The Sequencer

The PSR-5700 features an 8-track sequencer that allows you to record and play back original musical creations — along with auto accompaniment if required. You can record the accompaniment and orchestra parts separately or at the same time. If, for example, you record the accompaniment first and then record your own performance while listening to playback of the accompaniment, you’re free to use the entire keyboard for your performance rather than being limited to only the upper keyboard area. You can also play back each part independently or in any combination. For even further versatility, the PSR-5700 sequencer allows different songs to be saved to or re-loaded from floppy disk.

Recording

As you become more familiar with the PSR-5700 sequencer you’ll probably develop a recording procedure that best suits your particular musical requirements. Here, to get you started, is the most simple, straightforward way to approach sequencer recording.

CSet Up All Record Parameters

Press the [SEQUENCER] button to engage the sequencer. “SEQ” will appear on the TEMPO display if the currently selected song contains no data, or the measure number will appear if the song does contain data. The

number-1 indicator to the right of the [SONG SELECT] button will also light.

If the sequencer contains previously recorded data, the green PLAY indicators of tracks containing data will light when the sequencer is engaged. Any of these tracks can be muted prior to engaging the record-ready mode (below) by pressing the corresponding track button so that the green PLAY indicator flashes.

The sequencer can also be engaged by pressing one of the track buttons, or by pressing the [SONG SELECT] button.

DETAIL

The PSR-5700 sequencer can record up to 6 separate songs. Use the [SONG SELECT] button to select the song number you want to record. The selected song number is shown by the indicators, 1 through 6, to the right of the [SONG SELECT] button.

Select the accompaniment style you want to record with, voices, orchestration, harmony, and other parameters before actually beginning recording. A list of the parameters that can be recorded by the PSR-5700 sequencer is given below.

You may also need to select a specific record mode and other conditions accessible via the sequencer’s CONDITION/RECORD TYPE functions, described on page 7.

The time signature cannot be changed once a song has been recorded.

DETAIL

AUTO BASS CHORD accompaniment can only be recorded on the ACCOMP. track. The ORCH.1 and ORCH.2 voices can be recorded on any of the remaining 7 tracks, but only one of these tracks can be recorded at a time if the normal ORCH.1 orchestration is selected. If the ORCH.2+1 or ORCH.2v1 orchestration is selected, two record tracks must be selected — the ORCH.1 voice will be recorded on the lower-numbered track while the ORCH.2 voice will be recorded on the higher-numbered track. This means that a maximum of three record tracks can be specified when the ORCH.2+1 or ORCH.2v1 orchestration is selected: ACCOMP. and any two numbered tracks.

To select the record track(s) and engage the record-ready mode, hold the [RECORD] button and press the appropriate track button(s). The red REC indicator for the tracks will flash. Also note that the AUTO BASS CHORD indicator will light automatically when the ACCOMP. track is selected.

Press the [STOP] button to stop recording immediately, or the [ENDING/rit.] button to finish off the recording with an appropriate ending. The first measure of the sequence is automatically selected when recording is stopped.

To record a new track, simply select a new voice and other parameters as required, select a new track as described in step 4, then record. All previously recorded tracks will automatically be set to the PLAY mode so you can record the new material while listening to the material you’ve already recorded. Repeat this procedure until your sequence is complete.

Up to approximately 7,000 notes can be recorded for all six sequencer songs. The exact number of notes that can be recorded, however, will depend on the type of data

XPlay along If You Like

Since tracks are automatically set to the PLAY mode once they have been recorded, and tracks containing data are automatically set to the PLAY mode when the sequencer is initially engaged by pressing the [SEQUENCER] button, all you have to do to play back a sequence is to press the [START/RE-START] button. If you first press the [SYNCHRO START] button, sequencer playback can be started by playing any key on the keyboard.

Any of the PLAY tracks can be muted before or during playback by pressing the corresponding track button. The PLAY indicator will flash when a track is muted. Normal playback can be restored by pressing the track buttons of muted tracks a second time (the PLAY indicator will light continuously).

Before starting playback you can use the [r] and [f] buttons to move to any measure number from which you want to begin playback. The [p] button goes directly to measure number 1.

HINT

If the Super Styleplay section change parameter (page 41) is turned ON during ACCOMP. track playback, the Super Styleplay section will change in accordance with accompaniment variation transitions and the result may be different from the

DETAIL

recorded data.

You can play along with the sequence using the entire PSR-5700 keyboard, selecting different voices and changing the tempo as required (subsequently recorded tempo changes will still take effect).

Parameters That Can Be Changed During Playback

• Style select (styles with different time signatures cannot be selected)

• Volume (rhythm, bass, chord 1 & chord 2)

• Tempo

• Reverb & effect on/off

• Pad repeat and break on/off

• Interactive Accompaniment on/off & accompaniment variation

while playing.

Playback will stop automatically when the end of the sequence is reached. At this point the parameters recorded on the ACCOMP. track will revert to their initial values. You can also stop playback at any time by pressing the [STOP] button.

Press the [EXIT] key to exit the sequencer mode and return to the normal play mode. The sequencer mode can also be exited by pressing the [SEQUENCER] button.

Sequence Editing

The Sequencer

RECORD DELETE EDIT

The PSR-5700 sequencer edit mode offers a range of functions that let you modify the re-

corded data and the way in which it is recorded in a number of ways.

Press the [EDIT] button while the sequencer is engaged to enter the sequencer edit mode.

prf

When you’re finished editing press the [EDIT] button again or press the [EXIT] button to return to the sequencer.

The various functions in the sequencer edit mode are accessed by using the [s] and [t] buttons (these are the same as the [ABC MODE] and [HARMONY TYPE] buttons, respectively), while the various display screens provided by each function are accessed by using the [<] and [>] buttons (the [TRANSPOSE/TUNE] and [OCTAVE CHANGE] buttons, respectively).

E1 CONDITION/REC TYPE

Edit function 1 (“E1”) actually includes two separate functions: CONDITION and RECORD TYPE.

● Condition

`CONDITION/REC TYPE ‡

Metro=On Harmony=Key

+– +–

Purpose:

This display page allows the recording metronome sound to be turned on or off, and determines whether harmony will be applied to the keyboard or a track part.

Procedure:

Use the left [-] and [+] buttons to turn the metronome on or off, and the right [-] and [+] buttons to select the harmony part — “Key” or “Tr1” through “Tr7”.

Notes:

The metronome sound only appears during recording

when no rhythm is playing.

When the “Key” harmony setting is selected (this is the default setting when the sequencer mode is engaged), harmony will be applied to notes played on the keyboard. If the “Tr1” harmony setting is selected, harmony will be applied to the track-1 part. If “Tr2” is selected harmony is applied to track 2, and so on.

If Harmony is not turned on during recording, it will automatically be turned off each time playback is stopped if it is turned on before or during playback.

Harmony can only be applied to tracks that contain data.

The Sequencer

● Recording Type

† `REC TYPE

Mode=Replace

+–

Purpose:

Selects the Replace, Overdub, or Punch record mode.

Procedure:

Press the [>] button to access the REC TYPE display. Use the left [-] and [+] buttons to select the Replace, Overdub, or Punch record mode:

• Replace

If replace recording is selected, any previous data on the track being recorded will be erased and replaced by the new material.

• Overdub

If overdub recording is selected, previous material on that track will be retained and the new material will be added to it.

• Punch

Punch-in recording allows a specified measure or range of measures to be re-recorded (replaced) without affecting previously recorded material before and after the punch-in range.

When the Punch mode is selected you must also specify the measure from which playback is to begin prior to the “punch-in” point at which recording will actually begin (Play St), the punch-in measure from which recording is

to begin (In), and the punch-out measure at which recording is to end (Out). Use the [<] and [>] buttons to switch between these two display screens, and the associated [-] and [+] buttons to specify the required measure numbers.

† `REC TYPE ‡

Mode=Punch Play St= 1

+– +–

† `Punch IN/OUT MEAS.

In= 1 Out= 1

+– +–

Notes:

It’s generally convenient to set the “Play St” measure in the Punch mode to just a few measures before the punch-in point. This allows you to get the feel of the music and prepare to start playing at the punch-in point. You can even play along with the material prior to the actual punch-in point so you’ll flow naturally into the punch-in recording range.

A footswitch (the supplied FC5 footswitch can be used) plugged into the rear-panel FOOT SW jack can also be used to punch-in and punch-out when the footswitch “Punch In” function is selected via the “FOOT SWITCH SELECT” function described on page 37. With the sequencer running in the Punch Record mode, press the footswitch at the point you want to begin recording (i.e. to “punch in”), and again to stop recording (punch out).

Please note that the punch-in record function can only be used on tracks that already contain recorded material.

E2 VOLUME

“VOL. 1~2'3~4'5~6'7~ _

99/81/99/81/99/81/99

+– +–

Purpose:

This page lets you independently set the playback volume

of each of the sequencer’s seven orchestra tracks.

Procedure:

Use the [<] and [>] buttons to position the cursor at the

volume parameter of the track you want to adjust (1 through

7, from left to right), then use either the left or right [-] and [+] buttons to set the volume to a value between “00” (minimum volume — no sound) and “99” (maximum volume). Vertical bar-graphs to the right of each track number on the top line of the display provide a graphic representation of the track volume levels.

Notes:

Only tracks that contain data are available for volume control.

Any recorded volume changes will override these settings.

E3 TRACK COPY/MIX

The Sequencer

£TRACK COPY/MIX ‡

Source1=Tr1 Source2=Tr2

+– +–

† £COPY/MIX Tr1+Tr2 Dest.=Tr1 Execute

+– +–

Purpose:

Copies the data from one recorded track to another, or mixes the data from two recorded tracks (except the ACCOMP. track).

● Copy

Source track 1

Data

Copy to Destination track

Data

● Mix

Source track 1

Data

Source track 2

Data

Destination track (mix result)

Procedure:

Use the [<] and [>] buttons to switch between the two display screens, and the left or right [-] and [+] buttons to set the first source track (Source1), the second source track (Source2), and the destination track (Dest.). If “CopyToDest.” is selected for the Source2 parameter, only the Source1 track is copied to the destination track.

Once the source and destination tracks have been selected, press the [+] button below “Execute” on the right side of the display to actually execute the mixdown operation. “Sequencer Executing!” will appear on the lower line of the display while the operation is in progress, and “Completed!” will appear briefly when the operation has finished.

Immediately after execution “Undo” will appear above the right [-] button, and that button can be used to undo the mixdown if it was executed by mistake. The undo function is only available until the next operation is performed.

Notes:

The mix function is most useful when you want to record more than 7 individual parts on the seven orchestra-part tracks. Successfully recorded parts can be combined using this function, thus opening up more tracks for further recording. The data in the source tracks is not erased during a mix operation.

If the tracks that are mixed use different voices, the voice of the lower-numbered track will be used. Subsequent recorded voice changes will operate normally.

Please note that only tracks containing data can be specified as the source tracks.

Any data in the destination track will be overwritten by data copied from the source 1 and 2 tracks.

E4 QUANTIZE

¢QUANTIZE 1/32 ‡

+– +–

Purpose:

Aligns notes in the specified track to the nearest specified

beat.

One measure of 8th notes before quantization

eeee eee

After quantization

eeeeeeee

Procedure:

Use the [<] and [>] buttons to switch between the two display screens, and the left [-] and [+] buttons to set the track number (Track) and the quantize size (Size).

Once the track number and quantize size have been selected, press the [+] button below “Execute” on the right side of the display to actually execute the quantize operation. “Sequencer Executing!” will appear on the lower line of the display while the operation is in progress, and “Completed!” will appear briefly when the operation has finished.

Immediately after execution “Undo” will appear above the right [-] button, and that button can be used to undo the quantize operation if it was executed by mistake. The undo function is only available until the next operation is performed.

The Quantize Sizes are:

1/4 = 1/4 note 1/6 = 1/4 note triplet 1/8 = 1/8 note 1/12 = 1/8 note triplet 1/16 = 1/16 note 1/24 = 1/16 note triplet 1/32 = 1/32 note 1/96 = maximum resolution

Notes:

Quantization is generally used to tighten up sloppy timing. Use it judiciously, however, because timing that is too perfect can sound cold and mechanical — unless, of course, you’re specifically aiming for a cold, mechanical feel. Always use a quantize value that is at least as “short” as the shortest notes in the track to be quantized. If you quantize a track containing 16th notes to 1/8 (8th notes), for example, some of the 16th notes will be aligned with 8th note beats, thus ruining the track.

E5 DELETE ALL TRACKS

The Sequencer

DELETE ALL TRACKS ‡

TopMeas= 4 LastMeas= 6

+– +–

† DELETE from 4 to 6

Execute

Purpose:

Deletes the specified measure or range of measures from

all tracks (including the accompaniment track).

Delete Measures 4 through 6.

123456789

Measure 4 through 6 deleted.

123 789

Subsequent measures moved back.

123456

Procedure:

Use the [<] and [>] buttons to switch between the two display screens, and the left or right [-] and [+] buttons in the first display screen to specify the number of the first measure in the range to be deleted (TopMeas) and the number of the last measure in the range to be deleted (LastMeas).

Once the top and last measure numbers have been selected, press the [+] button below “Execute” on the right side of the second display screen to actually execute the delete operation. “Sequencer Executing!” will appear on the lower line of the display while the operation is in progress, and “Completed!” will appear briefly when the operation has finished.

Notes:

It’s important to remember that a delete operation affects all tracks simultaneously, and that measures following the deleted range are moved back to take the place of the deleted measures. This differentiates the delete job from the erase job (described later), which replaces data in the specified range with rests.

Be careful when deleting measures that contain effect on/ off events — e.g. pitch bend, modulation, sustain, harmony, etc. If, for example, you delete a measure that contains a pitch bend off event, the pitch bend applied in a previous measure will remain in effect until the next pitch bend event is encountered.

The delete operation has no “undo” function, so be absolutely sure you want to delete the selected material before actually executing the delete operation.

123456789

Procedure:

Use the [<] and [>] buttons to switch between the two display screens, and the left or right [-] and [+] buttons in the first display screen to specify the number of the measure at which the blank measures are to be inserted (TopMeas) and the number of blank measures to be inserted (Size).

Once the top measure number and size have been selected, press the [+] button below “Execute” on the right side of the second display screen to actually execute the insert operation. “Sequencer Executing!” will appear on the lower line of the display while the operation is in progress, and “Completed!” will appear briefly when the operation has finished.

Notes:

Insert affects all tracks simultaneously. The specified number of blank measures is inserted before the existing data beginning at the specified insert measure number.

The insert operation has no “undo” function.

E7 ERASE

Purpose:

Erases all note and event (pitch bend, volume changes, etc.) data from the specified measure or range of measures in the specified track (accompaniment track not available), leaving blank measures.

Erase measures 4 through 6.

TRACK 1

123456789

Measures 4 — 6 “blank, ”

containing only rests.

Procedure:

Use the [<] and [>] buttons to switch between the two display screens, and the left or right [-] and [+] buttons to set the track number (Track), the number of the first measure in the range to be erased (TopMeas), and the number of the last measure in the range to be erased (LastMeas).

Once the track and measure numbers have been selected, press the [+] button below “Execute” on the right side of the display to actually execute the erase operation. “Sequencer Executing!” will appear on the lower line of the display while the operation is in progress, and “Completed!” will appear briefly when the operation has finished.

Immediately after execution “Undo” will appear above the right [-] button, and that button can be used to undo the erase operation if it was executed by mistake. The undo function is only available until the next operation is performed.

Notes:

An erase operation leaves the specified measures intact but blank.
