Using DISK ORCHESTRA disks (available from Yamaha), the PSR-5700 will let you enjoy
listening to automated performances, or function as your “private music tutor,” allowing you to
practice various parts of a piece while the others are played automatically.
• PSR-5700 supports General MIDI Level 1 as well as DOC.
For more information, refer to page 50 of the Advanced Features manual.
Insert the DISK ORCHESTRA disk into the PSR-5700 disk drive (lo-
cated below the right end of the keyboard) with the metallic disk door fac-
ing the drive slot and the label side facing upward. The disk should click
into place and the DISK IN USE lamp will light briefly while the PSR-5700
reads and identifies the disk.
To engage the DOC mode from another mode when the disk is already loaded
in the drive, press the [DISK ORCHESTRA/GENERAL MIDI] button. Any rhythm
or ABC operation in progress will stop automatically.
You can use the [EXIT] button or [DISK ORCHESTRA/GENERAL MIDI] button
to exit from the DOC mode.
When the disk is inserted and identified the display shown to the left will
appear (if this display doesn’t appear, press the [DISK ORCHESTRA/
GENERAL MIDI] button):
Use the [-] and [+] buttons below “Song=ALL” display to select the de-
sired song number. Select “ALL” if you want all songs on the disk to be
played and repeated until playback is stopped.
Start playback of the selected song by pressing the [START] button.
Unless “ALL” is selected, the selected song will play through to the end
and playback will stop automatically. The current measure number will
normally be shown on the LCD display during playback.
Playback can be stopped at any time by pressing the [STOP] button.
Please note that playback cannot be started while the PSR-5700 is searching
the disk for a selected song — this can take several seconds.
Some Disk Orchestra software does not produce a tempo display (e.g. free-
tempo phrases, etc.). In this case, three lit bars appear along the center of the
TEMPO display.
When you’ve finished with the currently loaded disk, simply press the
disk drive EJECT button to remove it. This will automatically exit the
DISK ORCHESTRA mode.
NEVER eject a disk or turn the power off while:
1) the DISK ORCHESTRA function is playing.
2) the DISK is formatting or recording.
