Using an AC Power Adaptor To connect your PortaTone to a wall socket, 1u will need the optionally available amaha PA-3/4/40 Power Adaptors. Use of other AC adaptors could result in damage to the PortaTone and/or Power Adaptor, so be sure to ask for the right kind. Plug the adaptor into a convenient wall socket and its connector into the DC 9-12V IN jack on the back of your PortaTone. Inserting Batteries Tum the instrument upside-down and remove the battery compartment lid. Insert six 1.5- volt size "D" batteries as shown in the illus- tration, making sure that the positive and negative terminals are properly aligned. Replace the lid. - When the Batteries Run Down When the batteries run low and the battery voltage drops below a certain level, the PortaTone may not sound or function properly. As soon as this happens, replace them with a complete set of six new batteries. NEVER mix old and new, or different types of batteries (e.g. alkaline and manganese). Accessory Jacks Using Headphones For private practicing and playing without disturb- ing others, connect a set of stereo headphones to the rear panel HEADPHONES/AUX. OUT jack.

OUTThis section briefly shows you how to select from among the various Voices and Styles by using the Numeric Keypad. Selecting Modes Your PortaTone can be made to operate in three different ways or "Modes": STYLE, VOICE and SONG. You should select the Mode according to how you want to use your PortaTone. STYLE @ iets you select and play a setting that includes a rhythm/accom- paniment pattern plus a suitable Voice for that pattern. VOICE @ lets you select and play a Voice. SONG @ lets you select and play either a Song or a Jam Track pattern. To select one of the Modes: Turn the MUSIC MODE SELECTOR @ to the desired Mode. For now, select SONG © . Playing a Demonstration Song A variety of Demonstration Songs have been recorded to your PortaTone to give you a taste of what you can do with the instrument. To select and play one of the Songs: 1. With the MUSIC MODE SELECTOR set to SONG @, use the Numeric Keypad @ to enter the desired Song number. Be sure to enter a two-digit number, as is printed next Playing Your New PortaTone to each song on the panel. For example, to select Song 09, first press "0" on the Nu- meric Keypad, then "9." You can skip this step and go on to step 2 below if you wish to play all songs continu- ously in succession, starting with Song 00. Using the +/- Buttons ‘You can also use the +/- buttons @ on the Numeric Keypad to step up or down through the preset numbers. (Number 00 is automatically selected in all of the Modes when you turn the ~\ power on.) Note that the #/- buttons have a "wrap around” feature, For ‘example, pressing the + button from the last number in SONG returns to Song 00, 2. To play the selected Song, press the DEMO button @. 3. You can adjust the volume of the Song by using the VOLUME buttons @ . If you want to set the volume back toi original default setting, press both VOLUME buttons simultaneously. 4, To stop the Song, press the DEMO button again. (The START/STOP button @ can also be used.) More About the Numeric Keypad A 1, A “click” sound comes from the speaker each time you enter 1 number from the Numeric Keypad. Actually, there are two click sounds: one low pitched sound for the first number you ‘ence, then a high pitched sound for the second and final ‘number. Since you must enter two digits, the high pitched sound isa clear indication thatthe entire number has been properiy entered. (The VOLUME buttons, TEMPO buttons ‘and DRUM PAD SELECT buttons [PSR-150] also produce «“click” sound.) 2. You should enter numbers on the Numeric Keypad relatively quickly. If you don't enter the second digit of a number within about ten seconds after entering the first digit, the first digit will be cancelled. Entry ofa first digit is also ‘automatically cancelled if any other button on the pane! {except for those on the Numeric Keypad @) is pressed ‘before entering the second digit, 3. The PortaTone also automatically ignores invalid numbers ~ numbers that are higher than each range of Styies or Songs shown on the panelThe VOICE Mode features 100 authentic Voices. Many of these Voices have special preset characteristics or embellishments. DUAL Voices have two Voices layered to- gether for ensemble sounds. As with DUAL, SPLIT Voices have two Voices, but rather than being layered, each is played from a different range of the keyboard. SUSTAIN Voices extend the sound by adding a natural, slow release. HARMONY Voices have an ‘ditional one-, two- or three-note harmony added to the original monophonic Voice. Finally, ECHO Voices have an echo effect that adds delayed repeats to the original Voice. Included in the Voices is a special PER- CUSSION Voice (#39) that lets you play various drum and percussion sounds from the keyboard. (Refer to the Percussion Assign List, page 9.) Selecting a Voice 1. Turn the MUSIC MODE SELECTOR to select VOICE. 2. Use the Numeric Keypad to select the desired Voice number. Each Voice is automatically called up with the most suitable octave range setting. Thus, playing middle C with one Voice may sound higher or lower than another Voice at the same key, 3. Play the newly selected Voice. If you want to change to another Voice, repeat step 2 above. You can also play rhythm Styles in the VOICE Mode by simply pressing the START/STOP button. The Style last se- lected when in the STYLE Mode will be played. About the HARMONY Voices 1A single note can be played when several notes aze pressed for the HARMONY Voice. If several notes are played together, only the last note played will determine the harmony notes. 2. The type of harmony depends on the type of Voice selected, ‘When the VOICE Mode is selected, HARMONY s basic chord is always C. when in the STYLE Mode, changing the chord played in the left hand also changes the harmony, ‘whem in the SONG Mode, HARMONY notes change according to the chord of the Song/Jam Track Note: ‘The PortaTone is polyphonic up to a maximum of 12 notes. (Depending on the Voice selected, fewer notes may be available.) This includes not only the Voices played from the Keyboard, but also the notes in a Style patter, and s0 on. ‘Thus, if you play too many notes at one time, some may not sound andior others may be cancelled.The STYLE Mode provides an ideal com! nation of a Voice and rhythm/accompani. ment pattern for various popular music styles, as listed on the panel, The Auto ‘Accomp. function adds excitement to your performance, and it effectively splits the keyboard into two sections: the upper for playing a melody line, and the lower for using the Auto Accomp. function. The split point is indicated on the panel, above the keyboard. ‘About BASS CHORD HOLD STYLE ako includes BASS CHORD HOLD setting (the last [preset number) which works without a rhythm pattern. BASS CHORD HOLD does as its name implies: it generates a chord ‘and bass based on the note or notes you play in the lower part ‘of the keyboard and "holds" it while the chord is being played. Note: ‘When BASS CHORD HOLD js selected, the Synchro Start function does not work, nor does the rhythm run, even if the STARTISTOP bution is pressed. If you select BASS CHORD. HOLD while a rhythm patter is playing, the chythm will stop. Selecting a Style 1, Tum the MUSIC MODE SELECTOR to select STYLE. 2, Use the Numeric Keypad to select the desired Style number. 3. Your PortaTone has a Synchro Start func- tion that allows you to start the rhythm by simply pressing a key in the AUTO ACCOMP. SECTION to the left of the split point. (Selecting STYLE sets the PortaTone to stand-by status.) @ You can also start the rhythm by pressing the START/STOP Button. Zrewpog_UVOWUME A. Oooo DEMO __STARTISTOP O A thythm pattern of the Style you've selected will begin playing. Try playing along with this rhythm. 4, With the rhythm running, you're ready to try out the Auto Accomp. function. Try playing a few single notes with your left hand, and notice how the bass and chord accompani- ment change with each key you play 5. Use the TEMPO buttons to change the tempo of the Style as it's playing. DEMO __STARTISTOP VVOLUME A. OC Oo 6. To stop the rhythm, press the START/STOP button again. Pressing the START/STOP button again produces a simple ending phrase. This also applies to playing Jam Track patterns in the SONG Mode. Vy TEMPOA,Using the Auto Accomp. Function/Multi Fingering | The Auto Accomp. function automatically generates bass and chord accompaniment for you to play along with, by using Multi Fingering operation. You can change the chords of the accompaniment by either using a "Single Finger” technique in the AUTO ACCOMP. SECTION of the keyboard — simply by playing a one-, two- or three-finger chord indication — or by playing conventional full "Fingered" chords. The PortaTone auto- matically "understands" what chord you indicate and then generates the accompani- ‘ment. ~ Though this operation is automatic, you can set Auto Accomp. to function exclusively in either the Single Finger or Fingered mode. To set Auto Accomp. to "Single Finger.” turn the power off, then hold down the "I” key on the Numeric Keypad and simultane- ously turn the power on. pote: In Single Finger, the AUTO ACCOMP. SECTION is set between the Cl Key (the lowest key) and the C#2 key. To set Auto Accomp. to "Fingered," follow the same steps, holding down the "0" key instead. To switch back to Multi Fingering opera- tion, simply turn the power off and on again. Single Finger Chords Chords that can be produced in Single Finger operation are major, minor, seventh and minor seventh. The illustration below shows how to produce the four chord types. (The key of C is used as an example; other keys follow the same rules.)

Examples for Chords ss sss = = Notes enclosed in parentheses are optional the chords will be recognized without them. Note: If the chord is inverted (.c., C-E-G is played as G-C-E), the PortaTone will recognize it as a C chord, However, if aug- ‘mented and diminished 7th chords are inverted, the lowest note will be recognized as the root. 7th flatied Sth chords may be played withthe lowest note as the root or the flatted 7th Minor 6th and 9th chords must be played with the lowest note asthe root. ‘The following chords can not be detected: B augmented, A#m6 and Bm6, Note: For certain chords in some of the music Styles, the accompani- ‘ment chord may remain the same even though different chord Indications are played. Not If CHORD CANCEL (pressing of any three consecutive notes; for example, C-C#-D) is played, the chord accompaniment will stop, but the rhythm will continue playing. ~ More About the STYLE Mode 1. Although the Voice is automatically selected for each Style, you can change the Voice for the upper part while the ‘hythm is running by switching to the VOICE Mode and selecting the desired Voice. (As for each default Voice in the STYLE Mode, refer tothe list on page 10.) 2, Ifyou change to another Style while one Style is playing, the newly selected Style changes atthe beginning ofthe next ‘measure and the Voice of the newly selected Style automati- cally changes as well. The tempo setting ofthe previous Style is kept, however. (When the rhythin is off, changing. the Style changes the tempo to the default setting.) About the Tempo Controls The tempo can be adjusted by using the TEMPO buttons. Turning the power on antomaticaly sets the tempo tothe default setting of Style 00. You can restore the default setting Amy of the currently selected pattern at any time by pressing both ‘TEMPO buttons simultaneously.LSONG ‘The SONG Mode features Demonstration Songs and Jam Track patterns that have been specially created using the rich sounds and sophisticated accompaniment functions of the PortaTone. The Songs in the SONG Mode are gener- ally for your listening enjoyment; however, you can also play along with them by using the Minus-one function. Minus-one, as its ame implies, takes away the melody part of .ne song, allowing you to play that part yourself. The Jam Track patterns in this Mode let you "jam" or play along with a variety of dynamic rhythm styles and chord changes. Selecting a Song or Jam Track Pattern 1, Turn the MUSIC MODE SELECTOR to select SONG. DEMO _STARTISTOP [o) @ Press DEMO to playback entire Song. (Songs repeat in order indefinitely until DEMO or START/STOP is pressed.) @Press START/STOP for the selected Song/ Pattern when using Minus-one or Jam Track. (Selected Jam Track pattern repeats until START/STOP is pressed.) You can also stat the selected Song (Minus-one)or Jam Track. pattern withthe Synchro Star function (as in STYLE) by simply pressing any key on the keyboard, Note: ‘The DEMO button cannot be used to star a Jam Track pattem, If you press the DEMO button while a Jam Track is selected, the number will automatically change to 00 and begin playback 4. If you want to change to another Song or Jam Track pattern, repeat step 2 above. 5. To stop the Song or pattern, press the START/STOP button again. (The DEMO button can also be used to stop Songs, but not patterns or Songs used with Minus-one.) 2. Use the Numeric Keypad to select the desired Song or Jam Track pattern number. 3. To playback the complete Song, including the melody part, press the DEMO button. To use the Minus-one function with the se- lected Song or to playback a Jam Track pattern, press the START/STOP button. (Scores for the Songs have been provided for you to play along with. See pages 11-20.) More About the SONG Mode ‘The Voice for the melody of each Song is automatically selected and you can play the keybourd using the same Voice as the one used for the melody. You can also change the Voice While the Song/Jam Track is playing by switching to the ‘VOICE Mode and selecting the desired Voice. (Voice changes ‘of the preset Song will automatically affect both the melody of that Song and the Voice you play on the keyboard. You can start each Song /lam Track pattern [except Demonstrations} With your selected Voice by selecting the Voice in the VOICE Mode and switching back to the SONG Mode.) However, changing to another Song/Jam Track automatically switches to that new one's default preset Voice and the preset tempo. ‘ong also automatically changes the Style number.‘The DRUM PADS let you play selected drum and percussion sounds. The Pads can be played in any of the Modes. You can play them alone to try out your own rhythms, or play them along with the rhythm patterns. Four different sounds or Sets are available for each Pad, represented by the graphic symbols printed above each Pad. ‘When the power is turned on, the first Set (represented by the leftmost symbol above each pad) is auto- matically selected. Use the SELECT buttons in the DRUM PAD section to change the Set. Changing the Set changes the sounds of all the DRUM PADS at the same time. tee ‘0 DRUM PADS can be played simultaneously.
