GS was developed by the Roland Corporation.
In the same way as Yamaha XG, GS is a major enhance-
ment of the GM specifically to provide more Voices and
Drum kits and their variations, as well as greater expres-
sive control over Voices and effects.

MIDI Settings

In this section, you can make MIDI-related settings for
the instrument. The PSR-3000/1500 gives you a set of
ten pre-programmed templates that let you instantly and
easily reconfigure the instrument to match your particu-
lar MIDI application or external device. Also, you can
edit the pre-programmed templates and save up to ten
of your original templates to the USER display. You can
then save all these original templates as a single file to
SmartMedia card or other external USB storage devices,
in the MIDI SETUP selection display (called up by
pressing [FUNCTION] → [I] UTILITY → TAB [F] SYS-
TEM RESET).
