Your PortaTone will give you years of playing pleasure if you follow the simple rules given below:

s Location

Do not expose the instrument to the following conditions to avoid deformation, discoloration, or more serious damage. q Direct sunlight (e.g. near a window). q High temperatures (e.g. near a heat source, outside, or in a car during the daytime). q Excessive humidity. q Excessive dust. q Strong vibration.
q Disconnect all cables before moving the instrument. q Physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping, or placing heavy objects on the instrument can result in scratches and more serious damage.

s Cleaning

q Clean the cabinet and panel with a dry soft cloth. q A slightly damp cloth may be used to remove stubborn grime and dirt. q Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner. q Avoid placing vinyl objects on top of the instrument (vinyl can stick to and discolor the surface).

s Power Supply

q Turn the power switch OFF when the instrument is not in use. q An AC adaptor, if used (the PSR-A3 runs from either batteries or an optional AC adaptor), should be unplugged from the AC outlet if the instrument is not to be used for an extended period of time. q Unplug the AC adaptor during electric storms. q Avoid plugging the AC adaptor into the same AC outlet as appliances with high power consumption, such as electric heaters or ovens. Also avoid using multi-plug adaptors since these can result in reduced sound quality, operation errors, and possibly damage.
s Electrical Interference
q This instrument contains digital circuitry and may cause interference if placed too close to radio or television receivers. If this occurs, move the instrument further away from the affected equipment.

s Data Backup

q Internal data (registration memory, user song, user pad and scale memory data) will be retained in memory even if the power switch is turned OFF as long as an AC power adaptor is connected or batteries are installed.
s Turn Power OFF When Making Connections
q To avoid damage to the instrument and other devices to which it is connected, turn the power switches of all related devices OFF prior to connecting or disconnecting MIDI cables.

Basic Display Operation

The PSR-A3 LCD panel is a large multi-function type that simultaneously displays and provides access to a number of important parameters. Basic operation of the display as well as the CURSOR, FUNCTION, MODE, and NUMBER buttons, and the meaning of the icons which appear in the display, are summarized briefly below.

The Cursor Buttons

The CURSOR buttons are used to select the various parameters which appear in the display. Depending on the selected parameter, the cursor may appear as an underline, or the selected icon or value may simply flash. Each CURSOR button moves the cursor in the corresponding direction. The [v] and [w] CURSOR buttons are also used to select functions within the function groups selected by the FUNCTION buttons in some cases.

Function Dual Voice

Description The dual voice can be changed as required while the number and name of the current dual voice appear on the top line of the display. The PSR-A3 has 162 (voice number 01~160 and 170~171) dual voices. Voice numbers 170~171 exclusively can be used as the dual voice. Sets the volume of the dual voice so you can create the optimum blend with the main keyboard voice. The volume range is from 00 (no sound) to 127 (maximum dual voice volume). Shifts the pitch of the dual voice up or down one or two octaves. 1 is down one octave, 2 is down two octaves; +1 and +2 are up one and two octaves, respectively. The original octave of the dual voice is determined by the Octave function in the OVERALL function group page 71. Sets the reverb send level for the dual voice. The reverb send level determines the amount of signals input to the reverb effect. The level range is 00 (no effect) to 127 (maximum effect). Sets the chorus send level for the dual voice. The chorus send level determines the amount of signals input to the chorus effect. The level range is 00 (no effect) to 127 (maximum effect). Positions the dual voice in the stereo sound field. The pan range is from 7 to +7". 7 is full left and +7 is full right.
If the Voice Set function is ON (page 73), the Dual Voice parameters will change automatically whenever a different voice is selected via the VOICE function. Keyboard percussion voices cannot be used as the dual voice. The selected Dual Voice parameter can be reset to its default value by simultaneously pressing the [/NO] and [+/YES] buttons. The octave of the main and dual voices can be changed via the Octave function in the OVERALL function group page 71. Negative values with D.Octave and D.Pan parameters can be entered by pressing the number buttons while holding the [/NO] button. Reverb return level and chorus return level can be changed via the RevRtnLv and ChoRtnLv functions, respectively, in the DIGITAL EFFECT function see pages 25 and 27.
