PRECAUTIONS

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING

* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

WARNING

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, ﬁre or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

Power supply/AC power adaptor

• Only use the voltage speciﬁed as correct for the instrument. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.

• Use the speciﬁed adaptor (PA-5C, PA-5D or an equivalent recommended by Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument or overheating.

• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have accumulated on it.

• Do not place the AC adaptor cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over it.

Do not open

• Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel.

Water warning

• Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill into any openings.

• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.

Fire warning

• Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit. A burning item may fall over and cause a ﬁre.

If you notice any abnormality

• If the AC adaptor cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch, disconnect the adaptor plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected by qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel.

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:

Power supply/AC power adaptor Location

• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord.

• Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during electrical storms.

• 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.

YPP-200

• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel disﬁguration or damage to the internal components.

• Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise.

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

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected adaptor and other cables.

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

(3)-7

Connections

• 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. Also, 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.

Maintenance

• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning ﬂuids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.

Handling caution

• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel or keyboard. If this happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel.

• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.

• 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 operate the instrument 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.

Saving data

Saving and backing up your data

• Internal data is retained for about 1 week after the power is turned off. If the period is exceeded, the data will be lost. Be sure to turn the power switch on for a few minutes at least once a week. The data could be lost due to malfunction or incorrect operation. Save important data to external media such as the Yamaha MDF3 MIDI data ﬁler.

Backing up the ﬂoppy disk

• To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that you save your important data onto two ﬂoppy disks.

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 power switch is in the “STANDBY” position, 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 AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet.

YPP-200

Setting Up

Power supply connections

Using An AC Power Adaptor ..............................................................

ZMake sure that the STANDBY/ON switch of the YPP-200 is set to

STANDBY.

XConnect the AC adaptor (PA-5C, PA-5D or other adaptor specifi-

cally recommended by Yamaha) to the power supply jack.

CPlug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.

CAUTION

• Never interrupt the power supply (e.g. unplug the AC adaptor) during any YPP-200 record operation! Doing so can result in a loss of data.

PA-5C

CAUTION

Stereo System

WARNING

• Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-5C or PA-5D AC Power Adaptor (or other adaptor specifically recommended by Yamaha) to power your instrument from the AC mains. The use of other adaptors may result in irreparable damage to both the adaptor and the YPP-200.

• Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the YPP-200, or during electrical storms.

• Plugging or unplugging the AC power adaptor will reset the YPP-200 to the defaults.

Accessory Jacks

• Before connecting the YPP-200 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.

Using the OUTPUT R and L/L+R Jacks ..................................

The OUTPUT R and L/L+R jacks deliver the output of the YPP-200 for connection to an instrument amplifier, mixing console, PA system, or recording equipment. If you will be connecting the YPP-200 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 YPP-200’s sound.

YPP-200

CAUTION

• When the YPP-200’s OUTPUT jacks are connected to an external sound system,

first turn the YPP-200 power on, and then the power to the external amplifier/ speaker system. Reverse this order when turning the power off.

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

Sequenser

Setting Up

Using the MIDI IN and OUT Connectors ................................

The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external MIDI device which can be used to control the YPP-200. The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI data generated by the YPP-200 (e.g. note and velocity data produced by playing the YPP-200 keyboard).

More details on MIDI are given in “MIDI Functions” on page 30.

Using the Damper Pedal (connect a footswitch to the DAMPER Jack)

A footswitch connected to the DAMPER jack will basically function in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the footswitch is pressed, notes played will have a long sustain. Releasing the footswitch immediately stops (dampens) any sustained notes.

• Be sure that you do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. If you do, the ON/OFF status of the footswitch will be reversed.

• If the Damper function doesn’t work, or notes are sustained even when the footswitch is not pressed, make sure that the pedal is properly plugged into the DAMPER Jack.

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

Using the Soft Pedal (connect a footswitch to the SOFT Jack)

A footswitch connected to the SOFT jack reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played while the footswitch is pressed. The soft pedal function will not affect notes that are already sustaining when the footswitch is pressed.

This footswitch can also be assigned to function as a start/stop switch with the “Soft Pedal Mode” described on page 29.

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

Using the PHONES Jacks......................................................................

Two sets of standard stereo headphones can be plugged in here for private practice or late-night playing. The internal speaker system is automatically shut off when a pair of headphones is plugged into either of the PHONES jacks.

Music Stand

The YPP-200 is supplied with a music stand that can be attached to the instrument by inserting it into the slot at the rear of the control panel.

With the AC power adaptor connected, simply press the [STANDBY/ON] switch until it locks in the ON position. When the instrument is not in use, be sure to turn the power off. (Press the switch again so that it pops up.)

CAUTION

• Even when the switch is in the "STANDBY" position, electricity is still flowing to

the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the YPP-200 for a long time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet.

Set the Volume ...................................................................................................

Initially set the [MASTER VOLUME] control about half way between the “MIN” and “MAX” settings. Then, when you start playing, re-adjust the [MASTER VOLUME] control for the most comfortable listening level.

Select a Voice ......................................................................................................

Select the desired voice by pressing one of the voice selectors.

• See “Voice Descriptions” on page 38.

Play.................................................................................................................................

The YPP-200 also offers keyboard touch response, so the volume and timbre of notes played can be controlled according to how “hard” you play the keys. The amount of variation available depends on the selected voice.

• Some voices do not have keyboard touch response. See “Voice Descriptions” on page 38 for details.

YPP-200

Add Effects As Required ........................................................................

You can add or change reverb and effects as desired by using the

[REVERB] button (page 18) and [EFFECT] button (page 19).

Using the User Song Recorder

The ability to record and play back what you’ve played on the YPP-200 keyboard can be an effective practice aid. You can, for example, record just the lefthand part, and then practice the right-hand part while playing back the recorded left-hand part. Or, since you can record up to two tracks separately, you could record the left- and right-hand parts separately, or record both parts of a duet and hear how they sound when played back.

The user song recorder actually records the following data:

■ Entire Song

● Tempo ● Time signature (beat) ● Reverb type (including OFF) ● Effect type

■ Individual Tracks

● Notes played ● Voice selection

● Dual mode voices ● Damper pedal

● Soft pedal ● Effect depth ● Reverb depth

● Dual balance (F3) ● Dual detune (F3) ● Dual octave shift (F3)

Recording

Make All Necessary Initial Settings.............................................

Before actually beginning to record, select the voice you want to record with (or voices if you will be using the dual or split mode). You might also want to set the volume and tempo controls.

Engage the Record Ready Mode ...................................................

Press the [REC] button to engage the record ready mode (recording does not actually start yet). The record ready mode can be disengaged before recording by pressing the [REC] button a second time.

• The record ready mode cannot be engaged while the demo/preset song mode is engaged.

Select the Record Track ..........................................................................

When the record mode is engaged in the previous step, the lastrecorded track will automatically be selected for recording and its indicator — i.e. the TRACK [1] or [2] button indicator — will glow red. If you want to record on a different track, press the appropriate track button so that its indicator glows red.

• The track button indicators of tracks which contain previously recorded data will glow green (unless the track is turned off as described below). The previously-recorded data on the non-record track will normally be played back as you record, so you can play along with a previously-recorded track. If you don’t want to hear the previously recorded track as you record (when you want to record a song different from what you recorded on the previous track etc.,), press the playback track button before pressing the [REC] button (step 1, above) so that its indicator goes out.

• Recording on a track which already contains data will erase all previous data on that track.

• When the record mode is engaged the amount of memory available for recording will be shown on the LED display in approximate kilobytes (starting at “50”), and the rightmost dot on the LED display will flash at the current METRONOME tempo setting.

Playback

To play back what you’ve recorded, first make sure that the green track indicators of the tracks you want to play are lit. If not, press the corresponding track button(s) so that they are lit. Then press the SONG [START/STOP] button. Playback starts from the beginning of the recorded data, and will stop automatically at the end of the recorded data. You can also stop playback at any time by pressing the SONG [START/STOP] button.

To mute a track so that it doesn’t play back, press the corresponding track button so that its indicator goes out (press again to turn the track back on).

The current measure number appears on the display during playback.

• It is possible to play along on the keyboard during playback. In this case, the playback voice and the voice you play on the keyboard are not the same. The playback voice is the voice that was set when the data was recorded. The voice you play on the keyboard is the voice that is selected on the panel.

• The playback volume and tempo can be adjusted by using the [MASTER VOLUME] control and [TEMPO/FUNCTION ▼, ▲] buttons (press both [TEMPO/FUNCTION ▼, ▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default tempo).

• All user song recorder data will be retained in memory for about one week after the power is turned off. If you want to keep your recorded data for longer periods, turn the power on for a few minutes at least once a week. It is also possible to store it to an external MIDI storage device such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3 by using the Bulk Data Dump function described on page 32.

• The track indicators will not light automatically when the power is turned on even if the user song recorder contains data. It is therefore necessary to press the track buttons so that the corresponding green indicators light before starting recorder playback. It is also a good idea to press the track buttons to check if the tracks contain data before recording. If the green indicator lights when the corresponding track button is pressed, that track contains data which will be erased and replaced by the newly-recorded data.

• If the metronome is being used during playback, the metronome will automatically stop when playback is stopped.

• During recorder playback, the volume of a track which is turned off will always be “0” (i.e. the “Preset Song Part Cancel Volume” function — page 29 — only affects preset song playback.

• The playback data is not transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector.

• Playback cannot be started when the demo/preset song mode is engaged.

• Playback cannot be started when the recorder contains no data, or when both track

buttons are off.

• If the REVERB type is changed via the panel controls during playback, both the playback and keyboard reverb effects will be changed.

• If the EFFECT type is changed via the panel controls during playback, the playback effect may be switched off in some cases.

Synchro Start ............................................................................................................................

When the Synchro Start function is engaged, recorder playback will begin

automatically as soon as you start playing on the keyboard.

To engage the Synchro Start function press the SONG [START/STOP] button while holding a track button which is ON. The rightmost dot on the display will flash at the current tempo. (Repeat the previous operation to disengage the Syncro Start function.) Playback will then start as soon as you begin playing on the keyboard.

If you hold a track button which is OFF while pressing the SONG [START/STOP] button, that track will be turned ON and the Synchro Start mode will be engaged.

Soft Pedal Start/Stop ........................................................................................................

A footswitch connected to the SOFT jack can be assigned to start or stop recorder playback using the “Soft Pedal Mode” function described on page 29. This is convenient for starting playback of the recorded part anytime after you have started playing.

F7.2: MIDI Receive Channel Selection .................................................................................

MIDI OUT

The MIDI system allows transmission and reception of MIDI data on 16 different channels. Multiple channels have been implemented to allow selective control of certain instruments or devices connected in series. For example, a single MIDI sequence recorder could be used to “play” two different instruments or tone generators. One of the instruments or tone generators could be set to receive only on channel 1, while the other is set to receive on channel 2. In this situation the first instrument or tone generator will respond only to channel1 information transmitted by the sequence recorder, while the second instrument or tone generator will respond only to channel-2 information. This allows the sequence recorder to “play” two completely different parts on the receiving instruments or tone generators.

In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and receiving equipment must be matched for proper data transfer. A “Multi-timbre” receive mode is also available, which allows simultaneous reception of different parts on all 16 MIDI channels, allowing the YPP-200 to play multi-channel song data received from a music computer or sequencer. There’s also a “1-2” mode which allows simultaneous reception on channels 1 and 2.

Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to select the desired transmit or receive channel. The transmit channel parameter can also be turned “OFF” if you don’t want the YPP-200 to transmit any MIDI data. To select the multi-timbre receive mode, set the receive channel to “ALL”. Select “1-2” for multi-timbre reception on channels 1 and 2 only.

Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting: transmit = “1”; receive = “ALL”.

• In the dual mode, first voice data is transmitted on its set channel while second voice data is transmitted on the next greater channel. No data is transmitted if the transmit channel is set to “OFF”.

• Demo/preset song data and recorder playback data are not transmitted via MIDI.

• No MIDI reception occurs when the demo/preset song mode is engaged.

• Program change and other like channel messages received will not affect the YPP-200’s panel

“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the YPP-200 keyboard controls its internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the keyboard. This situation is “Local Control On” since the internal tone generator is controlled locally by its own keyboard.

Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that the YPP-200 keyboard does not play the internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector when notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN connector.

Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to turn local control “On” or “OFF”.

Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “On”.

F7.4: Program Change ON/OFF ..................................................................................................

Normally the YPP-200 will respond to MIDI program change numbers received from an external keyboard or other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly numbered voice to be selected on the corresponding channel (the keyboard voice does not change). The YPP-200 will normally also send a MIDI program change number whenever one of its voices is selected, causing the correspondingly numbered voice or program to be selected on the external MIDI device if the device is set up to receive and respond to MIDI program change numbers.

This function makes it possible to cancel program change number reception and transmission so that voices can be selected on the YPP-200 without affecting the external MIDI device.

Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to turn program change transmission and reception “On” or “OFF”.

Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “On”.

YPP-200

Using the MIDI Functions

The YPP-200 is MIDI-compatible, featuring MIDI IN and MIDI OUT terminals and providing a variety of MIDI-related controls. By using the MIDI functions you can expand your musical possibilities. This section explains what MIDI is, and what it can do, as well as how you can use MIDI on your YPP-200.

What Is MIDI?

No doubt you have heard the terms “acoustic instrument” and "digital instrument." In the world today, these are the two main categories of instruments. Let’s consider an acoustic piano and a classical guitar as representative acoustic instruments. They are easy to understand. With the piano, you strike a key, and a hammer inside hits some strings and plays a note. With the guitar, you directly pluck a string and the note sounds. But how does a digital instrument go about playing a note?

Acoustic guitar note production

Pluck a string and the body resonates the sound.

As shown in the illustration above, in an electronic instrument the sampling note (previously recorded note) stored in the tone generator section (electronic circuit) is played based on information received from the keyboard. So then what is the information from the keyboard that becomes the basis for note production?

For example, let’s say you play a “C” quarter note using the PIANO 1 sound on the YPP200 keyboard. Unlike an acoustic instrument that puts out a resonated note, the electronic instrument puts out information from the keyboard such as “with what voice,” “with which key,” “about how strong,” “when was it pressed,” and “when was it released.” Then each piece of information is changed into a number value and sent to the tone generator. Using these numbers as a basis, the tone generator plays the stored sampling note.

Using the MIDI Functions

MIDI is an acronym that stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, which allows electronic musical instruments to communicate with each other, by sending and receiving compatible Note, Control Change, Program Change and various other types of MIDI data, or messages.

The YPP-200 can control a MIDI device by transmitting note related data and various types of controller data. The YPP-200 can be controlled by the incoming MIDI messages which automatically determine tone generator mode, select MIDI channels, voices and effects, change parameter values and of course play the voices specified for the various parts.

MIDI messages can be divided into two groups: Channel messages and System messages. Below is an explanation of the various types of MIDI messages which the YPP-200 can receive/transmit.

● Channel Messages

The YPP-200 is an electronic instrument that can handle 16 channels. This is usually expressed as "it can play 16 instruments at the same time." Channel messages transmit information such as Note ON/OFF, Program Change, for each of the 16 channels.

Message Name YPP-200 Operation/Panel Setting

Note ON/OFF Messages which are generated when the keyboard is played. Each

message includes a specific note number which corresponds to the key which is pressed, plus a velocity value based on how hard the key is stuck.

Program Change Voice number (along with corresponding bank select MSB/LSB settings,

if necessary).

Control Change Messages that are used to change some aspect of the sound (Damper,

Reverb Depth, etc.)

● System Messages

This is data that is used in common by the entire MIDI system. System messages include messages like Exclusive Messages that transmit data unique to each instrument manufacturer and Realtime Messages that control the MIDI device.

Message Name YPP-200 Operation/Panel Setting

Exclusive Message Reverb/Effect settings, etc. Realtime Messages Start/stop operation

The messages transmitted/received by the YPP-200 are shown in the MIDI Implementation Chart on page 45.

MIDI Terminals

In order to exchange MIDI data between multiple devices, each device must be connected by a cable. The MIDI terminals of the YPP-200 are located on the rear panel.

MIDI IN Receives MIDI data from another MIDI device. MIDI OUT Transmits the YPP-200’s keyboard information as MIDI data

to another MIDI device.

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

• Special MIDI cables (sold separately) must be used for connecting to MIDI devices. They can be bought at music stores, etc.

• Never use MIDI cables longer than about 15 meters. Cables longer than this can pick up noise which can cause data errors.

Factory Preset Recall

All dual mode, reverb, effect, touch sensitivity, tuning settings, and the settings affected by the Backup Functions can be restored to their original factory preset values by holding the C7 key (rightmost key on the keyboard) while turning the [STANDBY/ON] switch ON. This also erases all recorder data, and sets all Backup on/off settings (F8) to “OFF”.

• The factory setting list is found on page 40.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter what appears to be a malfunction, please check the following points before assuming

that your YPP-200 is faulty.

1. No Sound When the Power is Turned ON

Is the AC power adaptor properly connected to the YPP-200 and an AC wall outlet? Check the AC connection carefully. Is the MASTER VOLUME control turned up to a reasonable listening level? Also make sure that a pair of headphones is not plugged into the PHONES jack, and that the Local Control (page 31) is ON.

2. The Footswitch Doesn’t Work Correctly

If the footswitch connected to the DAMPER or SOFT jacks does not work, or notes are sustained even when the pedal is not pressed (its ON/OFF status is reversed), make sure that the footswitch is properly plugged into the corresponding jack or turn the power OFF then ON again without pressing the footswitch.

3. The YPP-200 Reproduces Radio or TV Sound

This can occur if there is a high-power transmitter in your vicinity. Contact your Yamaha dealer.

4. Intermittent Static Noise

This is usually due to turning ON or OFF a household appliance or other electronic equipment which is fed by the same AC mains line as your YPP-200.

5. Interference Appears On Radio or TV Sets Located Near the YPP-200

The YPP-200 contains digital circuitry which can generate radio-frequency noise. The solution is to move the YPP-200 further away from the affected equipment, or vice versa.

6. Noise is heard from the YPP-200’s speakers.

The noise may be due to interference caused by the use of a mobile phone in close proximity to the YPP-

200. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the YPP-200.

7. Distorted Sound When the YPP-200 is Connected to An External Amplifier/Speaker System

If the YPP-200 is connected to a stereo system or instrument amplifier and the sound is distorted, try reducing the volume of the YPP-200 first, then reduce the volume of the external equipment to a level at which the distortion ceases.

● If “Scn” appears on the display an internal malfunction has occurred. In this case, contact your Yamaha dealer.

of relevant parameters and Control Change values. Allow sufficient time for processing to execute (about 50 msec) before sending the YPP-200 another message.

• XG Native Parameter Change message may contain two or four

bytes of parameter data (depending on the parameter size).

• For information about the Address and Byte Count values, refer

to Table 1 below. Note that the table’s Total Size value gives the size of a bulk block. Only the top address of the block (00H, 00H, 00H) is valid as a bulk data address.
