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.

•A power adaptor, if used, should be unplugged from the AC outlet if the instrument is not to be used for an extended period of time.

•Unplug the power adaptor during electric storms.

•Avoid plugging the power adaptor 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-510 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.

YAMAHA is not responsible for damage caused by improper handling or operation.

Preparation

This section contains information about setting up your PSR-510 and preparing to play.

Be sure to go through this section carefully before using your PSR-510.

■ Power Supply

Your PSR-510 will run either from an optional power adaptor or batteries*. Follow the instructions below according to the power source you intend to use.

*When batteries are used the sound of the PSR-510 may be distorted at high volume levels. This is because the power of the amplifier is reduced when batteries are used.

CAUTION

• Never interrupt the power supply (e.g. remove the batteries or unplug the AC adaptor) during any PSR-510 record operation! Doing so can result in a loss of data.

● Using An Optional AC Power Adaptor

DC 10-12V IN

		PA-3,
		PA-4,
		PA-5,			AC power
		PA-5B,			socket
		or
		PA-40

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

Plug the DC output cable from an optional Yamaha PA-3, PA-4, PA-5, PA5B, or PA-40 AC Power Adaptor into the DC IN jack on the rear panel of the PSR-510, then plug the Power Adaptor (or the AC cable of the Power Adaptor) into a convenient wall AC power socket. The internal batteries are automatically disconnected when an AC Power Adaptor is used.

	CAUTION	• Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-3, PA-4, PA-5, PA-5B, or PA-40 AC Power
		Adaptor to power your instrument from the AC mains. The use of
		other adaptors may result in irreparable damage to both the adaptor
		and the PSR-510.
	NOTES	• Using the PA-5 with the PSR-510 will provide a slight increase in the
		overall volume.

● Using Batteries .......................................................................................................................................

For battery operation the PSR-510 requires six 1.5V SUM-1, “D” size, R-20 or equivalent batteries. When the batteries need to be replaced the volume may be reduced, the sound may be distorted, and other

problems may occur. When this happens, turn the power off while either the batteries are replaced or an AC adaptor is connected.

When the batteries fail, replace them as follows:

ZOpen the battery compartment cover located on the instrument’s bottom panel.

XInsert the six 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 six 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.

Preparation

■ Using Headphones Or an External Sound System

HEADPHONES/
	AUX OUT

A standard pair of stereo headphones can be plugged into the rear-panel HEADPHONES/AUX OUT 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/AUX OUT jack. The HEADPHONES/AUX OUT jack can also be used to deliver the output of the PSR-510 to a keyboard amplifier, stereo sound system, mixing console or tape recorder.

Stereo sound system

■ The Sustain Pedal

SUSTAIN PEDAL

An optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitch can be plugged into the rear-panel SUSTAIN PEDAL jack. The sustain pedal functions as a damper pedal, controlling sustain. Press the pedal to sustain notes after the keys are released.

	NOTES	• Be sure that you do not press the pedal while inserting the plug
		into the SUSTAIN PEDAL jack or while turning the power on. If
		you do, the ON/OFF status of the footswitch will be reversed.
		This function has been implemented to allow either press-to-
		make or press-to-break contact type footswitches to be used with
		the PSR-510.

■ The Music Stand

Insert the bottom edge of the music stand into the slot located at the rear of the PSR-510 control panel.

Basic Editing Procedure

The PSR-510 features 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:

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 number shown on the MULTI DISPLAY will be the current value of the selected parameter.

KEYBOARD

XEdit the Parameter ..................................................................................................................................

The PSR-510 lets 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 (except for the SPLIT POINT 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 MULTI DISPLAY shows that voice number 36 is currently selected, you can select voice number 37 simply by pressing the [VOICE SELECT] button again.

+– 9 1__

The [+ ] and [− ] buttons immediately to the right of the MULTI DISPLAY 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” — shown on the panel VOICE list, 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 MULTI DISPLAY.

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 MULTI DISPLAY.

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 ro-
	tate 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, “---” will appear on the MULTI DISPLAY.

●Yes/No Confirmation

ARE YOU SURE ?

YES 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 batteries are installed on an AC adaptor is connected.

■ Orchestration

The unique ORCHESTRATION button group in the PSR-510’s 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 PSR-510’s 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
Left-hand voice 1	(or single voice)
ORCHESTRATION
L1	R1
EDIT
L2	R2
Left-hand voice 2	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 PSR-510’s 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 12.

● Dual Mode

In the dual mode both the	[R1]and [R2]part
voices are selected so they can be played simultane-
ously across the entire keyboard. To select the dual
mode, make sure that both the	[L1] and	[L2] indica-
tors are out, then press both the	[R1]and	[R2]but-

tons 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.

	EDIT
L2	R2	The R1 & R2 voices are played

● Split Modes

The PSR-510 allows 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

● Setting the Pitch Bend Range

The PITCH BEND wheel to the left of the keyboard allows the note pitch 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 MULTI DISPLAY (see below).

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).
