DATA

PART/ELEMENT

If you turn any knob clockwise, the value assigned to it is incremented. Conversely, the value is decremented if you turn it the other way.

Common system parameters are assigned to Knobs [A],[B] and [C] (Pages 41, 129). Voice-specific parameters are assigned to Knobs [1] and [2] (Pages 42, 69).

A preset of suitable parameter settings is assigned to each Voice. By using each knobs [1] and [2], you are in effect adjusting these settings by a certain amount. If these parameters are already preset at their minimum or maximum settings, the settings cannot be exceeded.

In any Edit Mode, Knobs [A], [B], [C], [1] and [2] are used for entering parameter settings on screen (Page 19).

Control Sliders

In Performance Mode, if Master Keyboard Mode is enabled, you can use the four Control Sliders to control the functions assigned to each zone.

Details are given on Pages 56 and 122.

Foot Controller

An optional Foot Controller (such as the FC7), connected to the FOOT CONTROLLER jack (Page 13) on the rear panel, can be assigned a number of controller parameters. By using a foot controller for parameter control, both your hands are left free to play the keyboard (or to operate other controllers). This is very convenient if you are playing live.

Foot Controller parameters can be set for each Voice.

Foot Switch

An optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5 Foot Switch connected to the rear panel FOOT SWITCH jack (Page 13) can be assigned to a range of parameters. It is suited for a switch-type (on/off) controls such as Portamento Switch, increment/decrement of a Voice or Performance Number, start/stop of the Sequencer, holding Arpeggiator on or off. The Foot Switch is not well suited for continuous control. You could also use it to switch to between different Voices or Performances

The parameter assigned to the Foot Switch is set in the CTRL Other screen of Utility Mode (Pages 43, 129).
