Tuning

Two tuning methods are possible with the WX5: Tone Generator Tuning, and Lip Sensor Tuning.
Tone Generator Tuning
Most tone generators have a master tuning parameter
that can be used to tune the tone generator's sound. When
using a Yamaha VL70-m or MU-series tone generator,
use the Master Tune parameter in the System Setup dis-
play in the UTILITY mode to set overall system tuning.
Refer to your tone generator's owner's manual for tuning
details.
VL70-m Display Setting
The WX5 transmits a range of MIDI messages which can be used to control tone generator parameters.
Familiarity with your tone generator and how it responds to the MIDI data transmitted by the WX5 is vital
for realizing the maximum musical potential of your WX5 system. Refer to the tips below, and your tone
generator's owner's manual for details.
Pitch Bend
The WX5 Lip Sensor and Pitch Bend Wheel data are trans-
mitted in the form of MIDI pitch bend data. Be sure to set an
appropriate pitch bend range on your tone generator. For subtle
control a pitch bend range setting of between about 2 and 4
should be ideal. For broader control try a range setting between
about 5 and 7. For really sweeping pitch bends, try a setting of
8 or more.
Velocity
The WX5 transmits breath attack information in the form
of MIDI velocity data. Yamaha recommends, however, that you
set your tone generator's velocity to a fixed value in order to
facilitate breath control of volume. However, if velocity is the
only means you have of controlling volume and timbre, then it
might be a good idea to allow some velocity sensitivity par-
ticularly when playing voices such as bass, drums, and piano,
which depend on the characteristics of the attack for their sound.
Tone Generator Settings
the form of MIDI breath control data which is primarily used
to control volume and timbre. Initially set the breath control
response of your tone generator so that the full breath control
range can be used, then readjust for the optimum range while
actually playing the WX5.

data in order to switch voices on your tone generator. Make
sure your tone generator is set up to receive program change
data, unless you only intend to play one voice and don't want
that voice to be accidentally changed.

• It may be convenient to use the Audition function (page
21) to produce output while tuning.
• The VL70-m also has special "WX Lip" and "WX Lip
Lock" parameters which can be used for optimum tun-
ing and playability.
