1. Setting Up Your System
Power-on Procedure
Believe it or not, there’s actually a “right” way to turn on a sound system
that will minimize the possibility of damage to the equipment (and your ears!).
1.
Make sure your sound system’s volume control and the SY85 volume
controls are turned all the way down prior to turning power on.
2.
Turn on the SY85.
3.
Turn on the sound system.
4.
Raise the sound system volume to a reasonable level.
5.
Gradually raise the SY85 OUTPUT1 and OUTPUT2 controls while playing
the keyboard to set the desired listening level.
The SY85 automatically transmits MIDI control change data
corresponding to its control status when its power switch is
turned ON or OFF. This can interfere with operation of other
MIDI equipment connected to the SY85 MIDI OUT connector.
If the SY85 is connected to other MIDI equipment, the SY85
power switch should be turned ON
first, and turned OFF
last.
Load & Play the Sequencer Demo
Once you’ve set up your SY85 system, you might like to load and play the
demo sequence provided on the “DEMO” disk.
Loading the demo data overwrites the sequencer, wave , and
voice memory, so if you have any important data in either of
these memory areas make sure it is safely stored to disk before
loading the demo data.
1.
Insert the DEMO Disk
Insert the DEMO disk into the disk drive. The sliding disk shutter should
go in first, and the label side of the disk should face upward.
2.
Select the Utility DISK ALL LOAD Function
Press the [UTILITY] button so that its indicator lights, then press the SUB
MODE [DISK] key (the lowest SUB MODE key). A display with the word
“DISK” in the upper left corner should appear.
