Power Supply

Turning Off the Keyboard Memory Contents

• Be sure to press the POWER button to turn off power and make sure that the LCD backlight is off before disconnecting the AC adaptor or doing anything else.

• Never disconnect the AC adaptor while the keyboard is turned on or try to turn off power using any other technique besides pressing the POWER button. Doing so can cause the contents of the keyboard's Flash memory to become corrupted. Strange keyboard operation and abnormal startup when power is turned on are symptoms of corrupted Flash memory contents. See “Troubleshooting” on page E-78 for more information.

• While the following message is on the display, never turn off

the keyboard by pressing the POWER button, disconnecting the AC adaptor, etc.

(message)“Pls Wait” or “Bulk In”

Turning off the keyboard while the above message is on the display can cause user data (user tones, song memory data, etc.) currently stored in keyboard memory to become corrupted. Once corrupted, you may not be able to recall the data again.

In addition to the above settings, data stored in the Registration Mode and Song Memory Mode is also retained when keyboard power is turned off.

Saving Setups and Memory Contents

J About Flash memory

Your keyboard comes with built-in Flash memory, which can continue to hold data even when electrical power is totally cut off. This means that even after batteries go completely dead, you can attach the AC adaptor, turn on power, and still recall data stored in memory.

• When running under battery power, be sure to replace batteries as soon as possible after the first signs of low battery power (dim power indicator lamp, dim display characters, etc.) Though the keyboard’s Flash memory is non-volatile (which means that data is not lost when power is interrupted), data can be lost if power suddenly fails while data is being written to flash memory*. * While storing or deleting user data, while recording with

the synthesizer, while transferring data from a computer, etc.

J Backing Up Data to a Computer

You can use a MIDI connection to back up keyboard settings and memory contents on a computer’s hard disk. See “MIDI”on page E-75 for more information.

E-14

Initializing the Keyboard

Initialization can be used to return keyboard parameters to their initial factory default settings, or to delete all data currently in keyboard memory. See page E-70 for more information about initialization.

 Returning the keyboard to its initial factory defaults

You can use the CD-ROM that comes with the keyboard and your computer to return the keyboard’s flash memory and all of its parameters to their initial factory default settings. See “Bundled CD-ROM Data” on page E-76 for details.

J Connecting Phones 1

Connecting phones cuts off output from the keyboard’s builtin speakers, so you can play even late at night without disturbing anyone.

J Audio Equipment 2

Connect the keyboard to a audio equipment using a commercially available connecting cord with a standard plug on one end and two PIN plugs on the other end. Note that the standard plug you connect to the keyboard must be a stereo plug, otherwise you will be able to output only one of stereo channels. In this configuration, you normally set the input selector of the audio equipment to the terminal (usually marked AUX IN or something similar) where the cord from the keyboard is connected. See the user documentation that comes with your audio equipment for full details.

J Musical Instrument Amplifier 3

Use a commercially available connecting cord to connect the keyboard to a musical instrument amplifier.

• Be sure to use a connecting cord that has a stereo standard plug on the end you connect to the keyboard, and a connector that provides dual channel (left and right) input to the amplifier to which you are connecting. The wrong type of connector at either end can cause one of the stereo channels to be lost.

• When connected to a musical instrument amplifier, set the volume of the keyboard to a relatively low level and make output volume adjustments using the amplifier’s controls.

Connection Example

SP-20

SUSTAIN/ASSIGNABLE JACK Terminal

J Sustain Pedal

• With piano tones, depressing the pedal causes notes to linger, much like a piano’s damper pedal.

• With organ tones, depressing the pedal causes notes to continue to sound until the pedal is released.

J Sostenuto Pedal

• As with the sustain pedal function described above, depressing the sostenuto pedal causes notes to be sustained.

• This difference between a sostenuto pedal and sustain pedal is the timing.

• With a sostenuto pedal, you press the keys and then depress the pedal before you release the keys. Only the notes that are sounding when the pedal is depressed are sustained.

J Soft Pedal

Depressing the pedal softens the sound of the notes being played.

J Rhythm Start/Stop Pedal

In this case, the pedal performs the same functions as the START/STOP button.

Accessories and Options

Use only the accessories and options specified for this keyboard. Use of non-authorized items creates the danger of fire, electrical shock, and personal injury.

Polyphony

The term polyphony refers to the maximum number of notes you can play at the same time. The keyboard has 32-note polyphony, which includes the notes you play as well as the rhythms and auto-accompaniment patterns that are played by the keyboard. This means that when a rhythm or autoaccompaniment pattern is being played by the keyboard, the number of notes (polyphony) available for keyboard play is reduced. Also note that some of the tones offer only 10-note polyphony.

Basic Operations

Changing Tones and Configuring DSP

Effect Settings

This keyboard has only a single DSP sound source. Because of this, selecting tones for which DSP is enabled for multiple parts when layering or splitting tones (page E-61, E-62) can cause conflicts. To avoid conflicts, DSP is allocated to the last DSP enabled tone, and DSP is disabled (DSP line OFF) for all other parts. DSP line is a parameter that controls whether or not the currently selected DSP effect is applied to a part.* Each tone has a DSP line parameter. Selecting a tone for a part applies the tone’s DSP line parameter setting to all parts. * The DSP line parameter is turned on (DSP effect is applied)

for the 332 Advanced Tones numbered 000 through 331, and turned off (DSP effect not applied) for the 200 preset tones from 400 to 599. For information about other tones, see “Tone Types” on page E-16.

(Ft: Feet)

Click

The parameter determines whether or not a key click is added when a sustained tone configured using the drawbars is played.

Parameter Name

Click Click

Percussion

This parameter lets you add percussion sound, which provides modulation to sustained tones that you create. When you hold down a key on the keyboard, the sound produced decays until it is no longer audible. Pressing the key again sounds the note again at a louder volume. Percussion has “2nd Percussion” (2nd overtone pitch) and “3rd Percussion” (3rd overtone pitch) settings, each of which can be turned on or off. You can also specify the percussion decay time, which controls how long it takes for the percussion sound to decay.

J CHORUS

The chorus effect gives sound greater depth by causing it to vibrate. You can choose from among 16 different chorus effects, including “Chorus” and “Flanger.”

The equalizer is another type of effect that you can use to make adjustments in tone quality. Frequencies are divided among a number of bands, and raising and lowering the level of each frequency band alters the sound. You can reproduce the optimal acoustics for the type of music you are playing (classics, for example) by selecting the applicable equalizer setting.

J DSP

DSP effects are applied to the connection between the sound source and output. You can select distortion and modulation effects. You can create DSP effect setups and also transfer downloaded DSP data from your computer. The keyboard has memory that lets you store up to 100 DSP effect setups. See “Using the Music Data Management Software (on the Bundled CD-ROM)” on page E-76 and “Saving the Settings of DSP Parameters” on page E-25 for more information.

J REVERB

Reverb simulates the acoustics of specific types of environments. You can choose from among 16 different reverb effects, including “Room” and “Hall.”

707A-E-025A

Selecting a DSP Type

In addition to the 100 built-in effect types, you can also edit effect types to create your own and store them in user memory. You can have up to 100 effect types in user memory at one time. You can also select the DSP type of the last DSP enabled tone that you used. This means you always have access to the DSP type of Advanced Tones and tones you download over the Internet. To select the DSP type of the last DSP enabled tone that you used, select “ton” in step 3 of the procedure below.

Perform the following steps to select a DSP type.

• When using a DSP effect, you should use the Mixer to confirm that the DSP lines of the required parts are turned on. See “Mixer Function” on page E-36 for more information.

1. Press the EFFECT button so the pointer appears

Specifies how much of the post-DSP sound should be sent to chorus.

• Whether or not an effect is applied to the parts that are sounding also depends on Mixer Mode Reverb Send, Chorus Send, and DSP on/off settings. See “Mixer Function” on page E-36 for more information.

• Playing a demo tune (page E-11) automatically changes the effect to the one that is assigned to the tune. You cannot change or cancel a demo tune effect.

• Changing the effect setting while sound is being output by the keyboard causes a slight break in the sound when the effect changes.

• A number of tones, called “Advanced Tones,” automatically turn on the DSP line for richer, higher quality sound. If you assign an Advanced Tone to a keyboard part (Channels 1 through 4), the DSP line turns on automatically and the DSP selection changes in accordance with the settings of the Advanced Tone. Also, the Mixer Mode DSP line on/off setting for the keyboard part to which the Advanced Tone is assigned is turned on.* * The Mixer DSP line setting is automatically turned off for

each part that does not have an Advanced Tone assigned. Because of this, DSP effects previously applied to these parts are cancelled, which can make their tone sound different. In this case, display the Mixer screen and turn DSP back on.
