PLEASE KEEP THIS MANUAL

AC power adaptor AC outlet
Use only manganese or alkaline batteries for this instrument. Other types of batteries (including rechargeable batteries) may exhibit a sudden drop in power when the batteries are low, possibly resulting in a loss of ash memory data. Be sure to install the batteries in the same direction, maintaining the correct polarity (as shown). Incorrect battery installation may result in heat, re and/or leaking of corrosive chemicals. When the batteries run down, replace them with a complete set of six new batteries. NEVER mix old and new batteries. Do not use different kinds of batteries (e.g. alkaline and manganese) at the same time. If the instrument will not be used for an extended period of time, remove the batteries to prevent possible uid leakage. Please use the power adaptor when transferring data to ash memory. Batteries (including rechargeable types) can be drained rapidly by this type of operation. If the batteries do become drained during a data transfer, both the data being transferred and the data currently in the transfer destination will be lost.

Using Batteries

Open the battery compartment cover located on the instruments bottom panel. Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow the polarity markings on the inside of the compartment. Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it locks rmly in place.
NOTE Connecting the AC power adaptor automatically supplies power from the adaptor and overrides battery power, even when batteries are installed.
Make all necessary connections below BEFORE turning the power on.
Connecting Headphones (PHONES/OUTPUT Jack)
Connecting to a Computer (USB Terminal)
The PSR-E413 speakers are automatically shut off when a plug is inserted into this jack. The PHONES/OUTPUT jack also functions as an external output. You can connect the PHONES/OUTPUT jack to a keyboard amplier, stereo system, mixer, tape recorder, or other line-level audio device to send the instruments output signal to that device.
Avoid listening with the headphones at high volume for long periods of time; doing so may not only result in ear fatigue, it may be damaging to your hearing.

ck Gui ui Q

Creating Arpeggios
The arpeggio function lets you create arpeggios (broken chords) by simply playing the required notes on the keyboard. For example, you could play the notes of a triadthe root, third, and fthand the arpeggio function will automatically create a variety of interesting arpeggiotype phrases. By changing the arpeggio type and the notes you play it is possible to create a wide range of patterns and phrases that can be used for music production as well as performance.
Press the ARPEGGIO [ON/OFF] button to turn the arpeggio function on.
The indicator lights when the Arpeggio function is on.
Voices and the Arpeggio Function This instrument lets you select a variety of voices that you can play via the keyboard. When you select a voice number between 129 and 148 the arpeggio function will automatically be engaged so you can start playing arpeggios immediately. The arpeggio function will automatically be turned off when you select any other voice. If you want to use voices 129148 for normal performance without the arpeggio function, press the ARPEGGIO [ON/OFF] button to turn the arpeggio function off after selecting the voice.

Knob B Filter Resonance Chorus Send Level Release Time Filter Resonance No Effect
z Filter x Effect c EG v Style Filter b Style Tempo
The assignable knob effects are pre-programmed in the pairs listed above. It is not possible to assign different effect combinations.

z Filter

Filter effects shape sound by allowing only a specied range of frequencies to pass and/or by producing a resonance peak at the lters cutoff frequency. Filter effects can be used to create a range of synthesizer-like sounds.
* Filter effects can sometimes cause distortion in the bass frequencies.
Some hints for using the lter effects are provided on page 22.
Filter Cutoff Filter Resonance
Knob A adjusts the lters cutoff frequency, and therefore the brightness of the sound.

Level Cutoff Frequency

Frequency Frequencies in this range are passed. Frequencies in this range are cut off.
Knob B adjusts the amount of resonance applied at the lters cutoff frequency. Increasing the resonance emphasizes the frequencies at the cutoff frequency, and thus strengthens the perceived effect of the lter.

Level Resonance

Frequency

x Effect

Reverb reproduces the acoustic ambience of a concert hall or club, while chorus produces a layered multi-instrument effect.
Reverb Send Level Chorus Send Level
Knob A adjusts the depth of the reverb effect, and Knob B adjusts the depth of the chorus effect.
c EG (Envelope Generator)
Envelope Generator effects determine how the level of the sound varies over time. You can make the attack faster for a more percussive sound or slower for a violin-like sound, for example. Or you can lengthen or shorten the sustain to most ideally match the music.

Attack Time Release Time

Knob A adjusts attack time (the amount of time it takes the sound to reach maximum level when a key is played). Knob B adjusts release time (the amount of time it takes for the sound to decay to silence after a key is released).

v Style Filter
In this case the knobs apply the lter effect to the style being played. Knob A and Knob B have the same functions as for z Filter described on the preceding page.

b Style Tempo

Tempo No Effect
Knob A adjusts the tempo of the style and arpeggios. Rotating the knob clockwise increases the tempo while rotating it counterclockwise decreases the tempo. The knobs center position produces the initial default tempo.

Using the Knobs

Select the voice you want to play on the keyboard.

SquareLd

The name of the currently selected voice will appear in the display when you press the [VOICE] button. Use the dial to select the desired voice. For this example we want to use a synth-lead type voice, so select 97 SquareLd (Square-wave Lead).
Press the [ASSIGN] button as many times as necessary to select z FILTER (z will appear in the display).

z appears here.

Knob A can now be used to adjust the lter cutoff frequency, and Knob B can be used to adjust the resonance.
Rotate Knob B to its maximum setting (all the way to the right).
Rotating the knob to the right while the volume is set to a high level can result in distortion. If this occurs, reduce the volume level.
Play with the right hand while operating Knob A with the left hand.
If you select a different keyboard voice the knobs will be reset and the ideal settings for the selected voice will be automatically recalled. In the same way, if the v STYLE FILTER effect is selected, the knobs will be reset if a different style is selected. If you create an original setting you like, it might be a good idea to save it in the instruments Registration Memory (page 80) so you can recall the same settings again at any time. You can also record performances using original sounds youve created (page 52). The chart below lists some interesting ways to use the various effects that can be assigned to the knobs.
Changing the knob settings does not immediately change the sound. Newly assigned effects will only change the sound when the knobs are rst operated after the new effect has been selected.
Some Ideas for Using the Knobs
Number/Effect Try This Select a synth-type lead or pad voice (page 106). Turn Knob B all the way up and operate Knob A while playing for some spacey, oating 1980s effects. Select a voice that sounds as though it already has reverb and chorus effects applied, and turn Knob A and Knob B all the way down to hear the direct sound of the voice. You can then turn the Knob A and Knob B settings up to add extra impact and richness to the voice. Select a piano voice, and turn Knob B all the way up and Knob A to about the 3 oclock position. This should give you a majestic, organ-like sound. The attack time is quite long so play the keys and hold them to let the sound come in fully. Ideal for slow pieces. Select style 39, Euro Trance. Turn accompaniment on and start style playback (page 34). Set Knob B to about 3 oclock, and Knob A to about 8 oclock. The overall sound of the style should be a bit mufed, with the drums emphasized for solid rhythmic impact. Play a style and/or arpeggio (page 14) and use Knob A to adjust the tempo.

There is no sound even when the keyboard is played or when a song or style is being played back.
The batteries are low or dead. Replace all six batteries with completely new ones, or use the optional AC adaptor.
Is External Clock set to ON? Make sure External Clock is set to OFF; refer to External Clock on page 88. Make sure that the Style Volume (page 84) is set to an appropriate level.
The style does not sound properly.
Is the split point set at an appropriate key for the cords you are playing? Set the split point at an appropriate key (page 72). Is the ACMP ON indicator showing in the display? If it is not showing press the [ACMP ON/OFF] button so that it does show. This is not a malfunction. Style number 141 and style numbers 153165 (Pianist) have no rhythm parts, so no rhythm will play. The other parts will begin playing when you play a chord in the accompaniment range of the keyboard if style playback is turned on. The instrument is polyphonic up to a maximum of 32 notes. If the Dual voice or Split voice is being used and a style or song is playing back at the same time, some notes/sounds may be omitted (or stolen) from the accompaniment or song. You have exceeded 32 simultaneous notes, which is the maximum polyphony (the maximum number of notes that can be played simultaneously) of the instrument. The instrument will play normally as long as no more than 32 notes are being played at once, both on the keyboard and by any automatic playback functions. The polarity of the footswitch is reversed. Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power. This is normal.

The Voice List includes MIDI program change numbers for each voice. Use these program change numbers when playing the instrument via MIDI from an external device. Program Numbers 001 to 128 directly relate to MIDI Program Change Numbers 000 to 127. That is, Program Numbers and Program Change Numbers differ by a value of 1. Remember to take this into consideration. Some voices may sound continuously or have a long decay after the notes have been released while the sustain pedal (footswitch) is held.
