Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Yamaha PLG150-PF Piano Plug-in Board!
The PLG150-PF is a custom tone generator designed for use with a variety of Yamaha elec-
tronic musical instruments. Foremost, the PLG150-PF can be installed to and integrated with
instruments of the Modular Synthesis Plug-in System (such as the CS6x, CS6R, S80, etc.) It
can also be used seamlessly with the MU128 Tone Generator (as well as other MU-series
instruments and the SW1000XG PCI Audio/MIDI Board). The PLG150-PF provides a wide vari-
ety of exceptionally high-quality, authentic keyboard instrument sounds — including piano, elec-
tric piano, harpsichord, clav, and others. It features its own built-in EQ, Reverb, Chorus, and
Insertion effects, allowing you to process the sound without having to use the effects resources
of the “mother” device.
The settings and parameters of the PLG150-PF can also be conveniently edited with a Win-
dows PC computer by using the PF Easy Editor software module (included in the XGworks
Music Sequencer software).
