New Functions in YC Version 1.10
Yamaha has upgraded the YC firmware, adding the following new functions.
This manual describes additions and changes with respect to the Owner’s Manual that came with your

•Operability has been improved.
• New Live Set Sounds have been added.
• New Voices have been added.

YC88/73/61 Supplementary Manual 3
Changing the setting method of vibrato (CC # 1: Modulation)
The new "P.Mod" parameter (related to pitch modulation) has been added to pitch modulation in the settings for
each Sound section of the Live Set Sound.
The "Modulation Lever" parameters "P.Mod Depth" and "P.Mod Speed," originally in the “Controllers" of the Live
Set Sound have been moved to "P.Mod."
"P.Mod Initial" has also been added to "P.Mod."
With the "P.Mod Initial" parameter, the amount of change in P.Mod (CC #1: Modulation) can now be set to a value
other than 0 when switching Live Sets.
If you change "P.Mod Initial" to a value other than the initial value (0), the icon will be displayed on the top
screen.
