English Chapter 1: Setting Up Your Disklavier

Basic Disklavier Terminology

The following is a list of several basic Disklavier words that you may need to know before proceeding

with operational procedures in this manual. For additional Disklavier terminology, see the glossary

provided in Chapter 15 in the Advanced Operation Manual.

Disk

“Disk” is used as a generic term to refer to floppy

disks, internal Memory Disks, and CDs.

Ensemble Song

An Ensemble song contains the same left and right-

hand parts as an L/R song, and extra tracks that are

played by the internal XG tone generator.

Accompanying tracks can include acoustic bass,

drums, strings, vibes, etc.

Floppy Disk

The magnetic storage medium that the Disklavier

uses for song playback. The Disklavier uses 3.5

inch 2DD and 2HD floppy disks.

PianoSoft and PianoSoft

Plus are song disks

specially for use with the Disklavier Series.

L/R Song

In a L/R song, the left-hand piano part is stored on

track 1 (L) and the right-hand piano part is stored on

track 2 (R). During playback you can cancel either

part, and practice that part yourself. When recording

an L/R song, you can record the two parts

simultaneously or separately.

Memory Disk

The Disklavier has a total of 64 megabytes of

internal flash memory named Memory Disks that

allow you to store song data without a floppy disk.

MIDI

An acronym for Musical Instrument Digital

Interface. MIDI allows electronic musical

instruments to communicate with each other.

The PianoSoft Disk Collection is a library of

prerecorded song disks made by Yamaha for use

with the Disklavier Series. Many titles are available,

and among the many musical styles included are

classical, jazz, and popular. The disk includes songs

for listening enjoyment, piano study disks for the

piano student, and accompaniment disks for vocal

and instrumental practice.

PianoSoft is sometimes used as a generic term for

PianoSoft and PianoSoft

Plus.

PianoSoft

Plus disks contain prerecorded Ensemble

songs featuring instrumental accompaniment that

can be played back on the Disklavier.

See your Disklavier dealer for a PianoSoft catalog.

CD software made by Yamaha containing audio and

MIDI signals for playing back on the Disklavier.

Software made by Yamaha containing MIDI signals

for playing back along with standard audio CDs.

Song

A “song” usually means a short piece of music with

lyrics. However, in the Disklavier manuals the term

“song” is used to refer to any piece of music.

Tone Generator

An electronic device that generates instrument

voices. The Disklavier has an internal XG tone

generator that can produce nearly 700 instrumental

and percussion voices.

Voice

The sounds produced by a tone generator

expressing various instruments.

Yamaha XG is an extension of the GM (General

MIDI) format. With greater polyphony, more voice,

and effects, it improves song compatibility between

MIDI devices. When a song in the Yamaha XG

format is played on another XG compatible tone

generator or synthesizer, it will play and sound as

the original composer/creator intended.
