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 multiple-connec- tor. 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.
•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 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, 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.
•Use only the stand/rack specified for the instrument. When attaching the stand or rack, 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.

Vocal Harmony (PSR-740)
•The amazing Vocal Harmony feature (on the PSR-740) automatically produces backup vocal harmonies for lead
vocals that you sing into a microphone. You can even change the gender of the harmony voices — for example, letting you add female backup to your own male voice (or vice versa). (→ Page 82)
MIDI
•MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a worldwide standard interface that allows various electronic music instruments, computers and other devices to communicate with each other. The MIDI features let you seamlessly integrate the PSR-740/640 into a variety of systems and applications:

PSR-740/640 for your specific MIDI system/application. (→ Page 128)
Panel logos
The logos printed on the PSR-740/640 panel indicate standards/formats it supports and special features it includes.
GM System Level 1
“GM System Level 1” is an addition to the MIDI standard which guarantees that any data conforming to the standard will play accurately on any GM-compatible tone generator or synthesizer from any manufacturer.
XG
XG is a new Yamaha MIDI specification which significantly expands and improves on the GM System Level 1 standard with greater voice handling capacity, expressive control, and effect capability while retaining full compatibility with GM. By using the PSR-740/640’s XG voices, it is possible to record XG-compatible song files.
XF
The Yamaha XF format enhances the SMF (Standard MIDI File) standard with greater functionality and open-ended expandability for the future. The PSR-740/640 is capable of displaying lyrics when an XF file containing lyric data is played.
Vocal Harmony
Vocal Harmony employs state-of-the-art digital signal processing technology to automatically add appropriate vocal harmony to a lead vocal line sung by the user. Vocal Harmony can even change the character and gender of the lead voice as well as the added voices to produce a wide range of vocal harmony effects.
DOC
The DOC voice allocation format provides data playback compatibility with a wide range of Yamaha instruments and MIDI devices, including the Clavinova series.
Style File Format
The Style File Format — SFF — is Yamaha’s original style file format which uses a unique conversion system to provide high-quality automatic accompaniment based on a wide range of chord types. The PSR-740/640 uses the SFF internally, reads optional SFF style disks, and creates SFF styles using the Style Recording feature.

Setting Up
This section contains information about setting up your PSR-740/640 and preparing to play. Be sure to go through this section carefully before turning the power on.
Power supply connections
1 Make sure that the STANDBY/ON switch of the PSR-740/640 is set to STANDBY.
2 Connect the optional AC adaptor (PA-6 or other adaptor specifically recommended by Yamaha) to the power supply jack.
3 Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.
When turning the power OFF, simply reverse the procedure.
Connecting a footswitch
■ FOOT SWITCH jack
The sustain function lets you produce a natural sustain as you play by pressing a footswitch. Plug an optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitch into this 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 137).
CAUTION
• Never interrupt the power supply (e.g. unplug the AC adaptor) during any PSR740/640 record operation! Doing so can result in a loss of data.
WARNING
•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-740/ 640.
•Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the PSR-740/640, or during electrical storms.
•Recorded data is retained in memory even when the STANDBY switch is turned off if an AC adaptor is connected. For details, see page 159.
•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 137), some voices may sound continuously or have a long decay after the notes have been released while the pedal is held.
■ FOOT VOLUME jack
Connecting an optional Yamaha FC7 foot controller lets you use your foot to change the volume as you play the PSR-740/640 (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 138).

Setting Up
Audio equipment connections
■ AUX OUT R and L/L+R jacks
The rear-panel AUX OUT R and L/L+R jacks deliver the output of the PSR-740/640 for connection to a keyboard amplifier, stereo sound system, a mixing console, or tape recorder. If you will be connecting the PSR-740/640 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 leftand right-channel signals are combined and delivered via the L/L+R jack so you don’t lose any of the PSR-740/640 sound (use phone plugs).
CAUTION
• Connect the PSR-740/640 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.
Stereo System
■ PHONES jack
A standard pair of stereo headphones can be plugged in here for private practice or late-night playing. The internal stereo speaker system is automatically shut off when a pair of head phones 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.
Connecting a microphone (PSR-740)
■ MIC/LINE IN jack
The PSR-740 includes a microphone/line input jack into which just about any standard microphone or line-level source with a 1/4" phone plug can be plugged (a dynamic microphone with an impedance of 250 ohms is recommended). The microphone or line input can be used with the PSR-740’s vocal harmony function (pages 82). The panel MIC/LINE switch should be set according to the type of source used and the INPUT VOLUME control can be used to adjust the level of the microphone or line input signal. The SIGNAL and OVER indicators on the panel aid in setting the ideal input level: the green SIGNAL indicator should light when an input signal is present, but if the red OVER indicator lights the level should be reduced by using the INPUT VOLUME control, and if this is not sufficient, by reducing the level of the source signal itself.
•The Yamaha MZ106s microphone is recommended for use with the PSR-740.
•The level of the microphone sound may vary considerably according to the type of microphone used.
•Turn the INPUT VOLUME control all the way down when connecting or disconnecting a microphone.
•Placing a microphone which is connected to the PSR-740 too close to the PSR-740 speakers (or those of an external sound system connected to the
PSR-740) can cause feedback. Adjust the microphone position and the INPUT VOLUME level or MASTER VOLUME control level if necessary, so that feedback does not occur.

Demo Song Playback
Once you’ve set up your PSR-740/640, try listening to the pre-programmed demonstration songs. A total of 10 demo songs (8 demo songs for PSR-640) are provided.
1 Turn the power ON by pressing the [STANDBY/ON] switch.
Press the [STANDBY/ON] switch again to turn the power OFF.
CAUTION
• Even when the switch is in the “STANDBY” position, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the PSR-740/ 640 for a long time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet.

Pressing one of these buttons instantly calls up the relevant display for the selected function. See the function tree chart for details (page 22).
If you’ve selected several different functions’ displays in succession, you can “retrace your steps” and revisit each display by using the [BACK] and [NEXT] buttons at the left side of the display. Of course you can also directly select the desired displays by pressing the appropriate buttons (as listed above).

How to leave the current display
As shown in the function tree chart (page 22), there is a wide varierty of functions on the PSR-740/640, each with its own corresponding display. In order to leave the display of each function press the [EXIT] button.
Since the PSR-740/640 has so many different displays, you may occasionally find yourself confused as to which operation’s display is currently shown. If this happens, you can return to “home base” by pressing the [EXIT] button several times. This returns the PSR740/640 to the default display — the same display that appears when the power is turned on.

Help — How to Read the

There are two types of messages as shown below.
● Help
Pressing and holding the [HELP/DIRECT ACCESS] button shows a “balloon” to help you to understand the currently selected function or find an appropriate operation.
How to read
This message means “Select a voice with the data dial, the [+/ YES] button, the [-/NO] button or the Number buttons [0]-[9].”
● Operation Guide
This gives relevant information for the current operation and remains displayed until you execute the next operation.
How to read
This message means “Press the [+/YES] button to execute the SAVE operation.”
•Note that the example Operation Guide displays shown in this manual are in English.
Selecting the desired language of the Help messages

Basic Operation
Menu Selection
For certain operations on the PSR-740/640 (such as selecting voices, demo songs and styles), you’ll need to select different menus in the display.
For example, the display below (for selecting the function) appears when you press the
[FUNCTION] button.
In this case you can select the desired function by turning the data dial or move the cursor by pressing the [+/YES]/[-/NO] buttons.
Rotating the data dial to the right (clockwise) moves the cursor downward, while rotating it to the left (counter-clockwise) moves the cursor upward.
Pressing the [+/YES] button moves the cursor downward, while pressing the [-/NO] button moves the cursor upward.
The display below (for selecting voices) appears when you press the [VOICE R1] button.
In this case you can also select the voice by using the data dial or the [+/YES]/[-/NO] buttons as above; you can also input the voice number directly by using the number buttons [1]-[0] (See the next page).

Basic Operation
Changing (Editing) Values
This section shows you how to set numeric values on the PSR-740/640, such as voice number, song/style number and various parameters. Input the values by using the number buttons [1]-[0] or the [+/YES]/[-/NO] buttons.
Number buttons [1]-[0] described below.
Rotating the data dial to the right (clockwise) increases the value, while rotating it to the left (counter-clock- wise) decreases it.
Pressing the [+/YES] button increases the displayed value by 1. Pressing the [-/NO] button decreases the displayed value by 1. Pressing and holding either button causes a continuous increase and decrease.
For items that have initial default values, pressing the [+/YES] and the [-/NO] buttons together at the same time will return the setting to the initial value.
Numeric entry
The explanations here apply only to numbers that have a maximum of three digits, such as those for voices and styles.
• Entering oneor two-digit numbers
Oneor two-digit voice numbers can be entered with leading zeroes: e.g. “12” can be entered as “012” by pressing the [0], [1] and [2] buttons in sequence.
• Entering three-digit numbers
The number buttons can be used to directly enter the number of the desired voice, thereby immediately selecting that voice without having to step through a number of other voices. To select voice number 106, for example, press the [1], [0] and [6] number buttons in sequence.
•Oneor two-digit numbers can also be entered without leading zeroes.
To select number “12,” for example, simply press the [1] button and then the [2] button. The bars below the number on the display will flash for a few seconds, and then disappear when the selected number has been recognized by the PSR-740/ 640.
•On some occasions, “- - -” may appear in the parameter value part of the display. This indicates that the parameter is unavailable or cannot be changed (due to the current panel settings).

This function allows the overall pitch of the PSR-740/640 to be transposed up or down by a maximum of one octave in semitone increments.
Press the [TRANSPOSE] button.
Set the transposition.
Use the data dial, the [+/YES] button, the [-/NO] button or the number buttons
[1]-[0].
•The Transpose function cannot be applied when a drum kit is the selected voice (page 31).
•Press the [+/YES] and [-/NO] buttons simultaneously to instantly reset the transpose value to “0.”
•The new TRANSPOSE value will take effect from the next key played.
•Minus values can be entered by using the number buttons while holding the [-/NO] button.
Pitch Bend Wheel
Use the PSR-740/640 pitch bend wheel to bend notes up (roll the wheel away from you) or down (roll the wheel toward you) while playing the keyboard. The pitch bend wheel is self-centering and will automatically return to normal pitch when released.
•The maximum pitch bend range can be set via the Pitch Bend Range function in the Utility function group (page 139).
Wheel (PSR-740)
The Modulation function applies a vibrato effect to notes played on the keyboard (R1, R2, L voices). Moving the MODULATION wheel all the way towards yourself minimizes the depth of the effect, while rotating it away from yourself increases it.
•In order to avoid accidentally applying modulation when you don’t intend to, set the depth at its minimum setting.
•You can also assign other functions to the MODULATION Wheel (page 139).
