Mixing Console
- Editing the Volume and Tonal Balance -

There are many components that make up the overall sound of the Tyros3. These include MIDI sequence data from the Styles, Songs, and Multi Pads, and audio input from a microphone, as well as the various parts of your keyboard performance. The Mixing Console gives you control over the volume and pan settings of each of these components-and some other settings as well-letting you fine-tune the overall sound of the Tyros3.

Basic Procedure

1	Press the [MIXING CONSOLE] button to call up the MIXING CONSOLE display.

2	Use the TAB [LEFT][RIGHT] buttons to call up the desired page.
For details about each display Page, refer to the Reference Manual on the website.

VOL/VOICE	Changes the Voice for each part and adjusts panning and volume for each part. Using the Auto Revoice function, you can also convert the sound of commercially available XG song to the special sound using Tyros3's special Voices. 
FILTER	Adjusts the Harmonic Content (resonance) and sound brightness.
TUNE	Pitch-related settings (tuning, transpose, etc.).
EFFECT	Selects effect type and adjusts its depth for each part.
EQ	Adjusts equalization parameters to correct the tone or timbre of the sound.
CMP	This is the Master Compressor setting which determines the dynamics of overall sound. See page 80. 
LINE OUT	You can specify the output of each part to any of the LINE OUT jacks. For Drum Parts, you can even select specific instruments to be output through any LINE OUT jack. 

NOTE
The Master Compressor is not applied to audio playback (page 75).

3	Press the [MIXING CONSOLE] button repeatedly to call up the MIXING CONSOLE display for the relevant parts.
The part name is indicated at the top of the display.

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.

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

(Table)
[G]	ON/OFF	Turns the Master Compressor effect on or off.
[2 UP DOWN]/[3 UP DOWN]	TYPE 	Selects a Master Compressor type.
		NOTE
		By default, the type is set to "TRS-MS02" (the most appropriate setting for use with the optional TRS-MS02 speaker system).
[4 UP DOWN]	THRESHOLD OFFSET	Determines the threshold (minimum level at which compression starts). 
[5 UP DOWN]	RATIO OFFSET	Determines the ratio of compression (how much the dynamic range is compressed). 
[7 UP DOWN]	GAIN OFFSET	Determines the output level.
