Handling caution

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

•

Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet.

• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.

• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent damage to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them.

• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

• Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching it, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage to the internal components or result in the instrument falling over.

Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (display is off), electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level.

When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components, set all volume levels to minimum.

• Be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.

• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.

• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel or keyboard. This could cause physical injury to you or others, damage to the instrument or other property, or operational failure.

• 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 use the instrument/device or headphones 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.

Formats

“GM (General MIDI)” is one of the most common Voice allocation formats. “GM System Level 2” is a standard specification that enhances the original “GM” and improves Song data compatibility. It provides for increased polyphony, greater Voice selection, expanded Voice parameters, and integrated effect processing.

XG is a major enhancement of the GM System Level 1 format, and was developed by Yamaha specifically 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.

GS was developed by the Roland Corporation. In the same way as Yamaha XG, GS is a major enhancement of the GM specifically to provide more Voices and Drum kits and their variations, as well as greater expressive control over Voices and effects.

The Yamaha XF format enhances the SMF (Standard MIDI File) standard with greater functionality and open-ended expandability for the future. This instrument is capable of displaying lyrics when an XF file containing lyric data is played.

“SFF (Style File Format)” is an original Style file format by Yamaha which uses a unique conversion system to provide highquality automatic accompaniment based on a wide range of chord types. “SFF GE (Guitar Edition)” is an enhanced format of SFF, which features improved note transposition for guitar tracks.

Powerful DSP effects for enhancing the sound page 40

The PSR-S670 has a comprehensive and sonically stunning set of authentic Voices, and gives you the tools to play these Voices more naturally and with greater expressiveness.

The Styles of the PSR-S670 make it possible to perform in a wide variety of music genres with full instrumental accompaniment. Simply playing chords automatically triggers and controls the auto accompaniment backing, and puts an entire backing band behind you! You can change arrangements on the fly, instantly selecting different rhythm variations and breaks in real time — including Intro, Ending, and Fill-in — during your performance.

The Multi Pads can be used to play a number of short pre-recorded rhythmic and melodic sequences. Playing the Multi Pads during playback of Styles, etc. can add impact and variety to your performance, and make it more dynamic.

The PSR-S670 is an open-ended instrument that lets you continually expand the available content for your creative explorations. Featured on our special website (http://www.yamaha.com/awk/) are many Voices and Styles (called Expansion Pack data) that you can buy and load to the PSR-S670. By using the “Yamaha Expansion Manager” software, you can manage the variety of Expansion Packs and create your own custom Pack for installing on your instrument.

The PSR-S670 has high-quality effect types, including Real Distortion and Real Reverb. The DSP effects allow you to play the keyboard dynamically with a distorted guitar sound, or sound like you are playing in a concert hall.

be played back on the instrument. You can also record your performance as audio files (WAV format) to a USB flash drive — making it easy to edit your recordings on computer as desired, and share them over the Internet, or burn your own original CDs.

The two knobs to which various functions can be assigned lets you intuitively control your performance in real-time. For example, you can use the knobs to brightness (cutoff frequency) of the sound being played or to control the volume balance between the parts such as Voice and Style. Thus you can easily add variations to the sound without interrupting your performance. You can also control your performance easily by using the two wheels — PITCH BEND and MODULATION. The PITCH BEND wheel can bend the notes up or down, and the MODULATION wheel can apply a vibrato effect to notes played on the keyboard.

Welcome to Digital Workstation

You can play arpeggios (broken chords) by simply pressing the appropriate notes on the keyboard, allowing you to instantly and automatically have complex and otherwise difficult-to-play phrases backing your performance.

These are just a few of the many functions that enhance your musical enjoyment and expand your creative and performance possibilities. Try them out and enjoy your new keyboard!
