Yamaha QY10 User manual

Congratulations!
You are the proud owner of a Yamaha QYIO Music Sequencer! In a package no larger
than a video cassette, your QY10 has everything you need to program complete compositions
or accompaniments: 8-track sequencer, 28-note polyphonic/30-voice tone generator, and
26-voice rhythm machine. You can record each track in real time or note-by-note, either
using the micro-keyboard on the QYIO panel or an external MIDI instrument. The QYIO
even provides arange
of preset backing "patterns" in a variety of styles including rhythm,
bass, and two chord parts that you can use as a basis for your compositions. You can use
the patterns in whole or in part ... or program new ones of your own. Once
you've recorded
the basic parts, the QYIO gives you a range of important editing functions so you can
reshape and refine your work until it sounds exactly the way you want it to.
In order to take full advantage of the many features and powerful capabilities
of your
QYIO, we urge you read through the manual carefully - the Tutorials section first, then
the Reference section - while trying out the features described. Also be sure to keep the
manuals in a safe place for later reference.
