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 userserviceable parts. [. . . ] You can, for example, configure the AN1x to use After Touch to apply vibrato, or the Modulation Wheel to change the resonance while you play, determine the range for both Pitch Bend up and down, and much more. The Control Matrix is a configuration of 16 sets of control setup parameters and 2 sets of common parameters. The 16 parameter sets apply to each Scene and the common parameters apply to the voice. Each set consists of Set Number, Parameter, Source, and Depth parameters.
A blank chart is available for writing down Parameter and Source settings of the Control Matrix; see page 114.
To enable the Portamento function, press the [PORTAMENTO] switch on the panel (see page 24). If the PEG/LFO Portamento Time parameter (see page 56) is set to "0", Portamento will have no effect. Settings: When Poly = Poly: normal: Normal portamento play. sus-key: With this setting, the Hold tone (by a sustain pedal) is specified as the starting pitch of the portamento. When Poly = Mono, Legato: fingerd (Fingered): Portamento is only enabled by legato performance. full time: Portamento is always enabled. The Portamento setting mode here is effective and can be heard when the panel [PORTAMENTO] switch is set to "ON".

Convenient Parameter Control
You can use the Control Matrix sets to assign a single controller to control more than one parameter, or multiple controllers to control the same parameter. 1] One controller to control more than one parameter
Set 1 2 Param VCF Cutoff Resonance Source A. MW A. MW Depth +25 +30
q Set No
(Set Number)
The Set Number parameter lets you select Pitch Bend Pitch Up and Down, the number of the Set (1-16), and Common (1 and 2) parameter assignments.
Settings: [Ex. 2] Multiple controllers to control the same parameter
Set 1 2 Param VCF Cutoff VCF Cutoff Source A. MW A. RbX Depth +20 -10
PB Pitch : Selects the Pitch Bend Up parameter for setting the range over which the pitch bends up (above a value of 64) when rolling the Pitch Bend wheel between center and maximum forward position (for the selected Scene). PB Pitch : Selects the Pitch Bend Down parameter for setting the range over which the pitch bends down (below a value of 64) when rolling the Pitch Bend wheel between center and maximum back position (for the selected Scene). Set 1 ~ 16: Selects the Set Number to which you want to assign Parameter, Source and Depth settings (for the selected Scene). Comn 1 ~ 2 (Common Set 1 ~ 2): Selects the Common Set number to which you want to assign Parameter (Off, Common Volume, Common Pan, Variation Parameter, Delay Return, Reverb Return), Source and Depth settings (applied to both Scenes).
Procedure For Using The Control Matrix
1. Select the Parameter you want to control. Select the Source (controller) for the parameter control. Repeat steps 1-4 to assign additional controller sets. For more information about the Control Matrix, the separate Data List book.
q Parameter
The Parameter setting determines which parameter is assigned to the Set Number (1-16) or Common Set (12). When Set No is set to "PB" or "PB" you don't need to select the Parameter because these are the parameters for Pitch Bend.
Settings: For a list of Control Matrix parameters, see the separate Data List book.
74
q Source
The Source setting determines which controller (by Control Change number) is assigned to control the corresponding Parameter.
You cannot assign the same Source controller and Parameter to more than one set. If you attempt to, lower-numbered sets will take priority, and " " will appear in the LCD for higher-numbered sets. When you select [RIBBON] controller "A. RbX" as the "Source" controller and Pitch Up/Pitch Down as the "Parameter", the [RIBBON] controller value will be reset to the center position when you release your finger from the [RIBBON]. [. . . ] Some Yamaha products may have benches and/or accessory mounting fixtures that are either supplied with the product or as optional accessories. Some of these items are designed to be dealer assembled or installed. Please make sure that benches are stable and any optional fixtures (where applicable) are well secured BEFORE using. Benches supplied by Yamaha are designed for seating only. [. . . ]
