GM System Level 1
“GM System Level 1” is an addition to the MIDI standard which ensures that any GM-compatible music
data can be accurately played by any GM-compatible tone generator, regardless of manufacturer. The GM
mark is affixed to all software and hardware products that support GM System Level.
XGlite
As its name implies, “XGlite” is a simplified version of Yamaha’s high-quality XG tone generation format.
Naturally, you can play back any XG song data using an XGlite tone generator. However, keep in mind that
some songs may play back differently compared to the original data, due to the reduced set of control
parameters and effects.
XF
The Yamaha XF format enhances the SMF (Standard MIDI File) standard with greater functionality and
open-ended expandability for the future. The instrument is capable of displaying lyrics when an XF file con-
taining lyric data is played.
STYLE FILE
The Style File Format is Yamaha’s original style file format which uses a unique conversion system to pro-
vide high-quality automatic accompaniment based on a wide range of chord types.
USB
USB is an abbreviation for Universal Serial Bus. It is a serial interface for connecting a computer with
peripheral Devices. It allows “hot swapping” (connecting peripheral devices while the power to the com-
puter is on).

Drum Kits
Drum kits are collections of drum and percussion instruments. When you select a violin or other
normal instrument main voice, for example, all keys produce the sound of the same violin, only at
different pitches. If you select a drum kit as the main voice, however, each key produces the sound
of a different drum or percussion instrument.
Try out each key and enjoy the drum and percus-
sion sounds! Don’t forget the black keys! You’ll
hear a triangle, maracas, bongos, drums ... a
comprehensive variety of drum and percussion
sounds. For details on the instruments included
in the drum kit voices (voice numbers 131 to
142), see the “Drum Kit List” on page 132.
Sound Effects
The sound effects are included in the drum kit voice group (voice numbers 141 and 142). When
either of these voices are selected you will be able to play a range of sound effects on the keyboard.
As you try out the various keys you’ll hear the sound of a
submarine, a telephone bell, a creaking door, and many
other useful effects. “141 SFX Kit 1” includes lightning,
running water, dogs barking, and others. Some keys do
not have assigned sound effects, and will therefore pro-
duce no sound.
For details on the instruments included in the SFX kit
voices, see “SFX Kit 1” and “SFX Kit 2” in the “Drum
Kit List” on page 133.

sions sound good with the styles.

On page 28 you learned how to play colorful accompaniments using styles. Chord progressions are vital
to creating interesting accompaniments, and with a little chord know-how you should be able to take
your accompaniments to a new level.
On these pages we’ll introduce three easy-to-use chord progressions. Be sure to try them out with the
instrument’s accompaniment styles. The style will respond to the chord progression you play, effectively
creating a complete song.

F C G Am
This is a simple-but-effective chord progression. When you play through to the end of the score, start
again from the beginning. When you’re ready to stop playing press the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] button

This progression includes jazzy “two-five” (II-V) changes. Try playing it through several times. When
you’re ready to stop playing press the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] button.
The instrument will automatically recognize the different chord types. The function is called Multi Fingering.

piece of music. You can simply enjoy listening to the 30 internal songs,
or use them with just about any of the many functions provided—the
performance assistant technology feature, lessons, and more. The
songs are organized by category.
In this section we’ll learn how to select and play songs, and briefly

for you.
● Chord ...................... No matter where or what you play, the result will be musical, well-bal-
anced sound. This type offers the greatest freedom, allowing you to play
anything with both your left and right hands.
● Chord/Free........... If you can play simple right-hand melodies but have trouble with left-
hand chords, this is the type for you. The Chord type applies to only the
left-hand section of the keyboard, allowing you to easily play chords to
support the melody you are playing with your right hand.

● Melody ................... This type lets you play the melody of the selected song by playing any
keys with just one finger. Start playing melodies right away, even if you’ve

section of the keyboard, and play chords on the left-hand section of the
keyboard using the Chord type.

Style (Auto-accompaniment) Functions
Basic operation of the Style (auto-accompaniment) feature is described on page 27 of
the Quick Guide.
Here are some other ways you can play the styles, the style volume adjustment proce-
dure, how you can play chords using the styles, and more.
● INTRO section
This is used for the beginning of the Song. When the intro finishes playing, accompaniment shifts to the
main section. The length of the intro (in measures) differs depending on the selected Style.
● MAIN section
This is used for playing the main part of the Song. It plays a main accompaniment pattern, and repeats
indefinitely until another section’s button is pressed. There are two variations on the basic pattern (A
and B), and the Style playback sound changes harmonically based on the chords you play with your left
hand.
● Fill-in section
This is automatically added before changing to section A or B.
● ENDING section
This is used for the ending of the Song. When the ending is finished, the auto accompaniment stops
automatically. The length of the ending (in measures) differs depending on the selected Style.

Chord Basics
The most basic chord type is the “triad” consisting of three notes: the
root, third, and fifth degrees of the corresponding scale. A C major triad,
for example, is made up of the notes C (the root), E (the third note of the
C major scale), and G (the fifth note of the C major scale).
3rd 3rd
Root
In the C major triad shown above, the lowest note is the “root” of the
chord (this is the chord’s “root position” ... using other chord notes for
the lowest note results in “inversions”). The root is the central sound of the chord, which supports and
anchors the other chord notes.
The distance (interval) between adjacent notes of a triad in root position is either a major or minor third.
Major third–four half steps (semitones) Minor third–three half steps (semitones)
The lowest interval in our root-position triad (between the root and the third) determines whether the triad
is a major or minor chord, and we can shift the highest note up or down by a semitone to produce two addi-
tional chords, as shown below.
Major chord Minor chord Augmented chord Diminished chord
CM Cm C aug C dim
Minor 3rd Major 3rd Major 3rd Minor 3rd Major 3rd Major 3rd Minor 3rd Minor 3rd
The basic characteristics of the chord sound remain intact even if we change the order of the notes to create
different inversions. Successive chords in a chord progression can be smoothly connected, for example, by
choosing the appropriate inversions (or chord “voicings”).

Saving and Loading Data
USB flash memory is a memory medium used for storing data.
When a USB flash memory is inserted in this instrument’s USB TO DEVICE terminal,
registered settings can be saved from or loaded into the instrument. USB flash mem-
ory can also be used to transfer Song, Style, and Music Database files to the instru-
ment, where they can be selected and used in the same way as the internal data.
In this section we’ll look at the procedures for setting up and formatting USB flash
memory devices, as well as for saving and loading data to and from them.
Before using a USB device, read through the “Precautions when using the USB TO
DEVICE terminal” section on page 97.

cases:
• During style or song playback.
• During a lesson.
• While data is being loaded from a USB flash memory.
NOTE
• Although CD-R/RW drives can be used to read data to the instrument, they cannot be used for saving data.
CAUTION
• Avoid frequently turning the power on/off to the USB storage
device, or connecting/disconnecting the device too often.
Doing so may result in the operation of the instrument “freez-
ing” or hanging up. While the instrument is accessing data
(such as during Save, Delete, Load and Format operations) or
is mounting the USB storage device (shortly after the connec-
tion), do NOT unplug the USB connector, do NOT remove the
media from the device, and do NOT turn the power off to either
device. Doing so may corrupt the data on either or both
devices.
