•
Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument,
since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.
•
Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or
connectors.
•
Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high
or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent
hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the
ears, consult a physician.
Saving data
Saving and backing up your data
•
Current memory data (see page 39) is lost when you turn off the
power to the instrument. Save the data to a floppy disk/the User
Drive (see page 39).
Saved data may be lost due to malfunction or incorrect operation. Save important data to a floppy disk.
When you change settings in a display page and then exit
from that page, System Setup data (listed in the Parameter
Chart of the separate Data List booklet) is automatically
stored. However, this edited data is lost if you turn off the
power without properly exiting from the relevant display.
Backing up the floppy disk
•
To protect against data loss through media damage, we recom-
mend that you save your important data onto two floppy disks.

Handling the Floppy Disk Drive (FDD) and Floppy Disk
Be sure to handle floppy disks and treat the disk drive with care. Follow the important precautions below.
Compatible Disk Type
• 3.5" 2DD and 2HD type floppy disks can be used.
Inserting/Ejecting Floppy Disks
To insert a floppy disk into the disk drive:
• Hold the disk so that the label of the disk is facing
upward and the sliding shutter is facing forward,
towards the disk slot. Carefully insert the disk into the
slot, slowly pushing it all the way in until it clicks into
place and the eject button pops out.
Drive lamp
When the power is turned on, the drive lamp (at
the bottom left of the drive) lights to indicate the
drive can be used.
• Never attempt to remove the disk or turn the power off
when the data is being written to the floppy disk.
Doing so can damage the disk and possibly the disk
drive. Press the eject button slowly as far as it will go;
the disk will automatically pop out. When the disk is
fully ejected, carefully remove it by hand.
• If the eject button is pressed too quickly, or if it is not
pressed in as far as it will go, the disk may not eject
properly. The eject button may become stuck in a halfpressed position with the disk extending from the
drive slot by only a few millimeters. If this happens, do
not attempt to pull out the partially ejected disk, since
using force in this situation can damage the disk drive
mechanism or the floppy disk. To remove a partially
ejected disk, try pressing the eject button once again,
or push the disk back into the slot and then repeat the
eject procedure.
• Be sure to remove the floppy disk from the disk drive
before turning off the power. A floppy disk left in the
drive for extended periods can easily pick up dust and
dirt that can cause data read and write errors.
To eject a floppy disk:
Before ejecting the disk, be sure to confirm that data
is not being written to the floppy disk.
If data is currently being written to the floppy disk in
the following operations, the messages “Now
executing,” “Now copying,” and “Now formatting”
appears in the display.
• Moving, copying, pasting, saving, or deleting data
(page 42 - 44).
• Naming files and folders (page 41); creating a new
folder (page 44).
• Copying a disk to an another disk (page 150);
formatting the disk (page 150).
Cleaning the Disk Drive Read/Write Head
• Clean the read/write head regularly. This instrument
employs a precision magnetic read/write head which,
after an extended period of use, will pick up a layer of
magnetic particles from the disks used that will
eventually cause read and write errors.
• To maintain the disk drive in optimum working order
Yamaha recommends that you use a commerciallyavailable dry-type head cleaning disk to clean the
head about once a month. Ask your Yamaha dealer
about the availability of proper head-cleaning disks.
• Never insert anything but floppy disks into the disk
drive. Other objects may cause damage to the disk
drive or floppy disks.

About the Floppy Disks
To handle floppy disks with care:
• Do not place heavy objects on a disk or bend or apply
pressure to the disk in any way. Always keep floppy
disks in their protective cases when they are not in
use.
• Do not expose the disk to direct sunlight, extremely
high or low temperatures, or excessive humidity, dust
or liquids.
• Do not open the sliding shutter and touch the exposed
surface of the floppy disk inside.
• Do not expose the disk to magnetic fields, such as
those produced by televisions, speakers, motors, etc.,
since magnetic fields can partially or completely erase
data on the disk, rendering it unreadable.
• Never use a floppy disk with a deformed shutter or
housing.
• Do not attach anything other than the provided labels
to a floppy disk. Also make sure that labels are
attached in the proper location.
To protect 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).
write-protect tab open
(protect position)
Data backup
• For maximum data security Yamaha recommends that
you keep two copies of important data on separate
floppy disks. This gives you a backup if one disk is lost
or damaged. To make a backup disk use the Disk to
Disk function on page 150.

Power-on Procedure
When you have made all the necessary connections
(page 152) between your PSR-2000/1000 and any other
devices, make sure that all volume settings are turned
down all the way to zero. Then turn on every device in
your setup in the order of MIDI masters (senders), MIDI
slaves (receivers), then the audio equipment (mixers,
amplifiers, speakers, etc.). This ensures smooth MIDI
operation and prevents speaker damage.
When powering down the setup, first turn down the
volume for each audio device, then switch off each
device in the reverse order (first audio devices, then
MIDI).
To electrical outlet
Connect the other end (normal AC plug) to the
4
nearest electrical outlet.
WARNING
Do not attempt to use an AC adaptor other than the Yamaha PA300 or an equivalent recommended by Yamaha. The use of an
incompatible adaptor may cause irreparable damage to the PSR2000/1000, and may even pose a serious shock hazard! ALWAYS
UNPLUG THE AC ADAPTOR FROM THE AC POWER OUTLET
WHEN THE PSR-2000/1000 IS NOT IN USE.
CAUTION
Never interrupt the power supply (e.g. unplug the AC adaptor)
during any PSR-2000/1000 record operation! Doing so can result
in a loss of data.
CAUTION
Even when the switch is in the “STANDBY” position, electricity
is still flowing to the instrument at a minimum level. When not
using the PSR-2000/1000 for an extended period of time, be sure
to unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet.

XG Format
XG is a new Yamaha MIDI specification which significantly
expands and improves on the “GM System Level 1” standard
with greater voice handling capacity, expressive control, and
effect capability while retaining full compatibility with GM. By
using the PSR-2000/1000 XG voices, it is possible to record
XG-compatible song files.
XF Format
The Yamaha XF format enhances the SMF (Standard MIDI File)
standard with greater functionality and open-ended
expandability for the future. The PSR-2000/1000 is capable of
displaying lyrics when an XF file containing lyric data is played.
(SMF is the most common format used for MIDI sequence files.
The PSR-2000/1000 is compatible with SMF Formats 0 and 1,
and records “song” data using SMF Format 0.)
Vocal Harmony (PSR-2000 only)
Vocal Harmony employs state-of-the-art digital signal
processing technology to automatically add appropriate vocal
harmony to a lead vocal line sung by the user. Vocal Harmony
can even change the character and gender of the lead voice as
well as the added voices to produce a wide range of vocal
harmony effects.
Disk Orchestra Collection
The DOC voice allocation format provides data playback
compatibility with a wide range of Yamaha instruments and
MIDI devices.
Style File Format
The Style File Format (SFF) is Yamaha’s original style file format,
which uses a unique conversion system to provide high-quality
automatic accompaniment based on a wide range of chord
types. The PSR-2000/1000 uses the SFF internally, reads
optional SFF style disks, and creates SFF styles using the Style
Creator feature.

Basic Operations — Organizing Your Data
The PSR-2000/1000 utilizes a variety of data types — including voices, accompaniment styles, songs, multi pads and
registration memory settings. Much of this data is already programmed and contained in the PSR-2000/1000; you can
also create and edit your own data with some of the functions on the instrument.
All this data is stored in separate files — just as is done on a computer.
Here, we’ll show you how to use the basic operations of the display controls in handling and organizing the data of the
PSR-2000/1000 in files and folders.
Files can be opened, saved, named, moved, or deleted in their respective Open/Save displays. You can select these
displays according to their respective file types, as well: Song, Voice, Style, etc. Moreover, you can organize your data
efficiently by putting various files of the same type into a single folder.
The Open/Save displays for Song, Voice, Style, Multi Pad Bank and Registration Bank can be called up from the MAIN
display (the display shown when the power is turned on) by pressing the appropriate [A] - [J] button.

Basic Operations — Organizing Your Data
Example — Open/Save display for Voice
Each Open/Save display consists of PRESET, USER, and FLOPPY DISK drive pages.
PRESET drive
The files that are preprogrammed and installed
internally to the PSR-2000/1000
are kept here. Preset files can be
loaded but cannot be re-written.
However, you can use a preset
file as a basis for creating your
own original file (which can be
saved in the USER or FLOPPY
DISK drive).
USER drive
Files kept here are those
containing your own original
data, created or edited using the
various functions of the PSR2000/1000. They are stored
internally to the PSR-2000/1000.
FLOPPY DISK drive
You can also store your original
data to floppy disk.
Commercially available disk
software can also be called up
here. Naturally, these files are
available only when the
appropriate disk is inserted in
the floppy disk drive.

“Current Memory” is the area where the voice is
called up when you select a voice. Also it is the
area where you edit your voice using the SOUND
CREATOR function. Your edited voice should then
be saved as a file in the USER or FLOPPY DISK
drive.
The selected voice itself (un-edited) can also be saved as
a file in the USER or FLOPPY DISK drive.

The language can also be selected in
the FUNCTION “LANGUAGE”
(page 151) display.
When “JAPANESE” is selected for the
Language parameter, and you
change this to one of the western languages, the kanji and kana characters of the file name stored in the disk
drive are changed to western characters. In the opposite case, special
Latin characters and marks are
changed into normal characters.
Also, in the case of floppy disk data,
text in the files are changed to characters that cannot be read by the
instrument.
Keep in mind that similar problems
may occur when trying to access files
originating or edited by a computer
having a different language operating
system. In general, be careful when
switching languages — you risk not
being able to access the data properly.
Help messages also feature links to the detailed explanation or actual

XG is a major enhancement
of the GM System level 1 format, and was developed by
Yamaha specially to provide
more voices and variations,
as well as greater expressive
control over voices and
effects, and to ensure compatibility of data well into the
future.
Voice Characteristics
The voice type and its defining characteristics are indicated above the voice name.
Live! (PSR-2000 only)
These acoustic instrument sounds were sampled in stereo, to produce a truly authentic, rich sound — full of
atmosphere and ambience.
Cool!
These voices capture the dynamic textures and subtle nuances of electric instruments — thanks to a huge amount
of memory and some very sophisticated programming.
Sweet!
These acoustic instrument sounds also benefit from Yamaha’s sophisticated technology — and feature a sound so
finely detailed and natural, you’ll swear you’re playing the real thing!
Drum
Various drum and percussion sounds are assigned to individual keys, letting you play the sounds from the
keyboard.
SFX
Various special effect sounds are assigned to individual keys, letting you play the sounds from the keyboard.
Organ Flutes! (PSR-2000 only)
This authentic organ voice lets you use the Sound Creator to adjust the various footages and craft your own
original organ sounds.
Keyboard Percussion
When one of the drum of SFX kits is selected in the PERCUSSION voice group, various drum, percussion, and special
effect sounds are assigned to individual keys, letting you play the sounds from the keyboard. The various drums and
percussion instruments of the Standard Kit are indicated by symbols below the assigned keys. Keep in mind that even
though different kits feature different sounds, some same-named sounds in different kits are identical.
Refer to the separate Data List (Drum/key Assignment List) for a listing of the sounds in each drum/SFX kit.

EFFECT
■ DSP
The PSR-2000/1000 features a variety of dynamic built-in digital effects, letting you
process the sound in various ways. You can use DSP to enhance the voices in subtle ways
— such as by applying chorus to add animation and depth, or using a symphonic effect to
give the sound warmth and richness. DSP also has effects such as distortion that can
completely change the character of the sound.
The DSP and VARIATION
effect types and the their
depth can be selected and
adjusted in the MIXING CON-
SOLE display (page 124).
PSR-2000/1000
57
Page 58
Voices
PITCH BEND
The maximum pitch bend
range can be changed
(page 123).
MODULATION
In order to avoid accidentally
applying modulation set the
depth to its minimum setting.
■ VARIATION
This control changes the Variation effect settings, letting you alter some aspect of the effect, depending on the selected
type. For example, when the Rotary Speaker effect is selected (page 124), this lets you switch the rotor speed between
slow and fast.
■ HARMONY/ECHO
This control adds Harmony or Echo effects to the voices played on the right hand section
of the keyboard (page 143).
■ MONO
This control determines whether the voice is played monophonically (only one note at a
time) or polyphonically for each part (MAIN/LAYER/LEFT). This is set to MONO when the
lamp is lit, and set to polyphonic when the lamp is off. When set to MONO, only the last
note played will sound. This lets you play wind instrument voices more realistically.
Depending on the selected voice, the MONO setting also lets you effectively use the
Portamento effect, when playing in legato.
■ LEFT HOLD
This function causes the left part voice to be held even when the keys are released — the
same effect as when the sustain pedal is pressed. This function is especially effective when
used with the auto accompaniment. For example, if you play and release a chord in the
auto accompaniment section of the keyboard (with the left part on and the Left voice set
to Strings), the strings part sustains, adding a natural richness to the overall
accompaniment sound.
The Portamento effect creates
a smooth pitch glide between
successively played notes.
You can add special emphasis to melody lines you play
over chords by using the
Layer function with a monophonic voice. Set the Main
voice to play polyphonically
and set the Layer voice to
play monophonically
(MONO). In this case, the
melody you play — including
the top notes of any chords
— sounds monophonically.
Try this using the following
voices.
MAIN voice
(polyphonic) +
Sweet Trump (monophonic)
: Brass Section
LAYER voice
:
PITCH BEND Wheel & MODULATION Wheel
Use the PSR-2000/1000 PITCH BEND
wheel to bend notes up (roll the wheel away
from you) or down (roll the wheel toward
you) while playing the keyboard. The PITCH
BEND wheel is self-centering and will
automatically return to normal pitch when
released.
The Modulation function applies a vibrato
effect to notes played on the keyboard (PSR-
2000). Moving the MODULATION wheel
all the way towards yourself minimizes the
depth of the effect, while rotating it away
from yourself increases it.
Adjusting the Octave setting
The [UPPER OCTAVE] button allows the MAIN and LAYER parts to be simultaneously
transposed up or down by one octave.

Accompaniment Style Characteristics
The accompaniment style type and its defining characteristics are indicated above the style name.
Session!
These styles provide even greater realism and authentic backing by mixing in original chord types and changes, as well as special riffs with
chord changes, with the Main sections. These have been programmed to add “spice” and a professional touch to your performances of
certain songs and in certain genres. As a result, the styles may not necessarily be appropriate — or even harmonically correct — for all
songs and for all chord playing. In some cases for example, playing a simple major triad may result in a seventh chord, or playing an on-bass
chord may result in incorrect or unexpected accompaniment.
Piano Combo! (Floppy Disk)
These accompaniment styles feature a basic piano trio (piano, bass, and drums), augmented in some cases with other instruments. Since
this is a small combo sound, the accompaniment backing is appropriately sparse, making it useful and effective for a wide variety of songs.

Chord Fingerings
The style playback can be controlled by the chords you play in the keys to the left of the split point. There are 7 types of
fingerings as described below. Go to the CHORD FINGERING page (page 139), and select the Chord Fingerings. The
page shows how to play chords with your left hand.
SINGLE FINGER
Single Finger accompaniment makes it simple to produce beautifully orchestrated accompaniment using major,
seventh, minor and minor-seventh chords by pressing a minimum number of keys on the auto accompaniment section
of the keyboard. The abbreviated chord fingerings described below are used.
For a major chord, press the root key only. For a minor chord, simultaneously press the root key
and a black key to its left.
For a seventh chord, simultaneously press the root
key and a white key to its left.
For a minor-seventh chord, simultaneously press the
root key and both a white and black key to its left.
MULTI FINGER
The Multi Finger mode automatically detects Single Finger or Fingered chord fingerings,
so you can use either type of fingering without having to switch fingering modes. If you
want to play minor, seventh, or minor-seventh chords using the SINGLE FINGER
operation in the MULTI FINGER Mode, always press the closest white/black key(s) to the
root of the chord.
FINGERED
This mode lets you produce accompaniment by playing full chords on the auto
accompaniment section of the keyboard. The Fingered mode recognizes the various
chord types listed on the next page.
FINGERED ON BASS
This mode accepts the same fingerings as the FINGERED mode, but the lowest note
played in the auto accompaniment section of the keyboard is used as the bass note,
allowing you to play “on bass” chords. For example, to indicate a C-on-E chord, play a C
major chord with E as the lowest note (E, G, C).
FULL KEYBOARD
This method detects chords in the entire key range. Chords are detected in a way similar
to Fingered, even if you split the notes between your left and right hands — for example,
playing a bass note with your left hand and a chord with your right, or by playing a chord
with your left hand and a melody note with your right.
Chord detection in the AI
Full Keyboard mode occurs
at approximately 8th-note
intervals. Extremely short
chords — less than an 8th
note in length — may not be
detected.
In Full Keyboard mode,
chords are detected based
on the lowest and second
lowest notes you play. If the
two lowest notes fall within a
single octave, those two
notes determine the chord. If
the lowest note and the second lowest note are separated by more than one
octave, the lowest note
becomes the bass and the
chord is determined from the
second lowest note and the
other notes played in the
same octave.
AI FINGERED
This mode is basically the same as FINGERED, with the exception that less than three
notes can be played to indicate the chords (based on the previously played chord, etc.).
AI
Artificial Intelligence
AI FULL KEYBOARD
When this advanced auto accompaniment mode is engaged, the PSR-2000/1000 will automatically create appropriate
accompaniment while you play just about anything, anywhere on the keyboard using both hands. You don’t have to
worry about specifying the accompaniment chords. Although the AI Full Keyboard mode is designed to work with many
songs, some arrangements may not be suitable for use with this feature.
This mode is similarto FULL KEYBOARD, with the exception that less than three notes can be played to indicate the
chords (based on the previously played chord, etc.). 9th and 11th chords cannot be played.

■ EG
The EG (Envelope Generator) settings determine how the level of the sound changes in time. This lets you reproduce
many sound characteristics of natural acoustic instruments — such as the quick attack and decay of percussion
sounds, or the long release of a sustained piano tone.
• ATTACK ...... Determines how quickly the sound reaches its maximum
level after the key is played. The higher the value, the
slower the attack.
• DECAY........ Determines how quickly the sound reaches its sustain
level (a slightly lower level than maximum). The higher
the value, the slower the decay.
• RELEASE ..... Determines how quickly the sound decays to silence after
the key is released. The higher the value, the slower the release.
If RELEASE is set to a large
value, the sustain becomes
long.

The term “footage” is a reference to the sound generation of traditional pipe organs, in which the sound
is produced by pipes of different lengths (in feet). The longer the pipe, the lower the pitch of the sound.
Hence, the 16’ setting determines the lowest pitched component of the voice, while the 1’ setting
determines the highest pitched component. The higher the value of the setting, the greater the volume

About Song Recording
■ Quick Recording (page 93)
This is the easiest recording method, and lets you quickly record the piano
song you are practicing. You can select from four parts: right hand, left hand
and auto accompaniment/multi pad. For example, you can record only your
right hand performance, or you can simultaneously record both your right
hand and the auto accompaniment.
■ Multi Recording (page 94)
This lets you record a song with several different instrument sounds, and create
the sound of a full band or orchestra. Record the performance of each
instrument individually and create fully orchestrated compositions. You can
also record over an existing part on an internal song or a song on disk with
your own performance.
■ Step Recording (page 96)
This method is like writing music notation on paper. It lets you enter each note
individually, by specifying the pitch and length. This is ideal for making precise
recordings, or for recording parts that are difficult to play.
■ Song Editing (page 102)
The PSR-2000/1000 also lets you edit the songs you’ve recorded by the Quick
Recording, Multi Recording and Step Recording methods.

Recording Chord Changes for the Auto Accompaniment — Step Record (Chord)
The Chord Step recording feature makes it possible to record auto accompaniment chord changes one at a time with
precise timing. Since the changes don’t have to be played in real time, you can easily create complex, tight chord
changes — over which you can record the melody in normal fashion.
The operations here apply to step 6 on page 97.
