How to Use This Manual

You are probably eager to play your new P50-m Piano Tone Generator right away, rather than have to read through a lot of instructions before you can even get a sound out of it.

However, to get the most out of your P50-m, we strongly

suggest that you read the following sections in the order given:

1) Precautions

This gives you important information on how to care for your new P50-m, how to avoid damaging it, and how to ensure long-term, reliable operation.

2) The Controls of the P50-m

This section introduces you to the panel controls and connectors.

3) Setting Up and Playing Your P50-m

This very important section gets you started using your P50-m. It guides you in connecting and setting up the instrument for different example systems, and shows you how to play the special Demo song.

4) Operation Guide

Once you’re familiar with everything above, go over this comprehensive guide to all P50-m functions. You won’t need (or want) to read everything at once, but it is there for you to refer to when you need information about a certain feature or function.

5) Appendix

Finally, use the sections in the Appendix as necessary. Specifically, if you run into some problem or difficulty, refer to the Troubleshooting section for help.

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL

Page 8

Precautions

Your P50-m will give you years of reliable service if you follow the simple precautions below:

■ LOCATION

Keep the instrument away from locations where it is likely to be exposed to high temperatures (such as direct sunlight) or humidity . Also avoid locations which are subject to excessive dust accumulation or vibration which could cause mechanical damage.

■ USE THE CORRECT POWER ADAPTOR

Use only the recommended PA-3B or PA-1207 Power Adaptor for supplying power to the instrument. Use of another adaptor may cause serious damage to the instrument or the adaptor itself.

■ MAKE SURE POWER IS OFF WHEN MAKING OR REMOVING CONNECTIONS

To prevent damage to the instrument and other connected equipment, always turn off the power prior to connecting or disconnecting cables. Also, turn the power off when the instrument is not in use, and disconnect the power adaptor during electric storms.

■ HANDLE THE INSTRUMENT WITH CARE

Although the instrument has been constructed to withstand the rigors of normal use for optimum sturdiness and reliability, avoid subjecting it to strong physical shocks (such as dropping or hitting it). Since the P50-m is a precision-made electronic device, also avoid applying excessive force to the various controls. When moving the instrument, first unplug the power adaptor and all other cables to prevent damage to cords and jacks. Always unplug cables by gripping the plug firmly, not by pulling on the cable.

■ CLEAN WITH A SOFT, DRY CLOTH

Never use solvents such as benzine or thinner to clean the instrument, since these will damage the panel finish. Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, use a soft, clean, slightly moistened cloth — making sure to wipe the case off again with a dry cloth.

PRECAUTIONS

Page 9

■ ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE

Avoid using the unit near televisions, radios or other equipment generating electromagnetic fields. Proximity to such equipment may cause the unit to malfunction, and may generate interference noise in the other appliance as well.

■ DO NOT OPEN THE CASE OR TRY REPAIRING THE INSTRUMENT YOURSELF

The instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. Never open the case or tamper with the internal circuitry in any way, since doing so may result in damage to the instrument. Refer all servicing to qualified Y amaha service personnel.

■ MIDI CABLES

When connecting the instrument to other MIDI equipment, be sure to use only high-quality cables made especially for MIDI data transmission. Also, avoid using cables longer than 15 meters, since long cables can result in data errors.

Yamaha is not responsible for damage caused by improper handling or operation.

Setting Up and Playing Your P50-m

In this section, you’ll learn how to set up the P50-m for use with a MIDI keyboard. You’ll also learn how to set it up for use with a computer or sequencer and a second tone generator. Finally, you’ll learn how to play the Demo song and hear the realistic and dynamic Voices of the P50-m.

What You’ll Need

❏

The P50-m and the included power adaptor.

❏ A MIDI keyboard, electronic piano, or any instrument that can

output MIDI data.

❏ An amplifier/speaker system, preferably stereo. Alternately, you

can use a set of stereo headphones.

❏ Audio connecting cables. ❏ A MIDI cable.

Making the Connections

Before making any connections, make sure that all equipment to be connected is turned off, and that the P50-m power adaptor is not connected to an electrical outlet.

Connect one end of the MIDI cable to the MIDI OUT

terminal of the MIDI keyboard and the other to the MIDI IN terminal of the P50-m (as shown in the illustration below). Also, make sure that the MIDI send channel on the keyboard and the MIDI Receive Channel on the P50-m (see page 17) are set to the same value. (Refer to the owner’s manual of the MIDI keyboard if necessary.)

Connect the audio cables from the R and L/MONO OUTPUT

jacks of the P50-m to the appropriate inputs on the amplifier speaker system (as shown in the illustration below). If the amplifier has only one input, use the L/MONO jack on the P50-m. If you are using stereo headphones, connect them to the front panel PHONES jack.

Connect the power adaptor to the DC IN terminal on the

P50-m and plug the adaptor into an appropriate electrical outlet.

SETTING UP AND PLA YING YOUR P50-m

Page 14

• Do not attempt to use an AC adaptor other than the PA-3B or PA-1207. The use of an incompatible adaptor may result in irreparable damage to the P50-m, and even pose a serious shock hazard.

• Be sure to disconnect the power adaptor from the outlet when the P50-m is not in use.

Using in Larger MIDI Systems

The P50-m is equipped with MIDI IN and OUT terminals, allowing you to use it in any MIDI system. In the system example shown below, the P50-m is connected to both a computer and another tone generator. Here, the computer (with sequencer or other music software) plays back song data using the Voices of the P50-m and the connected tone generator.

MIDI Interface

Computer

In systems such as this, you should make sure that:

• The MIDI Receive Channel on the P50-m (see page 17) is set to the same channel as that for the piano part (or track) on the software.

• The MIDI OUT Mode is set to “ot2.” (See page 21.) This ensures that the piano part data will play the Voices of the P50-m, and not the other tone generator.

Also, if you are using General MIDI (GM) compatible software,

set the Program Change Table to “on.” (See page 18.) This ensures that the Voices on the P50-m will match the intended program changes in the software.

Powering Up and Playing the Demo Song

Once you’ve connected everything properly, you’re ready to turn the P50-m on and start playing it. However, a small word of caution before you begin: Follow the instructions given below to avoid possible damage to your equipment and speakers.

SETTING UP AND PLA YING YOUR P50-m

Page 16

Powering Up

If you haven’t done so already, press the POWER/VOL

control on the P50-m. Turn on the power of your MIDI keyboard.

Make sure that all volume controls (on the P50-m and the

connected amplifier) are turned down. Then, turn on the power of your amplifier speaker system.

Finally, set the volume control on the P50-m to about the

midway position initially (you can raise it later if needed), and set the volume on the amplifier to a suitable level.

Playing the Demo Song

Now that you’ve set everything up properly, try playing the builtin Demo Song. This showcases the high-quality Voices and the AWM2 tone generation system of the P50-m.

Simultaneously press the MASTER TUNE and NOTE SHIFT buttons.

The Demo song for the selected Voice starts playing immediately and repeats indefinitely until stopped (by pressing any panel button). (The LEDs and lamps flash in a pattern during playback.)

More about Demo Song There are actually two Demo Song modes. In the Single

Demo Play mode (described above), the currently selected Voice is used for the Demo song. Each Voice has its own Demo song, specially programmed to suit and showcase that particular Voice.

In the All Demo Play mode (described below), all Demo

songs can be played back in succession.

Operation Guide

Voice Controls

Selecting a Voice

The P50-m has 28 different piano and other keyboard Voices. (See list on page 30.) These can be selected either from the panel controls or remotely from a connected MIDI device.

Range: 01 — 29

Press the SELECT button.

Play this new Voice from the connected keyboard (or other device). Try selecting other Voices and playing them as well. (For a list of all available Voices, see page 30.)

The polyphony (maximum simultaneous notes) of the P50-m is 32. However, for two-layered Voices (see page 30), this is reduced to 16.

OPERATION GUIDE

Page 19

Selecting Voices From Your MIDI Keyboard

You can also select Voices remotely from a connected MIDI keyboard. Though the actual operation may differ depending on the keyboard used, the general procedure is the same. (Refer to the owner’s manual of your instrument for specific instructions.)

Make sure that your keyboard is set up to send Program

Change messages.

Use your keyboard’s panel controls to select a program.

Generally, if everything has been set up properly, the Voice number on the P50-m will change, and will be the same number as the program number you selected on your keyboard.

• Keep in mind that the Voices of the P50-m number up to 29. Program change numbers higher than 28 select only the highest Voice (#29).

• Depending on the MIDI device you are using, the program numbers (on the device) may not match the Voice numbers on the P50-m. This is because the numbering system of some MIDI devices starts at #00, rather than #01. In such a case, for example, you would use program #12 to select Voice 13 on the P50-m.

OPERATION GUIDE

Page 20

Tone Controls

The Tone controls of the P50-m, BRIGHT and REVERB SEND, let you adjust the sound of individual Voices. Brightness (BRIGHT) determines the tonal quality of the Voice, while Reverb Send determines how much Reverb effect is applied to the selected Voice.

Both of these controls let you make independent settings for different Voices, and all settings are automatically saved as they are made.

OPERATION GUIDE

Page 26

The Normal (1) setting provides standard touch response. Easy 1 to 3 allow you to produce a reasonably high volume with a soft, light touch (low velocities). Hard 1 and 2 produce high volume only with a hard, strong touch (high velocities). Cross 1 and 2 produce nearly the same volume no matter how soft or hard the touch.

Changing the MIDI Receive Channel

In order to properly use the P50-m with another MIDI device, the MIDI channels on both machines must match. The MIDI Receive Channel setting allows you to set which MIDI channel the P50-m responds over.

Advanced Functions

The advanced functions are special functions not generally used in normal operation, but for specific applications. These are also “hidden” functions, accessed by double-clicking a button or pressing two buttons together.

Program Change Table

The Program Change Table setting is for use with XG applications, specifically when using the P50-m to replace the piano sounds of a connected second tone generator.

Settings: off (oFF), on

Normally (and when power is turned on), this is set to “oFF.” When set to “oFF,” the P50-m responds only to program changes 0 — 28. All other numbers are ignored, and the last selected Voice stays active.

When set to “on,” the P50-m functions as a XG module for piano parts only. In this case, program changes (0 — 5, 7) corresponding to piano parts (according to XG) will select similar Voices on the P50-m, and all other numbers select a “blank” silent Voice (Voice No. 29). This ensures that the P50-m will play only the piano parts in XG song data.

Double-click the SELECT button (press it twice quickly).

Lamp flashes.

● When Program Change Table is set to “oFF” The P50-m does not respond to XG System On or GM Mode On messages.

● When Program Change Table is set to “on” The P50-m responds to XG System On or GM Mode On messages and performs the following:

•Resets all controllers to default or “zero” values.

•Selects Voice number 9 (the Voice most similar to GM voice 001, Grand Piano).

•Parameters of all voices are set to the same values as the Voice number 9 (Grand Piano).

•Sets Reverb Send of selected Voice to 040.

•Sets Transpose to 00.

Changing the Device Number

Device Number is a kind of MIDI “identification” number. This is convenient when using two or more P50-m units together in a MIDI chain. It is also important when sending System Exclusive data. When each unit in a chain is assigned a different Device Number, the controlling MIDI device can distinguish between different units.

The “ALL” setting allows the P50-m to respond to all 16 Device Numbers. For normal operation, this should be set to “ALL.”

Settings: 01 — 16, ALL

Receive Mode

When connecting two P50-m units together, the Receive Mode allows you to expand the maximum polyphony (simultaneous number of notes) from 32 to 64.

When set to “ALL” (normal operation), the P50-m plays all incoming MIDI notes. When set to “E0n,” the P50-m plays only even-numbered MIDI notes. Similarly, when set to “odd,” only odd-numbered MIDI notes are played. When combining two units for 64-note polyphony, set the Receive Mode to “E0n” on one unit and to “odd” on the other. Settings: ALL, Evn (even), odd

Simultaneously press the TOUCH and MIDI CH buttons.

Changing the MIDI OUT Setting

The MIDI OUT setting determines what incoming MIDI data is relayed via MIDI OUT terminal on the rear panel.

all

With “ot1,” is relayed via the MIDI OUT terminal. With “ot2,” data received over the selected MIDI Receive Channel (see page 17) is filtered out, and only the data on the other channels is relayed.

Generally, when connecting another tone generator to the MIDI OUT and using the P50-m with a sequencer or computer, this should be set to “ot2.”

If MIDI Receive Channel is set to “ALL” or the Voice number is set to 29 (no sound), all incoming MIDI data is relayed, regardless of the MIDI OUT setting.

Settings: ot1, ot2

Factory Set

This function restores the original factory settings of the P50-m. When you make changes to the various controls of the P50-m, the new settings automatically replace the original factory settings and are retained in memory even when power is turned off. Use Factory Set to cancel your own settings and restore the factory settings.

Keep in mind that this function completely alters any changes you have made to the settings. If you want to keep your custom settings, make a note of them before using Factory Set.

Simultaneously hold down the SELECT button and turn the power on. (The message “FAc” appears in the display.)

Troubleshooting

Even though the P50-m is exceptionally easy to use, it may occasionally not function as you expect it to. If that happens, check the possible problems and solutions below before assuming that the instrument is faulty.

Problem

No power.

No sound.

No sound when playing the P50-m from a computer, sequencer or external keyboard.

Possible Cause and Solution

If you are using an AC adaptor, check that the adaptor is properly plugged into both the AC outlet and the P50-m (See page 4.)

Check that:

• The panel volume control is set to an appropriate level.

• All connections have been properly made, including the PHONES jack (if used), external amplifier/speaker system, and MIDI.

• The MIDI channel settings on the P50-m match those of the connected device.

• One of the valid Voices (numbers 0–28) has been selected. Voice number 29 has no sound, and the P50-m has no Voices beyond 29.

Check all MIDI connections, making sure that the MIDI OUT of the external device is connected to the MIDI IN of the P50-m, and that the MIDI IN of the external device is connected to the MIDI OUT of the P50-m. (See pages 4–5.) Also, make sure that you have turned on the connected MIDI instrument or computer before turning on the P50-m. If you haven’t, simply turning the P50-m off and back on again may solve the problem.

Devices connected to MIDI OUT do not sound.

Try setting the MIDI OUT setting to “ot2.”

Problem

Possible Cause and Solution

Sound is distorted.

Volume is too low.

Sound is incorrect or unexpected.

Pitch is incorrect.

Notes are cut off or omitted.

Cannot set Reverb and Chorus effects via MIDI.

Check all volume settings, especially on the external amplifier/speaker system.

Check that incoming volume and expression data is set appropriately (not at or near minimum).

Check:

• The program change messages on your MIDI software.

• The Bright and EQ settings on the P50-m.

Check the Master Tune and Note Shift settings. Also, make sure that there are no incoming MIDI detune messages.

The maximum polyphony of the P50-m may be exceeded. The P50-m can play no more than 32 notes at once; for the two-layered Voices, this is reduced to 16 (see page 27).

Check that appropriate Reverb return and Chorus return messages are being sent.

1.4.12 Harmonic Content

Cntrl No. parameter Data Range

71 Harmonic Content This parameter adjusts the resonance specified by the voice.

Since it is a relative change parameter, it produces a boost or cut relative to a mid-point of 64. Higher values will produce a more distinctive sound. Depending on the voice, the effective range of this parameter may be narrower than the range that can be set.

0~127 (0-63:off, 64-127:on)

0~127 (0:-64, 64:+0, 127:+63)

SOUND LISTS & MIDI DATA

Page 43

1.4.13 Release Time

Cntrl No. parameter Data Range 72 Release Time

This adjusts the Envelope Release Time specified by the voice. Since it is a relative change parameter, it produces an increase or decrease relative to a mid-point of 64.

1.4.14 Attack Time

Cntrl No. parameter Data Range 73 Attack Time

This parameter adjusts the Envelope Attack Time specified by the voice. Since it is a relative change parameter, it produces an increase or decrease relative to a mid-point of 64.

1.4.15 Brigh tness

Cntrl No. parameter Data Range 74 Brightness

This parameter adjusts the Cutoff Frequency specified by the voice. Since it is a relative change parameter, it produces an increase or decrease relative to a mid-point of 64. Decreasing the value will make the sound more mellow. For some voices, the effective range may be narrower than the range of settings. Since this parameter is remembered for each voice, the Brightness value is stored for the currently selected voice number, and when you change the voice number the Brightness value will also change. Since the Brightness which can be adjusted from the panel is an absolute adjustment, it will not match the value set using this parameter. When a Brightness value of 64(+0) is received, the value indicated on the panel will be the ideal value for the currently selected voice.

1.4.16 Portamento Control

Cntrl No. parameter Data Range 84

When transmitting Portamento Control, you specify a currently-sounding Note On key. The value 0~127 specifies the Portamento Source Key number. When Portamento Control is received, the currently sounding note will change at a Portamento Time of 0 to the key of the Note On that is received next on the same channel. This is received even if Rcv PORTAMENTO = OFF.

1.4.17 Effect1 Depth (Reverb Send Level)

Cntrl No. parameter Data Range 91 Effect1 Depth 0~127

This sets the send level to the Reverb effect. Since this parameter is remembered independently for each voice, the Reverb Send Level value of the currently selected voice number will be stored, and when the voice number is changed the Reverb Send Level value will also change.

1.4.18 Effect3 Depth ( Chor us Send Level )

Cntrl No. parameter Data Range 93 Effect3 Depth 0~127

This sets the send level to the Chorus effect. When the voice number is changed, this will change to the value that is preset for each voice number.

5.2 When MIDI OUT=ot2

Data other than Key ON/OFF messages of the receive channel specified by MIDI CH will be re-transmitted (thru out). However if the Receive Channel is set to ALL, or if the voice number is 29 (Silence), all data will be re-transmitted (thru out) without change.

When the setting is changed from ot1 to ot2, the change is made simply, without performing any management of notes which may be currently on. In some cases this can cause problems; switching the setting to ot2 while notes are on can cause stuck notes on a tone generator connected to MIDI OUT.
