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.

THE PERFORMANCE MEMORY

The YPP-50 Performance Memory functions as a digital record-

er 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.

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 Perfor-

mance 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 per-

formance in memory for longer periods, make sure that the

YPP-50 power is turned ON briefly at least once a week.

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 don't 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 Perfor-

mance Memory note capacity.

Whenever you record using the Performance Memory, any previ-

ously 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

and F

keys (the two lowest white keys on the

keyboard), release the button and keys, and then press the PER-

FORMANCE MEMORY REC button one more time to exit the record

mode.

Playback

Playback of the Performance Memory recording begins as

soon as you press the PERFORMANCE MEMORY PLAY

button (the PLAY button LED will also light).

2. Play Along if You Like

Play along on the YPP-50 keyboard if you like. Please note,

however, that the YPP-50's 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 record-

ing 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.
