Computer-related Operations

File Transfer and MIDI communication

What You Can Do by Connecting to a Computer

Many digital musical instruments support the MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface). With this technology, the

instrument can communicate with a connected computer, transmitting/receiving the MIDI data, including keyboard

performance information and Song playback data.

NOTE

• This manual covers only MIDI communication between the instrument and computer via a USB cable and MIDI cables. Note that audio-related infor-

mation is not covered.

• For details about MIDI, refer to “MIDI Basics” on Yamaha Manual Library (web site).

Transferring MIDI Files including Songs … page 7

User Song data you recorded on the instrument can be transferred to a computer and saved as a file, while Song

data (MIDI files) obtained via the Internet can be transferred and stored to the instrument, for future listening or

keyboard practice. Data transfer can be done using Musicsoft Downloader (free download).

NOTE

• What you can do in combination with a computer differs depending on the instrument. For details, refer to the end of this manual.

Playing Back Songs on a computer via the instrument sounds … page 6

You can play back MIDI Song files on a computer using the Voice sounds of the instrument with MIDI file play-

back software.

Recording Your Keyboard Performance to a Computer … page 6

Your keyboard performance can be recorded as MIDI events to music software on a computer. Depending on the

application, the recorded data can be edited in various ways, and even converted to notation.

Connecting to a Computer: Which Terminal Should I Use?

Most MIDI instruments are equipped with MIDI terminals or a USB TO HOST terminal for connecting to a com-

puter. Confirm which terminal your instrument is equipped with.

When equipped with a USB TO HOST terminal: … page 4

In this case, the instrument can be connected to the computer via a USB cable (AB type USB cable of less than 3

meters).

When equipped with MIDI terminals: … page 5

In this case, the instrument can be connected to the computer via MIDI cables and a USB-MIDI interface such as

the Yamaha UX16.

If the instrument is equipped with both terminals, we recommend you use the USB TO HOST terminal, since there is

need for only one cable and multiple ports can be supported.

Connecting to the USB TO HOST terminal

Precautions when using the USB TO HOST terminal

When connecting the computer to the USB TO HOST terminal, make sure to observe the following points. Failing to

do so risks freezing the computer and corrupting or losing the data. If the computer or the instrument freezes, restart

the application software or the computer OS, or turn the power to the instrument off then on again.

NOTICE

• Use an AB type USB cable of less than 3 meters. USB 3.0 cables cannot be used.

• Before connecting the computer to the USB TO HOST terminal, exit from any power-saving mode of the computer (such as suspend, sleep,

standby).

• Before turning on the power to the instrument, connect the computer to the USB TO HOST terminal.

• While the computer is connected to the instrument, you should wait for six seconds or more between these operations: (1) when turning the

power of the instrument off then on again, or (2) when alternately connecting/disconnecting the USB cable.

Operating System (OS)

Windows XP SP3 or later (32-bit), Windows Vista (32-bit), Windows 7 (32-bit/64-bit)

Mac OS X Version 10.5.0 – 10.7.X

NOTICE

• Never use a computer having a different OS from those above. Doing so may cause problems. The Yamaha Standard USB-MIDI driver will sup-

port only the above requirements.

1Turn off the power of the instrument.

2Start the computer, then quit any running application software.

3Connect the USB cable to the USB TO HOST terminal of the instrument, then to the USB termi-

nal of the computer.

4Turn on the power of the instrument.

The computer will automatically be set to enable MIDI communication with the instrument.

Yamaha Standard USB-MIDI driver

When data communication is unstable or some problem occurs with the above operation, download the Yamaha

Standard USB-MIDI driver from the following URL:

Playing Back Songs on a computer via the instrument sounds

With the use of MIDI file playback software on your computer, you can play back Songs (MIDI files) via the sounds

of the connected instrument. This section covers the basic procedure. For detailed instructions, refer to the manual of

your particular MIDI file playback software.

1Connect the instrument to a computer.

2Start the MIDI file playback software/application on the computer.

3Have a Standard MIDI file ready on the computer.

4From the playback software, select the connected instrument as the MIDI output destination.

5Start playback of the MIDI file on the playback software.

The MIDI data played back on the computer will be transmitted to the instrument, allowing you to hear the Song

being played by the Voice sounds of the instrument.

Recording Your Keyboard Performance to a Computer

By using Music Production software on the computer, you can record your keyboard performance as MIDI data. For

detailed instructions, refer to the manual of the application. This section covers the basic settings you need to make

on the instrument for recording. Keep in mind that some of the following functions may not be built into the instru-

ment.

Local Control settings

When recording the keyboard performance to the connected computer, the MIDI data you play will be trans-

mitted to the computer then returned back to the instrument. This causes a “double” sound, since the tone

generator of the instrument receives the keyboard performance data directly from the keyboard as well as the

computer. To avoid this situation, set Local Control to “Off,” in order to separate the tone generator of the

instrument from the keyboard.

NOTE

• When you use a software synthesizer as a tone generator, be sure to make settings on the computer application so that the MIDI data received

from the instrument will not be returned back to the instrument, in addition to setting Local Control to “Off.”

External Clock

When you record Style/Arpeggio playback, you should set which clock is used, that of the instrument or the

computer. If you use the clock of the computer, make settings on the instrument so that Style/Arpeggio play-

back follows the external clock.

MIDI Transmit settings

Make settings so that Style/Arpeggio playback as well as the keyboard performance will be transmitted to

the computer. Note that some instruments cannot transmit playback data.

Transmitting the Panel Settings (Initial Send)

By executing this before recording, you can record the panel settings to the beginning of the Song data. This

ensures that the proper and expected sounds will be produced when the recorded Song plays back.

Transferring MIDI Files including Songs

With Musicsoft Downloader (available for free downloading), the data of the following types can be transferred

between the computer and instrument.

Song files with the extension “.mid”

External Song

This refers to Song data which is created on an external device other than your instrument (such as a com-

puter). This refers also to Song data obtainable over the Internet.

User Song

This refers to Song data which is created via the Recording function of the instrument. User Song data can be

transferred to the computer as backup, and then returned to the instrument.

Style file with the extension “.sty”

External Style

This refers to Style data which is created on an external device other than your instrument (such as a com-

puter). This refers also to Style data obtainable over the Internet.

User Style

This refers to Style data which is created via the Recording function of the instrument. User Style data can be

transferred to the computer as backup, and then returned to the instrument.

Backup file with the extension “.bup”

This file which includes the panel settings and performance data can be transferred to the computer and

saved as backup. The Backup file on the computer can be returned to the instrument again, allowing you to

recall the panel settings and performance data you created previously.

The items included in the Backup file and data which can be transferred differ depending on the instrument. For

details, refer to the end of this manual.

NOTICE

• If batteries can be installed to the instrument:

To avoid power down during data transfer and possible data loss, make sure to use the power adaptor rather than batteries when using the

Musicsoft Downloader.

NOTE

• Make sure to stop playback of the Song or Style when using Musicsoft Downloader, since internal memory of the instrument cannot be accessed from

the computer during playback.
