About the included CD-ROM
The accompanying CD-ROM features special software for use with the Tyros3. Included is a Voice Editor, which gives you comprehensive and intuitive editing tools for the Tyros3. For details, see the separate Installation Guide or the online manual included with the software.

CAUTION
Never attempt to play back the CD-ROM on an audio CD player. Doing so may result in damage to your hearing as well as to your CD player/audio speaker.

Main Features

Realistic and richly textured Voices 
The new SA2 Voices created with Yamaha's AEM (Articulation Element Modeling) technology let you play those Voices more naturally and with greater expressiveness-particularly the wind instrument sounds (page 40). What's more, the Tyros3 has enhanced the already high-quality piano Voices and other important Voices for playing accompaniment (drum, guitar, etc.), and it newly features Synth Voices inherited from our flagship MOTIF series synthesizer.

Intuitive, quick-access sliders 
Eight sliders have been provided just below the LCD display let you conveniently and quickly adjust all parameters shown in the display. The additional ASSIGN slider allows you to assign a desired function (volume, reverb, etc.) and control it in realtime during your performance (page 21).
These nine sliders function as footage levers when the Organ Flutes display is shown (page 46).

Dynamic, contemporary Auto Accompaniment Styles 
The Tyros3 contains a huge amount of exceptionally high-quality Styles including the new MegaVoices. They feature a newly developed note transposition system for guitar tracks and additional two DSP effect blocks exclusively for the Styles.

Two-track Hard Disk Recorder
The Hard Disk Recorder lets you record your performances to two audio tracks-Main and Sub. A Bounce recording feature lets you record even more tracks, allowing you to easily record multiple parts in layers (page 74).

Convenient Multi Pad Sync function / Registrations and OTS Information
You can embellish your performance as you play with several preset phrases by using the Multi Pads. These can even be synchronized with Style/Song playback (page 65).
The information displays for Registration Memory and One Touch Setting allow you to confirm the registered panel setups easily (pages 53, 70). 

Voice Expandability
Download additional Voices from the website and load them to the Tyros3-and increase your selection of available Voices (page 39). 

Easy connection with peripheral devices
The built-in LAN terminal lets you easily connect your Tyros3 directly to the Internet (page 82). The USB terminals compatible with USB 2.0 HighSpeed enable high-speed communication with USB storage devices and computers (pages 94, 96).

The Tyros3 is compatible with the following formats.

"GM (General MIDI)" is one of the most common Voice allocation formats. "GM System Level 2" is a standard specification that enhances the original "GM" and improves Song data compatibility. It provides for increased polyphony, greater Voice selection, expanded Voice parameters, and integrated effect processing.

XG is a major enhancement of the GM System Level 1 format, and was developed by Yamaha specifically to provide more Voices and variations, as well as greater expressive control over Voices and effects, and to ensure compatibility of data well into the future.

GS was developed by the Roland Corporation. In the same way as Yamaha XG, GS is a major enhancement of the GM specifically to provide more Voices and Drum kits and their variations, as well as greater expressive control over Voices and effects.

The Yamaha XF format enhances the SMF (Standard MIDI File) standard with greater functionality and open-ended expandability for the future. The Tyros3 is capable of displaying lyrics when an XF file containing lyric data is played.

"SFF (Style File Format)" is an original Style file format by Yamaha which uses a unique conversion system to provide high-quality automatic accompaniment based on a wide range of chord types. "SFF GE (Guitar Edition)" is an enhanced format of SFF, which features improved note transposition for guitar tracks.

VH (Vocal Harmony) employs the digital signal processing technology to automatically add appropriate vocal harmonies to a lead vocal line sung by the user.

"AEM" is the trademark of Yamaha's leading-edge tone generation technology. For information on AEM, refer to page 40.

(Figure)
Shown here is the optional L-7S Keyboard Stand.

Starting Up
This section contains information about setting up your Tyros3 and preparing to play. Be sure to read through this section carefully before turning the power on.

Power Supply

WARNING
Make sure your Tyros3 is rated for the AC voltage supplied in the area in which it is to be used (as listed on the bottom). Connecting the unit to the wrong AC supply can cause serious damage to the internal circuitry and may even pose a shock hazard!

WARNING
Use only the AC power cord supplied with the Tyros3. If the supplied cord is lost or damaged and needs to be replaced, contact your Yamaha dealer. The use of an inappropriate replacement can pose a fire and shock hazard!

WARNING
The type of AC power cord provided with the Tyros3 may be different depending on the country in which it is purchased (a third prong may be provided for grounding purposes). Improper connection of the grounding conductor can create the risk of electrical shock. Do NOT modify the plug provided with the Tyros3. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Do not use a plug adapter which defeats the grounding conductor.

1	Make sure the POWER ON/OFF switch on the Tyros3 is set to OFF.

2	Connect the supplied power cord to the AC IN terminal on the instrument's rear panel.

3	Connect the other end of the power cord to an AC outlet.
Make sure your Tyros3 meets the voltage requirement for the country or region in which it is being used.

Turning the Power On
Before you switch your Tyros3 on or off, make sure that the MASTER VOLUME and INPUT VOLUME are set to "MIN" and the volume of any connected audio equipment is turned down.

CAUTION
In order to avoid possible damage to the speakers or other connected electronic equipment, always switch on the power of the Tyros3 before switching on the power of the amplified speakers or mixer and amplifier. Likewise, always switch off the power off the Tyros3 after switching off the power of the amplified speakers or mixer and amplifier.

CAUTION
Even when the POWER switch is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

1	Press the [POWER ON/OFF] switch on the rear panel.

2	Use the [MASTER VOLUME] dial to adjust the volume to an appropriate level.

Raising the Display Panel
Unfasten the lock located at the back of the display panel. Then lift the panel and tilt it toward you. The panel will click as you tilt in back; these clicks are the four latched positions. Once you've set it to a satisfactory position, release the panel. It will gently fall back to the nearest latched position.

To return the panel to its closed and locked position, gently pull it back toward you until the position is vertical, then push it down until it locks into place.

CAUTION
Looking at the display for a long period of time in the dark may cause eyestrain or damage to your eyesight. Make sure to use the instrument with as much ambient light as possible and also take adequate breaks and rest from use.

Preset Voices

Voice Characteristics
The Voice type and its defining characteristics are indicated above the Voice name-Live!, Cool!, Sweet!, etc.. For detailed explanation, refer to the Reference Manual.
In this section, only Mega Voice and Super Articulation Voices (SA and SA2) are explained. These Voices have special characteristics you should be aware of, and they require specific performance techniques to bring out all of their expressive qualities. 

NOTE
MegaVoices, SA and SA2 Voices are only compatible with other models which have those three types of Voices installed. Any Song, Style or Multi Pads data you've created on the Tyros3 using these Voices will not sound properly when played back on other instruments.

NOTE
MegaVoices, SA and SA2 Voices sound differently depending on the keyboard range, velocity, touch, etc. Hence, if you apply HARMONY/ECHO effect, change the transpose setting or change the Voice Set parameters, unexpected or undesired sounds may result. 

MegaVoices
What makes MegaVoices special is their use of velocity switching. Each velocity range (the measure of your playing strength) has a completely different sound.
For example, a guitar MegaVoice includes the sounds of various performance techniques. In conventional instruments, different Voices having those sounds would be called up via MIDI and played in combination to achieve the desired effect. However, now with MegaVoices, a convincing guitar part can be played with just a single Voice, using specific velocity values to play the desired sounds.
Because of the complex nature of these Voices and the precise velocities need to play the sounds, they're not intended for playing from the keyboard. They are, however, very useful and convenient when creating MIDI data-especially when you want to avoid using several different Voices just for a single instrument part.

Super Articulation Voices
The word "articulation" in music usually refers to the transition or continuity between notes. This is often reflected in specific performance techniques, such as staccato, legato and slur. Two types of Voices-Super Articulation (SA) Voices and Super Articulation 2 (SA2) Voices-enable you to create these subtle musical expressions, simply by how you play.

SA Voices (S.Articulation!)
The SA Voices provide many of same benefits as the MegaVoices, but with greater playability and expressive control in real time.
For example, with the Saxophone Voice, if you play a C and then a D in a very legato way, you will hear the note change seamlessly, as though a saxophone player played it in a single breath. Similarly with the Concert Guitar Voice, the D note would sound as a "hammer on", without the string being plucked again. 
Depending on how you play, other effects such as shake or breath noises (for the Trumpet Voice), or finger noises (for the Guitar Voice) will be produced.

SA2 Voices (S. Articulation2!)
Mainly for wind instrument Voices, a special Yamaha technology called AEM has been used, which features detailed samples of special expressive techniques used on those specific instruments-to bend or slide into notes, to "join" different notes together, or to add expressive nuances at the end of a note, etc. 
You can add these articulations by playing legato or staccato, or by jumping in pitch by around an octave. For example, using the Clarinet Voice, if you hold a C note and play the Bb above, you'll hear a glissando up to the Bb. Some "note off" effects are also produced automatically when you hold a note for over a certain time.
Each SA2 Voice has its own default vibrato setting, so that when you select a SA2 Voice, the appropriate vibrato is applied regardless of the Modulation wheel position. You can adjust the vibrato by moving the Modulation wheel.

NOTE
For more information on AEM technology, see below.

You can also use the [ART. 1]/[ART. 2] buttons to add articulations to the SA and SA2 Voices (page 42). 
For details on how to best play each SA and SA2 Voice, call up the information window (pressing the [6 UP] (INFO) button in the Voice Selection display.)

NOTE
The characteristics of SA2 Voices (default vibrato setting and articulation effects applied by the [ART] buttons) are effective for real-time performance; however, these effects may not be completely reproduced when you play back a Song which has been recorded using SA2 Voices.

AEM Technology
When you play the piano, pressing a "C" key produces a definite and relatively fixed C note. When you play a wind instrument, however, a single fingering may produce several different sounds depending on the breath strength, the note length, the adding of trills or bend effects, and other performance techniques. Also, when playing two notes continuously-for example "C" and "D"-these two notes will be smoothly joined, and not sound independent as they would on a piano.

AEM (Articulation Element Modeling) is the technology for simulating this characteristic of instruments. During performance, the most appropriate sound samples are selected in sequence in real time, from huge quantities of sampled data. They are smoothly joined and sounded-as would naturally occur on an actual acoustic instrument. 

This technology to smoothly join different samples enables the application of realistic vibrato. Conventionally on electronic musical instruments, vibrato is applied by moving the pitch periodically. AEM technology goes much further by analyzing and disaggregating the sampled vibrato waves, and smoothly joins the disaggregated data in real time during your performance. If you move the Modulation wheel when you play the SA2 Voice (using AEM technology), you can also control the depth of the vibrato, while maintaining its realistic quality.

Transposing the Pitch of the Keyboard
The TRANSPOSE [minus]/[plus] buttons transpose the overall pitch of the instrument (the keyboard sound, Style playback, Song playback, and so on) in semitone steps. Press the [plus] and [minus] buttons simultaneously to instantly reset the transpose value to 0.

NOTE
The Transpose functions do not affect the Drum Kit or SFX Kit Voices.

NOTE
You can also change the transpose settings in the MIXING CONSOLE display: [MIXING CONSOLE] -> TAB [LEFT][RIGHT] TUNE -> [1 UP DOWN] to [3 UP DOWN] TRANSPOSE.

The UPPER OCTAVE [minus]/[plus] buttons allow the pitch of the RIGHT 1 to 3 parts to be shifted up or down by one octave. Press the [plus] and [minus] buttons simultaneously to instantly reset the octave value to 0.

Using the Wheels

Using the Pitch Bend Wheel
Use the PITCH BEND wheel to bend notes up (roll the wheel away from you) or down (roll the wheel toward you) while playing the keyboard. The Pitch Bend is applied to all the keyboard parts (RIGHT 1 to 3 and LEFT). The PITCH BEND wheel is self-centering and will automatically return to normal pitch when released.

NOTE
The effects caused by using the PITCH BEND Wheel may not be applied to the LEFT part during Style playback depending on the Style setting.

The maximum pitch bend range can be changed on the Mixing Console display: [MIXING CONSOLE] -> TAB [LEFT][RIGHT] TUNE -> [H] PITCH BEND RANGE.

Using the Modulation Wheel
The Modulation function applies a vibrato effect to notes played on the keyboard. By default, this is applied to the keyboard parts RIGHT 1 to 3. Moving the MODULATION wheel down (toward you) decreases the depth of the effect, while moving it up (away from you) increases it.

NOTE
Depending on the selected Voice, the MODULATION wheel may control volume, filter or some other parameter instead of vibrato.

NOTE
To avoid accidentally applying modulation, make sure the MODULATION Wheel is set at minimum (down) position before you start playing.

NOTE
The effects caused by using the MODULATION wheel may not be applied to the LEFT part during Style playback depending on the Style setting.

You can set whether the effects caused by the MODULATION Wheel will be applied or not to each of the keyboard part: [FUNCTION] -> [D] CONTROLLER -> TAB [LEFT][RIGHT] KEYBOARD/PANEL -> [A]/[B] 3 MODULATION WHEEL

Adding Articulation Effects to Super Articulation Voices
With the [ART. 1]/[ART. 2] buttons, you can add articulation effects and characteristic instrument performance sounds to your playing. When you select a SA or SA2 Voice, the [ART. 1] and/or [ART. 2] buttons may light in green. Pressing a lit button adds articulation. (Pressing a button which is not lit has no effect.)

NOTE
The applied articulation effect differs depending on the selected Voice. For details, refer to the Information display called up by pressing the [6 UP] (INFO) button on the Voice Selection display. 

Depending on the selected Voice, there are three types of effects.

Type 1
With this type, you can use the available [ART] button to trigger different playing effects, separate from your keyboard playing. For example, in the case of the SA Saxophone Voice, pressing the [ART. 1] button produces the sound of a sax player taking a breath, and pressing the [ART. 2] button produces the noise of the saxophone's keys. (You can effectively intersperse these into the notes as you play.) In the case of the SA JazzClean Voice in GUITAR category, the [ART. 1] button produces a body tapping sound and the [ART. 2] button produces some fret noise.
While the articulation effect sounds, the button lights in red.

Articulation Sound

Type 2
In this type, playing the keyboard while holding down the available [ART] button changes the nature of Voice. For example, in the case of the SA Nylon Guitar Voice, holding down the [ART. 1] button lets you play harmonics for the guitar Voice. Releasing the button returns the Voice to normal. In the case of SA BigBandBrass Voice, normally there is a pitch "shake" when you play at a higher velocity, but if you hold the [ART. 1] button while you play, the shake will be replaced by a fall.
The button lights in red while it is being held down.

Type 3
With this type, pressing the available [ART] button alters the attack and release of the note. Each [ART] button has two different effects, depending on whether you press it before you play a note, or while you are holding a note.
For example, in the case of SA2 Jazz Trumpet, pressing the [ART. 1] button before you play a note produces a bend up to the note you first play. Pressing it while you are holding a note will produce a bend down as you release the note. Pressing the [ART. 2] button before playing a note will produce a long glissando up to the note you are playing, and pressing it while holding a note will produce a fall when you release the note.
When you press the available [ART] button, it will flash in red until the effect is finished playing. You can cancel by pressing the button again while it flashes. Just after you press/release the note and articulation effect sounds, the button lights in red. 

NOTE
Keeping with the realistic response of the original instruments, the effects applied vary depending on the range you are playing in.

Type 3 effects can also be used as the same manner as Type 2. Holding an [ART] button (the button flashes in red) and playing/releasing a note enables you to add the articulation effect several times in succession.

Notice for when Super Articulation Voices are selected for multiple parts
When you select SA/SA2 Voices for two or more keyboard parts, using an [ART] button simultaneously affects all parts on which SA/SA2 Voices are selected. 
When a Type 3 effect is assigned to both the Right and Left parts and an [ART] button flashes in red (standby status), playing only one part (for example Right part) adds an articulation effect to only the Right part. Since the other part (Left part) is kept in standby status, the button continues flashing. To cancel the standby status, you need to play the keyboard in the Left part range. (Pressing the flashing button cannot cancel standby status, because this can cancel the standby of the Left part but turns the Right part to standby again.)

Applying Voice Effects
The Tyros3 features a sophisticated multi-processor effect system which can add extraordinary depth and expression to your sound. This effect system can be turned on or off by using the following buttons.

(Figure)
These three effect systems are applied to the currently selected keyboard part (RIGHT 1, 2, 3, or LEFT)

HARMONY/ECHO
The Harmony/Echo types are applied to the right-hand Voices. Refer to "Applying Harmony to Your Right-hand Melody" on page 45.

INITIAL TOUCH
This button turns the touch response of the keyboard on or off. When OFF, the same volume is produced no matter how strongly or softly you play the keyboard.

SUSTAIN
When this Sustain function is on, all notes played on the keyboard with right-hand part (RIGHT 1, 2, 3) have a longer sustain. 

MONO
When this button is on, the part's Voice is played monophonically (only one note at a time). Using the MONO mode lets you play single, lead sounds (such as brass instruments) more realistically. It also lets you expressively control the Portamento effect (depending on the selected Voice) by playing legato.
When this button is off, the part's Voice played polyphonically.

NOTE
Portamento is a function that creates a smooth transition in pitch from the first note played on the keyboard to the next. 

DSP/DSP VARIATION
With the digital effects built into the instrument, you can add ambience and depth to your music in a variety of ways-such as adding reverb that makes you sound like you are playing in a concert hall.
The [DSP] button is used to turn the DSP (Digital Signal Processor) effect on or off for the currently selected keyboard part.
The [VARIATION] button is used to change between variations of the DSP effect. You could use this while you play, for example, to change the rotating speed (slow/fast) of the rotary speaker effect.

NOTE
The effect type can be changed. On the Voice Selection display, select [5 UP] (VOICE SET) -> TAB [LEFT][RIGHT] EFFECT/EQ -> [A]/[B] 2 DSP.

Applying Harmony to Your Right-hand Melody (HARMONY/ECHO)
Among the Voice Effects, Harmony is one of the most impressive. It automatically adds harmony parts to the notes you play with your right hand-immediately giving you a more full and professional sound. 

1	Turn the [HARMONY/ECHO] button on.

2	Turn on both the [ACMP] button and [SYNC START] button (page 48) and make sure that the RIGHT 1 part is on (page 36).

3	Play a chord with your left hand to start the Style (page 49) and play some notes in the right-hand range of the keyboard.

(Figure)
Chord section
Split Point
In this example, harmony notes in the scale of C major (the chord played in the left hand) are automatically added to the notes played in the right-hand range of the keyboard.

You can also use the Harmony effect with the Style stopped. Simply hold down a chord with your left hand and play a melody with your right.

Many of the Voices have been automatically set to play certain Harmony/Echo types that match the particular Voice. Try out some of Voices. You can also change the Harmony/Echo type: [FUNCTION] -> [F] HARMONY/ECHO.

Creating Your Original Organ Flutes Voices
The Tyros3 uses advanced digital technology to recreate the legendary sound of vintage organs. Just as on a traditional organ, you can create your own sound by increasing and decreasing the levels of the flute footages.

1	Press the [ORGAN FLUTES] button.
The FOOTAGE Page of the Organ Flutes Voice is called up.

2	Use the [ASSIGN] slider and [1] to [8] sliders to adjust the footage settings.
The footage settings determine the basic sound of the organ flutes. The term "footage" is a reference to the sound generation of traditional pipe organs, in which the sound is produced by pipes of different lengths (in feet).

NOTE
You can also use the [1 UP DOWN] to [8 UP DOWN] buttons to adjust the footages 5 1/3'-1'.

NOTE
When this display is shown, the function assigned to the ASSIGN controller does not work. The ASSIGN slider works only to adjust the 16' footage. 

If you want, you can select the Organ type, change the Rotary Speaker speed and adjust the Vibrato setting, by using the [A] to [C] and [F] to [H] buttons.

NOTE
About the VOLUME/ATTACK Page and EFFECT/EQ Page, see the Reference Manual on the website. 

(Table)
[A]/[B]	ORGAN TYPE	Specifies the type of organ tone generation to be simulated: Sine or Vintage.
[C]	ROTARY SP SPEED	Alternately switches between the slow and fast rotary speaker speeds when a rotary speaker effect is selected for the Organ Flutes (DSP TYPE parameter in the EFFECT/EQ Page), and the VOICE EFFECT [DSP] button is turned on. 
[F]	VIBRATO OFF	Alternately turns the vibrato effect for the Organ Flutes Voice ON or OFF.
[G]	VIBRATO ON	
[H]	VIBRATO DEPTH	Sets the Vibrato depth to one of three levels: 1 (low), 2 (mid), or 3 (high).

Styles
- Playing Rhythm and Accompaniment -

The Tyros3 features a variety of accompaniment and rhythmic backing patterns (called "Styles") in a variety of different musical genres including pop, jazz, and many others. The Style features Auto Accompaniment, letting you produce automatic accompaniment playback simply by playing "chords" with your left hand. This lets you automatically recreate the sound of a full band or orchestra-even if you're playing by yourself. 

Playing a Style with the Auto Accompaniment

1	Press one of the STYLE category selection buttons to call up the Style Selection display.

2	Press one of the [A] to [J] buttons to select the desired Style.
Pressing one of the [1 UP] to [4 UP] buttons or pressing the same STYLE button again can call up the other display page.

3	Press the [ACMP] button to turn on the Auto Accompaniment.
The specific left-hand section of the keyboard (page 38) becomes the Chord section, and chords played in this section are automatically detected and used as a basis for fully automatic accompaniment with the selected Style.

4	Press the [SYNC START] button to enable synchronized start.

5	As soon as you play a chord with your left hand, the selected Style starts.
Try playing chords with your left hand and play melody with your right hand.

NOTE
If you want to know which key you need to play to make certain chords, call up the CHORD FINGERING display: 
[FUNCTION] -> [C] STYLE SETTING/SPLIT POINT/CHORD FINGERING -> TAB [LEFT][RIGHT] CHORD FINGERING.
For more information, refer to the Reference Manual on the website.

6	Press the [START/STOP] button to stop Style playback.

Style Characteristics
The Style type and its defining characteristics are indicated on the Preset Style icon.
Pro: These Styles provide professional and exciting arrangements combined with perfect playability. The resulting accompaniment exactly follows the chords of the player. As a result, your chord changes and colorful harmonies are instantly transformed into lifelike musical accompaniment.
Session: These Styles provide even greater realism and authentic backing by mixing in original chord types and changes, as well as special riffs with chord changes, with the Main sections. These have been programmed to add "spice" and a professional touch to your performances of certain songs and in certain genres. Keep in mind, however, that the Styles may not necessarily be appropriate-or even harmonically correct-for all songs and for all chord playing. In some cases for example, playing a simple major triad for a country song may result in a "jazzy" seventh chord, or playing an on-bass chord may result in inappropriate or unexpected accompaniment.

Style file compatibility
The Tyros3 uses the SFF GE file format (page 7). The Tyros3 can play back existing SFF files, but they will be saved in the SFF GE format when the file is saved (or pasted) in the Tyros3. Please keep in mind that the saved file can only be played back on instruments that are compatible with the SFF GE format.

Operating Style Playback

To Start/Stop Playing

[START/STOP] button
Style starts playing back as soon as the [START/STOP] button is pressed. To stop playback, press the button again.

[SYNC START] button
This puts the Style playback in "standby." The Style starts playing back when you press any note on the keyboard (when [ACMP] is off) or you play a chord with your left hand (when [ACMP] is on). When you start the Style playback with the [SYNC START] button, pressing this button again stops playback and puts the playback in "standby" again.

[SYNC STOP] button
You can start and stop the Style anytime you want by simply playing or releasing the keys in the chord section of the keyboard. Make sure that the [ACMP] button is on, press the [SYNC STOP] button, then play the keyboard.

INTRO [1] to [3] buttons
The Tyros3 features three different Intro sections to add an introduction before starting the Style playback. After pressing one of the INTRO [1] to [3] buttons, start playback by using the [START/STOP] button or [SYNC START] button. When the Intro finishes playing, the Style playback automatically shifts to the Main section.

ENDING/rit. [1] to [3] buttons
The Tyros3 features three different Ending sections to add an ending before stopping Style playback. When you press one of the Ending [1] to [3] buttons while Style is playing back, the Style will automatically stop after the ending is played. You can have the ending gradually slow down (ritardando) by pressing the same ENDING button once again, while the ending is playing.

About the lamp status of the section buttons (INTRO/MAIN VARIATION/BREAK/ENDING)
Red: The section is currently selected.

Recording Audio with the Hard Disk Recorder
Here you'll learn how to record your performance as audio data to an installed hard disk drive. For example, by connecting a guitar, microphone or other device to the instrument, you can record an ensemble performance of guitar and keyboard together or record yourself singing along with Song playback. The Hard Disk Recorder function gives you two tracks to work with: Main and Sub. By effective use of the Bounce Recording feature, you can mix down previous takes and record many more than just two tracks, one by one. The performance data is saved as a WAV file of conventional CD quality (44.1 kHz/16 bit). You can also export the recorded data to a USB storage device, then play and even edit the recorded performance on computer.

The following sounds can be recorded.
Internal sound of the Tyros3 (Keyboard parts (Right 1, Right 2, Right 3, Left), Multi Pad, Song parts, Style parts)
Input from a microphone, guitar or other instrument (via the [LINE IN/MIC] jack).
Input from another audio device, such as a CD player, digital audio player or the like (via the [LINE IN/MIC] jack).

Recording Your Performance
This section explains how to record your performance to the Hard Disk Recorder. For example, you can first record your keyboard performance to the Main track, then record your voice (vocal) to the Sub track by the procedure described below. You can record a maximum of 80 minutes to one audio song.

1	Set the desired Voice, Style, etc. which you want to use for your performance.
For instructions on selecting a Voice, see page 36. For instructions on selecting a Style and using auto accompaniment, see page 48.

IMPORTANT
For recording, your hard disk drive should have at least 50 MB. Make sure there is enough available space on the hard disk: [FUNCTION] -> [I] UTILITY -> TAB [LEFT][RIGHT] MEDIA -> [F] PROPERTY.

2	Press the HARD DISK RECORDER [SETTING] button to call up the Audio Setting display.
By playing the keyboard, you can check the signal on the REC MONITOR meter.

Master Compressor
Compressor is an effect commonly used to limit and compress the dynamics (softness/loudness) of an audio signal. For signals that vary widely in dynamics, such as vocals and guitar parts, it "squeezes" the dynamic range, effectively making soft sounds louder and loud sounds softer. When used with gain to boost the overall level, this creates a more powerful, more consistently high-level sound. 

Editing Master Compressor Settings
Select the [CMP] tab in step 2 on page 78.

(Figure)
Displays the Gain Reduction (compressed level) and output level.

Internet Direct Connection
- Connecting the Tyros3 Directly to the Internet -

You can purchase and download Song data and other types of data from the special website by directly connecting to the Internet. 

Connecting the Instrument to the Internet
You can connect the instrument to a full-time online connection (ADSL, optical fiber, cable Internet, etc.) via a router or a modem equipped with a router. For specific instructions on connecting (as well as information on compatible LAN adaptors, routers, etc.), refer to the Yamaha website (http://music.yamaha.com/idc/).

NOTE
Depending on the Internet connection, you may not be able to connect to two or more devices (for example, a computer and the instrument), depending on the contract with the provider. This means you cannot connect with the Tyros3. If in doubt, check your contract or contact your provider.

Use a computer to connect to the Internet and get online before connecting the instrument, since no modem or router settings can be made from the instrument itself.

To use the Internet connection, you will first need to subscribe to an Internet service or provider.

Connections
- Using Tyros3 with Other Devices -

CAUTION
Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the power of all components. Also, before turning any components on or off, make sure to set all volume levels to minimum (0). Otherwise, electrical shock or damage to the components may occur.

Connecting Audio Devices

IMPORTANT
Since the Tyros3 has no built-in speakers, you need to monitor its sound output via external audio equipment. Alternatively, you could use a pair of headphones (page 15).

Connecting the Optional Yamaha TRS-MS02 Speaker
Use the [TO RIGHT SPEAKER], [TO LEFT SPEAKER] and [TO SUB WOOFER L/R] jacks. See page 100.

Using External Audio Devices for Playback
The [LINE OUT] jacks are used to send the Tyros3 output to a keyboard amplifier, stereo sound system, mixing console, or tape recorder. If you are connecting the Tyros3 to a mono sound system, use only the [L/L+R] jack. When only this jack is connected (using a standard phone plug), the left and right channels are combined and output through this jack-allowing you have a mono mix of the Tyros3's stereo sound.

(Figure)

NOTE
You can send a specific part to desired LINE OUT jack(s). The operation display can be called up: [MIXING CONSOLE] -> TAB [LEFT][RIGHT] LINE OUT. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website.

NOTE
You can also use the [AUX OUT/LOOP SEND] jacks instead [LINE OUT] jacks. However, the output volume from [AUX OUT/LOOP SEND] cannot be controlled by MASTER VOLUME.

CAUTION
When the Tyros3's sound is output to an external device, first turn on the power to the Tyros3, then to the external device. Reverse this order when you turn the power off.

Mixing the Sound of External Audio Devices with the Tyros3 Sound
The [LINE IN/MIC] jacks can be used either as LINE IN or MIC. The [L/L+R/MIC] jack can be connected to any standard microphone or line-level source with a 1/4" phone plug. By connecting an external audio source to the [R] and [L/L+R/MIC] jacks, you can record that source along with your performance, using the Hard Disk Recorder function.
Connecting a source only to the [L/L+R/MIC] jack results in a mono input. Connecting to both the [R] and [L/L+R/MIC] jacks (or only the [R] jack) results in a stereo input.
The TRIM control allows the input sensitivity of the MIC/LINE IN jacks to be adjusted for optimum level matching with the connected equipment.

CAUTION
When the sound of an external device is output to the Tyros3, first turn on the power to the external device, then to the Tyros3. Reverse this order when you turn the power off.

[AUX IN/LOOP RETURN] and [AUX OUT/LOOP SEND] jacks
The [AUX OUT/LOOP SEND] jacks can be used either as AUX OUT or LOOP SEND, and can be selected from the Function menu: [FUNCTION] -> [I] UTILITY -> TAB [LEFT][RIGHT] CONFIG 2. The sound is output at a fixed level, regardless of the [MASTER VOLUME] control setting. Use the [AUX OUT] jacks to output the Tyros3 sound through an external audio system, or to record the sound with an external audio recorder. Connect the [AUX OUT] jacks of the Tyros3 to the [AUX IN] jacks of the audio system using appropriate audio cables. When these are used as LOOP SEND jacks, you can route the output of the Tyros3 to an external signal processor, and return the processed signal back to the instrument via the [AUX IN/LOOP RETURN] jacks-letting you apply your own favorite effects to the overall sound.
The TRIM control allows the input sensitivity of the AUX IN [L/L+R] and [R] (LOOP RETURN) jacks to be adjusted for optimum level matching with the connected equipment.

Install the optional units carefully as described in the procedure below. Improper installation can cause shorts which may result in irreparable damage and pose a fire hazard.

CAUTION
Do not touch the exposed metal parts in the circuit board. Touching these parts may result in a faulty contact.
Be careful not to misplace any of the screws since all of them are used.
Be careful of static electricity. Static electricity discharge can damage the DIMMs or the instrument. Before you handle the DIMMs, to reduce the possibility of static electricity, touch some unpainted metal surface or a ground wire on a device that is grounded.
Do not use any screws other than what are installed on the instrument.

Compatible DIMMs
The Tyros3 does not necessarily support all commercially available DIMMs. Yamaha cannot guarantee operation of DIMMs that you purchase. Before purchasing DIMMs, please consult your Yamaha dealer, or an authorized Yamaha distributor (see list at end of the Owner's Manual) for advice, or see the following page:
http://music-tyros.com/

DIMM Type and DIMM Configuration
Yamaha recommends that you purchase DIMMs that conform to the JEDEC* standard. Please be aware, however, that conformance to this standard does not constitute a guarantee that the DIMMs will operate correctly on the Tyros3. 
*	JEDEC (Joint Electron Device Engineering Council) sets standards for terminal configurations within electronic devices.
Use only 168-pin DIMMs of 64, 128, 256 or 512 MB capacity (synchronized DRAM; PC100 or PC133).
Use only DIMMs that have a height 38.2 mm or less.
When installing DIMMs, make sure to install them in a matched pair of the same capacity. You cannot install only one module and leave the second memory socket open. Also make sure each DIMM in the pair is of the same manufacturer and the same type. DIMMs of different makers and configurations may not work together.
When purchasing DIMMs, make sure that the DIMM design does not utilize more than 18 memory chips per module. (DIMMs comprised of more than 18 chips do not operate correctly on the Tyros3.)

DIMM Installation
Before following the steps below, make sure you have appropriate DIMMs and a Phillips screwdriver.

1	Turn the Tyros3's power off, and disconnect any cables including AC power cord from the keyboard.
Also make sure to close the LCD panel and disconnect a USB device from the USB TO DEVICE terminal.

2	Turn the Tyros3 face down on a blanket or some soft surface, giving you direct access to the bottom of the instrument. 

(Figure)
Cover

3	Remove the four screws from the cover. 

4	Insert the two DIMMs into the DIMM sockets. 
Open the ejector levers, then insert the DIMM vertically in the socket.

(Figure)
168-pin DIMMs
Ejector levers
Notch for alignment
Make sure that the DIMM module is aligned correctly before you install it.
Insert the DIMM vertically in the socket, aligning the notches to the corresponding protrusions.
Press it in firmly until it "snaps" or locks in place.

5	Re-install the cover you removed in step 3, in reverse order. 

6	Check that the installed DIMMs are functioning properly. 
Set the Tyros3 right-side up, turn the power on and check the WAVE RAM by accessing [VOICE CREATOR] -> [B] LIBRARY EDIT -> [8 DOWN] PROPERTY. If the DIMMs have been installed properly, the appropriate available memory size is indicated in the display.

Removing DIMMs

(Figure)
Press the ejector levers until the DIMM unlocks.
Pull the DIMM vertically out of the socket.

Replacing the Internal Hard Disk
If the factory-installed hard disk crashes or when you want to replace it with another one (for example, one you have used on the Tyros/Tyros2), you can remove the current one and install the new one by following the procedure below. The hard disk used must be a 2.5-inch P-ATA (parallel ATA) compatible; however, not all such drives may be installable.

WARNING
Before beginning, switch off the power to the Tyros3 and connected peripherals, and unplug them from the power outlet. Then remove all cables connecting the Tyros3 to other devices. (Leaving the power cord connected while working can result in electric shock. Leaving other cables connected can interfere with work.)
Be careful not to drop any screws inside the instrument. If this does happen, be sure to remove the screw(s) from inside the unit before turning the power on. Loose screws inside the instrument can cause improper operation or serious damage. If you are unable to retrieve a dropped screw, consult your Yamaha dealer for advice.
Install the hard disk units carefully as described in the procedure below. Improper installation can cause shorts which may result in irreparable damage and pose a fire hazard.
Do not disassemble, modify, or apply excessive force to board areas and connectors on hard disk units. Bending or tampering with boards and connectors may lead to electric shock, fire, or equipment failures.

CAUTION
Before removing the installed hard disk unit, make sure to backup any necessary data on the disk to computer by using the USB Storage Mode (page 97). This will prevent loss of important data and enable you to use the data on the new hard disk. (If you need to backup the recorded audio files, save the hidden folder "HDR.ROOT" to the computer.)
It is recommended that you wear gloves to protect your hands from metallic projections on hard disk units and other components. Touching leads or connectors with bare hands may cause finger cuts, and may also result in poor electrical contact or electrostatic damage.
Handle the hard disk unit with care. Dropping or subjecting them to any kind of shock may cause damage or result in a malfunction.
Be careful of static electricity. Static electricity discharge can damage the IC chips on the hard disk or the instrument. Before you handle the hard disk, to reduce the possibility of static electricity, touch the metal parts other than the painted area or a ground wire on the devices that are grounded.
Do not touch the exposed metal parts in the circuit board. Touching these parts may result in a faulty contact.
Be careful not to misplace any of the screws since all of them are used.
Do not use any screws other than what are installed on the instrument.

NOTE
Hard disk drives thicker than 12.7 mm cannot be installed to the Tyros3.
S-ATA compatible hard disks cannot be used.

Before following the steps below, make sure you have an appropriate hard disk drive and a Phillips screwdriver.

1	Turn the Tyros3's power off, disconnect any cables including AC power cord from the keyboard.
Also make sure to close the LCD panel and disconnect a USB device from the USB TO DEVICE terminal.

2	Turn the Tyros3 face down on a blanket or some soft surface, giving you direct access to the bottom of the instrument. 

3	Remove the three screws. 

4	Pull out the hard disk bracket.

5	Remove the four screws to remove the installed hard disk unit from the bracket.

6	Attach the new hard disk unit to the bracket using the four screws removed in step 5.

(Figure)
You should tighten these two screws first.
Make sure the bottom of the hard disk is facing up. Depending on the type of hard disk drive you plan to install, select holes A or holes B to attach the hard disk drive.
* Holes A are used in this illustration.

7	Set the Tyros3 right-side up.

8	Insert the hard disk bracket into the slot.

9	Turn the Tyros3 face down again and fasten the three screws removed in step 3.

10	Check that the installed hard disk is functioning properly. 
Set the Tyros3 right-side up, and turn the power on. If the HD tab appears on the File Selection display, the hard disk is OK.

NOTE
If you have installed the hard disk that was once used for the Tyros/Tyros2 and turn the Tyros3's power on, you can immediately view the files on the hard disk and use the Song files from the Tyros/Tyros2. However, to properly use the Style, Multi Pad, and Registration Memory files from the Tyros/Tyros2, you will need to convert the data using a computer and the File Converter software (available for free download on the Tyros3 website).

Troubleshooting

PROBLEM
When using a mobile phone, noise is produced.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the Tyros3 may produce interference. To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or use it further away from the Tyros3.

PROBLEM
The Main display does not appear even when turning the power on.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
This may occur if a hard disk or USB storage device has been installed to the Tyros3. Installation of some hard disk units/USB storage devices may result a long interval between turning the power on and appearance of the Main display.

PROBLEM
In the LCD display, there are some black points (unlit) or white points (always lit).

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
These are the result of defective pixels and occasionally occur in TFT-LCDs; they do not indicate a problem in operation.

PROBLEM
The overall volume is too low, or no sound is heard.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
The master volume may be set too low. Set it to an appropriate level with the [MASTER VOLUME] dial.
If volume control is assigned to the foot controller or [ASSIGN] slider, set it to an appropriate level. 
All keyboard parts are set to off. Use the PART ON/OFF [RIGHT 1]/[RIGHT 2]/[RIGHT 3]/[LEFT] button to turn it on (page 38).
Make sure the desired channel is set to on in the CHANNEL display (pages 54, 63). 
The volume of individual parts may be set to low. Raise the volume in the BALANCE display (page 55).
Check whether the external speaker is connected properly (pages 88, 100).
Headphones are connected, disabling the speaker output. Unplug the headphones.
A plug is inserted in the LOOP SEND jacks. Unplug the LOOP SEND jacks.
Is the footswitch connected to the appropriate jack?
The [FADE IN/OUT] button is on, muting the sound. Press the [FADE IN/OUT] button to turn the function off.
Has a Voice been selected from the Expansion Voice Bank? The Expansion Voice Bank is a bank for saving Voices that you have created or obtained via Internet, etc., and is empty by default.

PROBLEM
The sound is distorted or noisy.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
The volume may be turned up too high. Make sure all relevant volume settings are appropriate.
This may be caused by the effects. Try cancelling all unnecessary effects, especially distortion-type effects.
Some filter resonance settings in the Voice Set display can result in distorted sound. Adjust these settings if necessary.
Is the gain of the Low band set too high in the EQ Page of the Mixing Console display (page 78)?

PROBLEM
The keyboard volume is lower than the Style/Song playback volume.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
The volume of the keyboard parts may be set too low. Raise the volume in the BALANCE display (page 55).
The [ASSIGN] slider may be set to a low level. (By default, keyboard volume is assigned to the [ASSIGN] slider.) Set it to an appropriate level.

PROBLEM
A strange "flanging" or "doubling" sound occurs.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Are the RIGHT 1 and RIGHT 2 parts set to "ON," and are both parts set to play the same Voice?
If you are routing the MIDI OUT on the Tyros3 to a sequencer and back to the MIDI IN, you may need to set Local Control setting to "off" in the SYSTEM Page of the MIDI display (page 110).

PROBLEM
The sound is slightly different each time the keys are played.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Are the RIGHT 1 and RIGHT 2 parts set to "ON," and are both parts set to play the same Voice?
If you are routing the MIDI OUT on the Tyros3 to a sequencer and back to the MIDI IN, you may need to set Local Control setting to "off" in the SYSTEM Page of the MIDI display (page 110).

PROBLEM
Not all simultaneously played notes sound.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
You are probably exceeding the maximum polyphony of the Tyros3. The Tyros3 can play up to 128 notes at the same time-including RIGHT 1/RIGHT 2/RIGHT 3/LEFT Voices, Style, Song, and Multi Pad notes. When the maximum polyphony is exceeded, the least important notes (such as soft notes and notes currently decaying) will stop sounding first.

PROBLEM
Style playback seems to "skip" when the keyboard is played.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
You are probably exceeding the maximum polyphony of the Tyros3. The Tyros3 can play up to 128 notes at the same time-including RIGHT 1/RIGHT 2/RIGHT 3/LEFT Voices, Style, Song, and Multi Pad notes. When the maximum polyphony is exceeded, the least important notes (such as soft notes and notes currently decaying) will stop sounding first.

PROBLEM
Some characters of the file/folder name are garbled.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
The language settings have been changed. Set the appropriate language for the file/folder name (page 17).

PROBLEM
An existing file is not shown.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
The file extension (.MID, etc.) may have been changed or deleted. Manually rename the file, adding the appropriate extension, on a computer.
Data files with names of more than 50 characters cannot be handled by the instrument. Rename the file, reducing the number of characters to 50 or less.

PROBLEM
When connecting the Tyros3 to a computer, the computer freezes.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
An old USB-MIDI driver which is incompatible with the Tyros3 has been installed to the computer. Disconnect the Tyros3 from the computer and uninstall the old driver, then install the latest USB-MIDI driver. The latest driver can be downloaded from Yamaha website (http://music.yamaha.com/download).

PROBLEM
The Voice selected from the Voice Selection display does not sound.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Check whether or not the selected part is turned on (page 38).

PROBLEM
When a Voice is changed, the previously selected effect is changed.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Each Voice has its own suitable preset settings, which are automatically recalled when a Voice is selected. To avoid this, turn the Voice Set parameter off in the VOICE SET Page of the REGIST SEQUENCE/FREEZE/VOICE SET display (page 110).

PROBLEM
The Voice produces excessive noise.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Certain Voices may produce noise, depending on the Filter (Harmonic Content/Brightness) or EQ settings of the Mixing Console display. This is unavoidable due to the sound generation and processing system of the Tyros3. To avoid noise, try changing the above mentioned settings.

PROBLEM
Some Voices jump an octave in pitch when played in the upper or lower registers.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Some Voices have a pitch limit which, when reached, causes this type of pitch shift. This is normal.

PROBLEM
The Style does not start even when the [START/STOP] button is pressed. 

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
The Rhythm part of the selected Style may not contain any data. Turn the [ACMP] button on and play the left-hand section on the keyboard to sound the accompaniment part of the Style.

PROBLEM
The Style does not start, even when Synchro Start is in standby condition and a key is pressed.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
You may be trying to start a Style by playing a key in the right-hand range of the keyboard. When the [ACMP] button is on, you need to play a key in the left-hand (chord) range of the keyboard to start the Style with Synchro Start.

PROBLEM
Only the rhythm channel of Style plays.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Make sure that the [ACMP] button is turned on.
You may be playing keys in the right hand range of the keyboard. Make sure to play keys in the chord range of the keyboard.

PROBLEM
Auto accompaniment chords are recognized regardless of the Split Point or where chords are played on the keyboard.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
This is normal if the fingering mode is set to "Full Keyboard" or "AI Full Keyboard" in the CHORD FINGERING display (page 110). If either of these is selected, chords are recognized over the entire range of the keyboard, irrespective of the split point setting.

PROBLEM
Auto accompaniment chord does not change even when a different chord is played or the chord is not recognized.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Are you sure you're playing on the left-hand section of the keyboard?
You may be using single-finger type fingering. Change the fingering mode in the CHORD FINGERING display (page 110).

PROBLEM
Song playback does not start.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
If the Song is write-protected ("Prot. 2 Edit" is shown at the upper left of the Song name): 
The original file may not be in the same folder. It cannot be played back unless the original file (showing "Prot.2 Orig" at the upper left of the Song name) is in the same folder.
The original file name may have been changed. Rename the file with the original file name (so that "Prot.2 Orig" is shown at the upper left of the Song name).
The file icon may have been changed. Songs to which write-protect has been applied cannot be played back when the file icon of the original has been changed.

PROBLEM
The vibrato effect applied when a Song is recorded sounds different when it is played back.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
This may occur when you use SA2 Voices which have their own default vibrato value. Depending on the Modulation wheel position, the default vibrato value may be recorded or the modulation wheel value may be recorded, regardless of the actual vibrato sound you have played. To remedy this:
Select a Voice AFTER you set the Modulation wheel to minimum (down) position.
If you want to cancel the vibrato effect, set the Modulation wheel to minimum position AFTER Song recording starts.

PROBLEM
An audio song cannot be copied or cut.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
The audio song file name (which contains the file path, internally) may be too long. Shorten the song name or copy/paste the file to a higher folder level.

PROBLEM
In the Hard Disk Recorder function, an error message appears and audio cannot be recorded to the installed hard disk drive.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
The data on the hard disk drive is fragmented and cannot be used as is. Since there is no defragmentation function in the Hard Disk Recorder, the drive can only be defragmented by formatting it. To do this, first back up the data to a computer by using the USB storage mode (page 97), then format the drive, and finally copy the data back to the drive (using the USB storage mode again). Performing this copy/restore operation effectively defragments the drive, allowing you to use it again.

PROBLEM
The Vocal Harmony effect sounds distorted or out-of-tune.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Your vocal microphone may be picking up extraneous sounds, such as the Style sound from the Tyros3. In particular, bass sounds can cause mistracking of the Vocal Harmony. To remedy this:
Sing as closely to the microphone as possible.
Use a directional microphone.
Turn down the Master volume, Style volume, or Song volume control (pages 16, 55).
Separate the microphone from the external speakers as much as possible.
Cut the Low band via the 3 Band EQ function in the MICROPHONE SETTING display (page 109).
Raise the microphone input level (TH) via the Compressor function in the MICROPHONE SETTING display (page 109).

PROBLEM
Appropriate harmony notes are not produced by the Vocal Harmony feature.

POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Try to change the Vocal Harmony Control setting in the OVERALL SETTING Page of the Microphone Setting display (page 109). Also make sure to use the appropriate method to specify the harmony notes for the selected Vocal Harmony mode. Refer to the Reference Manual.
