PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep these precautions 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:
•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.
•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.
•If the power 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 electric plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
•Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
•Before cleaning the instrument, always remove the electric plug from the outlet. Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
•Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have accumulated on it.
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 place the power 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.
•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.
•Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multipleconnector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet.
•Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
•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.
•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 near other electrical products such as televisions, radios, or speakers, since this might cause interference which can affect proper operation of the other products.
•Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.
•Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.
•When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths. Also, 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.
•Take care that the key cover does not pinch your fingers, and do not insert a finger or hand in the key cover gap.
•Never insert or drop paper or metallic or other objects between the slits of the key cover and the keyboard. If this happens, immediately turn off the power and remove the electric plug from the outlet and have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
•Do not place the instrument against a wall (allow at least 3 cm/one-inch from the wall), since this can cause inadequate air circulation, and possibly result in the instrument overheating.
•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.
■USING THE BENCH
•Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench. Using it as a tool or stepladder or for any other purpose might result in accident or injury.
•Only one person should sit on the bench at a time, in order to prevent the possibility of accident or injury.
•If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten them periodically using the included tool.
■SAVING USER DATA
•Always save data to a floppy disk frequently, in order to help prevent the loss of important data due to a malfunction or user operating error.
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.

OwnerÕs Manual
Turning the Electone off erases all panel settings you have made. When the Electone is turned on, Basic Registration 1 is automatically selected. If you have made panel settings you wish to keep, save them to Registration Memory before turning the Electone off.
GM (General MIDI System Level 1) is an addition to the MIDI standard which ensures that any GM-compatible music data can be accurately played by any GM-compatible tone generator, regardless of maker. The GM mark is affixed to all software and hardware products that support the General MIDI standard.
XG is a new MIDI format created by Yamaha which significantly improves and expands upon the General MIDI standard by providing a greater variety of high-quality voices plus considerably enhanced effect operationÑwhile being fully compatible with GM.

Main Features
Your Yamaha Electone is packed with many sophisticated functions. Yet is amazingly easy to use. The main features are briefly described here so that you can quickly understand the capabilities of your Electone.
Included among the main features are:
1 Astoundingly True-to-life Sounds
The new AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) and FM (Frequency Modulation) tone generation technologies combined with authentic touch response make this Electone a truly expressive musical instrument.
You can enjoy playing a total of 173 AWM/FM voices using the touch response function. (page 26)
2 Limitless Variety of Organ Sounds (EL-700 only)
The Electone also has separate voice sections that feature classic organ sounds-from jazz and pop to church and theater-and lets you easily create your own organ sounds by adjusting the volumes of the various flute footages. (page 37)
3 Original Voice Creation
The Electone also provides easy-to-use voice editing tools for manipulating the sophisticated AWM and FM tone generation technologies, allowing you to create your own original Electone voices. (page 107)
4 Dynamic and Programmable Rhythm Patterns
The Rhythm section of the Electone features authentic drum and percussion sounds, used by expert rhythm programmers in creating a total of 66 rhythm patterns, ranging across all styles of music. (page 56)
Along with the Keyboard Percussion function (page 68), which lets you play 120 different percussion sounds from the keyboard, the Rhythm Pattern Program and Rhythm Sequence Program functions let you record your own rhythm patterns and connect them to make songs. (page 122)
5 Wide Variety of Effects
Electone voices can also be enhanced with a full range of high-quality digital effects, ranging from Tremolo and Reverb to Flanger, Delay and Distortion. Pan and Reverb can be applied to each voice and each percussion sound independently. (page 41)
6 Versatile Functions of the Music Disk Recorder
The Electone also features a Music Disk Recorder (MDR) for recording your registrations and performances to a floppy disk. In addition, the MDR allows you to copy a song from a disk to another, duplicate a disk, and play and save commercially available XG song data. (page 84)
7 Large LCD for Systematic, Intuitive Operation
The large (320 x 80 full dot) LCD display provides comprehensive and easy-to-understand control over virtually all of the operations of the Electone.

1 Quick Introductory Guide
Whether you are an advanced Electone performer or have never touched an electronic keyboard in your life, we recommend that you take the time to go through this basic section. It shows you in the simplest possible manner how to start playing your Electone. The basic operations and functions that you learn in this section will also be important when you later use the ElectoneÕs more advanced features.
Only use the voltage specified as correct for the Electone. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the Electone.
Yamaha products are manufactured specifically for the supply voltage in the area where they are to be sold. If you should move, or if any doubt exists about the supply voltage, please consult with a qualified technician.

Getting Started
1 Plug the power cord in to an appropriate electrical outlet.

Registration Menu Disk
The Electone includes convenient Registrations that let you completely and instantly change the voices and other settings for all of the keyboards, even as you play. Each registration is pre-programmed to be used for a specific music style or instrumental combination.
Included with your Electone is a Registration Menu Disk. The disk is packed with 80 different types of registrations, including voice and rhythm selections. Each registration is pre-programmed to be used for a specific music style or instrumental combination.
To select registrations from the Registration Menu Disk:
1 Put the included Registration Menu Disk (with the label of the disk facing upward and the sliding shutter facing forward) into the Disk slot, located just under the Music Disk Recorder at the right side of the Electone.
Once youÕve securely inserted the disk into the slot, the LCD Display on the panel will automatically change to show the available Registration Menus.
There are dozens of registrations on a disk, but up to 16 can only be shown in the LCD Display at a time.
The page numbers 1 through 5 shown at the top right corner of the LCD indicate this Registration Menu Disk contains five pages.
2 Press the Page button to select the various menu ÒpagesÓ of registrations available on the disk.
PAGE
When the page numbers are displayed at the top right corner, you can select the pages by pressing the Page buttons, [F] to select next page and [E] to select previous page.

3 Select one of the registrations shown on the LCD by pressing the appropriate Data Control button.
Up to 16 registration selections are shown on the LCD, and the 16 Data Control buttons correspond to those selections.
The Data Control buttons are used to select voices, rhythms and various functions. They are also used to raise or lower volumes and levels, as well as move the cursor up and down, right and left.
15
NOTE:
Inadvertently pressing another button on the panel may change the content of the LCD during the Registration Menu operation. In this case press PLAY button on the Music Disk Recorder section, to retrieve the Registration Menu display.

MIN
The voices of the four voice sections of the Upper keyboard (two in the Lower and Pedal) sound together in a layer, and the balance of the voices in the layer is determined by these VOLUME controls. You can easily mute the voice of a voice section by holding down the COARSE button and pressing the panel volume control of the voice section you wish to mute. Repeating the procedure restores the original volume setting.
Turning the Electone off erases all panel settings you have made. When the Electone is turned on, Basic Registration 1 is automatically selected.
If you have made panel settings you wish to keep, save them to Registration Memory (see page 77) before turning the Electone off. You can, however, restore the panel settings that were made before the Electone was last turned off. See page 83 for more information.

Selecting Voices from the Dotted Buttons
—Dotted Buttons and User Voices—
The EL-700/500 has a wide variety of voices from which you can choose-far greater than what is immediately apparent from the front panel controls. YouÕve already learned in the section above how to select the different voices that are available in the Voice Menu display of each panel voice. The Electone also has dotted buttons in each voice section, giving you access to even more voices by including space for storing and recalling voices youÕve created yourself (User voices) by using Voice Edit function (page 107). Optional Voice Disk voices containing many new voices are also being made available for the EL-700/500 (page 115).
Each voice section has one or two dotted buttons, found on the right side of each voice section. These dotted buttons function as Òwild cardÓ Voice Menu selectors; any internal or User voices can be selected from these buttons.

The dotted buttons have three basic uses:
¥For playing any voice of the Voice Menus from any of the keyboards or Pedalboard. You can play on the Upper keyboard, for example, voices from the twenty-two Voice Menu pages (including User), and not be limited to only the twelve buttons (equivalent to twelve Voice Menu pages) that make up the Upper Voice section. Another advantage to this feature is that when the normally monophonic (one note) Lead and Pedal voices are assigned to the Upper or Lower keyboard Voice sections, they can be played polyphonically.
¥For having three different voices from the same Voice Menu page available for selection in the same song. For example, you can assign one of the voices to a dotted button in the Upper Keyboard Voice 1 section, the second voice to the other dotted button in the same section, and the third one on the Voice Menu.
¥For playing the User voices of your own creation or those from a Voice Disk. (page 107)
To select voices from the dotted buttons:
1 |
Press one of the dotted buttons in any of the voice sections. |
