Yamaha PSR-1700 User Manual

Taking Care of Your PortaTone

Your PortaTone will give 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.

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.

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

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.

ZOpen 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.

CReplace 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.

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.

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.

PSR-1700

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.

VCE=00–1:GrandPno

 

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 PSR-

 

1700/PSR-2700 is processing the data (for example recorded data) or

 

 

 

 

ready to process it.

PERCUSSION

..................................................................................................................................

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:

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.

2-4: The Data Dial

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.

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.

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.

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 SE-

LECT] 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 NO

ARE YOU SURE ?

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.

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.

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] single-

voice mode, the triangular EDIT indicator for the se-

 

lected 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.

In the dual mode both the

 

[R1] and

voices are selected so they can be played simultane-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ously across the entire keyboard. To select the dual

Split Modes

The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 allow four different

 

split modes, with one voice played on the left-hand

 

section of the keyboard (

[L1] or [L2] ) and a different

voice on the right-hand section of the keyboard (

[R1]

or [R2]). Selecting a split mode is simply a matter of

 

pressing the buttons corresponding to the desired

 

leftand right-hand parts.

 

 

The split point (i.e. the key at which the voices change over) can be set at any desired key by using the SPLIT POINT CHANGE function described on page 20.

The Harmony Types

 

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

01: Duet

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.

 

 

 

A parallel voice is produced a fifth above the

02: 1 + 5

melody voice. As in the Duet type, the R1 and R2

 

voices can be set individually in the dual mode.

 

 

 

Similar to Duet, but the second voice is above the

03: Country

melody line. The R1 and R2 voices can be set

 

individually in the dual mode.

 

 

 

This harmony type generates two voices in addi-

04: Trio

tion to the melody voice. Both of the harmony

 

voices are assigned to R2 in the dual mode.

 

 

 

Three or four notes are added to the melody to

 

produce four or five-note chords. In the dual mode

05: Block

the highest and lowest voices (always one octave

 

apart) are assigned to R1, and the inner two or

 

three notes are assigned to R2.

 

 

 

Three harmony notes are generated to produce a

06: 4-way

four-note chord. If both the R1 and R2 voices are

turned on (dual mode), the 1st (melody) and 3rd

close 1

notes are assigned to R1 while the 2nd and 4th

 

 

are assigned to R2.

 

 

 

Similar to the preceding type, but depending on

07: 4-way

the chords played this type will sometimes pro-

duce a more colorful sound. The note assignment

close 2

in the dual mode is also different: 1st and 2nd

 

 

notes to R1, 3rd and 4th notes to R2.

 

 

 

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

08: 4-way

as two octaves below the melody, avoid playing in

the lower registers. With certain voices you might

open

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.

 

 

 

One note is added an octave below the melody.

09: Octave

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.

Pitch Bend

+

PITCH BEND

The PITCH BEND wheel to the left of the keyboard allows the pitch of notes played on the keyboard to be bent up or down — roll the wheel away from you to bend up, and toward you to bend down (this situation can be reversed, as described below). When the PITCH BEND wheel is moved almost all the way in either direction, the current pitch bend range value will appear on the LCD display panel (see below).

Setting the Pitch Bend Range

The maximum amount of pitch bend produced by the PITCH BEND wheel can be set anywhere from ± 1 semitone to ± 12 semitones (i.e. plus or minus one octave).

The [TRANSPOSE] button makes it possible to shift the pitch of the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of 12 semitones (one octave). Transposing the pitch of the keyboard makes it easier to play in difficult key signatures, and you can easily match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instrumentalist.

The transposition range is from –12 to +12, with –12 corresponding to downward transposition by 12 semitones (one octave), and +12 corresponding to upward transposition by 12 semitones. 00 is the “normal” keyboard pitch value. The normal transpose value (00) can be recalled instantly by pressing both the [+] and [–] buttons at the same time.

NOTES

• The new transpose value will apply from the next note played — i.e.

you can’t transpose the sound of a note while it is playing.

 

Tuning

The [TUNING] button makes it possible to tune the pitch of the PSR-1700/PSR-2700 to match other instruments. Tuning can be accomplished over a ± 50-cent range (that’s 100 cents total, or one semitone) in 33 steps.

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)

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.

*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 m7

b5.

*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.

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.

Minor-seventh Chords:

Simultaneously press the root key and both a white and black key to its left.

NOTES

• 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.

PSR-1700

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 inter-

 

preted 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 sev-

 

enth (7) chord.
