Yamaha DX7s, Owner'S Manual

Basic
Voice Editing
Functions
Voice editing is easier on the
DX7s, thanks to the direct
operator access provided
by buttons 1 ~ 6 and 17 ~ 22.
Operator Select
The parameters accessed using buttons 8 ~ 11 are adjustable for each of the six operators.
While editing Voice data, buttons 1 ~ 6 provide a quick way to move from one operator to
another. The number of the operator that has been chosen will appear in the upper right
corner of the LCD.
Operator On/Off
In order to adjust the settings for the six operators accurately, it is useful to focus on the
sound of certain operators by turning off the output of ones not being edited. While
editing Voice data, buttons 17 ~ 22 provide a quick way to turn the six operators on and
off. The on/off status of the six operators is shown in the center of the upper line of the
LCD. When all six operators are turned on, you will see 111111. When an operator is
turned off, a 0 will appear in the corresponding position of the display.
EG Copy
The EG Copy function from the original DX7 is retained in the DX7s, and is made easier
through the use of buttons 1 ~ 6. Once you have envelope data you want to copy
displayed in the LCD, simply press and hold the Store/EG Copy button. You can then
choose the copy destination using buttons 1 ~ 6.
