MU128

Welcome to the MU128

Welcome to the MU128

Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Yamaha MU128 Tone
Generator!

The MU128 is an advanced tone generator providing an amazing total of
1342 high-quality Voices, full General MIDI compatibility — including
Yamaha’s XG — plus flexible computer interfacing in a compact, easy-
to-use half-rack mount unit.

With the convenient built-in host computer interface and MIDI termi-
nals, the MU128 is ideal for any computer music system — from connec-
tion to a simple laptop to integration in a complete MIDI studio. With its
large LCD and the intuitive graphic controls on the display, the MU128 is
remarkably easy to use.

The MU128 also features completely independent dual MIDI inputs, 64
Part multi-timbral capacity and full 128-note polyphony for playback
of even the most sophisticated song data. A special Performance mode
gives you flexible four-Voice operation, for live performance applications.
Also built into the system are five digital multi-effects and two EQ sec-
tions (one per-part, and one overall), which give you enormous versatility
in “sweetening” the sound. What’s more, the MU128 provides a host of
comprehensive, yet easy-to-use editing tools for getting just the sound you
need.

The MU128 is also compatible with the powerful XG Plug-in System,
allowing you to install up to three optional XG Plug-in boards for
additional Voices and effects. Currently available plug-in boards include
the:

PLG100-VL Virtual Acoustic — which provides stunning monophonic

synthesizer Voices with the powerful physical modeling tone generation
system.

PLG100-VH Vocal Harmony — which produces automatic

“harmonizer” effects, letting you apply one-, two- or three-part harmonies
to a vocal signal (via a microphone connected to the A/D Inputs).

PLG100-DX Advanced DX/TX — which provides vintage FM

synthesis Voices, the same as found on the famous Yamaha DX7.
Three boards (in any combination) can be installed simultaneously. With
the easy-to-remove rear panel cover and the special guide slots, installation
is also exceptionally simple.

The MU128 also has convenient A/D inputs that allow you to connect a
microphone, electric guitar or other instrument, and mix those signals with
