Taking Care of Your PortaTone
Your PortaTone will give you years of playing pleasure if you follow
the simple rules given below:
■Location
Do not expose the instrument to the following conditions
toavoiddeformation,discoloration,ormoreseriousdam-
age.
●Direct sunlight (e.g. near a window).
●Hightemperatures(e.g.nearaheatsource,outside,or
in a car during the daytime).
●Excessive humidity.
●Excessive dust.
●Strong vibration.
■Power Supply
●In some areas the PSR-7000 will
have a voltage selector on the bot-
tom panel. Make sure that the volt-
age selector is set for the AC mains
voltage in your area. The voltage
selector can be set (rotated) by us-
ing a screwdriver. If in doubt, con-
tact yourYamaha dealer.
●Turn the power switch OFF when the instrument is not
in use. (The PSR-7000 uses a very small amount of
power to maintain the internal memory contents even
whennobatteriesareinstalledandthepoweristurned
off.)
●The power supply cord should be unplugged from the
AC outlet if the instrument is not to be used for an
extended period of time.
●Unplug the instrument during electric storms.
●Avoid plugging the instrument into the same AC outlet
as appliances with high power consumption, such as
electric heaters or ovens. Also avoid using multi-plug
adapters since these can result in reduced sound
quality, operation errors, and possibly damage.
■Memory Backup Batteries
ThePSR-7000requiresfour1.5VCsize(LR14)batteries
for memory backup power. If no backup batteries are
installed, the memory contents will be lost when then
instrumentisunpluggedfromtheACmainssupply.Please
usealkaline batteries.The averagelifeofa setofalkaline
batteries is about 12 months.
1. Open Battery Compartment Cover
Openthebatterycompartmentcover—locatedonthe
instrument’s bottom panel — by pressing on the two
latches on the cover and pulling outward, as shown in
the illustration.
2. Insert Batteries
Insert the four batteries, being careful to follow the
polarity markings on the bottom panel.
3. Replace Cover
Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it
locks firmly in place.
NOTES
•Never mix old and new, or different type of batteries!
•Toprevent damage dueto battery leakage,it is agood idea
toremovethebatteriesfromthePSR-7000(aftersavingany
important data to disk) if it is not to be used an extended
period of time. (YAMAHA is not responsible irretrievable
internal data.)
■ Turn Power OFF When Making Connections
●To avoid damage to the instrument and other devices
towhichitisconnected(asoundsystem,forexample),
turnthepowerswitchesofallrelateddevicesOFFprior
toconnectingordisconnectingaudioandMIDIcables.
■Handling and Transport
●Never apply excessive force to the controls, connec-
tors or other parts of the instrument.
●Alwaysunplugcablesbygrippingtheplugfirmly,notby
pulling on the cable.
●Disconnect all cables before moving the instrument.
●Physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping, or
placing heavy objects on the instrument can result in
scratches and more serious damage.
■Cleaning
●Clean the cabinet and panel with a dry soft cloth.
●Aslightly dampcloth maybe usedto removestubborn
grime and dirt.
●Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner.
●Avoid placing vinyl objects on top of the instrument
(vinyl can stick to and discolor the surface).
■Electrical Interference
●Thisinstrumentcontainsdigitalcircuitryandmaycause
interference if placed too close to radio or television
receivers. If this occurs, move the instrument further
away from the affected equipment.
■Data Backup
●Save all important data to disk before turning off for
longer periods.
●Internal data (e.g. Registration data) is retained in
memory even if the power switch is turned OFF when
backup batteries are installed as described above. If
youdonotintendtousethePSR-7000foranextended
periodoftime,itisagoodideatounplugtheinstrument

Taking Care of Your PortaTone
●Internal memory data can be corrupted due to incor-
rect operation. Be sure to “save”important data to a
floppydiskfrequentlysoyouhaveabackuptorevertto
if something happens to damage the data in memory.
Alsonotethat magneticfieldscandamagedataonthe
disk, so it is advisable to make a second back-up copy
of disks that contain very important data, and keep
backupdisksinasafeplaceawayfromstraymagnetic
fields (i.e.away from speakers, appliances containing
motors, etc.).
■Service and Modification
●The PSR-7000 contains no user serviceable parts.
Opening it or tampering with it in anyway can lead to
irreparabledamage and possiblyelectric shock.Refer
all servicing to qualifiedYAMAHA personnel.
■Type of Disk
Use only 3.5-inch 2DD or 2HD floppy disks.
■Disk Insertion & Removal
●To insert a floppy disk in the disk drive, hold the disk
with the label side facing up and the sliding shutter
facingthe diskdrivedoor,theninsertcarefullyuntilthe
disk clicks into place.
ing Disk to clean the head about once a month.Ask your
Yamaha dealer about the available of head-cleaning
disks.
■Floppy Disk Handling & Storage
The actual recording medium inside a floppy disk has a
fine coating of magnetic particles in which the data is
“stored”.To protect this coating as well as the disk drive’s
delicate read-write head, please observe the following:
●Always keep floppy disks in their case when they are
notinuse.Neverplaceheavyobjectsonadiskorbend
the disk in any way.Also keep disks away from liquids
and dust.
●Never open the disk’s shutter and touch the exposed
surface of the disk.
●Keep floppy disks away from strong magnetic fields
such as those produced by television sets, speakers,
motors, etc.
●Never leave floppy disks in areas exposed to strong
directsunlight,excessivelyhighorlowtemperature,or
high humidity.
●Never use a floppy disk with a deformed shutter or
housing.
●Do not attach anything other than the provided labels
to a floppy disk. Also make sure that labels are at-
tached in the proper location.
■Protecting Your data
●To prevent accidental erasure of important data you
have saved to floppy disk, be sure to slide the disk’s
write-protect tab to the “write protect”position (the tab
window should be open). When this is done the disk
cannot be written to.
●Make regular backup copies of important data to a
separate floppy disk, and keep your backup disks in a
separate, safe place.
●To ensure the safetyofyourdata(and of the disk drive
itself) always use floppy disks from a well-known,
reliable manufacturer. “No-brand”disks can cause
trouble.
●To removeafloppydisk fromthedisk drive,makesure
the “DISK IN USE”light is not lit and press the disk
ejectbuttonfirmlyasfarasitwillgoandthen,whenthe
disk is full ejected, remove it by hand.
If the eject button is only partially pressed or pressed
too quickly the eject mechanism may not function
properly,leavingthediskstuckhalfway.Donotattempt
to remove the disk forcefully if this happens, since
excess force can damage the disk and/or the drive
mechanism.Try either pressing the eject button care-
fully again, or push the disk all the way back into the
drive and repeat the eject procedure.
●Never attempt to remove a floppy disk during a record
orplaybackoperation!!Thiscancorruptthedataonthe
disk, and actually damage the disk drive!
●Be sure to remove the floppy disk from the disk drive
before turning off the power. A floppy disk left in the
drive for extended periods can easily pick up dust and
dirt that can cause data read/write errors.
■Clean the Read/Write Head Regularly
Thisinstrument employsa precision magneticread/write
head which, after an extended period of use, will pick up
a layer of magnetic particles from the disks used that will
eventually cause read and write errors.To maintain the
disk drive in optimum working order we recommend that
you use a commercially-available Dry-type Head Clean-

The Music Stand
The PSR-7000 is supplied with a music stand that can
be attached to the instrument by inserting it into the holes
at the rear of the speaker panel.
5MIDI IN,THRU and OUT Connectors......................................................................................................................
The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an
external MIDI device (such as a MIDI sequencer) which
can be used to control the PSR-7000. The MIDI THRU
connector re-transmits any data received at the MIDI IN
connector, allowing “chaining” of several MIDI instru-
ments or other devices. The MIDI OUT connector trans-
mits MIDI data generated by the PSR-7000 (e.g. note and
velocity data produced by playing the keyboard). More
details on MIDI are provided on page 124.

Selecting & Playing Voices
ThePSR-7000allowsyoutoindividuallyselectandplayuptofour“orchestraparts”atthesametimeinanumber
of ways. A range of voices can be assigned to each orchestra part. There’s also an “ORGAN FLUTE” part which
simulates an extremely wide range of organ sounds — complete with realistic rotary speaker effect.
RIGHT ORCHESTRA 1
RIGHT ORCHESTRA 2 Both the RIGHT 1 and RIGHT 2 voices are polyphonic voices which can be played over
the entire keyboard or to the right of a specified split point. The default split point is the F#2
key. Either voice can be played alone, or both can be played simultaneously. The RIGHT 1
and RIGHT 2 voices can be selected from a range of 246+8 (Drum kit) voices organized in
12 groups.
LEAD This is a monophonic voice which can be played over the entire keyboard or to the right of
a specified split point. The default split point is the F#2 key. The LEAD voice can be played
alone, or simultaneously with either or both of the RIGHT ORCHESTRA voices. The LEAD
voice can be selected from a range of 123 voices organized in 6 groups.
When only the LEAD voice is being played it has “last note priority”. That is, only the last
note played will sound. When the LEAD voice is being played with a RIGHT ORCHESTRA
voice it has “highest note priority”—the highest note is played by the LEAD voice.
LEFT ORCHESTRA A polyphonic voice which can be played to the left of a specified split point while the
RIGHT 1, RIGHT 2, and/or LEAD voices are played to the right of the split point. The de-
fault split point is the F#2 key. The LEFT voice can be selected from a range of 205 voices
organized in 6 groups.
ORGAN FLUTE This is a polyphonic voice which can be played over the entire keyboard or to the right of a
specified split point. The default split point is the F#2 key. The ORGAN FLUTE voice can-
not be played simultaneously with the RIGHT or LEAD voices. Details on using the OR-
GAN FLUTE voices are provided on page 16.
* Voice numbers include Custom Voice.

Using the Organ Flute Voices
The PSR-7000 has 18 preset ORGAN FLUTE voices
which can be selected in the same way as the RIGHT,
LEADandLEFTvoices:pressanORGANFLUTE voice
groupbutton—[COMBI1-6],[COMBI7-12],or[COMBI
13-18] — and then press the LCD button corresponding
to the desired voice in the selected group. The main
difference between the ORGAN FLUTE voices and oth-
ers is that the ORGAN FLUTE voices can be directly
edited via the voice list display. The editing controls
appear below the voice list (turn [LIST HOLD] on to
keep the voice list and editing controls on the display).
■FOOTAGE.............................................................................................................................................................................................
The basic sound of the currently selected OR-
GAN FLUTE voice is edited via FOOTAGE bars
corresponding to the LCD dials. If the FOOTAGE
display is not showing, press the FOOTAGE LCD
button in the ORGAN FLUTE voice list display.
Theterm “FOOTAGE”isa referencetothe fact that
the sound of pipe organs was adjusted via “stops”
which turned on or off pipes of different lengths (in
feet). The longer the pipe, the lower the pitch of the
sound,thusthe16' (16-foot)FOOTAGEbaradjusts
the volume of the lowest pitched component of the
voice while the 1' bar adjusts the highest-pitched
component of the voice. Use the LCD dials to
increase or reduce the amount of the corresponding
footages to create the desired overall sound. The
longer a graphic footage bar, the greater the amount
of the corresponding footage added to the sound.
