Introduction
With CS6x/CS6R Voice Editor and S80/S30 Voice Editor (hereafter referred to as Voice Editor),
you can edit your CS6x/CS6R/S80/S30 synthesizer’s voices and effects via your computer. Its
graphical user interface provides for easy editing by presenting each synthesizer parameter on
screen as a knob, slider, switch, and so on, which can be manipulated using your computer’s
mouse or keyboard. Finally, all the changes you have made to your voices can be saved to
your computer. If you have saved your edits to a Memory Card (SmartMedia) in the computer,
you can insert the memory card into your CS6x/CS6R/S80/S30 synthesizer and its contents can
be read directly.
n Voice Editor for Windows is a plug-in for XGworks(lite). To use Voice Editor for Windows, XGworks(lite)
must be installed beforehand.

OMS Settings (Macintosh)
The Voice Editor software uses OMS (Open Music System) for MIDI input/output. To use the
Voice Editor software, OMS must be installed beforehand.
n For information about installing OMS, refer to the separate Installation Guide.
About OMS
Voice Editor uses the OMS (Open Music System) to transfer MIDI data to an external MIDI
device. OMS is a system extension that goes in the Mac OS System folder, designed to
manage the MIDI data stream (input & output) in a computer, to enable MIDI data transfer
between MIDI software and hardware attached to the computer. OMS is a de facto standard of
the MIDI environment under the Mac OS, and various music software manufacturers have
released OMS-compatible sequencer and other software.
OMS has the following merits:
As OMS-compatible MIDI applications communicate with various MIDI devices via OMS, it
is no longer necessary for you to set up multiple MIDI drivers for those applications. Thus,
you can avoid conflicts between different drivers with the same purpose (MIDI control).
Once a Studio Setup is read in OMS, any OMS-compatible application will be aware of it,
even if you need to reconfigure the routing of the MIDI data stream or change the current
Studio Setup. OMS-compatible applications will commonly recognize the new
configuration.
You can have different Studio Setups to choose one from,to switch to a different MIDI
routing (patches between MIDI devices and software) fast and easily.
Every time the OMS Setup application is opened, any MIDI device connected to the
computer is automatically detected, and its icon appears with a current MIDI status
(channel number, port number, patches, etc.). Once devices are configured with OMS
Setup, however, you need not care too much about the status.
OMS can drive various MIDI interfaces, including the standard type (16 channels) and the
multi-port type (16 channels per port). If you use a multi-port type, you can control over 16
channels simultaneously via OMS.
n For more information about OMS features, see the READ ME file included with OMS.
Setting up OMS
Setup files for the CS6x, CS6R , S80 and S30 have already been created for use with Voice
Editor; please use the appropriate file for your device. The following example is for the CS6x.
1. First, interconnect the “TO HOST” terminal of the CS6x and the Macintosh serial port, then
set the “Host Select” switch of the CS6x to “Mac.”
2. Double-click the “OMS Setup” icon in the “OMS Application” folder.
3. Choose “Open” from the “File” menu and select “CS6x-Modem” from within the “OMS
setup for YAMAHA” folder.
n If you are using a computer with no modem port (such as the Performa series), look in the “CS6x-
Printer” folder instead.
4. Choose “Make Current” from the “File” menu. The setup for your CS6x is now saved as the
current studio setup.
5. Choose “Quit” from the “File” menu to close OMS Setup.
n Voice Editor is not compatible with versions of OMS earlier than 2.0.
27
OMS Port Setup
Having set up OMS, you now need to start up Voice Editor and set the OMS ports.
1. First, start up Voice Editor by double-clicking its icon.
n If AppleTalk is enabled, you will get an alert message. Click “OFF.” It will take some time for
AppleTalk to be disabled.
2. Choose “OMS Port Setup” from Voice Editor’s “MIDI” menu, then select the port settings. In
the following example, the tone generator is a CS6x and its settings are applied to OMS.
Key Thru: Check this if you are monitoring a sound generator module using an
external keyboard.
MIDI In: Select “CS6x.”
MIDI Out: Select “CS6x.”
3. Click [OK] to close OMS Port Setup.

An Example of Voice Editor in Use
There is no single way in which to use the many components in Voice Editor. Although your editing
needs may differ, in any case, the following gives a step-by-step example of how to use Voice
Editor. The Library Window is the first window to open, so that’s where the explanation begins.
n In the Library Window, you can open existing Library files containing the Voices you wish to edit, and
specific voices can be imported to the Library Window.
1. Click the “Editor Setup” button in the toolbar of the Library Window to open the “Editor
Setup” dialog. Then select the appropriate MIDI Out Port and Device No. settings for your
CS6x/CS6R/S80/S30 synthesizer (See the section “Editor Setup” Dialog).
n If you are using a Macintosh, you will also need to make settings in OMS (Page 27).
2. Open the Library file. In the Voice List of the Library Window, double-click the voice you
wish to edit. The Edit Window will open for the voice.
3. Various units are arranged in the Edit Window. First, let’s set the parameters for Elements 1
to 4 on the Element Unit which make up the voice. Open the dialogs for Elements 1 to 4,
select the waveforms, and adjust the tonal characteristics of the voice using the filters and
equalizers. You can use the graph editors in each dialog to visually edit the parameters.
n You can edit the Element parameters in much finer detail within the “EL DETAIL” dialogs. The
Element dialogs are linked to the “EL DETAIL” dialogs, so changes in one dialog are immediately
reflected in the other. You can simultaneously view the graphs and the “EL DETAIL” dialogs side-
by-side while editing.
n Also within the Element Unit, you can set the output level for each Element and the route their
outputs through Insertion Effects 1/2.
4. Use the Volume/Sound Control knobs to adjust the all the levels and tonal characteristics
for the voices.
n You can open the “Quick Edit/Scene Control” dialog from the Edit Window, where you can edit the
parameters in much finer detail. The knobs in the Edit Windows are linked to the parameters in the
“Quick Edit/Scene Control” dialog, so changes in either are immediately reflected in the other.
n By clicking or dragging on the buttons of the keyboard at the bottom of the window, you can
monitor the voice you are editing.
n By enabling the “Compare” switch in the toolbar, you can make A/B comparisons between the
original voice and the edited voice.
5. Select the Insertion Effect Type in the Insertion 1/2 Unit and set the remaining parameters.
6. Select the System Effect Type in the Reverb/Chorus Unit and set the remaining parameters.
7. Set the Arpeggio and Portamento parameters if necessary.
8. Click the “Store” button in the toolbar of the Edit Window to open the “Store” dialog. This
will store the edits for the current voice in the Library file.
n The edits for the voice are only stored in the Library file temporarily. Beware that if you proceed
further without saving the Library file itself, you will lose all your edits.
9. Switch back to the Library Window and click the “Save” button in the toolbar to save
(overwrite) the Library file. The edits for your voice will be saved with the voice itself in the
designated voice list location.
n The Library file you have saved can be opened in the Library Window at any time. Voices in the
Library Window can be transmitted to your CS6x/CS6R/S80/S30 synthesizer.
n You can create a variety of different Library files, each tailored for live performances, recording, etc.
Thus, you can conveniently modify voices to suit different situations and needs.

To use the Voice Editor software, OMS must be installed beforehand. n For information about installing OMS, refer to the separate Installation Guide. About OMS Voice Editor uses the OMS (Open Music System) to transfer MIDI data to an external MIDI device. OMS is a system extension that goes in the Mac OS System folder, designed to manage the MIDI data stream (input & output) in a computer, to enable MIDI data transfer between MIDI software and hardware attached to the computer. OMS is a de facto standard of the MIDI environment under the Mac OS, and various music software manufacturers have released OMS-compatible sequencer and other software. OMS has the following merits: • As OMS-compatible MIDI applications communicate with various MIDI devices via OMS, it is no longer necessary for you to set up multiple MIDI drivers for those applications. Thus, you can avoid conflicts between different drivers with the same purpose (MIDI control). • Once a Studio Setup is read in OMS, any OMS-compatible application will be aware of it, even if you need to reconfigure the routing of the MIDI data stream or change the current Studio Setup. OMS-compatible applications will commonly recognize the new configuration. • You can have different Studio Setups to choose one from,to switch to a different MIDI routing (patches between MIDI devices and software) fast and easily. • Every time the OMS Setup application is opened, any MIDI device connected to the computer is automatically detected, and its icon appears with a current MIDI status (channel number, port number, patches, etc.). Once devices are configured with OMS Setup, however, you need not care too much about the status. • OMS can drive various MIDI interfaces, including the standard type (16 channels) and the multi-port type (16 channels per port). If you use a multi-port type, you can control over 16 channels simultaneously via OMS. n For more information about OMS features, see the READ ME file included with OMS. Setting up OMS Setup files for the CS6x, CS6R , S80 and S30 have already been created for use with Voice Editor; please use the appropriate file for your device. The following example is for the CS6x. 1. First, interconnect the “TO HOST” terminal of the CS6x and the Macintosh serial port, then set the “Host Select” switch of the CS6x to “Mac.” 2. Double-click the “OMS Setup” icon in the “OMS Application” folder. 3. Choose “Open” from the “File” menu and select “CS6x-Modem” from within the “OMS setup for YAMAHA” folder. n If you are using a computer with no modem port (such as the Performa series), look in the “CS6xPrinter” folder instead. 4. Choose “Make Current” from the “File” menu. The setup for your CS6x is now saved as the current studio setup. 5. Choose “Quit” from the “File” menu to close OMS Setup. n Voice Editor is not compatible with versions of OMS earlier than 2.0. 27 OMS Port Setup Having set up OMS, you now need to start up Voice Editor and set the OMS ports. 1. First, start up Voice Editor by double-clicking its icon. n If AppleTalk is enabled, you will get an alert message. Click “OFF.” It will take some time for AppleTalk to be disabled. 2. Choose “OMS Port Setup” from Voice Editor’s “MIDI” menu, then select the port settings. In the following example, the tone generator is a CS6x and its settings are applied to OMS. Key Thru: Check this if you are monitoring a sound generator module using an external keyboard. MIDI In: Select “CS6x.” MIDI Out: Select “CS6x.” 3. Click [OK] to close OMS Port Setup. 28 An Example of Voice Editor in Use There is no single way in which to use the many components in Voice Editor. Although your editing needs may differ, in any case, the following gives a step-by-step example of how to use Voice Editor. The Library Window is the first window to open, so that’s where the explanation begins. n In the Library Window, you can open existing Library files containing the Voices you wish to edit, and specific voices can be imported to the Library Window. 1. Click the “Editor Setup” button in the toolbar of the Library Window to open the “Editor Setup” dialog. Then select the appropriate MIDI Out Port and Device No. settings for your CS6x/CS6R/S80/S30 synthesizer (See the section “Editor Setup” Dialog). n If you are using a Macintosh, you will also need to make settings in OMS (Page 27). 2. Open the Library file. In the Voice List of the Library Window, double-click the voice you wish to edit. The Edit Window will open for the voice. 3. Various units are arranged in the Edit Window. First, let’s set the parameters for Elements 1 to 4 on the Element Unit which make up the voice. Open the dialogs for Elements 1 to 4, select the waveforms, and adjust the tonal characteristics of the voice using the filters and equalizers. You can use the graph editors in each dialog to visually edit the parameters. n You can edit the Element parameters in much finer detail within the “EL DETAIL” dialogs. The Element dialogs are linked to the “EL DETAIL” dialogs, so changes in one dialog are immediately reflected in the other. You can simultaneously view the graphs and the “EL DETAIL” dialogs sideby-side while editing. n Also within the Element Unit, you can set the output level for each Element and the route their outputs through Insertion Effects 1/2. 4. Use the Volume/Sound Control knobs to adjust the all the levels and tonal characteristics for the voices. n You can open the “Quick Edit/Scene Control” dialog from the Edit Window, where you can edit the parameters in much finer detail. The knobs in the Edit Windows are linked to the parameters in the “Quick Edit/Scene Control” dialog, so changes in either are immediately reflected in the other. n By clicking or dragging on the buttons of the keyboard at the bottom of the window, you can monitor the voice you are editing. n By enabling the “Compare” switch in the toolbar, you can make A/B comparisons between the original voice and the edited voice. 5. Select the Insertion Effect Type in the Insertion 1/2 Unit and set the remaining parameters. 6. Select the System Effect Type in the Reverb/Chorus Unit and set the remaining parameters. 7. Set the Arpeggio and Portamento parameters if necessary. 8. Click the “Store” button in the toolbar of the Edit Window to open the “Store” dialog. This will store the edits for the current voice in the Library file. n The edits for the voice are only stored in the Library file temporarily. Beware that if you proceed further without saving the Library file itself, you will lose all your edits. 9. Switch back to the Library Window and click the “Save” button in the toolbar to save (overwrite) the Library file. The edits for your voice will be saved with the voice itself in the designated voice list location. n The Library file you have saved can be opened in the Library Window at any time. Voices in the Library Window can be transmitted to your CS6x/CS6R/S80/S30 synthesizer. n You can create a variety of different Library files, each tailored for live performances, recording, etc. Thus, you can conveniently modify voices to suit different situations and needs. 29 Troubleshooting If you encounter problems such as no sound output or abnormal behavior, verify the connections before checking the following. If you are using Voice Editor for Windows, refer to the XGworks(lite) owner's manual too. <Macintosh> <Windows> The printer port is not recognized. • The printer port will not be recognized if AppleTalk is ON. Note that with some Macintosh models, AppleTalk is automatically enabled when starting up. Voice Editor is not available in the Plug-in menu. • Is the Voice Editor installed in the same folder as XGworks(lite)? If not, reinstall Voice Editor. • Bulk data is not received. • Is the MIDI In set correctly in the System Setup of XGworks? Verify that the “Printer” checkbox has been checked in the OMS MIDI Setup window. • The modem port is not recognized. • On some Macintosh models such as the Performa series, the modem port cannot be used and only the printer port is available. • MIDI Out port is not available in Editor Setup. • The MIDI Out port in Editor Setup can be chosen from the MIDI Out ports in the System Setup of XGworks(lite). Check the MIDI Out settings in the System Setup of XGworks(lite). Verify that the “Modem” checkbox has been checked in the OMS MIDI Setup window. No MIDI In/Out data Is the MIDI device’s HOST SELECT switch set correctly? • Make the correct setting according to the instructions in the CS6x/CS6R/S80/S30 Owner's Manual. • • • <Windows / Macintosh> Sound does not change when using knobs or sliders. • Are the MIDI Out port and Device Number set correctly in the Editor Setup? (Page 10) In the OMS Port Setup, is MIDI In/Out set to “unknown”? If you change the OMS ports or setup, the OMS output ports have to be set accordingly in Voice Editor's OMS Port Setup window. Choose the appropriate receiving device. Bulk data is not transmitted. • Are the MIDI Out port and Device Number set correctly in the Editor Setup?
