Tyros5 Owner’s Manual41 1 Voices – Playing the Keyboard – Example 3 When an S.Art2! Voice is selected, pressi ng the available [ART] button and playing/ releasing a note enables you to add articulatio n effects, such as bend up/down, glissando up/down, brass fall, etc. When you press the available [ART] button, it wi ll flash in red until the effect is finished playing. You can cancel by pressing the button again while it flashes. Just after you press/ release the note and articulation eff ect sounds, the button lights in red. Example 3 effects can also be used as the same manner as Example 2. Holding an [ART] button (the button flashes in red) and playing/releasing a note enables you to add the artic- ulation effect several times in succession.Keeping with the realistic response of the original instruments, the effects applied vary depending on the range you are playing in. NOTE Artic ulation So und Red (flashing) Bl ue Key on Key off Artic ulation So und Red (lit) Red (lit) Red (flashing) Bl ue Notice for when Super Articulation Voices are selected for multiple parts When you select S.Art!/S.Art2! Voices for two or more keyboard parts, us ing an [ART] button simultaneously affects all parts on which S.Art!/S.Art2! Voices are selected. When a Example 3 effect is assigned to both the Right and Left parts and an [ART] button flashes in red (standby sta- tus), playing only one part (for example, the Right 1 part) adds an articulation effect to on ly that part. Since the other part (Left part) is kept in standby status, the button continues flashing. To cancel the standby status, you need to play the keyboard in the Left part range. (P ressing the flashing button does not cancel standby stat us in this case, because this can cancel the standby of the Left part but turns the Right part to standby again.)
42Tyros5 Owner’s Manual The Tyros5 uses advanced digital tech nology to accurately and authentically reproduce th e characteristic sounds of a variety of organs played throughout the world. Five basic types are provided, letting you play with full expression and true realism in various styles that feature organ sounds—from blues and jazz to classical and theatre. Each organ type has its own display, which very beautifully r ecreates the actual appearance of an actual instrument. They feature convenient presets for instantly changing the sound. In particular, the Concert and Theatre types have powerful, dynamic sounds that effectively reproduce not only the instru ments themselves but also the huge venues in which they are played. Moreover, the Vintage, Home and Euro types also provide realistic, intuitive control over the sound with spe- cial footage levers, tabs and switches—letting you adjust the sound with much the same feel as on an actual instrument. 1Press the [ORGAN WORLD] button to call up the Organ World display. 2Use the TAB [ ][ ] buttons to select the type of organ which you want to play. If you selected the CONCERT or the THEATRE, go to step 4. 3Press the [I] button several times until the Preset Select display is called up.

Tyros5 Owner’s Manual43 1 Voices – Playing the Keyboard – 4Use the [1]–[8 ] buttons to select the desired preset. 5Play the keyboard. Adjusting the Footage Levels (only for Vintage, Home and Euro) The Vintage, Home and Euro types also give you access to an unlimited combination of organ sounds, by let- ting you change the footage levels on the FOOTAGES display. The footage levels are changed directly by using the [ASSIGN] slider and the [1]–[8] sliders. To call up the FOOTAGES display, press the [D] butt on once or twice on the display of each organ type. For more operations, see the Reference Manual on the website. You can also use the [1 ]–[8 ] buttons to adjust the footage levels. The term “footage” is a reference to the sound generation of trad itional pipe organs, in which the sound is produced by pipes of different lengths (in feet). When the FOOTAGES display of Vintage/Euro type is shown, the function normally assigned to the [ASSIGN] slider cannot be con- trolled. The [ASSIGN] slider works only to adjust the 16’ footage level. NOTE NOTE NOTE
44Tyros5 Owner’s Manual These are special Voice settings that feature multiple Voices, used in realistic ensemble combinations, such as brass section and string qu artet. Up to four special parts or instru- ments are provided within a si ngle Voice. But rather than just being a combination, the parts are dynamically assigned to the notes, and are distributed among the intervals you play in exceptionally natural, musical ways—as if four di fferent players were actually playing the parts live. Moreover, the discre pancy between each instrument—the pitch, timing, etc.—can be controll ed and “humanized,” making the overall sound amazingly authentic and expressive. 1Press the [ENSEMBLE] button to engage the Ensemble Voice mode. In this mode, the Keyboard parts (L, R1, R2 and R3) will be changed to special Ensemble Parts 1–4 respectively. Since all the Ensemble Parts are handled as Right parts, the Left hand part is not available in this mode, although the Auto Accompaniment can be turned on and Styles can be played with the left hand. 2Press one of the [1]–[8 ] buttons to select the desired Ensemble Voice. From all the Preset Ensemb le Voices, the most recommended eight Voices can be selected on this display. 3Play the keyboard. Depending on your playing, up to four different Voices will be sounded alterna- tively or simultaneously. For example, when you play a chord, each successively played note will trigger a different Voice, creating a highly realistic ensemble sound. Try all eight Ensemble Voices and enjoy! Playing Ensemble Voices Engaging the Ensemble Voice mode erases the Voice combina- tion settings (L, R1, R2 and R3). Important panel settings should be memorized to the Registration Memory (page 85). NOTICE You can edit settings, such as changing each of the Voices that make up the Ensemble Voice and change how the Voices are assigned the notes of the chords you play. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website. NOTE

This basic tuning can be changed in the display called up via [FUNCTION] [A] MASTER TUNE/SCALE TUNE. For details, refer to the Ref- erence Manual on the website. Transposing the Pitch The Transpose functions do not affect the Drum Kit or SFX Kit Voices.

Tyros5 Owner’s Manual47 1 Voices – Playing the Keyboard – Using the Pitch Bend Wheel Use the PITCH BEND wheel to bend notes up (roll the wheel away from you) or down (roll the wheel toward you) while playing the keyboard. Pitch Bend is applied to all key- board parts (RIGHT 1–3 and LEFT). The PITCH BEND wheel is self-centering and will automatically return to normal pitch when released. The maximum pitch bend range can be changed on the Mixing Console display: [MIX- ING CONSOLE] TA B [ ][] TUNE [C]/[H] PITCH BEND RANGE. Using the Modulation Wheel The Modulation function applies a vibrato eff ect to notes played on the keyboard. By default, this is applied to the keyboard parts (RIGHT 1–3). Moving the MODULATION wheel down (toward you) decr eases the depth of the effect, while moving it up (away from you) increases it. You can set whether the effects produced by using the MODULATION Wheel will be applied or not to each of th e keyboard parts: [FUNCTION] [D] CONTROLLER TA B [ ][] KEYBOARD/PANEL [A]/[B] 3 MODULATION WHEEL. Using the Wheels The effects produced by using the PITCH BEND Wheel may not be applied to the LEFT part during Style playback, depending on the Style setting. NOTE Depending on the selected Voice, the MODULATION wheel may control vol- ume, filter or some other parameter instead of vibrato. To avoid accidentally applying modula- tion, make sure the MODULATION Wheel is set at minimum (down) posi- tion before you start playing. The effects produced by using the MODULATION wheel may not be applied to the LEFT part during Style playback, depending on the Style set- ting. NOTE NOTE NOTE
48Tyros5 Owner’s Manual You can apply various effects to enhance or change the sound of the keyboard parts (Left, Right 1, 2 and 3). The effects can be turned on or off by using the following buttons. HARMONY/ECHO ... page 49 This applies appropriate harmony notes to the notes played in the Right-hand section. INITIAL TOUCH This button turns the touch response of the keyboard on or off. When off, the same volume is produced no matter how strongly or softly you play the keyboard. SUSTAIN When this Sustain function is on, all notes played on the keyboard with right-hand part (RIGHT 1, 2, 3) have a longer sustain. MONO When this button is on, the part’s Voice is played monophonically (only one note at the time) with last note priority, letting you play single, lead sounds such as brass instruments more realistically. Depending on the Voice, Po rtamento may be produced when notes are played with legato. When this button is off, the part’s Voice played polyphonically. DSP/DSP VARIATION With the digital effects built into the instru ment, you can add ambience and depth to your music in a variety of ways—such as adding reverb that makes you sound like you are play- ing in a concert hall. The [DSP] button is used to turn the DSP (Digit al Signal Processor) effect on or off for the currently selected keyboard part. The [VARIATION] button is us ed to change between variations of the DSP effect. For example, this could be used to change the ro tating speed (slow/fast) of the rotary speaker effect while you play. Applying Voice Effects These effects only apply to the selected part (the PART SELECT button is on). Portamento is a function that creates a smooth transition in pitch from the first note played on the keyboard to the next. NOTE The effect type can be changed. On the Voice Selection display, select [5 ] (VOICE SET) TAB [ ][ ] EFFECT/ EQ [A]/[B] 2 DSP. NOTE
Tyros5 Owner’s Manual49 1 Voices – Playing the Keyboard – Applying Harmony to Notes Play ed in the Right-hand Section (HARMONY/ECHO) Among the Voice effects, Harmony is one of the most dramatic and musically useful. It automatically applies appropriate harmony notes to the notes played in the Right-hand section. 1Turn the [HARMONY/ECHO] button on. 2Turn on both the [ACMP] button and [SYNC START] button (pages 51–52) and make sure that the RIGHT 1 part is on (page 36). 3Play a chord with your left hand to start the Style (page 52) and play some notes in the right-hand section of the keyboard. You can also use the Harmony effect w ithout Style playback. Make sure the [ACMP] button is on, then simply hold down a chord with your left hand and play a melody with your right. Many of the Voices have been automati cally set to play certain Harmony/Echo types that match the particular Voice. Try out some of Voices. You can also change the Harmony/Echo type: [FUNCTION] [F] HARMONY/ECHO. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website. Depending on the harmony/echo type, harmony will be applied even when the [ACMP] button is off. NOTE In this example, harmony notes in the scale of C major (the chord played in the left hand) are a utomatically added to the notes played in the right-hand range of the key board.
