User manual YAMAHA SY85F2

[. . . ] There's even a fullfeatured sequencer that allows the SY85F2F2 to function as a complete music workstation. In terms of sound, real-time control, and total production power, the SY85F2F2 offers unprecedented levels of quality and performance. We urge you to read the owner's manuals thoroughly in order to realize the full potential of the SY85F2F2 (see "About the Manuals" on page 7), and keep the manuals in a safe place for future reference. MAIN FEATURES q AWM2 Tone Generator System 2nd-generation Advanced Wave Memory (AWM2) technology delivers dazzling, true-to-life sound with 30-note polyphony. q Large-capacity Waveform ROM A large 6-megabyte waveform ROM provides plenty of capacity for topquality samples. [. . . ] [CS6] sets the maximum amount of amplitude (tremolo), pitch (vibrato), or filter cutoff (wahwah) modulation that can be applied to the current voice. A "0" setting produces no modulation while a setting of "127" produces maximum modulation. 7. Select and Set the EFFECT Type & Balance Parameters Use the PAGE [k] and [l] keys to locate the "QED EFFECT" screen. QED`EFFECT)```Type```````````Wet`Balance ``25:EG`Chorus```01:Rev. Hall1````````50% The SY85F2F2 features a complex, high-performance effect system that can be programmed easily via the parameters presented here and in the following screen. [CS1] selects any of the SY85F2F2's 90 effect types for the EFFECT 1 processor, and [CS4] does the same for the EFFECT 2 processor. See page 254 of the Feature Reference manual for more details on the SY85F2F2 effect system. [CS8] controls the balance between the direct no-effect sound and the effect sound. The maximum setting of "100" produces maximum effect depth. 44 4. Select and Set the Main Effect Parameters Use the PAGE [k] and [l] keys to locate the "QED EF PARAM" screen.

The four effect 1 parameters are edited via [CS1] through [CS4], while the four effect 2 parameters are edited via [CS5] through [CS8]. The name of the corresponding effect and parameter are shown on the upper display line when one of these parameters are edited. The parameters are different for each effect (refer to page 274 of the Feature Reference manual for details). 9. Realtime recording is best for parts you can play easily on the keyboard, and for passages in which you want to retain the human "feel" of naturally varying timing and other musical factors. 1.

SONG`PLAY``````Meas``Tempo`Time````(TR1) `02:InitSong````001```120``4/`4````[Tch] The SY85F2F2 can hold up to 10 different "songs" in memory at the same time. Use [CS1] to select a song number from 1 to 10. If this is the first song you've recorded, "1" is a logical choice. Optional Set the Transmit Channel For Each Track. This step is only necessary if you want to change the default track transmit channel settings: tracks 1 through 8 normally transmit on MIDI channels 1 through 8, respectively. Press [F8] to call the Track Transmit Channel display. Track`Transmit`Channel`````````````````` ```1````2````3````4````5````6````7````8` 5.

Press a function key to move the underline cursor to the MIDI channel parameter for that track, then use the corresponding control slider (e. g. [CS3] for track 3) to set the MIDI transmit channel for that track.
