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 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.
• Use the specified adaptor (PA-5, PA-5B, PA-5C or an equivalent recommended
by Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument or overheating.
• 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 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.
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always
hold the plug itself and not the cord.
• 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.
• Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during electrical storms.
• Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with the +/– polarity
markings. Failure to do so might result in overheating, fire, or battery fluid
leakage.
• Always replace all batteries at the same time. Do not use new batteries together with old ones. Also, do not mix battery types, such as alkaline batteries
with manganese batteries, or batteries from different makers, or different types
of batteries from the same maker, since this can cause overheating, fire, or
battery fluid leakage.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not intended to be charged.
• If the instrument is not to be in use for a long time, remove the batteries from
it, in order to prevent possible fluid leakage from the battery.
• Keep batteries away from children.
• 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.
• 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 adaptor and other
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 or plastic 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.
• 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.
• 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 USER DATA
• Save all data to an external device such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer
MDF2, 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.
Make sure to discard used batteries according to local regulations.

Setting Up
This section contains information about setting up your PSR-330 and preparing to play. Be
sure to go through this section carefully before using your PSR-330.
Power Supply
Although the PSR-330 will run either from an optional A C adaptor or batteries,
Y amaha recommends use of the more enviromentally safe AC adaptor . Follow the
instructions below according to the power source you intend to use.
■ Using An Optional AC Power Adaptor
z Plug an optional Yamaha PA-5, PA-5B, or PA-5C Power Adaptor into a wall
AC outlet.
x Then plug the DC output cable from the PA-5, PA-5B, or P A-5C into the DC
IN 10-12V jack on the rear panel of the PSR-330. The internal batteries are
automatically disconnected when an AC Power Adaptor is used.
DC IN 10-12V
PA-5,
PA-5B,
or
PA- 5C
When turning the power OFF, simply r everse the procedure.
• Never interrupt the power
supply (e.g. remove the
batteries or unplug the
AC adaptor) during any
PSR-330 record operation! Doing so can result
in a loss of data.
• Use ONLY a Yamaha PA5, PA-5B, or PA-5C 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 PSR-330.
• Unplug the AC Power
Adaptor when not using
the PSR-330, or during
electrical storms.
■ Using Batteries
For battery operation the PSR-330 requires six 1.5V SUM-1, “D” size, R-20 or
equivalent batteries.
When the batteries need to be replaced the volume may be reduced, the sound may
be distorted, and other problems may occur. When this happens, turn the power
off and replace the batteries.
Replace the batteries as follows:
z Open the battery compartment cover located on the instrument’ s bottom panel.
x Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow the polarity markings on
the inside of the compartment.
c Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it locks firmly in place.
10
• When the batteries run
down, replace them with a
complete set of six new
batteries. NEVER mix old

The PSR-330 Voices
The PSR-330 actually includes two voice sets: the “panel” voices and drum kits
(listed on the PSR-330 panel), and the GM (General MIDI) voices. The panel voices
include 126 “pitched” voices (voice numbers 1 through 126) and 10 drum kits
(numbers 127 through 136), while the GM voice set includes 128 pitched voices
(voice numbers 137 through 264).
The PSR-330 allows up to three voices to be selected at the same time: “R1” (Righthand 1), “R2”, (Right-hand 2) and “L” (Left-hand). Only the “R1” voice is used when
you’re playing a single voice o ver the entire range of the keyboard. When you’ re using
the DUAL VOICE and/or SPLIT VOICE modes (decribed on pages 17 and 18),
however , the “R2” and/or “L” voice will be used as well. The numbers of the currently
selected R1, R2, and L voices are all shown on the display panel.

Accompaniment Track Muting
The PSR-330 has eight accompaniment tracks — RHYTHM 1, RHYTHM 2,
BASS, CHORD 1, CHORD 2, PAD, PHRASE 1, and PHRASE 2 — that you can
control to modify the “orchestration” and therefore the overall sound of the accompaniment. When a style is selected the icons corresponding to the tracks which contain
data for any section of that style will light.
● What’s in the Tracks
RHYTHM 1 & 2These are the main rhythm tracks. The RHYTHM tracks produce the
drum and percussion sounds.
BASSThe BASS track always plays a bass line, but the voice will change to
fit the selected style … acoustic bass, synth bass, tuba, etc.
CHORD 1 & 2These tracks provide the rhythmic chordal accompaniment required by
each style. You’ll find guitar, piano , and other chordal instruments here.
PADThis track pla ys long chords where necessary, using sustained instru-
ments such as strings, organ, choir.
PHRASE 1 & 2This is where the m usical embellishments reside. The PHRASE trac ks
are used for punchy brass stabs, arpeggiated chords, and other extras
that make the accompaniment more interesting.
• Individual track voices, volume, and other
parameters can be
changed by using the
REVOICE function —
page 58.
■ Muting Individual Tracks
Individual accompaniment tracks can be turned OFF (muted) or ON by using the

● F1: The FINGERED 1 Mode
The Fingered 1 mode lets you finger your own c hor ds on the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT section of the keyboard (i.e. all keys to the left of and including the splitpoint key — normally 54) while the PSR-330 supplies appropriately orchestrated
rhythm, bass, and chord accompaniment in the selected style.
The FINGERED 1 mode recognizes the following chords:
• If you play any three
adjacent keys (including black keys), the
chord sound will be
cancelled and only
the rhythm instruments will continue
playing (CHORD
CANCEL function).
• An octave produces
accompaniment
based only on the
root.
• A perfect fifth (1 + 5)
produces accompaniment based only on
the root and fifth
which can be used
with both major and
minor chords.
• The chord fingerings

This is essentially the same as the FINGERED 1 mode, described above, except
that the FINGERED 2 mode additionally allows you to specify the lowest note of
each chord — simply, the lowest note played in the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT
section of the keyboard is used as the accompaniment bass note. This means you
can specify “on-bass” chords in which the main bass note for the chord is not the
root of the chord. For a C major chord, for example, you could use E (the third) or
G (the fifth) as the bass note rather than C.

● FuL: The FULL KEYBOARD Mode
FuL
In this mode the PSR-330 automatically differentiates between left-hand chords
and right-hand melody, no matter where they are played on the keyboard. Righthand chords with a left-hand bass line — single or octave — are also recognized.
In the first case left-hand chords are recognized and accompaniment is produced
in the same way as in the FINGERED 1 mode, in the latter case the right-hand
chords are recognized in the same way but the accompaniment bass line will be
based on the left-hand bass line you play. T his means you can play in just about any
style anywhere on the keyboard, and the PSR-330 will automatically produce
appropriate accompaniment.
FngrngMd
• A single note one octave lower than the
lowest note of the
chord is recognized
as a bass note, and
notes eleven notes or
more higher are recognized as melody
notes.

● MuL: The MULTI-FINGER Mode

FngrngMd
This is the default accompaniment mode. The MULTI-FINGER mode automatically detects SINGLE FINGER or FINGERED 1 chord fingerings, so you can use
either type of fingering without having to switch fingering modes.
◆ The Stop Accompaniment Function
While the SINGLE FINGER, FINGERED 1, FINGERED 2, or MULTI-FINGER mode is selected chords played in the AUTO ACCOMPNIMENT section of
the keyboard are also detected and played by the PSR-330 Auto Accompaniment
system when the accompaniment is stopped (except when the FULL KEYBOARD
mode is engaged). In this case the bass note and chord voices are selected
automatically.
• When the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT split
point and SPLIT

set to the same key,
the L voice and the
automatically selected
bass note will sound.

effects which do not depend on the A UTO ACCOMPANIMENT chords. Harmony is
applied to the R1 voice. When chords are played the harmony is based on the last note
played (i.e. last-note priority).
The PSR-330 has 25 different harmony types, as listed below.
Press the [HARMONY] button so that the HARMONY icon appears in the display

Using Music Cartridges
The PSR-330 features a catridge slot which accepts pre-programmed Yamaha Music
Cartridges containing style and/or song data. One sample Music Cartridge containing song
data is supplied with the PSR-330. Others are available from your Yamaha dealer.
◆ Inser ting a Music Car tridg e
With the power OFF , insert the Music Car tridge into the cartridge slot as shown,
and press down firmly until the Cartridge is seated properly (as shown in the
illustration). The Cartridge is shaped so that it will only fit in the slot one way don’t try to force it in the wrong way . Turn the power back ON ag ain after inserting.
The triangular mark on the front of the Cartridge
For Cartridges without the mark, the
bottom of the serrated edges of the
Cartridge should be even with the panel
edge (not above it).
should be completely below the panel edge when
the Cartridge is properly seated.
◆ Music Cartridg e Handling Precautions
• Do not leave Music Cartridges in lo-
cations which are subject to excessive heat or humidity.
• Do not drop Music Cartridges or sub-
ject them to strong shock.
• Do not disassemble Music Cartridges.
• Do not directly touch the Music
Cartridge’s electrical contacts. Persistently touching it may cause to
break electrical contacts or generate
static electricity. Static electric
charges can cause loss of data and
unreliable operation.
• Do not insert objects or cartridges
other than Yamaha Music Cartridges
in the PortaTone car tridge slot. Doing
so can result in serious damage to the
instrument.
• Never attempt to insert or remove a
cartridge when the power switch is
ON. Doing so can result in loss of the
PSR-330 memory data (song data/
registration memory data) or complete lack of control.
• The Music Cartridge data may not be
selected or played back correctly, if
the electrical contacts on the Music
Cartridge are affected with dust. If
this happens, insert and remove the
Music Cartridge several times. This
may solve the problem. If the problem still happens, wipe and clean the
electrical contacts on the Music Cartridge with a dry soft cloth.
• Be sure to insert the
Music Cartridge when
you recall the registration settings based on
the cartridge data or
playback the song
based on the cartridge
data. Otherwise, “No
Cart (Cartridge)” will
appear on the display.

■ Master T uning
The Tuning function sets the overall pitch of the PSR-330 over a ±50 cent range

■ Scale T uning
Scale tuning allows each individual note of the octa ve to be tuned o v er range from
–64 to +63 cents in 1-cent increments (1 cent = 1/100th of a semitone). This makes it
possible to produce subtle tuning variations, or tune the instrument to totally different
scales (e.g. classic or Arabic scales).
First use the SC.Note function to select the note to be tuned. The range is from C
to b: C, db, d, Eb, E, F, Gb, G, Ab, A, bb, b.

MIDI Functions
MIDI, the Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a world-standard communication interface
that allows MIDI-compatible musical instruments and equipment to share musical infor mation and control one another. This makes it possible to create “systems” of MIDI instruments
and equipment that offer far greater versatility and control than is available with isolated
instruments.
■ The MIDI Connectors
The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external MIDI device which
can be used to control the PSR-330. The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI data
generated by the PSR-330 (e.g. note and velocity data produced by playing the
keyboard).
INMIDIOUT
■ Simple MIDI Control
Most MIDI keyboards (including the PSR-330, of course) transmit note and
velocity (touch response) information via the MIDI OUT connector whenever a note
is played on the keyboard. If the MIDI OUT connector is connected to the MIDI IN
connector of a second keyboard (synthesizer, etc.) or a tone generator (essentially a
synthesizer with no keyboard), the second keyboard or tone generator will respond
precisely to notes played on the original transmitting keyboard. The result is that you
can effectively play two instruments at once, pro viding thick multi-instrument sounds.
The PSR-330 also transmits “program change” data when one of its voices is selected.
Depending on how the receiving device is set up, the corresponding voice will be
automatically selected on the receiving keyboard or tone generator whenev er a voice
is selected on the PSR-330.
PSR-330
The PSR-330 is capable of receiving the same MIDI data, so a second MIDI
keyboard connected to the PSR-330 MIDI IN connector can be used to remotely play
the PSR-330 and select voices as required.

■ MIDI Sequence Recording
Although the PSR-330 features a built-in “sequencer” (the SONG recorder is a type
of sequencer), the same type of musical information transfer described above can be
used for more sophisticated MIDI sequence recording using an external sequencer or
music computer. A MIDI sequence recorder or music computer can be used to
“record” MIDI data received from a PSR-330, for example. When the recorded data
is played back, the PSR-330 automatically “plays” the recorded performance in
precise detail.

■ Transmit Channel & Transmit Track
The PSR-330 can simultaneously transmit data on all 16 MIDI channels. The
Transmit Channel and Transmit Track functions determine what PSR-330 data is
transmitted via which MIDI channels.
● Transmit Channel
The “Tr.Ch” function selects a MIDI channel to which a PSR-330 track can be
assigned via the Transmit Track function, below. First select a transmit channel,
then the transmit track for that channel. Different tracks can be assigned to each of
the 16 MIDI channels. Any of the standard MIDI channels - 1 through 16 — can
be specified.

Tr.Ch
● Transmit T rack
The “Tr.Trk” function selects the track to be transmitted via the transmit channel
specified by the Transmit Channel function, above. The available settings are as
follows:
• The initial default
channel/track settings
are:
Channel 1: R1 voice.
Channel 2: L voice
Channel 11: R2 voice.
All other channels:
OFF.
• When a track is assigned to more than
one MIDI channel, the
data from that track is
transmitted via the
lowest-numbered
channel.
• To avoid MIDI loops
which can cause operational errors, check
the PSR-330 Local
Control setting (page
70), and the MIDI
THRU settings of any
external MIDI devices.
• MIDI transmit track
settings will be retained even after turning the power off. See

it to function as a 16-channel multi-timbral tone generator. The Recei ve Channel and
Receive Mode functions determine how each c hannel will respond to receiv ed MIDI
data.
● Receive Channel
The “Rcv.Ch” function selects a MIDI channel to which a receive mode is to be
assigned via the Receive Mode function, below . First select a receive channel, then

■ Local Control
“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally , the PSR-330 keyboard controls the
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 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 can respond to MIDI
information received on channels set to the “nor” (normal) mode via the MIDI IN
connector. This means that while an external MIDI sequencer, for e xample, plays the
PSR-330 internal voices, an external tone generator can be played from the PSR-330
keyboard. The default Local Control setting is “on”.

■ Clock
Reception of an external MIDI clock signal can be enabled or disabled as required.
When disabled (“off”), all of the time-based functions (Auto Accompaniment, SONG
recording and playback, etc.) are controlled by its own internal clock. When MIDI
clock reception is enabled (“on”), however, all timing is controlled by an external
MIDI clock signal received via the MIDI IN terminal (in this case the PSR-330
TEMPO setting has no effect). The default setting is “off”.

■ Bulk Data Send
This function causes the contents of the registration and song memories to be
transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector. This data can be saved to memory or disk
via a MIDI sequence recorder or MIDI data recorder, and then reloaded when required.
The bulk data can also be sent directly to a second PSR-330.
To send the bulk data select the “BlkSnd?” function, then press the [+] (YES)

Troubleshooting
Something not working as it should? In many cases what appears to be a malfunction can
be traced to a simple error that can be remedied immediately . Before assuming that your PSR330 is faulty, please check the following points.
PROBLEMPOSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
The speakers produce a “pop” sound whenever the power is
turned ON or OFF.
The volume is reduced or the sound is distorted.
The registration memory doesn’t work properly.
Recorded song data will not play back properly.
The display goes bland and all panel controls are reset.
No sound when the keyboard is played.
Not all simultaneously-played notes sound.
Auto Accompaniment seems to “skip” when the keyboard is
played.
Auto Accompaniment doesn’t sound when started.
Auto accompaniment won’t function properly. No lower keyboard sound.
The Harmony function will not turn on.
Certain notes sound at the wrong pitch.
A cartridge style or song cannot be selected or will not play
properly.
Operation of the sustain pedal is reversed.
Individual registration or song memory data transmitted via bulk
dump from an external sequencer or other device is not received
by the PSR-330.
This is normal and is no cause for alarm.
The batteries probably need to be replaced. Either replace all six
batteries, or use an AC power adaptor.
The R1/R2/L voice volume settings could be set too lo w. Make
sure the voice volumes are set at appropriate levels (page 58).
The Local Control function could be turned off. Mak e sure Local
Control is turned on (page 70).
You are probably exceeding the maximum polyphony of the
PSR-330. The PSR-330 can play up to 31 notes at the same
time — including split, dual, auto-accompaniment, song, and
multi pad notes. Notes exceeding this limit will not sound.
The MIDI Clock mode may be set to “on”. Make sure it is turned
“off” (page 70).
Make sure that all accompaniment tracks are turned on, and that
the they are all set to appropriate volume levels.
Make sure you are using fingerings recognized by the selected
fingering mode, and are playing in the Auto Accompaniment
section of the keyboard.
Are you sure you’re pla ying in the Auto-Accompaniment section
of the keyboard? Make sure that the A uto Accompaniment split
point is set appropriately (page 27).
Are you playing chords that the PSR-330 can recognize (see
chord types on page 29~)?
Harmony cannot be turned on when the FULL KEYBOARD
fingering mode is selected or if a percussion kit voice is selected.
Select an appropriate fingering mode or voice.
Make sure that the scale tuning value for those notes is set to “0”
(page 64).
Make sure that an appropriate Yamaha Music Cartridge is
properly plugged into the cartridge slot (page 55), or the cartridge contacts are dirty. Try re-inserting the cartridge. If the
contacts are dirty removing and inserting the cartridge several
times will sometimes solve the problem. If this doesn’t work, try
wiping the cartridge connectors carefully with a soft, dry cloth.
Sustain pedal operation will be reversed if you turn on the power
or plug in the pedal while pressing the pedal. For normal
operation turn off the power then turn it back on while the pedal
is not pressed.
T ransmit the data with no more than a 2-second break betw een
blocks, or transmit as entirely separate data.

Voice List
■ Maximum Polyphony
The PSR-330 has 31-note maximum polyphony. This means that it play a
maximum of up to 31 notes at once, regardless of what functions are used.
Auto Accompaniment uses a number of the available notes, so when Auto
Accompaniment is used the total number of notes that can be played on the
keyboard is correspondingly reduced. The same applies to the Dual Voice,
Split Voice, Multi Pad, and Song functions. Furthermore, some of the PSR330 voices actually use two notes, thus reducing the total number of notes that
can be played. The number of notes used by each voice are listed in the voice
list, below.
When the maximum 31-note polyphony of the PSR-330 is exceeded, notes
are played using last-note priority.

Data Backup & Initialization
■ Data Backup
Except for the data listed below, all PSR-330 panel settings are reset to their initial
settings whenever the power is turned on.
• Registration Memory
• User Song Data
• MIDI Transmit Settings
• MIDI Receive Settings
The data listed above can be backed up — i.e. retained in memory — as long as a
working set of batteries is installed and you keep the following Off/On procedure.
z Turn the power OFF by pressing the [STAND BY/ON] switch.
x Unplug the DC output cable of the PA-5, PA-5B, or P A-5C from the DC IN 10-12V
jack on the rear panel of the PSR-330.
c Then unplug the PA-5, PA-5B, or PA-5C Power Adaptor from the wall AC outlet.
When turning the power ON, simply reverse the procedure.
■ Data Initialization
All data can be initialized and restored to the factory preset condition by turning on the
power while holding the highest (rightmost) white key on the keyboard. “CLr BackUp”
will appear briefly on the display.

*0 By default (factory settings) the PSR-330 ordinarily functions as a
16 channel multi-timbral tone generator. The Remote Channel can
be designated with the panel settings. The designated channel can
be controlled in the same manner as the PSR-330’s keyboard ON/
OFF control. The following messages can be received by the
designated channel in this mode. All other messages will be
ignored.

*1 BANK SELECT
• The bank select MSB is used for melody and rhythm voice
• Simultaneously changes the tuning of all channels.
• “mm, ll” is used as the MIDI Master Tuning Value. The tuning
value is represented as follows:
T=M-128 (28<=M<=228)
T: Tuning Value (in cents)
M: is decimal value represented by 1-byte using bits 0..3 of
“mm” as the MSB and bits 0..3 of “ll” as the LSB.
• The default values for “mm” and “ll” are 08H, 00H. Also, n and
cc are recognized.
• This value is not reset by a GM System ON or Reset All
Controllers message.
Other than 00H, any LSB effect type that has no effect name in its corresponding part,
will be directed to the corresponding effect type of the MSB value and LSB 00H.

◆ GM System Level 1
The existing MIDI protocol allows performance and other data to be transferred between different
instruments, even if they are from differ ent manufacturers. This means, for example, that sequence data that
was originally created to control a tone generator from manufacturer A can also be used to control a dif ferent
tone generator from manufacturer B. Since the voice allocation in different devices from different
manufacturers is usually different, howe ver, appropriate program change data must be transmitted to select
the right voices.
The General MIDI protocol was developed to minimize confusion and the need for re-programming
when playing software created by one MIDI device on another. This has been achieved by defining a
standard voice allocation in which the same or similar voices are accessed by the same program change
numbers or MIDI channels. The current standard recognized by the International MIDI Association is
known as “GM System Level 1.” The PSR-330 voice allocation complies with the GM System Level 1
standard.
