Main Features
Your Yamaha AR-80 Electone is packed with many sophisticated functions, yet is
amazingly easy to use. The main features are briefly described here (along with
page references) so that you can quickly understand the capabilities of the
Electone.
Astoundingly True-to-life Sounds
The new AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) tone generation technology gives you 148
exceptionally realistic and natural-sounding Voices. The AR-80 also has special Voice sets for
XG, GM (General MIDI) and DOC (Disk Orchestra) song data. To make sure you’re never at a
loss for notes, the AR-80 has an amazingly large 128-note polyphonic capacity. What’s more,
the touch response built into the keyboards provides full expressive control over the Voices. (See
page 15.)
Variety of Organ Sounds
The Flute/Tibia and Extra Voice sections (page 26) give you access to a wide variety of
conventional and traditional organ sounds — from jazz and pop to church and theatre.
Instant Registration Changes
The extensive Registration Menu section of the AR-80 gives you instant access to 288 different
Registrations, covering a broad range of musical styles. Each Registration features complete
Voice and Style (rhythm/accompaniment) settings to perfectly match the type of music. (See
page 9.) Moreover, twelve Registration Memory panel buttons let you store your own custom
Registrations and call them up instantly as you perform. (See page 73.)
Original Voice Creation
The Voice Edit feature provides simple, easy-to-use voice editing tools for creating your own
original Electone Voices. (See page 114.)
Dynamic, Realistic Automatic Accompaniment
The Style section of the AR-80 features 160 specially programmed rhythm and accompaniment
patterns — in a wide variety of musical genres. (See page 45.) The A.B.C. (Auto Bass Chord)
gives you full, exciting instrumental backing — just like a real band — that automatically
changes bass and chords according to the chords (and pedal notes) you play. (See page 55.)
Plus, the Keyboard Percussion lets you assign and play the realistic drum and percussion sounds
from the keyboard. (See page 61.)
L.M. Split
This special function lets you assign different Voices to assignable left and right sides of the
Lower keyboard, effectively giving you a “third” keyboard. (See page 71.)
