TAKING CARE OF YOUR PERSONAL ELECTRONIC PIANO
Your Personal Electronic Piano is a fine musical instrument, and deserves the most careful treatment. Observe the following points and your Personal Electronic Piano will sound and look great for many years. 1. Never open the case and touch or tamper with the internal circuitry. 2. Always turn the POWER switch OFF after use, and cover the keyboard with the supplied cover. 3. Clean the cabinet and keys of your Personal Electronic Piano only with a clean, slightly damp cloth. A neutral cleanser may be used if desired. Never use abrasive cleansers, waxes, solvents or chemical dust cloths since these can dull or damage the finish. 4. Never place any vinyl products on your Personal Electronic Piano. Contact with vinyl can cause irreversible damage to the finish. 5. Install your Personal Electronic Piano in a place that is away from direct sunlight, excessive humidity or heat. 6. Never apply excessive force to the controls, connectors or other parts of your Personal Electronic Piano, and avoid scratching or bumping it with hard objects. 7. Do not leave heavy objects on the keyboard for an extended length of time. 8. Never spill water, beverages or other liquids on the keyboard or any other part of the Personal Electronic Piano. 9. The YPP-50 contains digital circuitry and may cause interference if placed too close to radio receivers, television sets or similar radio-frequency reception equipment. If such a problem occurs, move the YPP-50 further away from the affected equipment. 10. IMPORTANT!: Check your power supply! Make sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the voltage specified on the name plate on the bottom panel. In some areas a voltage selector may be provided on the rear panel of the main unit. Make sure that the voltage selector is set for the voltage in your area. l Name Plate Location The YPP-50 nameplate is located on the bottom panel.
THE CONTROLS AND CONNECTORS: BASIC OPERATION
POWER Switch Press the POWER switch once to turn the power ON, a second time to turn the power OFF. When the power is initially turned ON, the PIANO voice selector LED will light. MASTER VOLUME Control The MASTER VOLUME control adjusts the volume (level) of sound produced by the Personal Electronic Piano. The MASTER VOLUME control also adjusts headphone volume when a pair of headphones is plugged into the HEADPHONE jack MIDI/TRANSPOSE Button The MIDI/TRANSPOSE button allows access to the Personal Electronic Pianos TRANSPOSE function (to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down) and MIDI functions. For details refer to the TRANSPOSITION and MIDI FUNCTIONS sections on pages 8 and 10, respectively.

METRONOME Button Press the METRONOME button to start the YPP-50s builtin metronome. The metronome will sound at either the initial tempo of 120 beats per minute, or a tempo set using the TEMPO and buttons, described below. The METRONOME button LED will flash on the first beat of each measure. Press the METRONOME button a second time to stop the metronome sound. l Metronome Volume: The volume of the metronome sound can be independently adjusted in five steps (normal volume plus two steps up and two down) by pressing the TEMPO or button while holding down the METRONOME button. The button increases the volume while the button decreases the volume. Normal volume can be restored by holding the METRONOME button and pressing both the TEMPO and buttons simultaneously.
Note: The metronome is also related to operation of the YPP-50 Performance Memory. This relationship will be described in the PERFORMANCE MEMORY section on page 9.
TEMPO and Buttons The TEMPO and buttons are mainly used to adjust the tempo of the YPP-50 metronome. The tempo can be adjusted from 32 to 280 beats per minute in the following steps:
When the power is initially switched ON, the tempo is automatically set to 120. Each brief press on the or button increases or decreases the tempo by one step, respectively. Holding the or button down causes continuous incrementing or decrementing of the tempo value. The initial tempo of 120 can be restored at any time by pressing the TEMPO and buttons simultaneously.
Note: The TEMPO and buttons are also used for transposition and metronome volume control-see METRONOME Button above, and TRANSPOSITION on page 8 for details.
Voice Selectors The YPP-50 has eight voice selectors. Simply press any of the voice selectors to select the corresponding voice. The LED indicator above the voice selector will light to indicate which voice is currently selected. l The Bass Split Mode: The YPP-50 Bass Split Mode allows the BASS voice to be played on all keys to the left of and including the F# 2 key, and any other voice to played on all keys to the right of the F # 2 key. To activate the Bass Split mode and select the right-hand voice, hold down the BASS voice selector and press the voice selector corresponding to the desired right-hand voice, then release both voice selectors. Both the BASS LED and the LED of the selected right-hand voice will light. Please note that the damper pedal does not affect the bass voice in the Bass Split mode. The Bass Split mode can be disengaged and the normal voice mode restored by simply pressing any single voice selector.

Note: The PIANO voice is automatically selected whenever the POWER switch is initially turned ON.
OPTIONAL IN L/R and OUT L/R Jacks These jacks are intended primarily for use with Yamaha EMseries Expander Modules such as the EME-1 Reverb Box, EMT-1 FM Sound Box, EMT-10 AWM Sound Box and EMR-1 Drum Box. In the case of the EME-1 Reverb Box, for example, the OPTIONAL OUT jacks connect to the EME-1 LINE IN jacks, and the EME-1 LINE OUT jacks connect back to the Personal Electronic Piano OPTIONAL IN jacks. This allows application of a range of high-quality digital effects, including reverb and echo, to the Personal Electronic Piano sound. Refer to the EM-series Expander Module device owners manual for connection details. DAMPER Jack The supplied damper pedal (Yamaha FC-5) should be plugged in here. The damper pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the damper pedal is pressed notes played have a long sustain. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes. MIDI IN and OUT Connectors The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from anexternal MIDI device (such as the EMQ-1 Memory Box) which can be used to control the Personal Electronic Piano. The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI data generated by the Personal Electronic Piano (e.g. note and velocity data produced by playing the Personal Electronic Piano keyboard). More details on MIDI are given in MIDI FUNCTIONS on page 10.
PERFORMANCE MEMORY REC and PLAY Buttons These buttons activate the YPP-50 Performance Memory record and playback functions. Operation of the Performance Memory is described in detail on page 9. DEMO Button Press the DEMO button to hear the YPP-50s pre-programmed demonstration. Further details are given on page 8. HEADPHONE Jack A standard pair of stereo headphones can be plugged in here for private practice or late-night playing. The internal speaker system is automatically shut off when a pair of headphones is plugged into the HEADPHONE jack.

ENJOY THE DEMONSTRATION

To give you an idea of the YPP-50s sophisticated capabilities, it is programmed with a demonstration sequence which plays automatically while demonstrating some of the instruments voices. Short segments of the following pieces are included: l 24 Preludes No. 15 in D flat major. Raindrop Op.28-15 by Chopin (PIANO voice). l The Harmonious Blacksmith by Hndel (HARPSI voice). l Arabesque by Debussy (PIANO voice). l Fugue in G minor by Bach (P.ORGAN voice). 1. Press the POWER switch to turn the instrument ON. The PIANO voice selector LED will light when the power is ON.

2. Initially set the MASTER VOLUME control about three quarters of the way towards the MAX setting. Then, when you start playing, adjust the VOLUME control for the most comfortable listening level.
3. Select the desired voice by pressing one of the voice selectors.
4. Play. 2. Slide the MASTER VOLUME control to a position about three quarters of the way towards the MAX setting. You can set this control for the most comfortable volume level after playback begins.
Note: The Personal Electronic Piano has 8-note polyphony which means you can play up to 8 notes at once. If you activate the Bass Split mode, up to two notes can be played on the lower (bass) section of the keyboard and up to six notes can be played on the upper fright-hand) section (see Voice Selectors- The Bass Split Mode on page 7). The Metronome also uses one note, so up to seven notes can be played on the keyboard while the metronome is running (the metronome uses one note of the righthand keyboard section when the Bass Split mode is active). The Personal Electronic Piano also offers keyboard touch response, so the volume and timbre of notes played can be controlled according to how hard you play the keys. The amount of variation available depends on the selected voice.
3. The demonstration music will begin playing as soon as you press the DEMO button. The demonstration will play continuously, providing samples of different voices, until the DEMO button is pressed a second time.

TRANSPOSITION

The Personal Electronic Pianos TRANSPOSE function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of six semitones. Transposing the pitch of the Personal Electronic Piano keyboard makes it easier to play in difficult key signatures, and you can simply match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instrumentalist. The MIDI/TRANSPOSE button and TEMPO and buttons are used for transposition. 1. Press and hold the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button. 2. Press the TEMPO or button as many times as necessary to produce the desired degree of transposition. Each time the TEMPO o r button is pressed the pitch of the keyboard is transposed by one semitone in the specified direction (i.e. up or down). Pitch can be transposed up or down by a maximum of six semitones.* 3. Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.
A different voice or tempo can be selected at any time while the demonstration is playing (refer to the appropriate sections of this manual for instructions). Voice changes, however, will only remain in effect until the next automatic voice change.

PLAYING THE PERSONAL ELECTRONIC PIANO
After making sure that the Personal Electronic Pianos AC plug is properly inserted into a convenient AC wall outlet: 1. Press the POWER switch located to the left of the keyboard to turn the power ON. When the power is turned ON, the PIANO voice selector LED will light (the PIANO voice is automatically selected whenever the power is turned ON).
* Pressing both the TEMPO and buttons simultaneously while the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button is held produces normal keyboard pitch.

PITCH CONTROL

Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Personal Electronic Piano over a 50-cent range in approximately 3-cent intervals. A hundred cents equals one semitone, so the tuning range provided allows fine tuning of overall pitch over a range of approximately a semitone. Pitch control is useful for tuning the Personal Electronic Piano to match other instruments or recorded music. Tuning Up 1. To tune up (raise pitch), hold the E0 and F0 keys simultaneously. 2. Press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range is pressed the pitch is increased by approximately 3 cents, up to a maximum of 50 cents above standard pitch. 3. Release the E0 and F0 keys. Tuning Down I. To tune down (lower pitch), hold the E0 and F #0 keys simultaneously. 2. Press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range is pressed the pitch is decreased by approximately 3 cents, up to a maximum of 50 cents below standard pitch. 3. Release the E0 and F# 0 keys. To Restore Standard Pitch* 1. To restore standard pitch (A3 = 440 Hz), hold the E 0, F0 and F# 0 Tkeys simultaneously. 2. Press any key between C3 and B3. 3. Release the E0, F0 and F# 0 keys.
* Standard pitch (A 3 = 440 Hz) is automatically set whenever the POWER switch is initially turned ON.
Note: Recording can not be activatedif the YPP-60 Multi-Timbre Mode is engaged (see The Multi-Timbre Mode in the MIDI FUNCTIONS section of this manual-page 101.

Recording

1. Set the Record Ready Mode Press the PERFORMANCE MEMORY REC button. This engages the record ready mode: the REC LED will light and the metronome will sound at the currently selected tempo.
2. Set the Tempo Before actually beginning to record, you should select a tempo that will be easy to record at (using the TEMPO and/or buttons). If you dont want to hear the metronome while recording, press the METRONOME button at this stage the metronome sound will stop but the METRONOME LED will continue flashing at the selected tempo. 3. Start Recording Recording will begin automatically as soon as you begin playing. 4. Stop Recording Press the REC button a second time to stop recording. It is also possible to stop recording by pressing the PLAY button. Recording will stop automatically if you exceed the Performance Memory note capacity.

Whenever you record using the Performance Memory, any previously recorded material will be erased. The Performance Memory can be erased deliberately as follows: press the PERFORMANCE MEMORY REC button while holding down the E 0 and F0 keys (the two lowest white keys on the keyboard), release the button and keys, and then press the PERFORMANCE MEMORY REC button one more time to exit the record mode.

Playback

THE PERFORMANCE MEMORY
The YPP-50 Performance Memory functions as a digital recorder that allows you to record and play back anything you play on the keyboard. You can simply enjoy listening to playback of your performance, or play along with it on the keyboard. You can record using any single voice, or using the Bass Split mode for a combination of left-hand bass and right-hand chords or melody lines.
1. Press the PLAY Button Playback of the Performance Memory recording begins as soon as you press the PERFORMANCE MEMORY PLAY button (the PLAY button LED will also light).
The Performance Memory records the following data: notes played, damper pedal operations, voice selection, bass split mode, the initial tempo and tempo changes made during the recording. Up to approximately 1300 notes can be recorded in the Performance Memory. This number varies, however, according to damper-pedal usage and other factors. Material recorded using the Performance Memory will be retained in the YPP-50 memory for approximately one week even the power is left OFF the entire time. To keep the recorded performance in memory for longer periods, make sure that the YPP-50 power is turned ON briefly at least once a week.
2. Play Along if You Like Play along on the YPP-50 keyboard if you like. Please note, however, that the YPP-50s eight-note polyphony limitation still applies. In other words, the total number of notes being played back by the Performance Memory and those played on the keyboard cannot exceed eight at any instant. 3. Stop Playback Playback will stop automatically when the end of the recording is reached. You can also stop playback at any time by pressing the PLAY or REC button. Playback will also stop if the DEMO button is pressed or if a MIDI STOP message is received via the MIDI IN connector.

MIDI FUNCTIONS

A Brief Introduction to MIDI
MIDI, the Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a worldstandard communication interface that allows MIDI-compatible musical instruments and equipment to share musical information and control one another. This makes it possible to create systems of MIDI instruments and equipment that offer far greater versatility and control than is available with isolated instruments. For example, most MIDI keyboards (including the Personal Electronic Piano, of course) transmit note and velocity (touch response) information via the MIDI OUT connector whenever a note is played on the keyboard. If the MIDI OUT connector is connected to the MIDI IN connector of a second keyboard (synthesizer, etc.) or a tone generator such as the Yamaha EMT-1 FM Sound Box (essentially a synthesizer with no keyboard), the second keyboard or tone generator will respond precisely to notes played on the original transmitting keyboard. The result is that you can effectively play two instruments at once, providing thick multi-instrument sounds.

The examples given above really only scratch the surface. MIDI can do much, much more. The YPP-50 offers a number of MIDI functions that allow it to be used in fairly sophisticated MIDI systems.
Note: Always use a high-quality MIDI cable to connect MIDI OUT to MIDI IN terminals. Never use MIDI cables longer than about 15 meters, since cables longer than this can pick up noise which can cause data errors.
MIDI Messages Transmitted & Received by the Personal Electronic Piano ___
The MIDI information (messages) transmitted and received by the YPP-50 Personal Electronic Piano are as follows: Note and Velocity Data This information tells the receiving keyboard or tone generator to play a certain note (specified by the MIDI note number) at a certain dynamic level (specified by the MIDI velocity value). Note and velocity data is transmitted by the Personal Electronic Piano whenever a key is pressed, and the Personal Electronic Pianos internal AWM tone generator will play the corresponding note(s) whenever note and velocity data is received from an external MID1 device.
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and receiving equipment must be matched for proper data transfer. An OMNI receive mode is also available, which allows reception on all 16 MlDI channels. In the OMNI mode it is not necessary to match the receive channel of the receiving device to the the transmit channel of the transmitting device (except when receiving mode messages).
Setting the Personal Electronic Piano MIDI Channels 1. Press and hold the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button. 2. Press the key on the keyboard corresponding to the desired MIDI transmit or receive channel.* 3. Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.
* Keys C 1 through D#2 on the keyboard are used to set the MIDI transmit channel, and keys C3 through D# 4 are used to turn the OMNI mode OFF and set the MIDI receive channel as shown in the illustration below. The E 4 key sets the OMNI receive mode and basic receive channel 1.
Turning Local Control ON or OFF 1. Hold down the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button. 2. Press the PIANO voice selector. If the PIANO LED is lit when the PIANO voice selector is pressed; you have turned local control OFF. If the PIANO LED is not lit when the PIANO voice selector is pressed, you have turned local control ON. 3. Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

Program Change ON/OFF

Normally the Personal Electronic Piano will respond to MIDI program change numbers received from an external keyboard or other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly numbered Personal Electronic Piano voice to be selected. The Personal Electronic Piano will normally also send a MIDI program change number whenever one of its voices is selected, causing the correspondingly numbered voice or program to be selected on the external MIDI device if the device is set up to receive and respond to MIDI program change numbers. This function makes it possible to cancel program change number reception and transmission so that voices can be selected on the Personal Electronic Piano without affecting the external MIDI device, and vice versa. 1. Hold down the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button. 2. Press the E.PIANO voice selector. If the E.PIANO LED is lit when the E.PIANO voice selector is pressed, you have turned program change reception/transmission OFF. If the E.PIANO LED is not lit when the E.PIANO voice selector is pressed, you have turned program change reception/transmission ON. 3. Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

Note: When the power is initially turned ON, MIDI receive is set to the OMNI mode and the transmit channel is set to 1.

The MIDI functions listed above are engaged by holding down the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button and pressing the corresponding voice selector. Full details are given in the following pages.
Control Change ON/OFF Local Control ON/OFF
Local Control refers to the fact that, normally, the Personal Electronic Piano keyboard controls its internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the keyboard. This situation is Local Control ON since the internal tone generator is controlled locally by its own keyboard. Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that the Personal Electronic Piano keyboard does not play the internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector when notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN connector. This means that while an external MIDI sequence recorder such as the Yamaha EMQ-1 Memory Box, for example, plays the Personal Electronic Pianos internal voices, an external tone generator such as the EMT-l can be played from the Personal Electronic Piano keyboard. Normally the Personal Electronic Piano will respond to MIDI control change data received from an external MIDI device or keyboard, causing the selected Personal Electronic Piano voice to be affected by pedal and other control settings received from the controlling device. The Personal Electronic Piano also transmits MIDI control change information when either of its pedals are operated. This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission if you do not want the Personal Electronic Piano voices to be affected by control change data received from an external device or vice versa. 1. Hold down the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button. 2. Press the HARPSI voice selector. If the HARPSI LED is lit when the HARPSI voice selector is pressed, you have turned control change reception/transmission OFF. If the HARPSI LED is not lit when the HARPSI voice selector is pressed, you have turned control change reception/transmission ON. 3. Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

Transmitting the Panel Settings
This function causes all the current Personal Electronic Piano control settings (selected voice, etc) to be transmitted via the MIDI OUT terminal. This is particularly useful if you will be recording performances to a MIDI sequence recorder* which will be used to control the Personal Electronic Piano on playback. By transmitting the Personal Electronic Piano panel settings and recording them on the MIDI sequence recorder prior to the actual performance data, the Personal Electronic Piano will be automatically restored to the same settings when the performance is played back. * The
Yamaha EMQ-1 Memory Box automatically receives and records the Personal Electronic Piano panel settings when a recording is begun, so this function is most useful with MIDI sequence recorders other than the EMQ-1.
The Split & Left Local OFF Mode
In the split mode one section of the Personal Electronic Piano keyboard is used to play a Personal Electronic Piano voice in the normal way, while the remaining section is used to play a second MIDI keyboard or tone generator such as the Yamaha EMT-1 FM Sound Box or EMT-10 AWM Sound Box. In this mode the right-hand section of the keyboard is used to play an internal Personal Electronic Piano voice, while the left-hand section of the keyboard plays the external keyboard or tone generator. Playing the left-hand section of the keyboard produces no sound from the Personal Electronic Piano. The split point, or the key that divides the left- and right-hand sections of the keyboard, is automatically set at F#2. The split mode is useful if, for example, you want to play a piano (Personal Electronic Piano) voice with the right hand while playing a synthesizer bass line or string section with the left hand. When the split mode is activated, notes played on the lefthand section are transmitted via the Personal Electronic Piano MIDI OUT connector on MIDI channel 2. Notes played on the right-hand section are transmitted on the basic channel (i.e. the channel set using the MIDI channel selection function described previously). Damper pedal data is sent via both channels.

1. Hold down the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button. 2. Press the P.ORGAN voice selector. 3. Release the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you encounter what appears to be a malfunction, please check the following points before assuming that your Personal Electronic Piano is faulty. 1. No Sound When the Power is Turned ON Is the AC plug properly connected to an AC wall outlet? Check the AC connection carefully. Is the MASTER VOLUME control turned up to a reasonable listening level? 2. The Personal Electronic Piano Reproduces Radio or TV Sound This can occur if there is a high-power transmitter in your vicinity. Contact your Yamaha dealer. 3. Intermittent Static Noise This is usually due to turning ON or OFF a household appliance or other electronic equipment which is fed by the same AC mains line as your Personal Electronic Piano. 4. Interference Appears On Radio or TV Sets Located Near the Personal Electronic Piano The Personal Electronic Piano contains digital circuitry which can generate radio-frequency noise. The solution is to move the Personal Electronic Piano further away from the affected equipment, or vice versa. 5. Distorted Sound When the Personal Electronic Piano is Connected to An External Amplifier/Speaker System If the Personal Electronic Piano is connected to a stereo system or instrument amplifier and the sound is distorted, reduce the setting of the Personal Electronic Piano volume control to a level at which the distortion ceases.
