Yamaha SY-35, Product Manual

A rectangular block will flash at the cursor position while recording.
Recording will end automatically when the note or chord you are playing is
released, or when the maximum of 50 sampling steps has been reached —
how long this takes depends both on the vector rate setting and how fast
you move the VECTOR CONTROL. When recording finishes, the cursor
will move automatically to the PLAY parameter position. At the same time
the VECTOR PLAY mode will automatically be turned OFF so that the
dynamic vector just recorded is active.
Try Out Your Original Dynamic Vector
Now you can play on the keyboard to hear how your dynamic level vector
turned out. If you don't like the results, simply move the cursor back to
REC (by pressing the CURSOR key) and record again.
Store Your Voice & Vector
In INTERNAL Memory
Although you've just recorded a dynamic level vector, dynamic
detune vectors can be recorded in exactly the same way using
the DETUNE SPEED and DETUNE REC functions which are
also accessible in the VOICE VECTOR edit mode (see the
Feature Reference manual, page 13).
When you're satisfied with your first vector masterpiece, you can return to the
VOICE PLAY mode with the option of storing the voice you have just edited
into one of the SY35's INTERNAL memory locations.
There is, however, a slight catch. If you simply go ahead and attempt to
store the voice at this point the SY35 may inform you that the internal memory
is protected, preventing the store operation. Both INTERNAL and CARD mem-
ories feature protect functions that can be turned on to prevent accidental era-
sure of important voices.
When you store a new voice to an INTERNAL memory location,
the voice that was initially in that location will be overwritten
and therefore lost. The initial factory-set voices can be restored
at any time by using the Factory Voice Restore function de-
scribed on page 45 of the Feature Reference manual.
