YAMAHA CS DIGITAL RHYTHM PROGRAMMER PROGRAMMEUR DE RYTHME NUMERIQUE DIGITAL RHYTHM PROGRAMMER OWNER’S MANUAL MODE D’EMPLOI BEDIENUNGSANLEITUNGE THIS MANUAL Congratulations on your purchase of the Yamaha RX5 Digital Rhythm Programmer! Your RX5 has been developed through over a century of Yamaha research and design, using state-of-the-art electronic music technology, combined with in-depth knowledge of the art of making music. The RXS features advanced microcomputer contro! plus a top-quality digital PCM sound storage and reproduction system. With the RX5 you will be able to program virtually any type of rhythm pattern as well as melodic sequences, and since the instrument sounds are digitally recorded they are virtually indistinguishable from live instruments. To ensure that the RXS will give you maximum performance and versatility, we urge you to read this manual carefully while operating the RX6. The manual begins with the all:mportant PRECAUTIONS section. The INSTRUMENTS, chapter gives you an introduction to the sounds available on the RXS, The next three chapters describe how to create Patterns, Songs and Song Chains. The following MODE chapters contain full descriptions of the operating modes of the XS. Each chapter contains a brief OVERVIEW, a ‘ist of the JOBS (functions) in that mode, and full details of each JOB. Ityou encounter any unusual messages on the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) of your RXS, refer to the ERROR MESSAGES chapter near the end of the manual. Finally, the PATTERN CHART and SONG/CHAIN CHART enable you to keep an accurate written record of the rhythm programs you have created on your RXS, and you can use the ‘ORUM SET” CHART to record voice editing and key assign parameters for a complete 24-instrument drum set which you have created on your RXS. And now—it's all up to you. Enjoy your Yarnaha AXS Digital Rhythm Programmer!CONTEN INTRODUCTION — HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL PRECAUTIONS CONTROL PANEL REAR PANELICONNECTIONS ‘THE INSTRUMENTS PLAYING THE AXS'S INSTRUMENTS INSTRUMENT VOLUME ACCENTS THE REVERSE FUNCTION THE DAMP FUNCTION THE WAVEFORM DATA CARTRIDGE ASSIGNING OTHEH VOICES TO INSTRUMENT KEYS.
