    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.

    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.)

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Using the TRANSPOSE [-]/[+] buttons
    The TRANSPOSE [-]/[+] buttons transpose the overall pitch of the instrument (the key-
    board sound, Style playback, MIDI Song playback, and so on) in semitone steps. To 
    instantly reset the transpose value to 0, pr ess the [+] and [-] buttons simultaneously.
    You can independently select the part (Keyboard, MIDI Song and Master) to transpose as 
    desired from the display called up via [FUNCTION]   [D] CONTROLLER  TA B  
    [ ][ ] KEYBOARD/PANEL. For instructions, refer to the Reference Manual.
    Using the UPPER OCTAVE [-]/[+] buttons
    The UPPER OCTAVE [-]/[+] buttons allow you to shift the pitch of the RIGHT 1–3 parts 
    up or down by one octave. To instantly reset the octave value to 0, press the [+] and [-] but-
    tons simultaneously.
    Fine tuning the Pitch
    By default, the pitch of the entire instrument is set to 440. 0 Hz with the Equal Temperament. 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.
    NOTE
    Transposing the pitch in the MIXING CONSOLE display
    You can also make detailed pitch settings (transpose,  octave and tune) in the MIXING CONSOLE display called up

    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.

    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.

    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.
