Yamaha WX5 Owner's Manual - Page 22

Setup Switch Settings The WX5 has 16 DIP switches which can be used to set up a range of important basic parameters. These switches are not intended for frequent use, but rather to set up the WX5 to match your individual playing requirements. Read the descriptions below carefully before changing the setup switch settings. q Remove the rubber switch cover, and use a small screwdriver or similar implement to change the switch settings as required. q The switches are OFF when flipped to the left, and ON when flipped to the right. All switches are OFF when the WX5 is initially shipped. 1-1 Vel 1-2 1-3 Win 1-4 Win 1-5 LIP 1-6 LIP 1-7 LIP 1-8 LIP+ Trns 2-1 2-2 Fing 2-3 2-4 Fast 2-5 Hi ct 2-6 Whl 2-7 2-8 nrm fix B/C EXP VOL nrm hrd tht loos nrm wide P/B M/W off on A C B Fl off on off on PB gen MW filt q Switch 1-1 (Vel) - Velocity Determines whether the key-on velocity will be fixed or controlled by wind pressure. SW 1-1 OFF ON Setting Variable (fixed time delay) Fixed (velocity - 100) q Switch 1-2 & 3 (Win) - Wind Sensor to MIDI Data Specifies the type of MIDI data via which the WX5 wind data will be transmitted. SW 1-2 OFF ON SW 1-3 - OFF Setting Breath Controller (control change #2) Expression (control change #11) ON ON Volume (control change #7) • When using the WX5 with a tone generator which does not have a WX IN connector, be sure to set the SW11(Vel) switch ON so that a fixed velocity value is transmitted, and set the SW1-2(Win) and SW1-3(Win) switches so that MIDI expression control (SW1-2 ON, SW1-3 OFF) or volume control (SW1-2 ON, SW1-3 ON) is transmitted. q Switch 1-4 (Win) - Wind Curve Determines the relationship between breath pressure and the output MIDI volume data. SW 1-4 OFF ON Setting Normal Hard (requires considerable breath pressure to produce maximum volume) q Switch 1-5 (Lip) - Tight Lip/Loose Lip Mode Selects the Tight Lip or Loose Lip playing mode. In the Tight Lip mode pitch can be bent up and down via lip pressure, but in the Loose Lip mode pitch can only be bent upward via lip pressure (page 11).
