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-6 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 multipleconnector. 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

• 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.

Make sure to discard used batteries according to local regulations.

Shortcuts

To make operation as easy and as efficient as possible, the PSR-730/630 features a number of “shortcuts” which allow you to jump directly to certain functions without having to use the MENU and SUB MENU buttons. All of these shortcuts work in the same way: press and hold a panel button for a few seconds to go to the related function. For example, if you press and hold the [REVERB] button for a few seconds , y ou will go directly to the REVERB type selection function. The shorcuts will also be described where appropriate throughout this manual.

Setting Up

This section contains information about setting up your PSR-730/630 and preparing to play. Be sure to go through this section carefully before using your PSR-730/630.

Power Supply

• Never interrupt the power supply (e.g. remove the

Although the PSR-730/630 will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries, Y amaha recommends use of the more environmentally safe A C adaptor. Follow the instructions below according to the power source you intend to use .

■ Using An Optional AC Power Adaptor

batteries or unplug the AC adaptor) during any PSR-730/630 record operation! Doing so can result in a loss of data.

z Plug an optional Yamaha PA-6 Power Adaptor into a wall AC outlet. x Then plug the DC output cable from the PA-6 into the DC IN 10-12V jack on

the rear panel of the PSR-730/630. The internal batteries are automatically disconnected when an AC Power Adaptor is used.

DC IN 10-12V

PA-6

When turning the power OFF, simply reverse the procedure.

■ Using Batteries

For battery operation the PSR-730/630 requires six 1.5V SUM-1, “D” size, R20 or equivalent batteries. When the batteries need to be replaced “Lo Battery!!” may appear on top of the display, the volume ma y 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.

• Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-6 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-730/630.

• Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the PSR730/630, or during electrical storms.

• When the batteries run down, replace them with a complete set of six new batteries. NEVER mix old and new batteries.

• Do not use different kinds of batteries (e.g. alkaline and manganese) at the same time.

• 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.

• Plugging or unplugging the AC power adaptor while the batteries are installed will reset the PSR730/630 to the defaults.

◆ Important Notes on Battery Use

• Since the PSR-730 and PSR-630 consume a considerable amount of power , Yamaha recommends the use of an A C power adaptor rather than batteries. The batteries should be considered an auxiliary power source for data backup.

• The floppy disk drive, in pa rticular, uses a large amount of power, so it is impor tant to always use an AC power ada ptor when performing disk-intensive operations such as song recording/playback or data load/save. If you attempt to use battery power for these operations and the batteries do fail, you will lose not only the data you’re recording or sa ving, b ut also

other data in internal memory including user styles, user pads, registration memory, etc.

• Taking the above precautions into consideration, always use an AC power adaptor when using the PSR-630/730 for an important performance or when creating important data.

• When using batteries and the “Lo Battery!!” war ning initially appears on the display, the v olume will drop a little but you will be able to use the instrument for a while longer. When the “Lo Battery!!” warning begins to appear every few seconds, replace the batteries as soon as possible.

Connections

■ PHONES Jack

■ SUSTAIN Pedal Jack

SUSTAIN

■ FOOT VOLUME Jack

FOOT VOL

A standard pair of stereo headphones can be plugged in here for private pr actice or late-night playing. The internal stereo speaker system is automatically shut off when a pair of headphones is plugged into the PHONES jack.

Do not listen with the headphones at high volume for long periods of time. Doing so may cause hearing loss.

The sustain function causes the sound from a depressed key to continue, even after the key is released. Plug an optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitch into the sustain jack and use it to switch sustain on and off. The footswitch connected to this jack can also be set to replicate the functions of some panel buttons, doing things like starting and stopping accompaniment (page

117).

Connecting an optional Y amaha FC7 foot controller lets you use your foot to change the volume as you play the PSR-730/630 (expression function). The foot controller connected to this jack can also be set to replicate the functions of the main volume controls, such as accompaniment or song volume (page 117).

Setting Up

• 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.

• When the sustain or sostenuto pedal functions are being used (page 117), some voices may sound continuously or have a long decay after the notes have been released while the pedal is held.

The rear-panel AUX OUT R and L/L+R jacks

deliver the output of the PSR-730/630 for connection to a keyboard amplifier, stereo sound system, a mixing console, or tape recorder. If you will be connecting the PSR-730/630 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 ar e combined and delivered via the L/L+R jack so you don’t lose any of the PSR-730/630 sound. (Use phone plugs).

• Connecting PSR730/630 to external equipment only after turning off power for all devices. To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the external devices at the minimum setting before connecting them. Failure to observe these cautions may result in electric shock or equipment damage.

The Demonstration

Once you’ve set up your PSR-730/630, try listening to the pre-progr ammed demonstration songs. A total of 15 demo songs are provided.

Switch ON

Turn the power ON by pressing the [STAND BY/ON] switch.

STAND BY ON

• Even when the switch is in the “STAND BY” position, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the PSR-730/630 for a long time, make sure you unplug the AC power adoptor from the wall AC outlet, and/or remove the batteries from the instrument.

Set an Initial Volume Level

◆ Accompaniment Sections

There are 8 types of Auto Accompaniment sections that allow you to vary the arrangement of the accompaniment to match the song you are playing. They are: Intro, Main A and B, Fill-in (AA, AB, BA, BB) and Ending. By switching between them while playing you can put together a single song.

INTRO

MAIN / AUTO FILL

● INTRO Section

This is the beginning of the song. When the intro finishes playing, accompaniment shifts to the main section.

● MAIN Section

There are two variations that can play in the main section of the song: A and B. The Auto Accompaniment will automatically play following along with the chords that you play.

● FILL-IN Section

Fill-in livens up pauses in the song. W henever you press the MAIN/AUT O FILL [A] or [B] button during accompaniment, the PSR-730/630 will generate an appropriate “fill-in” (one of four types: AA, AB, BA, and BB) which will smoothly connect the current section to the selected section — even if it is the same section.

ENDING

Auto Accompaniment

• You can use the intro section even in the middle of the song by pressing the INTRO button during the song.

• If the MAIN/AUTO FILL A/B button is pressed after the final half beat (eighth note) of the measure, fill-in will begin from the next measure.

• You can begin the accompaniment by using the ending instead of the intro section.

● ENDING Section

This is the ending portion of the song. When the ending is finished, Auto Accompaniment will stop.

◆ Accompaniment T rack Muting

The PSR-730/630 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.

Individual accompaniment tracks can be turned OFF (muted) or ON by pressing the TRACK buttons corresponding to the target tracks. The track icon will disappear when a track is muted.

• Notes in parentheses can be omitted.

• If you play any three adjacent keys (including black keys), the chord sound will be canceled and only the rhythm instruments will continue playing (CHORD CANCEL function).

• Playing a single key or two same root keys in the adjacent octaves 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 listed are all in “root” position, but other inversions can be used — with the following exceptions:

5, 6, m6,

m7, m7 sus4, aug, dim7,

5, 6(9), m7(11),

7 1+2+5.

• Inversion of the 7sus4 chord is not recognized if the 5th is omitted.

• The AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT will sometimes not change when related chords are played in sequence (e.g. some minor chords followed by the minor seventh).

• Two-note fingerings will produce a chord based on the previously played chord.

● The FINGERED 2 Mode

gered 2de: FinFingerMo

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.

● The FULL KEYBOARD Mode (Full Key)

l Keyde: FulFingerMo

When the FULL KEYBOARD Mode is selected, the PSR-730/630 will automatically create appropriate accompaniment while you play just about anything using both hands, anywhere on the keyboar d. You do not have to worry about specifying the accompaniment chords. The name of the detected chord will appear in the display.

• When the FULL KEYBOARD mode is selected, the split point setting (see page 30) for the auto accompaniment will be ignored.

• Chord detection occurs at approximately 8th-note intervals. Extremely short chords — less than an 8th note in length — may not be detected.

● The MULTI-FINGER Mode (Multi)

tide: MulFingerMo

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-730/630 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 .

Auto Accompaniment

• If you want to play minor, seventh or minor seventh chords using the SINGLE FINGER operation in the MULTI-FINGER Mode, always press the closest white/black key(s) to the root of the chord.

• When the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT split point and SPLIT VOICE split point are set to the same key, the L voice and the automatically selected bass note will sound.

Groove and Dynamics (PSR-730)

The PSR-730 Groove & Dynamics function lets you temporarily change the timing, velocity and gate time of notes during playback of any of the preset accompaniment styles (style numbers 1-100).

● Groove .......... Lets you play the music with some swing or put a little groove

in the beat by making subtle shifts in the timing (clock) of the accompaniment.

● Dynamics...... Changes the impression of the accompaniment by varying the

velocity of the notes in relation to the timing.

The Groove & Dynamics function is composed of the four items belo w . When you choose an accompaniment style, the most appropriate template or value for each item will be automatically set.

• Beat Groove Template (Automatically selected from 49 types)

• Measure Groove Template (Automatically selected from 25 types)

• Dynamics Template (Automatically selected from 17 types)

• Dynamics Rate (Automatically set within a range of 0-100%)

• Expand Rate (Automatically set within a range of 0-400%)

• Boost Rate (Automatically set within a range of 0-400%)

Multi Effect (PSR-730)

Multi Effect allows you to apply three types of eff ects (reverb, chorus and DSP) more powerfully and effectivel y.

■ How Multi Effect Works

With Multi Effect, you can combine 2 ef fects (Effect 1/2) and apply them to the output from the keyboard (R1/R2/L parts).

There are 2 ways to combine the effects; in series or in parallel.

Example 1) Applying Effects 1 and 2 to separate parts (parallel)

• By adding Multi-Effect

to Reverb, Chorus and DSP, the PSR730 can have up to 5 system effects.

• Since Multi-Effect is

installed closer to the tone generator than Reverb, Chorus or DSP, it can function as an insertion effect. See page 143, “About Digital Effects.”

The Digital Equalizer (PSR-730)

Usually an equalizer is used to correct the sound output from amps or speakers to match the special character of the room. The sound is divided into se v eral fr equency bands, then by raising or lowering the level for eac h band, the corr ection is made.

Adjusting the sound you play according to the genre—classical music more refined, pops music more crisp, and rock music more dynamic—can also serve to draw out the special characteristics of the music and make your performance more enjoyable.

The PSR-730 possesses a high grade 5 band digital equalizer function. With this function, a final effect—tone control—can be added to the output of your instrument.

Using the Digital Equalizer (PSR-730)

If you press the [DIGITAL EQ] button, the DIGITAL EQ icon will light up, and the Digital EQ effect will be turned on. After setting the Digital EQ type, the equalizer effect will be applied to the overall output of the PSR-730.

◆ Floppy Disk Handling Precautions

Floppy disks are an inexpensive, convenient, and reliable way to store your music data. They are not indestructable, however, and should be handled with care. Observe the following points to ensure the long-term safety of your disks and data.

Type of Disk

• Use the 3.5-inch 2DD or 2HD floppy disks with the PSR-730/

630.

Taking Care of Your Floppy Disks

• Never attempt to eject a disk during a read or write operation (i.e. while the disk drive is operating). Doing so can damage both the disk and the drive.

• Never turn the power ON or OFF while a disk is in the drive. Always eject the disk before turning the power OFF.

• To eject a floppy disk from the disk drive press the eject button slowly as far as it will go. Then when the disk is fully ejected, remove it by hand. The disk may not be ejected properly if the eject button is pressed too quickly or if it is not pressed in far enough (the eject button may become stuck halfway with the disk extending from the slot by only a few millimeters). If this is the case, do not attempt to pull out the partially ejected disk. Doing so may damage the disk drive mechanism and/or the floppy disk. To remove a partially ejected disk, try pressing the eject button once again or push the disk back into the slot, then repeat the eject procedure carefully.

This lamp is always on when the power is on, regardless of Disk operation.

• Do not insert anything but floppy disks into the disk drive. Other objects can damage the disk drive or floppy disk.

• Never open the disk shutter by hand or touch the internal surface of the disk. Dirt, dust, or grease on the disk’s magnetic surface can cause data errors.

• Never leave disks near a speaker, TV, or other device that emits a strong magnetic field. Strong magnetic fields can partially erase the data on the disk.

• Do not store disks in places exposed to direct sunlight or other sources of heat. The acceptable storage temperature range is approximately 4° to 53° C (39° to 127° F).

• Do not store disks in areas subject to extreme dryness or humidity. The acceptable relative humidity range is approximately 8 to 90%.

• Do not store disks in areas contaminated with dust, sand, smoke, etc.

• Do not place heavy objects such as books on top of a disk.

• Avoid getting floppy disks wet, particularly with oily or sticky fluids. A disk that has been wet with water should be allowed to dry naturally before use. Disks contaminated by other fluids can cause damage to the disk drive and should be discarded.

• Be sure to apply the disk label at the proper position. When changing the label never cover the old label with a new label; always remove the old label first.

Head Cleaning

• With extended use the read/write head of the disk drive will pick up dust and other particles that will eventually cause data errors. If this occurs, clean the head with a 3.5 inch head cleaning disk available from most computer supply stores.

Data Backup

• For maximum data security we strongly recommended that you keep two copies of important data on separate floppy disks. These disks should ideally be stored in separate locations. This gives you a backup if one disk is lost or damaged.

Protecting Your Data (Write Protect Tab)

• To prevent accidental erasure of important data, slide the disk’s write-protect tab to the “protect” position (tab open). If you attempt to modify the disk when the write-protect tab is set to ON position, “Disk Write Protected!!” will appear on the display indicating that the operation is not possible.

■ User Song Data

User song data is saved directly to the disk without saving it in the PSR-730/630 itself.

User Song

Record

(Direct save)

Maximum of 60 files can be saved.

■ User Style/User Pad/Registration Memory Data

The PSR-730/630 has User Style, User Pad and Registration Memory functions installed. The data recorded with these functions can also be saved individually or gathered together to floppy disks and also the data (files) saved on disks can be loaded individually or gathered together into the PSR-730/630.

Disk Operations

• It may not be possible to record the full 60 files to a disk, depending on the legnth of the recorded files.

• The maximum number of files may vary according to the type and volume of the saved files (page 68).

• When saving data, use a floppy disk formatted on the PSR730/630.

• The three letters after the file name (after the period) are called the extension. The extension shows the type of file.

• Since the user songs are directly recorded to the disk as you play during recording and read from the disk during playback, the Save/Load functions are not available. The Disk Copy, Song Copy and Delete File operations related to the user songs can be executed.

■ Using Commercially Available Music Collections

(Sold Separately)

The PSR-730/630 can playback commercially available XG/GM music collection or YAMAHA DOC collection (Disk Orchestra Collection) disk files. It can also load styles collected on YAMAHA style file disks.

The PSR-730/630 can handle music disks (floppy disks) that bear the following marks:

You can playback song files collected on these disks using the voices defined in the GM standard.

You can playback songs using the XG format, an extension of the GM standard that allows for much higher sound quality.

You can playback song files collected on these disks using the voices defined in Yamaha’s DOC format.

You can load and play with the style files collected on these disks.

• With song data software that includes lyrics, you can view the lyrics in the display during playback. Consult your Yamaha dealer for information on song data that is compatible with the Lyrics Display function of the PSR-730/

630.

The Sample Disk

Try playing some of the songs on the included Sample Disk.

Insert the Sample Disk into the Disk Drive .

Once the disk is inserted, the menu icon on the display will automatically switch to the song menu, and the currently selected song name and song number will appear at the upper left of the display. The PSR-730/630 will switch into Song Mode. The SONG icon will light along with the DISK (floppy disk) icon and the XG icon.

Start and Stop the Song

Press the [ST ART/STOP] button, and playback of the Sample Disk song will beg in.

After finishing your recording of a user song, you can play it back in the same way as one of the preset demo songs.

The data you can record in user songs using Quick Recording or Multi Recording are as follows:

The accompaniment tracks record the following and data:

• Accompaniment style number*

• Accompaniment track changes* (8 tracks: track on/off, voice number, volume, pan, reverb depth, chorus depth)

• Section changes and their timing

• Chord changes and their timing.

• Accompaniment volume

• Reverb type.

• Chorus type.

• Tempo and time signature*

The keyboard (R1/R2/L) tracks record the following and data:

• Note on/off (key press and release)

• Velocity (strength of key press)

• R1/R2/L voice number, volume, octa ve*, pan, rev erb depth, chorus depth, DSP depth.

• Reverb on/off and type

• Chorus on/off and type

• DSP (including variation) on/off and type

The maximum amount of song memory is 65,000 notes for 2DD disks and 130,000 notes for 2HD disks. * Recorded only at the beginning of a song; changes cannot be made during recording.

• Multi effect on/off, type and settings (PSR-730)

• Harmony on/off, type

• Sustain pedal on/off

• Pitch bend, pitch bend range.

• Tempo

• Being able to record note on/off and velocity means being able to record forte or piano, crescendo or diminuendo, and other subtle elements of expression from the keyboard as you play them.

■ About the Recording with the Digital Effects Applied

Only one type of each of the Digital Effects, Reverb, Chor us, DSP and Multi Effect (PSR-730) can be set at one time. Be aware of the following facts, especially when recording a song with different effects applied to the different trac ks.

Reverb type and Chorus type effects can be set and recorded independently for

each of the 16 tracks. However, only the latest settings made (one each) will be effective if several effects are used in a song (the latest setting priority).

[EX.] While the panel REVERB button is turned on:

1. Select the Hall 1 (Reverb) f or the Accompaniment trac k, and record the Accompaniment track for ten measures from the beginning.

2. Start recording the keyboard (R1) track with the Hall 1 (Re verb) selected from the beginning and then change the effect type to Room 1 (Reverb) respectively from the fifth measure through the end.

When you play back the song recorded as above, the first four measures will be played back with the Hall 1 applied to both the Accompaniment track and keyboard (R1) track, and the remaining six measures, from fifth through the end, with the Room 1 applied to both tracks. The effect types set for the Accompaniment track are replaced with the latest settings. Only the Depth for each track remains the same.

DSP type effects can be set and recorded for R1/R2/L part(s) when used as System

effect and for R1 part when used as Insertion effect. They can’ t be recorded for the track used as the Accompaniment and/or Harmon y part. During playback, only the latest setting will be effective if se v eral types are used for the tracks in a song (the latest setting priority).

[EX.]

1. Turn on the panel DSP button, and start recording on the track 1 with the Distortion (DSP type: No.42 Dist.Hard) selected for ten measures from the beginning.

2. Turn off the panel DSP button, and start recording on the track 2 without any eff ect from the beginning. Then turn on the panel DSP button again at the fifth measure , and continue recording to the end with the Rotary Speaker (DSP type: No .28 Rotary SP.1) selected.

When you play back the song recorded with the above condition, the first four measures will be played back with the Distortion applied only to track 1, and the remaining six measures, from the fifth through the end, with the Rotary Speaker applied only to track 2. The DSP type set for track 1 is replaced by the one set for the track 2.

Song Recording

(PSR-730)

Multi effects can be set and recorded for R1/R2/L part(s). They can’ t be recorded for the track used as the Accompaniment and/or Har mony part. During playback, only the latest setting will be effective if several types are used for the tracks in a song (the latest setting priority).

[EX.] Two Multi Effect types set in series for R1

1. Multi Effect is turned on and 10 measures are recorded for R1 on track 1.

2. Recording is started for R1 on track 2 with Multi eff ect off, and then it is turned on at the fifth measure.

When you play back the song recorded with the above conditions, the first four measures will be played back with the Multi Effect applied only to track 1, and the remaining six measures, from the fifth through the end, with Multi Effect applied only to track 2.

Song Recording

The data recorded on tracks for keyboard playing (R1/R2/L) can be re-recorded in

parts with the Punch In/Punch Out feature.
