peatedly.
REPEAT FOLDER
Determines the directory in which the songs are played in sequence when the RE-
PEAT MODE is set to “ALL” or “RANDOM.” Here, the directory refers to the path
(page 72) memorized to each of the SONG [I] - [VI] buttons.

song, starting with the currently selected song.

Sequentially plays all songs in all directories (memorized to the SONG [I] - [VI]
buttons. Playback starts with the currently selected song, then the remainder
of the songs in the current directory, followed by the songs in the other directo-
ries.
PHRASE MARK REPEAT
Phrase Mark is a pre-programmed part of some song data, which specifies a cer-
tain location (set of measures) in the song. When this is on, the section corre-
sponding to the specified Phrase Mark number is repeatedly played back (page 91)
LEFT CH
This parameter is available when the AUTO CH SET below is set to “OFF.” This
parameter determines which MIDI channel in the song data is assigned to the Left-
hand part of the Guide function and the Song Score function.
RIGHT CH
This parameter is available when the AUTO CH SET below is set to OFF. This
parameter determines which MIDI channel in the song data is assigned to the
Right-hand part of the Guide function and the Song Score function.
HARMONY CH Determines the MIDI channel in the song data of which the note events are used
for applying the Vocal Harmony to the microphone sound.
AUTO CH SET
When set to “ON,” this automatically sets the proper MIDI channels for the Right-
and Left hand parts preprogramed in the commercially available song data. Nor-
mally, this should be set to “ON.” If this is set to “OFF,” the LEFT CH and RIGHT
CH parameters above are available.
LYRICS LANGUAGE
Determines the language of the displayed lyrics.
AUTO
When the language is specified in the song data, the lyrics are displayed ac-
cordingly. When the language is not specified in the song data and the Lan-
guage parameter on the [FUNCTION] UTILITY OWNER display (page
158) is set to JAPANESE, the lyrics language is regarded as JAPANESE be-
low. When the language is not specified in the song data and the Language
parameter on the [FUNCTION] UTILITY OWNER display (page 158) is
set to something other than JAPANESE, the lyrics language is regarded as
INTERNATIONAL below.
JAPANESE
Handles the displayed lyrics as Japanese.
INTERNATIONAL
Handles the displayed lyrics as a western language.
QUICK START
On some commercially available song data, certain settings related to the song
(such as voice selection, volume, etc.) are recorded to the first measure, before the
actual note data. When Quick Start is set to “ON,” the TYROS reads all initial non-
note data of the song at the highest possible speed, then automatically slows down
to the appropriate tempo at the first note. This allows you to start playback as quick-
ly as possible, with a minimum pause for reading of data.
