CAUTION : Even when the switch is in the STAND BY position, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the PSR-195/79 for a long time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet, and/or remove the batteries from the instrument.

Accessory Jacks

s Using Headphones For private practicing and playing without disturbing others, connect a set of stereo headphones to the rear panel PHONES/AUX OUT jack. Sound from the built-in speaker system is automatically cut off when you insert a headphone plug into this jack. s Connecting a Keyboard Amplifier or Stereo System Though the PortaTone is equipped with a builtin speaker system, you can also play it through an external amplifier/speaker system. First, make sure the PortaTone and any external devices are turned off, then connect one end of a stereo audio cable to the LINE IN or AUX IN jack(s) of the other device and the other end to the rear panel PHONES/AUX OUT jack on the PortaTone.
CAUTION : To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the external devices at the minimum setting before connecting them. Failure to observe these cautions may result in electric shock or equipment damage.
NOTE: Even though the PSR-79 does not have a SUSTAIN jack, certain voices have a natural sustain added to the sound. NOTE: Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power. Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, resulting in reversed footswitch operation.
s Using the MIDI Terminals The PortaTone also features MIDI terminals, allowing you to interface the PortaTone with other MIDI instruments and devices. (For more information, see page 41.)

MIDI instrument

s Using a Sustain Footswitch (PSR-195 only) This feature on the PSR-195 lets you use an optional footswitch (Yamaha FC4 or FC5) to sustain the sound of the keyboard voice. This is used in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano press and hold down the footswitch as you play the keyboard to sustain the sound.

Music Stand

Insert the bottom edge of the included music stand into the slot located at the top rear of the PortaTone control panel.

NOTE: For a few specific chords (such as BM7), not all notes may be shown in the notation section of the display. This is due to space limitations in the display.

Measure/Tempo and beat

This shows either the current measure (when the Song mode is selected) or the current Tempo value (when the Style mode is selected). The hand clap icons also flash to indicate the beats in the measure during song or style playback. (See page 22.)
Overall function bar indicator
The PortaTone has seven Overall functions or controls. The currently selected function is indicated by a dark bar that appears next to its name (printed on the panel).
When a song is being played back, this indicates the current chord root and type. It also indicates chords played in the ACMP section of the keyboard when the Style mode and auto accompaniment are on.

Notation Keyboard

These two portions of the display conveniently indicate notes currently played on the keyboard. When a song is being played back, they show the single notes of the melody in succession. When the Style mode and auto accompaniment are active, the display also shows the specific
Song/Voice/Style name and number This portion of the display indicates the name and number of the currently selected song, voice, or style. When other functions of the PortaTone are selected, it briefly shows the function name and current value or setting.
This convenient function lets you automatically exit from any other mode or function and instantly call up the Grand Piano voice.

There are three ways to select voices: 1) directly entering the voice number with the numeric keypad, 2) using the +/- keys to step up and down through the voices, or 3) pressing the VOICE button to advance through the voice numbers.

Using the +/- keys

Press the + key to select the next voice number, and press the - key to select the previous voice. Holding down either key continuously scrolls up or down through the numbers. The +/- keys have a wrap around feature. For example, pressing the + key from the voice 100 returns to voice 1.

Using the numeric keypad

Enter the digits of the voice number as printed on the panel. For example, to select voice #42, press 4 on the numeric keypad, then 2.

Using the VOICE button

Press the VOICE button to select the next voice number. (This functions exactly the same as the + button.)
NOTE: Each voice is automatically called up with the most suitable octave range setting. Thus, playing middle C with one voice may sound higher or lower than another voice at the same key.

Repeat

Set point B (the end point of the section).
Press the button once again, at the ending point of the section to be repeated. The selected phrase repeats indefinitely until stopped.
Pause or stop playback as needed.
Use the Pause ( ) and START/STOP (>/s) buttons. Stopping playback does not cancel the set A/B points or the A/B Repeat function.
Turn off the A/B Repeat function.
Press the button. This can be done either when the song is stopped or during playback.
HINT: You can also set the A/B Repeat function while the song is stopped. Simply use the r/f buttons to select the measures for the A and B points in the song, then start playback. While the song is playing back (but before setting the A/B points), try slowing down the Tempo (page 21). This makes it easier to accurately set the A and B points. Slowing down the Tempo also makes it easier to practice the parts you want to learn. To set the A point at the beginning of a song, press the button before starting song playback.
NOTE: Selecting a different song number (or changing to the Style mode) automatically cancels the A/B Repeat function.

Melody Guide

The PortaTone has a special Melody Guide function that makes practice and learning of the 100 songs both fun and easy. During song playback, the PortaTone shows the notes of the melody in the music staves and the keyboard diagram in the display indicating which notes you should play and when you should play them. The Melody Guide function even lets you practice at your own pace by automatically pausing playback until you play the correct notes. To further help you play the correct melody notes, scores for all songs have been provided. There are two different types of Melody Guide operations: Waiting (auto pause playback) and Minus One (muted melody). These can be turned on either before starting a song, or while a song is playing.

Select a song.

With the Song mode active, select the desired song. (See page 20.)
Set the Melody Guide function.
Press the MELODY GUIDE button repeatedly until the desired setting is shown in the display.

Waiting

Settings:
Waiting When set to Waiting, the PortaTone waits for you to play the correct melody notes, automatically pausing song playback until each note is played. This allows you to practice the melody at your own pace. The next note to be played is indicated in the display (in the music staves and the keyboard diagram). MinusOne Minus One, as its name implies, mutes the melody part of the song, allowing you to play that part yourself. Song playback continues without pausing, so you can play the melody part naturally in time with the music. The next

note to be played is indicated in the display (in the music staves and the keyboard diagram).

MinusOne

Off This turns the Melody Guide function off. The selected song (and its melody part) plays back normally. NOTE: Melody Guide is turned off automatically when a different song number is selected.
Start playback of the song, and play the melody from the keyboard.
Start playback in the normal fashion (page 20) and play the melody along with the song. You can also change the Melody Guide setting while the song is playing back by simply pressing the MELODY GUIDE button. To stop the song, press the START/STOP (>/s) button.

Voice Change

The Voice Change function allows you to set whether or not the keyboard voice changes automatically with the melody voice of the song. It is especially useful when used with Melody Guide, since it determines what voice sounds the melody when you play the keyboard. When set to Off, you can select from the 100 voices of the PortaTone for playing the melody from the keyboard.
Change the Voice Change setting.
Press the VOICE CHANGE button to turn Voice Change on or off.
Change the Voice directly.
In the VC On condition, you can also directly make your own voice selections by using the +/- keys or the numeric keypad. The programmed voice of the song and the keyboard voice both change to the new selection. Settings:
VC On When Voice Change is set to On, the voice played from the keyboard changes automatically with the melody voice of the song. Each song is programmed with an initial voice, and many have voice changes within the song itself. Setting this to on ensures that the voice played from the keyboard remains the same as the voice (or voices) programmed to the song. VC Off This turns the Voice Change function off. Use this setting when you wish to select a voice (or voices) yourself, independent from the selections programmed to the song. NOTE: The songs of the PortaTone often use special voices that are not selectable from the panel controls. These voices are indicated by the letters SG in the display.

Selecting and Playing Styles The Style Mode
The Style mode provides dynamic rhythm/accompaniment patterns as well as voice settings appropriate for each pattern for various popular music styles.
A total of 100 different styles are available, in several different categories. Each style is made up of separate sections Intro, Main A and B (with 4 Fill-ins), and Ending letting you call up different accompaniment patterns as you perform. The auto accompaniment features that are built into the rhythms add the excitement of instrumental backing to your performance, letting you control the accompaniment by the chords you play. Auto accompaniment effectively splits the keyboard into two sections: The upper is used for playing a melody line, and the lower (labeled ACMP below the keyboard) is for the auto accompaniment function.

Single Finger Chords

Chords that can be produced in Single Finger operation are major, minor, seventh and minor seventh. The illustration below shows how to produce the four chord types. (The key of C is used here as an example; other keys follow the same rules. For example, Bb7 is played as Bb and A.)
To play a major chord: Press the root note of the chord.
To play a minor chord: Press the root note together with any black key to the left of it.
To play a seventh chord: Press the root note together with any white key to the left of it.
To play a minor seventh chord: Press the root note together with any white and black keys to the left of it (three keys altogether).

Fingered Chords

Using the key of C as an example, the chart below shows the types of chords that can be recognized in the Fingered mode. s Fingered Chords in the Key of C
NOTE: If the chord is inverted (i.e., C-E-G is played as G-C-E), the PortaTone will still recognize it as a C chord. The chord recognition system also has the following rules and exceptions: Minor 6th chords are recognized only in root position, however; all other inversions are interpreted as minor 7th/ flatted 5th. If augmented and diminished 7th chords are inverted, the lowest note will be recognized as the root. 7th flatted 5th chords may be played with the lowest note as the root or the flatted 7th. Augmented 7th and diminished 7th chords are interpreted as simple augmented and diminished. NOTE: The following chords are not recognized : B minor 6, Bb minor 6, and B augmented.

Caug (7aug)

Cdim (dim7)

Csus 4

C 7 b5

Cm 7 b5

C 7 sus4
Notes enclosed in parentheses are optional; the chords will be recognized without them.

What is a Chord?

The simple answer: Three or more notes played simultaneously is a chord. (Two notes played together is an interval an interval being the distance between two different notes. This is also referred to as a harmony.) Depending on the intervals between the three or more notes, a chord can sound beautiful or muddy and dissonant. The organization of notes in the example at left a triad chord produces a pleasant, harmonious sound. Triads are made up of three notes and are the most basic and common chords in most music.
In this triad, the lowest note is the root. The root (also called the tonic) is the most important note in the chord, because it anchors the sound harmonically by determining its key and forms the basis for how we hear the other notes of the chord. The second note of this chord is four semitones higher than the first, and the third is three semitones higher than the second. Keeping our root note fixed and changing these notes by a semitone up or down (sharp or flat), we can create four different chords.

Diminished chord

One Touch Setting (OTS)
The One Touch Setting function automatically selects an appropriate voice for playing with the style you select. In other words, when One Touch Setting is on, the voice automatically changes when you change the style.

Select a style.

Select one of the styles, as described in steps on page 28.
Turn on the One Touch Setting function.
Press the OTS button so that OTS On appears briefly in the display.

IN B OTS

OTS On
When One Touch Setting is on, the following settings are automatically changed/made:
Main voice (set to match the selected style) Multi Pad bank Tempo Accompaniment Volume Accompaniment On Sync-Start On (set to standby when rhythm is stopped)

Play the style.

Since Sync-Start is automatically set to On when One Touch Setting is on, playing a key in the ACMP section of the keyboard starts the style. To turn One Touch Setting off, press the button again (so that OTS Off appears in the display).

Chord Guide

The Chord Guide functions of the PortaTone provide powerful, easy-to-use tools for learning chords and chord relationships. Chord Guide features two different types of operation: Smart and Dictionary.
The Smart type allows you to set the basic key for the chord accompaniment. Once this is set, you can simply press single keys in the scale and have harmonically appropriate chords played automatically. For example, with the key set to C, playing an D will result in an D minor chord (rather than a harmonically inappropriate D major). The Smart type is not only a convenient feature for easily playing various chord progressions in a specified key, its also an excellent learning tool to find out how chords relate to each other harmonically in a given key.
Select one of the styles, as described in steps 1 - 2 on page 28.
Select the Smart Chord Guide.
Press the CHORD GUIDE button so that Smart appears briefly in the display.
NOTE: The accompaniment is turned on automatically when Smart is selected.

Set the desired key.

Use the +/- buttons on the numeric keypad to step through the available keys, or use the numeric keypad to directly enter the number corresponding to the desired key (see chart below).

Individual notes of chord (keyboard)

Play the chord.

Play the chord (as indicated in the display) in the ACMP section of the keyboard. The chord name flashes when the correct notes are held down. (Inversions for many of the chords are also recognized.)

Multi Pads

These convenient pads let you instantly trigger various musical and rhythmic phrases as you play the PortaTone. There are a total of 40 different sounds or phrases (20 banks, with two pad sounds for each bank). The phrases play back at the same speed as the Tempo setting, and they also change harmonically along with the accompaniment chords (both in the Style and Song modes).
Select the Pad function in the Overall menu.
Press one of the OVERALL s/t buttons, repeatedly if necessary, until MULTI PAD is selected in the display.

About MIDI
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a worldwide standard that is built into many electronic musical instruments and other digital music related devices, allowing them to be connected and communicate with each other. For two MIDI instruments to communicate, they must be connected by MIDI cables. In a basic example, the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT terminals of the PortaTone could be connected to the MIDI OUT and MIDI IN terminals of a sequencer, allowing you to record and play back performance data from the PortaTone. The instruments communicate with each other by sending messages or MIDI data. The sending instrument usually assigns the data to one of sixteen MIDI channels, then transmits it over the MIDI cable. The cable itself, however, is not divided up into sixteen channels. Just as with a television set that receives programs on different channels, it is up to the receiving instrument to tune into the proper MIDI channel. If the sending and receiving channels on the respective instruments do not match, the receiving instrument may not understand or respond to the one sending.

performance data played on the PortaTone keyboard. Before actually recording to the sequencer, press the ACMP button once or twice to make sure that the current settings are sent.
Connect the MIDI OUT of the PortaTone to the MIDI IN of the QY70.
Connect the MIDI IN of the PortaTone to the MIDI OUT of the QY-70.
NOTE: On the PortaTone, the following channels (eight total) are enabled for MIDI reception: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10. The MIDI transmit channels are fixed to the following data: Ch. 1 : Keyboard, harmony Ch. 2 : Bass Ch. 3 : Chord Ch. 4 - 7 : Other Ch. 10 : Rhythm Parts that have been recorded using the PortaTone should also be played back from the PortaTone. Data may not play back as expected when using other sound sources (such as the internal sounds of the QY-70). Also, a connected sound source may sound at a different octave from that originally played on the PortaTone. MIDI data cannot be transmitted during song playback. Avoid using MIDI cables 15 meters or longer, since doing so can result in MIDI errors.

How Can MIDI be Used?

In the simple, yet powerful MIDI application example below, the Yamaha QY-70 Music Sequencer is used to record and play back

Troubleshooting

Problem When the PortaTone is turned on or off, a popping sound is temporarily produced. The sound of the voices or rhythms seems unusual or strange. There is no sound even when the keyboard is played or when a Song is being played back. When one of the PIANO styles is selected and started, the rhythm cannot be heard. Not all notes are heard when playing a number of notes simultaneously. Possible Cause and Solution This is normal and indicates that the PortaTone is receiving electrical power.
The battery power is too low. Replace the batteries. (See page 9.) Check that nothing is connected to the PHONES/AUX OUT jack on the rear panel. When a set of headphones is plugged into this jack, no sound is output. This is normal; the accompaniment of the style can only be heard when accompaniment is set to ON and keys are played in the ACMP section of the keyboard. Too many keys are pressed at the same time. The PortaTone is polyphonic up to a maximum of 16 notes. The PortaTone is polyphonic up to a maximum of 16 notes. If a style or song is playing back at the same time a Pad is played, some notes/sounds of the Pad may be omitted (or stolen) from the accompaniment or song. The AWM tone generation method uses multiple recordings (samples) of an instrument across the range of the keyboard; thus, the actual sound of the voice may be slightly different from note to note. Check that Melody Guide is turned off.
