Playing the Multi Pads

Press the [MULTI PAD SELECT] button to call up the Multi Pad Bank selection display, then select the desired Bank.
Use the [1][6] buttons to select the different menus (P1P6) of Multi Pad banks, then use the [A][J] buttons to select the desired bank.
Press any of the MULTI PAD CONTROL [1] - [4] buttons to play the Multi Pad phrase.
The corresponding phrase (in this case, for Pad 1) starts playing back in its entirety as soon as the pad is pressed. To stop it, press and release the [STOP] button.
Simply tap any of the Multi Pads at any time to play back the corresponding phrase at the currently set tempo. You can even play two, three, or four Multi Pads at the same time. Pressing the pad during its playback will stop playing and begin playing from the top again.
About the color of the Multi Pads Green: Indicates that the corresponding pad contains data (phrase). Red: Indicates that the corresponding pad is playing back. Multi Pad data There are two types of Multi Pad data. Some types will play back once and stop when they reach to the end. Others will play back repeatedly until you press the [STOP] button. Stopping playback of the Multi Pads To stop all pads, press and release the [STOP] button. To stop specic pads, simultaneously hold down the [STOP] button and press the pad or pads you wish to stop.

Using Chord Match

Many of the Multi Pad phrases are melodic or chordal and you can have these phrases automatically change chords as you do with your left hand. While a style is playing back and [ACMP] is on, simply play a chord with your left hand and press any of the Multi Pads Chord Match changes the pitch to match the chords you play. You can also use this with the style stopped (with the Stop Accompaniment function). Keep in mind that some Multi Pads are not affected by Chord Match.
In this example, the phrase for Pad 2 will be transposed into F major before playing back. Try out other various chord types while playing the Multi Pads.
Calling Up Ideal Setups for Each Song Music Finder
If you want to play in a certain genre of music but dont know which Style and Voice settings would be appropriate, the convenient Music Finder function can help you out. Simply select the desired music genre from among the Music Finder Records, and the PSR-3000/1500 automatically makes all appropriate panel settings to let you play in that music style. A new record can be created by editing the currently selected one (page 109).

Preset Scale Types

EQUAL TEMPERAMENT PURE MAJOR PURE MINOR PYTHAGOREAN The pitch range of each octave is divided equally into twelve parts, with each half-step evenly spaced in pitch. This is the most commonly used tuning in music today. These tunings preserve the pure mathematical intervals of each scale, especially for triad chords (root, third, fth). You can hear this best in actual vocal harmonies such as choirs and a cappella singing. This scale was devised by the famous Greek philosopher and is created from a series of perfect fths, which are collapsed into a single octave. The 3rd in this tuning are slightly unstable, but the 4th and 5th are beautiful and suitable for some leads. This scale was created as an improvement on the Pythagorean scale, by making the major third interval more in tune. It was especially popular from the 16th century to the 18th century. Handel, among others, used this scale. This composite scale combines the Werckmeister and Kirnberger systems, which were themselves improvements on the mean-tone and Pythagorean scales. The main feature of this scale is that each key has its own unique character. The scale was used extensively during the time of Bach and Beethoven, and even now it is often used when performing period music on the harpsichord. Use these tunings when playing Arabic music.

For a general overview of MIDI and how you can effectively use it, refer to the following sections: What is MIDI?...page 197 What You Can Do With MIDI..page 200 MIDI Settings..page 201

MIDI Transmit Settings

The explanations here apply to the TRANSMIT display to be called up in step 4 of the Basic Operation on page 201. This determines which parts will be sent as MIDI data and over which MIDI channel the data will be sent.
Operation Select the part to be transmitted and the channel via which the selected part will be transmitted. You can also determine the types of data to be sent.
With the exception of the two parts below, the conguration of the parts is the same as those already explained elsewhere in this manual. UPPER The keyboard part played on the right side of the keyboard from the Split Point for the Voices (RIGHT1 and/ or 2). LOWER The keyboard part played on the left side of the keyboard from the Split Point for the Voices. This is not affected by the on/off status of the [ACMP ON/OFF] button.
Tx MONITOR The dots corresponding to each channel (1-16) ash briey whenever any data is transmitted on the channel(s).
When different parts are assigned to the same transmit channel If the same transmit channel is assigned to several different parts, the transmitted MIDI messages are merged to a single channel resulting in unexpected sounds and possible glitches in the connected MIDI device.
KEYBOARD The received note messages control the PSR-3000/ 1500s keyboard performance. EXTRA PART 1-5 There are ve parts specially reserved for receiving and playing MIDI data. Normally, these parts are not used by the instrument itself. The PSR-3000/1500 can be used as a 32-channel multi-timbral tone generator by using these ve parts in addition to the general parts (except for the microphone sound). Rx MONITOR The dots corresponding to each channel (116) ash briey whenever any data is received on the channel(s).
About the protected Songs Write-protected Songs and GS songs cannot be transmitted even if the proper Song channels 116 are set to be transmitted.

EXPERIENCE THE MUSICAL MAGIC
Ultra Realistic Voices and Styles

Mega Voice Technology

Yamahas groundbreaking Mega Voice technology captures more than the tone of the original instrument, it re-creates the behavior, so you can hear all the elements as when listening to the actual instrument. For example, the string and pick noise is part of the natural sound of a guitar, and it would sound unnatural without it. Mega Voice include all the extra characteristics of the instrument, providing a whole new level of realism. The bundled CD-ROM includes Software, which allows you to convert MIDI data on your PC so that it takes full advantage of the PSR-3000s Mega Voice capabilities.

What are Mega Voices?

To provide a more authentic and natural sound, keyboards commonly use velocity switching to dynamically change the characteristic of a voice (tone, volume level, etc.) according to how strongly or softly you play the keys. Mega voice take this concept even further by giving each velocity range (the measure of your playing strength) a completely different sound. For example, a Mega guitar voice includes the sounds of various performance techniques, such as picking, strumming and muting the strings, as well as fret noise and harmonics. In conventional instruments, different voices having those sounds would be called up via MIDI and played in combination to achieve the desired effect. With Mega voice, however, a convincing guitar part can be played with just a single voice, using specific velocity values to play the desired sounds.
Velocity 0 harmonics slide hammering muted dead note open hard open mid open soft Strumming Fret Noise The sounds of various guitar performance techniques are independently assigned to different velocity and note ranges.
