Song Auto Revoice
This feature lets you use the high-quality sounds of the Tyros3 to full advantage with XG-compatible song data. 
When you play back any commercially available XG song data or that created on other instruments, you can use 
Auto Revoice to automatically assign the specially created Voices of the Tyros3 (Live!, Cool!, etc.) instead of the con-
ventional XG Voices of the same type. 
1Press the [G] (SETUP) button in the VOL/VOICE Page of the Mixing 
Console display.
The Auto Revoice Setup display is called up. On this display, you can specify 
the Voice which you with to replace with the Tyros3 Voice.
2Press the [8 ▲] (OK) button to apply your Revoice settings.
To cancel the Revoice operation, press the [8 ▼] (CANCEL) button.
3In the VOL/VOICE Page, press the [F] button to set the SONG AUTO 
REVOICE to ON.
Depending on the particular Song data, 
there are some instances where Song 
Auto Revoice has no effect.

Editing FILTER Parameters
[D]/[I] HARMONIC 
CONTENTAllows you to adjust the resonance effect (page 13) for each part.
[E]/[J] BRIGHTNESS Determines the brightness of the sound for each part by adjusting the cutoff 
frequency (page 13).
Editing TUNE Parameters
[A]/[B]/
[F]/[G]PORTAMENTO 
TIMEPortamento is a function that creates a smooth transition in pitch from the 
first note played on the keyboard to the next. The Portamento Time deter-
mines the pitch transition time. Higher values result in a longer pitch change 
time. Setting this to “0” results in no effect. This parameter is available when 
the selected keyboard part is set to Mono.
[C]/[H] PITCH BEND 
RANGEDetermines the range of the PITCH BEND wheel for each keyboard part. The 
range is from “0” to “12” with each step corresponding to one semitone.
[D]/[I] OCTAVE Determines the range of the pitch change in octaves, over two octaves up or 
down for each keyboard part. The value set here is added to the setting via 
the OCTAVE [-]/[+] buttons.
TRANSPOSE Allows you to set transposition for overall sound of the instrument (MASTER), 
Song playback (SONG), or the keyboard pitch (KEYBOARD), respectively. 
Please note that the “KEYBOARD” also transposes the keyboard pitch of Style 
playback and the Multi Pads (since these are also affected by keyboard play in 
the left-hand section).
[E]/[J] TUNING Determines the pitch of each keyboard part.
If the Pitch Bend range is set to more than 1,200 cents (1 octave) via MIDI, the pitch of some 
Voices may not be raised or lowered completely.

Equalizer (also called “EQ”) is a sound processor that divides the frequency spectrum 
into multiple bands that can be boosted or cut as required to tailor the overall fre-
quency response. Usually an equalizer is used to correct the sound from speakers to 
match the special character of the room. For example, you can cut some of the low 
range frequencies when playing in large spaces where the sound is too “boomy,” or 
boost the high frequencies in rooms and close spaces where the sound is relatively 
“dead” and free of echoes.
The Tyros3 possesses a high grade five-band digital EQ. With this function, a final 
effect—tone control—can be added to the output of your instrument. You can select 
one of the five preset EQ settings in the EQ display. You can even create your own cus-
tom EQ settings by adjusting the frequency bands, and save the settings to one of two 
User Master EQ types.
Editing EQ Parameters
[A]/[B] TYPE Selects the desired Master EQ type. This affects the overall sound of the instru-
ment.
[F] EDIT For editing the Master EQ. See page 97.
[D]/[I] EQ HIGH Boosts or attenuates the high EQ band for each part.
[E]/[J] EQ LOW Boosts or attenuates the low EQ band for each part.

4Adjust the Q (bandwidth) and the FREQ (center frequency) of the 
band selected in step 3.
To adjust the bandwidth (also called “Shape” or “Q”), use the [1 ▲▼] buttons 
or slider. The higher the value of Q, the narrower the band width.
To adjust the FREQ (center frequency), use the [2 ▲▼] buttons or slider. The 
available FREQ range is different for each band.
5Press the [H] or [I] (STORE 1 or 2) button to save the edited EQ type.
Up to two types of EQ can be created and saved. When recalling the saved EQ
