You have acquired one
of
the
world's
finest
digital
synthesizers!
Your
DX5 incorporates
the Yamaha exclusive
digital
FM voice generation system
which
can be programmed
to
produce
the
most
vibrant, dynamic,
natural-sounding
voices
of
any synthesizer system
available-
-128
pre-programmed voices are provided
with
your
DX5,
but
you can program
any
number
of
your
own
voices and store them on
optional
RAM
data cartridges.
Two
FM voice generator channels are provided
which
you can use individually,
combined,
or in the
split
keyboard mode. The DX5 offers more than
just
spectacularvoices, however,
it also has one of the
most
comprehensive performance effect systems available. In
addition
to the
common
pitch and
modulation
wheels, you have keyboard initial
touch
response, after
touch
response,
foot
controller
and Yamaha's
unique
breath
controller
(foot
controller
and breath
controller
are
options).
Each of these controllers can be
programmed to produce an extremely broad variety of effects, many of
which
are
simply
not
achievable
with
conventional
synthesizer systems.
What's
more the DX5 has a special
performance
memory
which
can store up to 64
combinations
of voices and performance
effect
parameters, so all you need to
do
is press a
button
to call
out
avoice or voice
combination,
each
with
its
own
unique
set
of
performance parameters. The DX5 is also
equipped
with
a
MIDI
interface,
permitting
it to
communicate
and be used
with
other
MIDI
compatible
products
to create a
state-of-the
art
digital
music
system.
The Yamaha DX5 is a sophisticated,
fully
professional performance or recording keyboard.
To get the
most
out
of the many features it offers,
we
urge you to read this operation
manual
thoroughly,
then store it in a safe place
for
later reference.
