear-panel PEDAL jacks. The PEDAL 1 jack is initially assigned to sustain control. A footswitch connected to this jack functions as a damper pedal, controlling sustain. Press the pedal to sustain notes after the keys are released. The PEDAL 2 jack is initially assigned to the voice volume control (MIDI Expression control). An FC7 foot controller connected to this jack can be used to control voice volume: press the pedal forward to increase voice volume; backward to decrease voice volume. Both the PEDAL jacks can be assigned to a wide range of other functions as described in the “Pedal Assign” section on page 72. ■ The Music Stand Insert the bottom edge of the music stand into the slot located at the rear of the control panel. 6 ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Listen to the Demo! Once you’ve set up your PSR-1700/PSR-2700, try listening to the pre-programmed demonstration songs — they’ll give you a good idea of what the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 can do! DEMO SONG # ON/ OFF MIN POWER MAX MASTER VOLUME START/STOP ZTurn the Power ON & Set the Volume ..................................................................................................

START/STOP MINUS ONE QUICK PLAY ■ Try the Disk Demo, Too! The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 also come supplied with demonstration floppy disks that you can play as follows: NOTES • The PSR-1700 comes with one demonstration disk containing 4 demonstration songs, while the PSR-2700 includes an additional disk containing 2 demo songs that make use of the PSR-2700’s Digital Sampling feature. ZInsert the Demo Disk .............................................................................................................................. Insert demonstration disk into the disk drive unit with the sliding door facing the drive slot and the label side of the disk facing upward. The disk should click securely into place. XStart Playback ......................................................................................................................................... START/STOP MINUS ONE QUICK PLAY Press the QUICK PLAY [START/STOP] button to start playback. The disk demo songs will play back in sequence. NOTES CAUTION • If the demo requires sampled voice data included in the disk (PSR-2700 only) the sampled voice data will automatically be loaded into sampled voice number 128 before demo playback begins. If there is already sampled voice data in memory or the wave RAM is full, the disk may not load automatically. See page 60 for details. • If you simply press the QUICK PLAY [START/STOP] button playback will begin from the lowest file number on the disk. It is also possible to specify the file number from which playback is to begin prior to pressing the [START/STOP] button. • Never attempt to eject the demonstration disk(s) or turn the power off during demo playback. Doing so can damage both the disk drive and the disk. CStop the Demo & Eject the Disk ............................................................................................................ START/STOP MINUS ONE QUICK PLAY 8 When you’re ready to stop the demo, press the QUICK PLAY [START/ STOP] button to stop playback, then press the disk drive eject button and remove the disk. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Basic Editing Procedure The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 feature a flexible-but-consistent interface that lets you edit just about all of its parameters using the same basic procedure. Once familiar with the system, you’ll be able to edit any parameter quickly and easily. Here’s the basic procedure: – + 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 +– 1_ _ RESET ZPress a Function Button ........................................................................................................................ First press the button corresponding to the function or parameter you want to edit. To select voice numbers, for example, press the [VOICE SELECT] button (its indicator will light). The name of the selected parameter and its current value will be shown on the LCD display panel. VOICE SELECT ● The LCD Display Panel The PSR-2700 and PSR-1700 feature backlit LCD display panels that make it easy to select and edit parameters as well as perform all other operations. The PSR-2700 display has two lines of 24 characters each, while the PSR1700 has one line of 16 characters. KEYBOARD PERCUSSION PSR-2700 STYLE VOICE 08:Showtune 001:GrandPno AccOff VCE=00 – 1:GrandPno CHORD PARAMETER & VALUE PSR-1700 VCE=00 – 1:GrandPno The PSR-2700 display has four sections: STYLE, VOICE, CHORD, and PARAMETER & VALUE. The STYLE and VOICE sections on the upper line always show the currently selected accompaniment style and voice. The CHORD section on the lower line shows the detected chord when the Auto Accompaniment feature is used, and the PARAMETER & VALUE section shows the parameter and value currently selected for editing. The PSR-1700 display always shows the parameter and value currently selected for editing. NOTES • “Now Processing” may appear on the LCD display panel while the PSR1700/PSR-2700 is processing the data (for example recorded data) or ready to process it. XEdit the Parameter .................................................................................................................................. The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 let you edit parameters using four different methods. Use the one that best suits the parameter you have selected: 2-1: The Function Button VOICE SELECT KEYBOARD PERCUSSION Each time you press a function button after initially selecting the function, the value of the corresponding parameter will be incremented (increased) by one. If you hold the function button for a few seconds, the parameter will begin to increment continuously as long as you hold the button. If, for example, you press the [VOICE SELECT] button and LCD display panel shows that voice number 36 (VCE=036:Fretless) is currently selected, you can select voice number 37 (VCE=037:SlapBas1) simply by pressing the [VOICE SELECT] button again. NOTES • The SPLIT POINT button, MAPPING button (PSR-2700), and PITCH button (PSR-2700) are exceptions. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 9 Basic Editing Procedure 2-2: The [+] and [−] Buttons – + RESET 2-3: The Number Buttons 0 1 7 2 8 3 4 9 +– 1_ _ 2 The number buttons — to the right of the [+] and [–] buttons — allow direct numeric entry of the desired value, and are therefore the fastest way to edit in many situations. To select a voice, for example, choose one of the 128 voices — numbered “01” through “128” — listed in the “Voice & Polyphony List” on page 77, then enter its number using the number buttons. To select “Harmonica” (number 23), for example, first press [2] then [3]. The number “23” should then appear on the LCD display panel along with the name “Harmnica”. The [+/–] button is used to switch between positive and negative values with parameters that allow negative values (Transpose, Tuning, Octave, and Pan, for example). A “–” appears before negative values on the LCD display panel. Example: Voice number “120” +– 1_ _ The [+] and [–] buttons can be used to increment (increase by one) or decrement (decrease by one) the currently selected parameter. Press the [+] button briefly to increment the parameter value, or the [–] button to decrement. If you hold the [+] or [–] button down, the value will increment or decrement continuously — simply release the button when the desired value has been reached. 0 When selecting voice numbers the [+/–] button is used to enter the hundreds digit of the voice number (the button alternately selects no hundreds digit or “1”), as required, prior to entering the tens and ones digits. The [1] number button cannot be used to enter the hundreds digit when selecting voices. Values outside the range of the selected parameter can not be entered. 2-4: The Data Dial This is undoubtedly the easiest way to edit most parameters. Simply rotate the dial clockwise to increment or counter-clockwise to decrement. NOTES • After editing a parameter other than [VOICE SELECT], the [VOICE SELECT] parameter will automatically be re-selected after a brief delay. • If you attempt to change a parameter that can not be edited in the current mode, “IllegalOperation” will appear on the LCD display. ● Yes/No Confirmation YES ARE YOU SURE ? 10 NO Some operations that change important settings or erase data may require you to confirm your choice by pressing the [YES] or [NO] button. When a choice needs to be confirmed the ARE YOU SURE? indicator will flash and a digitally sampled voice will ask “Are you sure?”. Press the [YES] button to execute the specified operation or the [NO] button to cancel and leave the settings or data unaffected. If you don’t want to hear the “Are you sure?” confirmation sound, hold down the [NO] button while initially turning the power switch on. To restore the confirmation sound, turn the power switch off, then turn it back on again while holding down the [YES] button. The on/off status of the confirmation sound is retained in memory even when the power switch is turned off as long as the backup batteries are installed or an AC plug is connected. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Selecting & Playing the Voices PSR-1700 The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 have 128 stunning voices plus 8 different drum and percussion kits that you can select and play in a number of ways. VOICE SELECT VOICE VOL OCTAVE DSP DEPTH PAN ORCHESTRATION L1 HARMONY TYPE EFFECT TYPE R1 EDIT L2 KEYBOARD PERCUSSION R2 ONE TOUCH SETTING HARMONY EFFECT PSR-2700 VOICE SELECT VOICE VOL OCTAVE DSP DEPTH PAN ORCHESTRATION L1 HARMONY TYPE EFFECT TYPE R1 EDIT MODULATION PITCH BEND L2 SAMPLED KEYBOARD PERCUSSION VOICE ONE TOUCH SETTING R2 HARMONY EFFECT ■ Orchestration The unique ORCHESTRATION button group in the VOICE control section lets you select and play from one to four “parts” at the same time using a variety of “orchestrations”. One of the 128 voices is assigned to each part. ● Single: One voice over the entire keyboard. ● Dual: Two voices simultaneously over the entire keyboard. ● Split: Different voices with the left and right hands. ● Split & Dual: Combinations of the Split and Dual modes. There are actually a number of variations on each of the above orchestrations. The ORCHESTRATION buttons are used to choose the type of orchestration you want. Right-hand voice 1 (or single voice) Left-hand voice 1 ORCHESTRATION L1 R1 EDIT L2 Left-hand voice 2 R2 Right-hand voice 2 (or single voice) The four available parts are turned on and off by the [R1], [R2], [L1], and [L2] buttons. The indicators next to each of these buttons tell you which parts are on and which are off, and therefore indicate the current orchestration mode. The [EDIT] button determines which of the four orchestration parts is to be edited. You can, for example, assign any of the 128 voices to each of the orchestration parts. But before we discuss voice assignment and editing, let’s take a look at the various orchestration modes: ● Single Modes In the “single” modes either the [R1] or [R2] part voice can be played over the entire keyboard. The R1 and R2 single-voice modes are selected simply by pressing either the [R1] or [R2] button if neither the [L1] or [L2] indicators are lit. If the [L1] and/or [L2] indicators are lit, press them so that both indicators go out. Note that when you select the [R1] or [R2] singlevoice mode, the triangular EDIT indicator for the selected voice also lights. This means you can select a different voice number or otherwise edit the current voice using the procedures described on page 13. L1 R1 EDIT L2 R2 L1 The R1 voice is played across the entire keyboard. R1 EDIT L2 R2 The R2 voice is played across the entire keyboard. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 11 Selecting & Playing the Voices ● Dual Mode ● Split & Dual Modes In the dual mode both the [R1] and [R2] part voices are selected so they can be played simultaneously across the entire keyboard. To select the dual mode, make sure that both the [L1] and [L2] indicators are out, then press both the [R1] and [R2] buttons simultaneously (or hold one while pressing the other). You can switch back to either of the single modes from the dual mode simply by pressing the [R1] or [R2] button, as required. L1 There are five possible combinations of the split and dual modes, as shown below. The part for the single-voice side of the combination is selected simply by pressing the appropriate part button, while for the dual-voice side both buttons must be pressed simultaneously (or one while holding the other). ▼ L1 R1 EDIT L2 R2 L1 R1 L1 voice. R1 & R2 voices. R1 ▼ EDIT L2 R2 The R1 & R2 voices are played across the entire keyboard. EDIT L2 R2 L1 R1 R1 & R2 voices.

RESET The Harmony Types 01: Duet 16 This harmony type produces a duophonic melody with the second voice below the melody line. If you turn both the R1 and R2 voices on (DUAL mode) the notes you play on the keyboard will be played by the R1 voice, and the harmony notes by the R2 voice. You can individually set the R1 and R2 voices and voice parameters as required. 02: 1 + 5 A parallel voice is produced a fifth above the melody voice. As in the Duet type, the R1 and R2 voices can be set individually in the dual mode. 03: Country Similar to Duet, but the second voice is above the melody line. The R1 and R2 voices can be set individually in the dual mode. 04: Trio This harmony type generates two voices in addition to the melody voice. Both of the harmony voices are assigned to R2 in the dual mode. 05: Block Three or four notes are added to the melody to produce four or five-note chords. In the dual mode the highest and lowest voices (always one octave apart) are assigned to R1, and the inner two or three notes are assigned to R2. 06: 4-way close 1 Three harmony notes are generated to produce a four-note chord. If both the R1 and R2 voices are turned on (dual mode), the 1st (melody) and 3rd notes are assigned to R1 while the 2nd and 4th are assigned to R2. 07: 4-way close 2 Similar to the preceding type, but depending on the chords played this type will sometimes produce a more colorful sound. The note assignment in the dual mode is also different: 1st and 2nd notes to R1, 3rd and 4th notes to R2. 08: 4-way open Four-note chords with open voice (large intervals between the notes). The result is a very “open” sound. Since the harmony notes can be as much as two octaves below the melody, avoid playing in the lower registers. With certain voices you might find that changing the octave (see “Octave” on page 14) results in better sound. In the dual mode the top (melody) note is assigned to R1 and all three harmony notes are assigned to R2. 09: Octave One note is added an octave below the melody. In the dual mode the melody is assigned to R1 and the lower note to R2. 10: Strum The notes and assignments are the same as in the Block type, but the notes are arpeggiated. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| VTurn Auto Harmony ON or OFF as Required .......................................................................................

(1) - 3 - #5 - b7 Suspended fourth [sus4] ........................................... 1 - 4 - 5 One plus two plus five [1+2+5] .................................. 1 - 2 - 5 NOTES • Notes in parentheses can be omitted. • A perfect fifth (1+5) produces accompaniment based only on the root and fifth which can be used with many major and minor chords. • An octave (1+8) produces accompaniment based only on the root. • If three adjacent keys are played simultaneously (white and black keys), chord accompaniment will be cancelled and only the rhythm accompaniment will sound. (Chord 1/Chord 2 mode) * 6 9 chords are only recognized in root position. All other inversions are interpreted as m11. * m6 chords are only recognized in root position. All other inversions are interpreted as m7b5. * 1+2+5 chords are only recognized in root position. All other inversions are interpreted as sus4. * With aug and dim7 chords the lowest note played is assumed to be the root. * With 7#11 chords the lowest note played is assumed to be the root or b7. • The chord fingerings listed are all in “root position”, but other inversions can be used — with the following exceptions: * M6 chords are only recognized in root position. All other inversions are interpreted as m7. 26 ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ● Mode 2: Chord 2 PSR-1700 Fingrng=2 – :Chord2 PSR-2700 This is essentially the same as the Chord 1 mode, above, except that the lowest note played in the Auto Accompaniment section of the keyboard will be played by the bass part rather than the chord root. C C on E C on G 08:Showtune 001:GrandPno C Fingrng=2 – :Chord2 ● Mode 3: Single PSR-1700 Fingrng=3 – :Single PSR-2700 08:Showtune 001:GrandPno C Fingrng=3 – :Single C Cm C7 SINGLE mode fingering makes it simple to produce beautifully orchestrated accompaniment using major, seventh, minor and minorseventh chords by pressing a minimum number of keys in the Auto Accompaniment section of the keyboard. The accompaniment produced is perfectly matched to the currently selected accompaniment style. Major Chords: If you press a “C” key in the left-hand section of the keyboard, for example, a C-major accompaniment will be played. Press another key in the left-hand section of the keyboard to select a new chord. The key you press will always determine the “root” of the chord played (i.e. “C” for a C chord). Minor Chords: Simultaneously press the root key and a black key to its left. Seventh Chords: Simultaneously press the root key and a white key to its left. Cm7 Minor-seventh Chords: Simultaneously press the root key and both a white and black key to its left. NOTES ● Mode 4: Multi PSR-1700 Fingrng=4 – :Multi PSR-2700 08:Showtune 001:GrandPno C Fingrng=4 – :Multi • The Auto Accompaniment will continue playing even if you lift your fingers from the Auto Accompaniment keys. You only need to press the Auto Accompaniment keys when changing chords. This is a combination of the Single and Chord 1 modes. In this mode the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 automatically discriminates between Single and Chord 1 mode fingerings and generates the appropriate accompaniment. NOTES • If more than two keys are played and all but the highest key are black keys, and the chord is not recognized by the Chord 1 mode, the highest note will be interpreted as the root of a minor (m) chord. • If more than three keys are played and, excluding the highest key, are a mixture of black and white keys, and the chord is not recognized by the Chord 1 mode, the highest note will be interpreted as the root of a minor-seventh (m7) chord. • If more than two keys are played and all but the highest key are white keys, and the chord is not recognized by the Chord 1 mode, the highest note will be interpreted as the root of a seventh (7) chord. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 27 Auto Accompaniment ● Mode 5: Full PSR-1700 Fingrng=5 –:Full PSR-2700 08:Showtune 001:GrandPno C Fingrng=5 – :Full In this mode chords played anywhere on the keyboard are detected and used for Auto Accompaniment. Otherwise the keyboard functions normally, and the entire range is available for playing. Chord recognition is the same as in the Chord 1 mode. Please note that in this mode all notes you play on the keyboard at any one time will be interpreted as the Auto Accompaniment chord. NOTES Playing Chords When the Accompaniment is Stopped • A single note played more than one octave below the lowest note in a chord will be interpreted as a bass note, and notes played more than an 11th above the lowest chord note will be interpreted as melody. Chords played in the Auto Accompaniment section of the keyboard are also detected and played by the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 Auto Accompaniment system when the accompaniment is stopped (except in the Full fingering mode). In this case the bass note and chord voices are selected automatically. ■ Tempo Control The [TEMPO] button can be used to control the tempo of AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT, SONG MEMORY and MULTI PAD playback (see pages 43 and 46). ZPress the [TEMPO] Button..................................................................................................................... Press the OVERALL CONTROL section [TEMPO] button. The current tempo (quarter-note beats per minute) will appear on the LCD display panel. TEMPO PSR-1700 Tempo œ=1 – 28 PSR-2700 08:Showtune 001:GrandPno C Tempo œ=1 – 28 METRONOME XSet the Tempo ......................................................................................................................................... – + 0 1 2 Use the [+] and [–] buttons, the number buttons, the data dial, or the [TEMPO] button itself to set the desired tempo. Each accompaniment style has a different “default” tempo which is automatically set whenever a new style is selected (but not when a new style is selected while the accompaniment is playing). The default tempo for the currently selected accompaniment style can be recalled instantly by pressing both the [+] and [–] buttons at the same time. RESET ● The [METRONOME] Button TEMPO The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 include a metronome function that you’ll use primarily with the recording functions described on page 39. If you press the [METRONOME] button so that its indicator lights when using Auto Accompaniment, the metronome will sound at the currently set tempo when the synchro-start mode is engaged, and while the accompaniment is playing. METRONOME 28 ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ■ Accompaniment Control The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 provide a range of accompaniment “sections” — introduction, fill-ins, break, variations on the main pattern, ending — that you can select to control the “flow” of the accompaniment to achieve the desired musical results. Accompaniment start/stop and sections are controlled by the ACCOMPANIMENT CONTROL buttons. ● Straight Start ........................................................................................................................................... The [START/STOP] button starts the selected accompaniment style immediately. Press the [AUTO ACCOMP] button so that its indicator lights before starting the accompaniment. The accompaniment will start with the rhythm sound only when the [START/STOP] button is pressed, then the bass and chord parts will begin playing as soon as the first note or chord is played on the Auto Accompaniment section of the keyboard. STYLE SELECT AUTO ACCOMP NOTES START/STOP 4/4 time 1st beat 2nd beat 3rd beat 4th beat BEAT 3/4 time 1st beat 2nd beat 3rd beat BEAT • A different accompaniment style can be selected at any time while the accompaniment is playing. The style number and name on the LCD display panel will change as soon as the selection is made, but the new style will begin playback from the top of the next measure. The only exception is if you change styles while an intro is playing (see page 30), in which case the new style begin playing after the intro has finished. The tempo will not change when the new style begins playing. The Beat Indicator The four BEAT indicator LEDs located above the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT control section flash to indicate the tempo and beat as the accompaniment plays. The LEDs flash individually in sequence on each beat of the measure. In 4/4, 3/4, and 6/8 time, for example, the beat indicator LEDs will flash as shown to the left. NOTES 6/8 time 1st beat 2nd beat 3rd beat 4th beat 5th beat 6th beat • Each accompaniment style has a preset “normal” tempo which is automatically selected whenever the style is selected while the accompaniment is stopped. The current tempo is maintained if you select a different style during accompaniment playback (except when the One Touch Setting function is used — page 36). You can change the tempo as required by using the TEMPO function described on page 28. BEAT ● Synchro Start .......................................................................................................................................... SYNC-START/STOP Press the [SYNC-START/STOP] button if you want the accompaniment to start when you play the first note or chord on the keyboard. In this case the accompaniment is started by playing in the left-hand section of the keyboard. NOTES • If the AUTO ACCOMP mode is OFF, playing anywhere on the keyboard causes the rhythm-only accompaniment to start. If you press the [SYNC-START/STOP] button, the BEAT indicator LEDs will flash at the current tempo. The synchro start mode can be disengaged by pressing the [SYNC-START/STOP] button again so that its indicator goes out. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 29 Auto Accompaniment ● Starting the Accompaniment with an Introduction ............................................................................. Any of the accompaniment styles can be started with an appropriate introduction by pressing the [INTRO] button and then the [START/STOP] button. If you press the [SYNC-START/STOP] button and then the [INTRO] button, the accompaniment will start from the introduction as soon as a chord is detected in the Auto Accompaniment section of the keyboard. INTRO VARIATION INTRO A B Once the [INTRO] button is pressed, the [INTRO] indicator will be lit continuously and the VARIATION [A] or [B] indicator will flash to indicate which section will play when the introduction has finished. You can change the “destination” section by pressing the VARIATION [A] or [B] button while its indicator is flashing. When the introduction ends, the [INTRO] indicator will go out and the [A] or [B] indicator will light continuously. The introductions for the VARIATION [A] and [B] sections are different. The A intro has no chord progression while the B intro has its own chord progression. The actual format of the intro, however, depends on the selected style. Although it is generally not advisable to change chords manually while the B intro is playing, the A intro has no progression of its own so you can play your own chords as required. NOTES • It is possible to start the accompaniment from any section — even the ending — by pressing the corresponding button prior to pressing the [START/STOP] button. The destination MAIN [A] or [B] section can be selected as described above. • The [INTRO] button can be used to select the introduction pattern even while the accompaniment is playing. ● The Main [A] and [B] Sections ............................................................................................................... VARIATION A B Each accompaniment style has two main sections — [A] and [B]. These are variations of the same musical style. If the VARIATION [A] or [B] button is pressed while the accompaniment is playing, the corresponding section will begin from the top of the next measure. You can also select [A] or [B] before starting the accompaniment. NOTES • The Main [A] section is automatically selected whenever the power switch is turned on (the VARIATION [A] indicator will be lit). ● Adding Fill-ins & Breaks ........................................................................................................................ FILL IN 1 FILL IN 2 BREAK 30 The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 provide two types of fill-ins that can be used as musical transitions between sections of a song or simply to add variety where required. Press the [FILL IN 1] button at any time while the accompaniment is playing to add a one-measure fill-in and or return to the current MAIN section, or press the [FILL IN 2] button to add a one-measure fill-in and go to the other MAIN section. Although there are two FILL IN buttons there are actually four fill-ins per style: FILL IN 1 for the MAIN [A] section, FILL IN 1 for the MAIN [B] section, FILL IN 2 for the transition MAIN [A] to [B], and FILL IN 2 for the transition MAIN [B] to [A]. While the fill-ins are one measure long, the BREAK is two measures. The first measure is similar to a fill-in while the second measure is an actual rhythmic break — a thinner arrangement with drums and percussion predominating. Like the fill-ins, there are actually two BREAK patterns — one for the MAIN [A] section and one for the MAIN [B] section. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| FILL IN 1 FILL IN 2 If the MAIN A section is playing, for example, the [A] indicator will flash while FILL IN 1 or the BREAK plays, and the [B] indicator will flash while FILL IN 2 plays. You can change the section that will begin playing after the selected fill-in or break by pressing the desired section button while the indicator is still flashing. VARIATION BREAK A B NOTES • If you hold the [FILL IN 1], [FILL IN 2] or [BREAK] button, the fill-in or second measure of the break pattern will repeat until the button is released, then the MAIN A or B section will play from the beginning of the next measure. • If the [FILL IN 1], [FILL IN 2] or [BREAK] button is pressed after the last beat of a measure, the fill-in or break will begin from the first beat of the next measure. If pressed at any other time the fill-in or break will begin immediately. • It is also possible to start the accompaniment with a fill-in or break by pressing the desired fill-in or break button prior to pressing the [START/STOP] button. The destination MAIN [A] or [B] section can be selected in the normal way. ● Stopping the Accompaniment ............................................................................................................... SYNC-START/STOP START/STOP ENDING An accompaniment in progress can be stopped immediately by pressing the [START/STOP] button or the [SYNC-START/STOP] button. In the latter case the synchro start mode will be engaged when the accompaniment stops. The accompaniment can also be stopped with an appropriate ending by pressing the [ENDING] button. The endings for the MAIN [A] and [B] sections are different. The A ending has no chord progression while the B ending has its own chord progression. The actual format of the ending, however, depends on the selected style. NOTES • The ending will begin from the first beat of the next measure. • If the [FILL IN 1], [FILL IN 2], or [BREAK] button is pressed while the ending pattern is playing, a fill-in or break will be played, followed by a return to the MAIN A or B pattern.

The [FADE IN/OUT] button can be used to produce smooth accompaniment and melody fade-ins or fadeouts. FADE IN / OUT FADE IN/OUT FADE IN/OUT Fade-out to stop the accompaniment during Playback Press the [FADE-IN/OUT] button during accompaniment playback to fade out the accompaniment and melody sound. The [FADE-IN/OUT] button indicator will flash during the fade-out, and will go out when the fade-out is complete. FADE IN/OUT FADE IN/OUT Start Playback with a Fade-in You can start the accompaniment with a fade-in by pressing the [FADE-IN/OUT] button before starting playback. The [FADE-IN/ OUT] button indicator will light continuously until the accompaniment is started. The fade-in will begin automatically as soon as the accompaniment is started. The [FADE-IN/OUT] button indicator will flash during the fade-in, and will go out when the fade-in is complete. ■ Accompaniment Volume While the VOICE control section [VOL] button can be used to set the volume levels of the orchestration parts, the [ACCOMP VOLUME] button can be used to adjust the volume of the selected accompaniment in relation to the voices. ZPress the [ACCOMP VOLUME] Button ................................................................................................. Press the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT control section [ACCOMP VOLUME] button. The current accompaniment volume value will appear on the LCD display panel. ACCOMP VOLUME PSR-1700 Accomp.Volume=2 –1 PSR-2700 08:Showtune 001:GrandPno C Accomp.Volume=2 –1 XSet the Volume ....................................................................................................................................... – + RESET 32 0 1 2 Use the [+] and [–] buttons, the number buttons, the data dial, or the [ACCOMP VOLUME] button itself to set the desired volume. The volume range is from 00 (no sound) to 24 (maximum volume). The default volume value (21) can be recalled instantly by pressing both the [+] and [–] buttons at the same time. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ■ The Track Buttons RHYTHM 1 2 BASS RHYTHMIC CHORD 1 2 PAD CHORD PHRASE 1 2 TRACK The Auto Accompaniment system includes eight TRACK buttons which allow you to control the accompaniment arrangement in real time. You can turn tracks on or off while playing for extra accompaniment variety. The various tracks are turned on or off by pressing the corresponding TRACK button. When a part is turned off the corresponding indicator will go out. To silence the bass part, for example, press the TRACK [BASS] button so that its indicator goes out. Press the button again to turn that part back on. NOTES • The indicators for all tracks that contain data in any section will light whenever an accompaniment style is selected. (Depending on the selected accompaniment style, some tracks may not contain any data.) ● What’s In the Tracks............................................................................................................................... Here’s how the tracks are normally used: RHYTHM 1: This is the main rhythm track, and usually plays a drum kit. RHYTHM 2: Additional rhythm. Turning the RHYTHM 2 track ON will usually increase the “energy” of the rhythm. In many styles this track plays percussion instruments such as congas, bongos, etc. This means you can turn off the RHYTHM 1 track and use only RHYTHM 2 for a “light” rhythm sound. BASS: RHYTHMIC CHORD 1 & 2: PAD CHORD: PHRASE 1 & 2: The BASS track always plays a bass line, but the voice will change to fit the selected style … acoustic bass, synth bass, tuba, etc. Both these tracks provide the rhythmic chordal accompaniment required by each style. You’ll find guitar, piano, and other chordal instruments here. This track plays long chords where necessary, using sustained instruments such as strings, organ, choir. This is where the musical embellishments reside. The PHRASE tracks are used for punchy brass stabs, arpeggiated chords, and other extras that make the accompaniment more interesting. Try different combinations of tracks with each style. Some styles will sound best with the full arrangement (all tracks ON), while others might suit your needs better if a smaller arrangement is used. To “thin out” an arrangement, the PHRASE 1 and PHRASE 2 tracks are the first ones you’ll want to turn OFF. Another way to use the tracks is to gradually build up the arrangement during the course of a song. Start with a small arrangement — e.g. RHYTHM 1, BASS, and RHYTHMIC CHORD 1 — then add tracks one by one as you want to thicken the musical texture. Some styles will actually sound quite different depending on the combination of tracks you choose. Try, for example, just RHYTHM 1, BASS, and PAD CHORD. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 33 Auto Accompaniment ■ Re-voicing the Tracks To make the TRACK buttons even more versatile, the PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 feature a REVOICE function that lets you individually change the voices and several related VOICE section parameters assigned to each track. The parameters that can be changed using the REVOICE function are as follows: • Voice Number (Percussion Kit, Sampled Voice Number (PSR-2700)) • Volume • Pan • DSP Depth • Octave ZSelect a Track to Re-voice ..................................................................................................................... RHYTHM 1 2 RHYTHMIC CHORD 1 2 BASS REVOICE TRACK Press the TRACK button corresponding to the track you want to re-voice while holding the [REVOICE] button. Both the selected TRACK and [REVOICE] button indicators will flash. At the same time, the number of the voice currently assigned to the selected track will appear on the LCD display panel. PSR-1700 PSR-2700 VCE=03 – 4:FngrBass NOTES 08:Showtune 034:FngrBass C VCE=03 – 4:FngrBass • At this point you can play the selected track’s voice on the keyboard. • Keyboard percussion is automatically turned on if the RHYTHM 1 or 2 track is selected.

If you want to keep a re-voiced setup so that it can be easily recalled later, store it in the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 REGISTRATION MEMORY, described on page 37. • As long as you don’t change styles while the REVOICE function is OFF, the re-voiced settings are maintained and can be recalled at any time simply by turning the REVOICE function ON. • If you change styles while the REVOICE function is engaged, the revoiced settings will be maintained. • In some cases it may not be possible to re-voice a Custom Accompaniment during accompaniment playback. If this problem occurs, try revoicing the style while the accompaniment is stopped. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 35 One Touch Setting Each accompaniment style has a suitable preset voice and other settings that can be instantly recalled by pressing the [ONE TOUCH SETTING] button in the VOICE control section. This makes it simple to recall the optimum settings for each style in one quick operation. To use the One Touch Setting function: select a style, press the [ONE TOUCH SETTING] button so that its indicator lights, then play. As long as the [ONE TOUCH SETTING] indicator is lit the ideal voice and other settings (see list below) will be automatically recalled whenever you select a new style. The One Touch Settings can be turned off by pressing the [ONE TOUCH SETTING] button so that its indicator goes out. If you don’t want to use the One Touch Settings as they are, they can be edited and stored in a Registration Memory for easy recall at any time (see page 37 for details on the Registration memory). ONE TOUCH SETTING The One Touch Setting function recalls the following settings: ONE TOUCH SETTING • The preset voice settings for the currently selected style — including orchestration, voice assignments, volume, octave, DSP depth, pan, harmony, and effect settings. • ACCOMP VOLUME level (21). • AUTO ACCOMP is turned ON. • The default tempo for the currently selected style. • The track ON/OFF status for the currently selected style. • [REVOICE] is turned OFF. • KEYBOARD PERCUSSION is turned OFF. • Auto Accompaniment split point (55). • Orchestration split point (69). NOTES • If you press [ONE TOUCH SETTING] while rhythm-only accompaniment is playing, AUTO ACCOMP will be turned ON. • The synchro start mode will be engaged if the [ONE TOUCH SETTING] button is turned on while the accompaniment is stopped. • The [ONE TOUCH SETTING] button cannot be turned on when style number “00” is selected. 36 ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Registration Memory The REGISTRATION MEMORY can be used to store eight complete sets of VOICE and AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT settings that can be recalled anytime at the touch of a button.

If you press the [FREEZE] button so that only the VOICE indicator is lit, for example, then only the stored AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT settings will be recalled when a REGISTRATION MEMORY button is pressed. To use the [FREEZE] button, simply press it as many times as necessary to cause the appropriate indicators to light. When an indicator is lit, then the corresponding group of settings is “frozen”. NOTES 38 • The FREEZE on/off status is retained in memory even when the power switch is turned off, as long as the backup batteries are installed or the AC plug is connected. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Record Functions The PSR-1700/PSR-2700 RECORDING section controls three recording functions: ● The SONG MEMORY: Record complete songs including an accompaniment track and up to six melody tracks. Songs can be saved to and loaded from floppy disk as required (page 56). ● MULTI PADS: Record short chord, melody, or rhythm sequences that can be played back anytime by simply pressing a button. The MULTI PAD data can be saved to and loaded from floppy disk as required. ● CUSTOM ACCOMPANIMENT: Create your own accompaniment style for use with the Auto Accompaniment feature. Custom accompaniments can be saved to and loaded from floppy disk as required. Operation of all three functions is essentially the same, so once you’re familiar with the basic procedure, recording songs, multi-pad phrases, or custom accompaniments should be easy. We’ll start with the SONG MEMORY. CAUTION • Turning the power OFF during recording or while the recordready mode is engaged can result in a loss of recorded data. Song Memory The SONG MEMORY allows you to record and play back complete songs including chord sequences created using the Auto Accompaniment feature and melody lines you play on the keyboard. The SONG MEMORY has one ACCOMP track and six MELODY tracks. You also have a choice of realtime and step recording modes: the realtime mode records what you play as you play it; the step mode lets you record one step at a time. Only one song can be retained in the PSR-1700 or PSR-2700 memory at a time, but your songs can be saved to floppy disk — at most 99 songs per disk (the actual number depends on the volume of the song data) — and then reloaded later whenever you want to play them (page 56). NOTES • Material recorded using the SONG MEMORY is retained in memory even when the POWER switch is turned OFF if backup batteries are present or the AC plug is connected.

They are not indestructable, however, and should be handled with care. Observe the following points to ensure the long-term safety of your disks and data. ● Type of Disk ■ Use only double-sided double density (2DD) 3.5-inch floppy disks with the PSR1700 and PSR-2700. ■ ■ ● Taking Care of Your Floppy Disks ■ ■ ■ Never attempt to eject a disk during a read or write operation (i.e. while the disk drive is operating). Doing so can damage both the disk and the drive. Never turn the power on or off while a disk is in the drive. Always eject the disk before turning the power off. To eject a floppy disk from the disk drive press the eject button slowly as far as it will go. Then when the disk is fully ejected, remove it by hand. ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ The disk may not be ejected properly if the eject button is pressed too quickly or if it is not pressed in far enough (the eject button may become stuck halfway with the disk extending from the slot by only a few millimeters). If this is the case, do not attempt to pull out the partially ejected disk. Doing so may damage the disk drive mechanism and/or the floppy disk. To remove a partially ejected disk, try pressing the eject button once again or push 56 ■ ■ the disk back into the slot, then repeat the eject procedure carefully. Do not insert anything but floppy disks into the disk drive. Other objects can damage the disk drive or floppy disk. Never open the disk’s shutter by hand or touch the internal surface of the disk. Dirt, dust, or grease on the disk’s magnetic surface can cause data errors. Never leave disks near a speaker, TV, or other device that emits a strong magnetic field. Strong magnetic fields can partially erase the data on the disk. Do not store disks in places exposed to direct sunlight or other sources of heat. The acceptable storage temperature range is approximately 4° to 53°C (39° to 127°F). Do not store disks in areas subject to extreme dryness or humidity. The acceptable relative humidity range is approximately 8 to 90%. Do not store disks in areas contaminated with dust, sand, smoke, etc. Do not place heavy objects such as books on top of a disk. Avoid getting floppy disks wet, particularly with oily or sticky fluids. A disk that has been wet with water should be allowed to dry naturally before use. Disks contaminated by other fluids can cause damage to the disk drive and should be discarded. Be sure to apply the disk label at the proper position. When changing the label never cover the old label with a new label; always remove the old label first. ● Head Cleaning With extended use the read/write head of the disk drive will pick up dust and other particles that will eventually cause data errors. If this occurs, clean the head with a 3.5 inch head cleaning disk available from most computer supply stores. ● Data Backup For maximum data security we strongly recommend that you keep two copies of important data on separate floppy disks. These disks should ideally be stored in separate locations. This gives you a backup if one disk is lost or damaged. ● Protecting Your Data (Write Protect Tab) To prevent accidental erasure of important data, slide the disk’s write-protect tab to the “protect” position (tab open). With the tab in this position data can be read from the disk but nothing can be written to it. Write protect tab on (locked — write protected) Write protect tab off (unlocked — write enabled) ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ■ Formatting a New Floppy Disk The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 use only 3.5" 2DD floppy disks. Before you can use a new disk for saving data, the disk must be “formatted” as described below. ZInsert the Disk To Be Formatted ........................................................................................................... Insert a new blank disk. Make sure that the disk’s write protect tab is set to the “write” position (tab closed), and insert the new disk into the disk drive unit with the sliding door facing the drive slot and the label side of the disk facing upward. The disk should click securely into place. When an unformatted disk is properly loaded, “Format?” will appear on the LCD display panel, the ARE YOU SURE? indicator will flash and the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 will ask “Are you sure?”. PSR-1700 PSR-2700 08:Showtune 001:GrandPno AccOff Format? Format? NOTES • If an unformatted disk is already in the drive and the format operation was cancelled prior to execution, press the [FORMAT] button to reengage the format function. DELETE FORMAT • The [FORMAT] button can also be used when you want to re-format a formatted disk - to erase all the data it contains, for example. • “Unformatted Disk” will appear on the display if an unformatted writeprotected disk is loaded. Make sure the disk’s write protect tab is in the write position before formatting. XConfirm and Format ............................................................................................................................... YES ARE YOU SURE ? NO Press the [YES] button to confirm and execute the format operation (or press [NO] to cancel). Formatting an entire disk takes a few seconds, and the progress of the operation is shown on the LCD display panel in percent formatted: “0%” through “100%”. When the disk has been 100% formatted the format function will be automatically disengaged. PSR-1700 PSR-2700 Formatting: 75% NOTES 08:Showtune 001:GrandPno AccOff Formatting: 75% • Be careful not to format a disk that already contains data you want to keep. The format operation erases all data on the floppy disk! • The “Format?” display will also appear if you insert a disk that has been formatted on a piece of equipment other than the PSR-1700 or PSR-2700. CAUTION • Never remove the disk or turn the power off while the “Formatting” display is showing. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 57 Using Floppy Disks ■ Saving, Loading, & Deleting Disk Files ● Saving to Disk A single floppy disk can hold up to 99 separate files (depending on the file size). Each file on a disk has a unique file number (01 through 99) and file name. You can specify both the file number and file name you want to save to. When saving data to disk you must also specify a file type according to the type of data you want to save. The file types are listed below (they’re also listed on the panel in the DISK control section). The “file extension” is a period and three-character suffix attached to the end of each file name to identify the file type. Type File Extension Data Saved All .ALL All data except sampled voices: song, custom accompaniment, multi pad, registration memory. Song .SNG The song data currently in the song memory. Custom Style .STY The current custom style (style no. 00) Multi Pad .PAD All current multi pad data; pads [1] through [4]. Registration Memory .REG All current registration memory settings; [1] through [8]. Single Voice (PSR-2700) .VCE A single specified sampled voice (the currently selected sampled voice in the digital sampling section). Sample Dump (PSR-2700) .VDP All sampled voices currently in the sample memory. NOTES • In the case of a Single Voice (.VCE) the currently selected sampled voice number will be saved with the sampled voice data. The same sampled voice number will then be automatically selected when the voice is loaded (the load destination voice number can be changed as required). ZInsert a Formatted Disk ......................................................................................................................... If an appropriate disk is not already in the drive, insert the disk you want to save the data to. If necessary, format the disk as described in the previous section before proceeding. NOTES • When a formatted disk is inserted the amount of space remaining on the disk is displayed in kilobytes. XSelect a File Type ................................................................................................................................... SAVE PART Press the [SAVE PART] button and use the [+] and [–] buttons, the number buttons, the data dial, or the [SAVE PART] button itself to specify the file type that you want to save.

SAVE YES NO ARE YOU SURE ? PSR-1700 PSR-2700 ---ALL Saving--NOTES 08:Showtune 001:GrandPno AccOff ---ALL Saving--- • An “S” will appear in front of the file number when the save function is selected . ● Enter an Original File Name Prior to Saving M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 The PSR-1700/PSR-2700 automatically creates a file name (for example “PSR_ _ _01”) for the file you are about to save. If you want to enter a more descriptive name for easier file identification (and this is recommended), this can be done via the keyboard immediately before executing step V, above. A file name can consist of up to eight characters. Each key on the keyboard enters a different character, listed immediately below the key. The lowest key (C1) functions as a shift key that shifts between lower- and upper-case characters: hold the SHIFT key while pressing a character key to enter the uppercase character. Each time a character is entered the cursor moves to the next character position (you cannot write over the file extension following the period at then end of the file name). The F5 and F#5 keys move the cursor backward and forward within the file name. Use these keys to place the cursor where you want to enter or change a character. The DELETE key (G5) deletes the character at the cursor position. When you’ve completed the name, start the save operation by pressing the ENTER key (C6) or by pressing the [YES] button as described in step V. Duplicate file names are not accepted. If you enter a file name that already exists on the disk, the “Same Name” error message will appear on the display. CAUTION NOTES • Never remove the disk or turn the power off while the “Saving” display is showing. • If the file number you have selected already contains data, the PSR-1700/ PSR-2700 will ask for confirmation with then “Overwrite OK?” display. If you’re sure you want to write of the existing data press the [YES] button. Press [NO] if you want to cancel. • If the disk becomes full during a save operation “Disk Full” will appear on the display and the save operation will be aborted. In this case the data saved up to that point will be cleared. Sampled voices are an exception, however, since they can be saved individually. If the disk becomes full while saving sampled voices the PSR-2700 will request a new disk in order to save the remaining voices (“Insert Disk No. X” display — “X” being the number of the required disk). • When saving song, custom accompaniment, or multi pad data which uses a sampled voice, be sure to save the sampled voice separately. The sampled voice must then be independently loaded when the song, custom accompaniment, or multi pad data is loaded for use. The sampled voice data will automatically be loaded into the appropriate voice number (do not change the destination voice number when loading). • Save and Load operations can be canceled by pressing and holding the [NO] button. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 59 Using Floppy Disks ● Loading From Disk ZSelect a File .............................................................................................................................................

If you turn the power off while loading sampled voices from disk, all data in the PSR-2700 Wave Ram will be lost. • Please note that when you load data from disk the loaded data will replace any current data of the same type in the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 memory. • An “L” will appear in front of the file number when the load function is selected. • If you select a file number with data that cannot be loaded or a file number with no corresponding data, the “Can’t Load!” or “File Not Found!” error message will appear (see “Error Messages” on page 81). • If you load style data from disk, it will automatically be loaded into style number “00” and can be selected and used in the same way as the preset styles. ● Loading Data From the Supplied Demonstration Disk File numbers 01 through 04 on the PSR-1700/2700 demonstration disk and file numbers 01 and 02 on the PSR-2700 demonstration disk are demo songs that can be played by using the quick play function. When the PSR-2700 demonstration disk is inserted, the sampled voice data will automatically be loaded into sampled voice number 128. The sampled voice will not be loaded automatically if there is already data in sampled voice number 128, or if the wave RAM is full. If there is already data in voice number 128 “Replace OK?” will appear on the LCD display and the “Are you sure?” prompt will sound. press [YES] to continue with the load operation. If the wave RAM is full “Wave Ram Full” will appear on the LCD display. You will have to delete unnecessary data before continuing with the load operation. 60 ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| File numbers 05 through 12 on the demonstration disk are accompaniment styles that load into style number 00 and can be played by selecting that number.

The Digital Sampling system can record a maximum of 6 seconds of sound per sample pad, up to a total of 60 seconds. A sampled “voice” is a complete set of data for the four SAMPLE PADS. CAUTION • Never interrupt the PSR-2700 power supply - either by unplugging the power cord or by turning the power switch off - during sampling, during a clear operation, while the PSR-2700 is processing sampled data (i.e. while “Squeezing” appears on the display), or while loading sampled voices from disk. Doing so will result in the loss of all data in the PSR-2700 wave RAM! DIGITAL SAMPLING VOICE # FREQ TRIGGER MAPPING LEVEL PITCH REC VOICE NAME 0 dB –6 –12 –18 –24 –30 –36 MIN CLEAR MAX INPUT LEVEL 1 2 3 4 SAMPLE PADS ■ Connections SAMPLE IN LINE MIC To use the Digital Sampler you’ll need to connect the source you intend to use to either the rear-panel SAMPLE IN LINE or MIC jack. If you’ll be recording via a microphone, plug the microphone into the SAMPLE IN MIC jack. If you’ll be recording from a line-level source such as a cassette player or other audio playback device, plug the player’s line output into the SAMPLE IN LINE jack. If your audio playback device has RCA pin-jack type outputs you’ll need to acquire a cable or connector converter that allows connection to the PSR-2700’s 1/4-inch mono phone jack. CD Player NOTES • Be sure to obtain proper permission when sampling copyrighted material. ■ Setting the Input Level For optimum sound quality you’ll need to match the input sensitivity on the PSR-2700 Digital Sampling system to the output level of your source. After connecting and preparing your source: ZEngage the Level Check Mode .............................................................................................................. Press the DIGITAL SAMPLING section [REC] button. “LEVEL CHECK MODE” will appear on the display and the [REC] indicator will flash.

Play the sound you intend to record, via microphone or line, and adjust the INPUT LEVEL control while watching the level indicators above the control. The length of the “bar” formed by the level indicators increases as input level increases. For optimum sound quality, your input signal should cause most of the indicators to light, but not all. If all indicators including the red “0 dB” indicator light in response to the input signal you’re probably overloading the input circuitry and will end up with distorted sound. At the other extreme, if none of the indicators light, or only the lowest one or two indicators light, then the input signal is too small and the level of the recorded sound will be too low. 0 dB –6 –12 –18 –24 –30 –36 MIN MAX INPUT LEVEL NOTES • The keyboard and other function buttons will not operate in the level check mode. CExit ........................................................................................................................................................... Once the input level has been set properly, press the DIGITAL SAMPLING [REC] button to exit from the level check mode. REC ■ Setting the Sampling Frequency The length of the sample you can record and its sound quality are determined by the “sampling frequency”. A high sampling frequency produce better sound quality but shorter samples; a low sampling frequency allow longer recording but with reduced sound quality. The PSR-2700 gives you two sampling frequency settings: Setting Length Sound Quality 1: LOW 6 sec. (approx.) Low 2: HIGH 3 sec. (approx.) High ZPress the [FREQ] Button ....................................................................................................................... Press the DIGITAL SAMPLING section [FREQ] button.

RESET NOTES 64 • The “LOW” setting is automatically selected when the PSR-2700 power is initially turned on. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ■ Setting the Trigger Level There are two ways to start sample recording: manual and triggered. With manual recording recording starts the moment you press the [REC] and pad buttons, as described in the “Recording” section, below. With triggered recording you initially engage the record standby mode and recording actually begins as soon as the PSR2700 detects an input signal that is higher than the selected trigger level. The [TRIGGER LEVEL] button lets you select the method you want to use, and provides 5 different trigger levels. The trigger level you choose will depend on the type of signal you want to record and the level of the background noise where you record. The idea is to set the highest trigger level that will start recording without cutting off the attack of the sound you are recording. If the trigger level is too low, recording can be triggered by ambient background noise at the wrong time. ZPress the [TRIGGER LEVEL] Button .................................................................................................... Press the DIGITAL SAMPLING section [TRIGGER LEVEL] button. The current trigger level setting will appear on the LCD display panel.

When the trigger level is set to “OFF”, manual recording is selected and recording will start immediately when the [REC] and pad buttons are pressed (see the “Recording” section, below). Automatic triggering is selected when a value from 1 to 5 is selected. “1” produces the lowest triggering level, triggering recording when even a very soft sound is detected at the input. Increasing values produce progressively higher trigger levels. Try a trigger level of 2 or 3 to begin with. The default setting of “3” can be instantly selected by pressing the [+] and [–] buttons simultaneously. NOTES • Proper trigger operation depends on proper input level adjustment. Make sure you set the input level properly as described on page 63. • The trigger level is set to “3” when the PSR-2700 power is initially turned on. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 65 PSR-2700 Digital Sampling ■ Recording Each sampled “voice” recorded by the PSR-2700 can contain four separate samples, one in each SAMPLE PAD. You can play the individual samples included in the selected sample voice by playing the appropriate pad, or by playing on the keyboard when the VOICE section SAMPLED VOICE indicator is lit. When you play a sampled voice via the keyboard, the four separate samples it contains are assigned to different ranges of the keyboard. This will be explained in more detail in the “Playing Samples via the Keyboard” section on page 70. Your sampled voices will be retained in the PSR-2700 sample memory even when the power is turned off as long as the backup batteries are installed on the AC plug is connected. Your samples can also be saved to and loaded from disk so you can create and original sample library. NOTES • Although a maximum of 255 individual samples can be recorded, the samples have to be extremely short — a fraction of a second each — to achieve this number. During normal sample recording the sample memory is likely to become full long before the maximum of 255 samples is reached. The maximum total recording time — 60 seconds — is a more reliable guide as to how much of the sample memory has been used or is available.

If you selected automatic triggering, the [REC] button and selected SAMPLE PAD will flash until recording is triggered by an input signal. When recording starts, whether manual or triggered, the [REC] button indicator will light continuously and “Sampling” will appear on the display. NOTES • The keyboard and other function buttons will not operate during sample recording. • If the “No Bank” or “Wave Ram Full” error message appears, there is not enough memory available for sampling and some data will have to be cleared before sampling will be possible (See “Error Messages” on page 81). CStop Recording ....................................................................................................................................... 1 2 3 SAMPLE PADS 66 4 Press the SAMPLE PAD to which you are recording to stop recording. Both the [REC] button and SAMPLE PAD indicators will go out. NOTES • Try to stop record immediately after the sound has finished in order to conserve sample memory and allow maximum total recording time. • If the maximum sampling time is exceeded, “Sampling End” will appear on the display and recording will stop automatically. • In some cases “SQUEEZING XXX%” will appear on the display while the PSR-2700 processes the sampled data after recording. “XXXKByteFree” will then appear, indicating the amount of RAM remaining after the data has been processed. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| VRepeat as Necessary ............................................................................................................................. Repeat the above procedure to record the remaining SAMPLE PADS, as required. NOTES • The PSR-2700 has 1,020 kilobytes (1.02 megabytes) of waveform RAM memory for sampled voice storage. To find out how much of this memory is available for recording press the [CLEAR] button: “XXXX KByteFree” will appear on the display (“XXXX” indicates the remaining RAM in kilobytes). • The sample data is retained in memory even when the power switch is turned off as long as the backup batteries are installed or the AC plug is connected. ● Enter an Original Voice Name VOICE NAME M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 08:Showtune 001:GrandPno AccOff SVC=001:H – ello! The PSR-2700 automatically creates a voice name for each sampled voice. If you want to enter a more descriptive name for easier identification (and this is recommended), this can be done via the keyboard after pressing the DIGITAL SAMPLING section [VOICE NAME] button so that its indicator lights. A voice name can consist of up to eight characters. Each key on the keyboard enters a different character, listed immediately below the key. The lowest key (C1) functions as a shift key that shifts between lower- and upper-case characters: hold the SHIFT key while pressing a character key to enter the upper-case character. Each time a character is entered the cursor moves to the next character position. The F5 and F#5 keys move the cursor backward and forward within the voice name. Use these keys to place the cursor where you want to enter or change a character. The DELETE key (G5) deletes the character at the cursor position. Press the ENTER key (C6) when you’ve finished entering the voice name — this returns you to the voice number display (your voice name will not be entered if you don’t press the ENTER key). NOTES • Playing the keyboard will produce no sound during voice name entry. • No name can be entered for a voice that contains no data. ■ Playing the Sample Pads 1 2 3 SAMPLE PADS VOICE # 4 The recorded samples can be played simply by pressing the appropriate SAMPLE PAD. The sample sounds only as long as the pad is held, so you play only a section of a sample by releasing the pad early, or rapidly retrigger the first section of the sample by repeatedly pressing the pad. The pads can also be played at the same time so you can play all four samples simultaneously, as required. To select a different sample voice for playback via the pads, then press the DIGITAL SAMPLING section [VOICE #] button and use the [+] and [–] buttons, the number buttons, the data dial, or the [VOICE #] button itself to select the desired sample voice number. NOTES • Different voices can be selected for playback via the pads and keyboard (see page 70), and these can be played simultaneously via the pads and keyboard. • To use sample pad data from disk, load the data into the PSR-2700 as described on page 60. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 67 PSR-2700 Digital Sampling ■ Editing Samples The following functions provide a range of useful sample editing capabilities. NOTES ● Clearing Samples • If the sample data cannot be edited the following messages will appear on the LCD display: “No Wave Data” if there is no data in the pad; “Protected Voice” is the data is protected and cannot be edited by the PSR-2700. The contents of an entire sampled voice (four pads) or individual SAMPLE PADS can be completely cleared (erased) as follows: ZHold [CLEAR] and Select the Voice Or a Pad ...................................................................................... While holding the [CLEAR] button press the [VOICE #] button if you want to clear the entire voice, or the SAMPLE PAD you want to clear if or you only want to clear one pad. The [CLEAR] button, pad indicator if a CLEAR pad was selected, and ARE YOU SURE? indicators will flash and the “Are you sure?” prompt will also sound. XClear the Voice or Pad ........................................................................................................................... Press the [YES] button to clear the current sample voice or selected pad, or the [NO] button to cancel the clear operation. VOICE # 2 YES NO ARE YOU SURE ? NOTES • In some cases “SQUEEZING XXX%” will appear on the display while the PSR-2700 processes the sampled data during the clear process. “XXXXKByteFree” will then appear, indicating the amount of RAM remaining after the data has been processed. • When a sample pad is cleared, the mapping applied to that pad is also cleared and the default mapping will be restored. ● Tuning the Samples The pitch of each SAMPLE PAD can be adjusted over approximately a ±50-cent range (100 cents total — approximately one semitone). This is a convenient way to tune samples to match the music in which they will be used. ZHold [PITCH] and Select a Pad ..............................................................................................................

If all four SAMPLE PADS have been recorded for the currently selected sampled voice, the individual samples will initially be assigned to the keyboard as follows: VOICE SELECT SAMPLED KEYBOARD PERCUSSION VOICE Initial mapping PAD Key Range PAD 1 C2 C1 … F#2 PAD 2 C3 G2 … F#3 PAD 3 C4 G3 … F#4 PAD 4 C5 G4 … C6 C2 – + 0 1 2 RESET C3 C4 C5 PAD 1 PAD 2 PAD 3 PAD 4 (C1…F#2) (G2…F#3) (G3…F#4) (G4…C6) In the above chart “Key” is the key on the keyboard to which the original pitch of the recorded sample is assigned. For example, pressing the C2 key will produce exactly the same sound as pressing PAD 1. Other keys within the specified range play the sample at appropriately higher or lower pitches. If only one sample is recorded, the sample will play across the entire range of the keyboard. If two or three samples are recorded they will be assigned to the same keys but the ranges will be adjusted to suit the number of samples. The sample key assignments can be changed by using the “Mapping” function, described below. To select a different sample voice for playback via the keyboard, make sure the VOICE section [SAMPLED VOICE] indicator is on, then use the [+] and [–] buttons, the number buttons, the data dial, or the [VOICE SELECT] button to select the desired sample voice number. Press the [SAMPLED VOICE] button so that its indicator goes out when you want to return to the normal voice mode. NOTES • The sampled voices have 26-note polyphony in addition to the 28 notes available for the normal voices. • The sampled voices can be assigned to any of the ORCHESTRATION parts. ● Mapping This function allows the original pitch of the sampled sound to be “mapped” to any key on the keyboard, thus changing the key assignments and keyboard ranges described above. ZHold [MAPPING] and Select a Pad ........................................................................................................

CExit ........................................................................................................................................................... MAPPING Press the [MAPPING] button or any other function button — the [VOICE SELECT] button, for example — to exit from the mapping function. NOTES • Normally the key to which a sample is mapped will become approximately the center of its range. The actual range will depend on how many of the four samples are recorded and to which keys they are mapped. • The default mapping assignments are restored for pads which are cleared as described in “Clearing Samples”: PAD 1 to C2, PAD 2 to C3, PAD 3 to C4, and PAD 4 to C5. • If you press several keys simultaneously while mapping the last key pressed take priority. • Mapping assignments are retained even if new samples are recorded. • Mapping is not possible for: pads that contain no data (“No Wave Data” error); a key that is already mapped (“Same Note” error). ■ Sample Memory Backup & Disk Storage The PSR-2700 is backed up by the backup batteries and will remain intact as long as a good set of batteries is installed. Even if no batteries are installed the memory will be maintained as long as the power plug is connected to an AC outlet. It is always a good idea, however, to save samples you want to keep to floppy disk. You can save either single voices or the entire contents of the sample memory to disk as required. Full instructions on floppy disk use are given in the “Floppy Disk” section beginning on page 56. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 71 Pedal Assign Optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitches and/or or FC7 foot controllers can be plugged into either or both of the rear-panel PEDAL jacks and used to control a wide range of functions. 1 PEDAL 2 1 2 PEDAL ASSIGN The functions listed below can be assigned to the footswitch or foot controller connected to the PEDAL 1 and PEDAL 2 jacks by pressing the appropriate function button while holding the PEDAL ASSIGN [1] or [2] button.

This makes it possible to create “systems” of MIDI instruments and equipment that offer far greater versatility and control than is available with isolated instruments. MIDI RECEIVE TRANSMIT CH/CL/COM CH L R MODE ................ 0 RX OFF 1 MULTI 2 REMOTE 3 CHORD 4 ROOT LOCAL MIDI OUT LOCAL / MIDI OUT ● The MIDI Connectors .............................................................................................................................. MIDI The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external MIDI deTHRU OUT IN vice which can be used to control the PSR-1700 or PSR-2700. The MIDI THRU connector re-transmits data received at the MIDI IN connector, allowing “chaining” of several MIDI devices. The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI data generated by the PSR-1700 or PSR-2700 (e.g. note and velocity data produced by playing the keyboard). ● Simple MIDI Control ................................................................................................................................ Most MIDI keyboards transmit note and velocity (touch response) inforTone Generator mation via the MIDI OUT connector whenever a note is played on the keyMIDI IN board. If the MIDI OUT connector is connected to the MIDI IN connector of a second keyboard (synthesizer, etc.) or a tone generator (essentially a MIDI OUT synthesizer with no keyboard), the second keyboard or tone generator will PSR-1700/2700 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. The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 also transmit “program change” data when one of its voices is selected. Depending on how the receiving device is set up, the corresponding voice will be MIDI Keyboard automatically selected on the receiving keyboard or tone generator whenever a voice is selected on the PSR-1700 or PSR-2700. MIDI OUT MIDI IN PSR-1700/2700 The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 are capable of receiving the same MIDI data, so a second MIDI keyboard connected to the PSR-1700 or PSR-2700 MIDI IN connector can be used to remotely play the instrument and select voices as required. ● MIDI Sequence Recording ...................................................................................................................... Sequencer MIDI IN MIDI OUT PSR-1700/2700 Although the PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 feature a built-in “sequencer” (the Song Memory is a type of sequencer), the same type of musical information transfer described above can be used for more sophisticated MIDI sequence recording using an external sequencer or music computer. A MIDI sequence recorder or music computer can be used to “record” MIDI data received from a PSR-1700 or PSR-2700, for example. When the recorded data is played back, the PSR-1700 or PSR-2700 automatically “plays” the recorded performance in precise detail. NOTES • Never use MIDI cables longer than about 15 meters, since cables longer than this can pick up noise which can cause data errors. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 73 MIDI MIDI Reception Modes The [RECEIVE CH/CL/COM] button is used to specify the reception mode for each of the 16 MIDI channels, the internal or external clock mode, and MIDI start/stop command reception mode. ■ Channel Reception Modes The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 allow any of five reception modes to be individually assigned to MIDI channels 1 through 16. The five modes are: Mode “0” RX OFF: Reception disabled. Mode “1” MULTI: Received MIDI note data directly controls the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 tone generator. Different voices can be played on different channels. Mode “2” REMOTE: Received MIDI note data is handled in the same way as data from the PSR-1700/PSR-2700’s own keyboard. Mode “3” CHORD: Received MIDI note data is interpreted as Auto Accompaniment chord commands. Mode “4” ROOT: Received MIDI note data is interpreted as Auto Accompaniment bass note commands . NOTES • If the PSR-1700/2700 receives more than one note at the same time while mode “4” (Root) is selected, the last note will be interpreted as the Auto Accompaniment bass note.

It is also possible to independently turn local control and MIDI output on or off for the L and R voices. ■ MIDI Transmit Channels The L and R ORCHESTRATION voices can be independently set to transmit on any of the 16 MIDI channels as follows: ZPress the [L] or [R] TRANSMIT CH Press the [L] button if you want to set the L voice transmit channel, or the [R] to set the R voice transmit channel. The currently selected channel for the selected voice will appear on the LCD display panel. TRANSMIT CH L R PSR-1700 PSR-2700 MIDI TxCh R=0 –1 LOCAL MIDI OUT LOCAL / MIDI OUT NOTES 08:Showtune 001:GrandPno AccOff MIDI TxCh R=0 –1 • After selecting L or R, as described above, the default transmit channel can be recalled by simultaneously pressing the [+] and [–] buttons. The default “L” channel number is “2”, and the default “R” channel is “1”. XSelect the Desired Transmit Channel ................................................................................................... – + 0 1 Use the [+] and [–] buttons, the number buttons, the data dial, or the [L] or [R] button itself to select the desired transmit channel. RESET NOTES • The currently selected transmit channel is retained in memory even when the power switch is turned off, as long as backup batteries are installed or an AC plug is connected. • To record the Song Memory data to an external sequencer, start the sequencer running in the record mode, press the [RESET] button, and then press the [PLAY/STOP] button. • To record the Auto Accompaniment data to an external sequencer, start the sequencer running in the record mode, select the style you want to record, then start Auto Accompaniment playback. • Notes played on the keyboard are transmitted on channel 1 or 2 (selectable), Auto Accompaniment data is transmitted on channels 10 through 16, and Song Memory data is transmitted on channels 3 through 8. Normally the Auto Accompaniment Rhythm 1 and Rhythm 2 tracks are both transmitted on channel 10. To transmit these tracks separately, hold the C1 key while turning the power on. When this is done the Rhythm 1 data will be transmitted on channel 9 and the Rhythm 2 data will be transmitted on channel 10. ■ Local & MIDI Output ON/OFF The [LOCAL/MIDI OUT] buttons and indicators below the TRANSMIT CH [L] and [R] buttons can be used to turn local control and MIDI output ON or OFF as required. The status of the LOCAL and MIDI OUT indicators changes as shown below each time the corresponding [LOCAL/MIDI OUT] button is pressed: TRANSMIT CH L R LOCAL MIDI OUT LOCAL / MIDI OUT 76 NOTES • When “LOCAL” control is turned ON (indicator lit), the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 is controlled by its own keyboard. When “LOCAL” control is off, playing the keyboard produces no sound — it can only be played by MIDI data received via the MIDI IN terminal. • When MIDI OUT is turned ON (indicator lit), operating the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 produces corresponding MIDI output. When MIDI OUT is turned OFF (indicator out) no MIDI output is produced by the PSR-1700/PSR-2700. • LOCAL & MIDI OUT ON/OFF controls note on/off only. All other data is always output automatically. • Since LOCAL & MIDI OUT ON/OFF status is memorized in the Registration Memory, you can select the tone generator to be used (PSR-1700/PSR-2700 or an external tone generator) by changing the registration memory. • Auto accompaniment will not function when Left LOCAL OFF is selected. Auto accompaniment note on/off data will not be output when Left MIDI OUT OFF is selected. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Appendix ■ Voice & Polyphony List The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 can play up to 28 individual notes at the same time (i.e. it has a maximum “polyphony” of 28). This number includes all voices used: dual, split, auto accompaniment, song memory, and multi pads. If the maximum polyphony is exceeded excess notes will be truncated (they will not sound). Another feature affecting polyphony is the fact that some voices actually use two voices at once, as shown in the voice list below. The effective maximum polyphony is correspondingly reduced when these voices are used. NOTES • The voice list includes the MIDI program numbers that control each voice when the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 is played from an external MIDI device. • An additional 26 notes are available in the PSR-2700 when a sampled voice is used. These notes are only available for the sampled voice.

IMPORTANT 82 • Executing the System Reset function will erase all internal memory settings ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ■ Troubleshooting Something not working as it should? In many cases what appears to be a malfunction can be traced to a simple error that can be remedied immediately. Before assuming that your PortaTone is faulty, please check the following points. PROBLEM • The speakers produce a “pop” sound whenever the power is turned ON or OFF. • Not all simultaneously-played notes sound. POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION • This is normal and is no cause for alarm. • You are probably exceeding the instrument’s maximum polyphony. The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 can play up to 28 notes at the same time — including split, dual, auto-accompaniment, and multi pad notes. Notes exceeding this limit will not sound. The same applies to the 26-note polyphony of the PSR-2700 sampled voices. • Auto accompaniment won’t function properly. No lower keyboard sound. • Auto accompaniment won’t sound right if you’re using SINGLE type fingering when the SINGLE mode is not selected (page 27). • Are you sure you’re playing in the Auto-Accompaniment section of the keyboard? • Are you playing chords that the PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 can recognize (see chord types on pages 26, 27, and 28)? • The selected voice does not sound when the keyboard is played. • The orchestration part to which the voice is assigned must be turned ON (page 11). • Make sure that the voice volume parameter for the orchestration part to which the voice is assigned is set to an appropriate level (page 14). • Voice parameter changes do not affect the desired voice. • The edit mode for the voice to which the changes are to be applied must be turned ON (page 13). • No sound when rhythm started. • Some sections of some styles have no data in the rhythm track. Try turning Auto Accompaniment on and fingering an appropriate chord — the Auto Accompaniment should begin to play. • Song Memory track indicator does not go out when the track is cleared. • You may have executed the clear function from a point in the middle of the track, thus only clearing the data after that point. Press the [RESET] button to go to the beginning of the track, then clear. • No sound when the keyboard is played. • LOCAL OFF is selected for the left- or right-hand section of the keyboard. Set to LOCAL ON (page 76). ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 83 Index + and – buttons

The bank select LSB is ignored. MSB 00H: GM melody voice. MSB 01H: Sample voice (PSR-2700). MSB 7FH: GM rhythm voice. The default for all the channels excepting channel 10 is 00H. Bank select reception with channel 10 is not possible since channel 10 is assigned to the rhythm accompaniment. However, bank select reception with channel 10 will be possible when you do the following operation: turning the POWER back on while holding the C1 key down. When the bank select MSB is 01H … 7EH, all subsequent key-ons received will be ignored. No voice change will occur when only a bank select is received. When a program change is received the latest bank select value is used. *5. Portamento control is effective only when Reception is set in the Multi mode. *6.

Continue neither transmitted nor received. ■ GM System Level 1 The existing MIDI protocol allows performance and other data to be transferred between different instruments, even if they are from different manufacturers. This means, for example, that sequence data that was originally created to control a tone generator from manufacturer A can also be used to control a different tone generator from manufacturer B. Since the voice allocation in different devices from different manufacturers is usually different, however, appropriate program change data must be transmitted to select the right voices. The General MIDI protocol was developed to minimize confusion and the need for re-programming when playing software created by one MIDI device on another. This has been achieved by defining a standard voice allocation in which the same or similar voices are accessed by the same program change numbers or MIDI channels. The current standard recognized by the International MIDI Association is known as “GM System Level 1.” The PSR-1700/PSR-2700 voice allocation complies with the GM System Level 1 standard. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 341 Specifications Keyboards: 61 standard-size keys (C1~C6) with touch response.
