About the PSR-5700 Manuals

The PSR-5700 comes with two manuals: “Getting Started” (this manual), and the “Advanced Features” manual.

■ The “Getting Started” Manual

This, as its name suggests, is the manual you should start with. The “Getting Started” manual will teach you everything you need to basically play and enjoy the PSR5700, concentrating on the keys and controls that you’ll use most frequently.

The Getting Started manual covers:

● Playing the demonstration.

● Selecting and playing voices.

● Tuning and transposition.

● Voice registration.

● Using the auto accompaniment functions.

● The multi, tempo, and percussion pads.

● Expression and effects.

● The panel registration feature.

● Playing Disk Orchestra Collection disks.

Go through the Getting Started manual first!

■ The “Advanced Features” Manual

The Advanced Features manual is the manual you’ll want to refer to after you gain initial familiarity with the PSR-5700 — i.e. after you’ve carefully gone through the Getting Started manual. As its name suggests, the Advanced Features manual concentrates on the many advanced features and utility functions provided by the PSR-5700.

The Advanced Features manual covers:

● The sequencer.

● The custom accompaniment programmer.

● Custom voice editing.

● The PSR-5700’s digital effects.

● Floppy disk operations.

● And a range of other functions including MIDI

operations and General MIDI Level 1 protocol compatibility.

Unlike the Getting started manual which is designed to be read through from beginning to end, the Advanced Features manual allows you to directly reference information on individual features and functions.

■ Icons

The following simple icons are used throughout this manual to draw attention to important points and information where necessary. The icons also make it easier to differentiate between information that you should read immediately and information that can be skipped until later, hopefully helping you to become familiar with the PSR-5700 in the quickest, most efficient manner possible.

This icon warns of possible hardware damage, software malfunction, or any other seri-

ous problem that may occur due to improper operation or set up.

This icon marks information that you must read — i.e. important steps or procedures that are essential for proper, efficient, or easy operation.

The magnifying-glass icon indicates information that may not be essential for general operation, but is a more detailed explanation of a feature, a description of the principle involved, etc. You can skip this information if full details are not required immediately.

Suggestions as to how a feature or function can be applied musically are identified by this icon.

Hints or ideas that are not specifically musical but may make operation easier or more interesting are marked by the light-bulb icon.

Taking Care of Your PortaTone

Your PortaTone will give you years of playing pleasure if you follow the simple rules given below:

■ Location

■ Power Supply

■ Turn Power OFF When Making

Connections

Do not expose the instrument to the following conditions to avoid defor-

mation, 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.

● Turn the power switch OFF when the instrument is not in use.

● The power supply 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 adapters since these can result in reduced sound quality, operation errors, and possibly damage.

● To avoid damage to the instrument and other devices to which it is con-

nected (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

■ Cleaning

● 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.

● 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.

■ Data Backup

■ Handle Floppy Disks and the

Disk Drive With Care

● Internal data (e.g. sequencer data) is retained in memory even if the

power switch is turned OFF. If the power is not turned ON for periods longer than about a week, however, memory data will be lost. Save all important data to disk before turning off for longer periods.

● Internal memory data can be corrupted due to incorrect operation. Be

sure to “save” important data to a floppy disk frequently so you have a backup to revert to if something happens to damage the data in memory. Also note that magnetic fields can damage data on the disk, so it is advisable to make a second back-up copy of disks that contain very important data, and keep backup disks in a safe place away from stray magnetic fields (i.e. away from speakers, appliances containing motors, etc.).

● Do not bend or apply pressure to the floppy disk. Do not open the shutter

and touch the surface of the floppy disk inside.

● Do not expose the disk to high temperatures. (e.g. direct sunlight)

● Use only 3.5” 2DD type floppy disks.

● Do not expose the disk to magnetic fields. Magnetic fields can partially

or totally erase data on the disk, rendering the disk unreadable.

● To eject a floppy disk, press the eject button slowly as far as it will go

then, when the disk is fully ejected, remove it by hand. The disk may not be ejected properly if the eject button is pressed too quickly, or it is not pressed in as far as it will go (the eject button may become stuck in a half-pressed position and the disk extends from the drive slot by only a few millimeters). If this happens, do not attempt to pull out the partially ejected disk. 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 carefully.

● Do not insert anything but floppy disks into the disk drive. Other objects

may cause damage to the disk drive or the floppy disk.

● Be sure to remove the floppy disk from the drive when moving the PSR-

5700. Moving the instrument while a floppy disk is loaded can damage both the drive and the disk.

● Apply floppy disk labels carefully! Improperly applied disk labels (wrin-

kled, protruding corners, etc.) can cause the disk to become stuck in the disk drive.

■ Service and Modification

● The PSR-5700 contains no user serviceable parts. Opening it or tamper-

ing 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.

A standard pair of stereo headphones can be plugged in here for private practice or late-night playing. The internal stereo speaker system is automatically shut off when a pair of headphones is plugged into the HEADPHONES jack.

The rear-panel AUX. OUT L/L+R and R jacks deliver the output of the PSR-5700 for connection to a keyboard amplifier, stereo sound system, a mixing console, or tape recorder. If you will be connecting the PSR-5700 to a monaural sound system, use only the L/L+R jack. When a plug is inserted into the L/L+R jack only, the left- and right-channel signals are combined and delivered via the L/L+R jack so you don’t lose any of the PSR-5700 sound.

ment.

These jacks are intended primarily for use with external audio sources such as tone generators, drum machines, CD players, and similar equipment. The signal received via the AUX. IN L and R jacks is reproduced via the PSR-5700’s internal stereo amplifier and speaker system. If you will be connecting a monaural source to the PSR-5700, use only the L/L+R jack. When a plug is inserted into the L/L+R jack only, the monaural input signal is fed to both the left and right channels of the PSR-5700 stereo sound system. Please note that the PSR-5700 MASTER VOLUME control does not affect the level of the signal delivered to external equipment.

The supplied FC5 footswitch or a second (optional) footswitch connected to this jack can be used to control a range of important functions. Refer to the “FOOT SWITCH SELECT” function described on page 37 of the Advanced Features manual.
