PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical
shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/Power cord
Water warning
• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage
is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have
accumulated on it.
• Use only the supplied power cord/plug.
• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and
do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on
it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything
over it.
• Be sure to connect to an appropriate outlet with a protective grounding
connection. Improper grounding can result in electrical shock.
• Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet
conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill into
any openings. If any liquid such as water seeps into the instrument, turn off the
power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the
instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
Fire warning
• Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit.
A burning item may fall over and cause a fire.
If you notice any abnormality
Do not open
• Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or
modify them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. If it
should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it
inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
• If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a sudden
loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual smells or smoke
should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch,
disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected
by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage
to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/Power cord
Location
• Always connect the three-pin attachment plug to a properly grounded power
source. (For more information about the main power supply, see page 16.)
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold
the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.
• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used
for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector.
Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the
outlet.
• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or
heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to
prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal
components.
• Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile
phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may
generate noise.
• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally
fall over.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is
easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off
the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power
switch is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum
level. When you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug
the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

Connections
Saving data
• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the
power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components,
set all volume levels to minimum. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all
components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls
while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.
Saving and backing up your data
• DRAM data (refer to the Reference Manual <separate PDF documentation>) is
lost when you turn off the power to the instrument. Save the data to the flash
ROM/the internal flash memory (see page 47)/a USB storage device/external
device such as a computer.
Data stored to the flash ROM may be lost due to malfunction or incorrect
operation. Save important data to a USB storage device/external device such as
a computer.
Maintenance
• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners,
solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
Handling caution
• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel
or keyboard. If this happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the
power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified
Yamaha service personnel.
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might
discolor the panel or keyboard.
• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not
use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
• Never attempt to turn off the power while data is being written to Flash ROM
(while an “Executing...” or “Please keep power on” message is shown). Turning
the power off in this state results in loss of all user data and may cause the
system to freeze (due to corruption of data in the Flash ROM). This means that
this synthesizer may not be able to start up properly, even when turning the
power on next time.
Backing up the USB storage device/external media
• To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that you
save your important data onto two USB storage devices/external media.
• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long period of time at a
high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing
loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a
physician.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Welcome
A message from the S90 XS/S70 XS Development Team
Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha S90 XS/S70 XS Music Synthesizer.
We’re extremely proud to introduce the new S90 XS/S70 XS as the successor to the original S90 ES. Equipped with
exceptionally high-quality musical instrument sounds and a real piano-feel response, this is truly the instrument of choice
for musicians and players worldwide, whatever the genre. Drawing on our long experience cultivated through years of
synthesizer development, we designed this model not only for top professional musicians, but also for casual players
and hobby musicians who want to have a greater level of high-quality sound, playability and advanced features—
especially in live performance applications. To complete this lineup, we've added the S70 XS, a 76-key model which
maintains the same keyboard touch as the 88-key model, yet provides the added value of portability.
The advanced and convenient features of the S90 XS/S70 XS do not stop there. The Remote Control functions and the
Master Keyboard features have been enhanced and made more powerful to meet the demands of professional music
production. We are proud and confident that the S90 XS/S70 XS can aid in your music making, and we're sure that it will
be your first ‘go-to’ instrument in music situation, live performance, recording and so on.
In order to take full advantage of the S90 XS/S70 XS’s functionality, please read this manual carefully. We also
recommend that you keep this manual in a safe and handy place for future reference.
We really hope that the S90 XS/S70 XS will help your creativity and musical work grow by leaps and bounds.
Enjoy!
Sincerely,
The Yamaha S90 XS/S70 XS Development Team

The buttons, Knobs and Sliders are well designed and logically placed for optimum, intuitive operation, especially in
live performance. For example, you can quickly select a Part, use the Part switch to turn it on/off, set the Arpeggio
switch on/off, switch Arpeggio Hold on/off—all with the top panel controls—and edit important parameters via the
Knobs and Sliders. A convenient Panel Lock function, which prevents unintended changes during performance, and
a Tap Tempo function for the Arpeggio are also available on the top panel.
Audio Rec/Play Function
You can record your performance to a USB storage device or internal flash memory as a wave file, or you can play
back audio files which have been created on DAW software. You can also play the keyboard along with audio file
playback via the Audio Rec/Play function.
DAW Remote Function
The S90 XS/S70 XS features a DAW Remote function for music production convenience. This allows you to store 50
different control templates and have easy, intuitive control over your main DAW software and VST instruments directly
from the panel controls of the S90 XS/S70 XS.
Voice Editor and Remote Editor for Detailed Editing
When using Cubase series software compatible with VST3 technology, the S90 XS/S70 XS Editor VST can be
conveniently used in the same manner as software VST instruments for editing the detailed parameters. When using

Basic Instructions
Voices—the basic building blocks of the S90 XS/S70 XS
Voices—created in the Voice mode—are the basic sonic building blocks for the other modes of this instrument. The
Performance and Multi programs are made up of different Voices.
This instrument features an exceptionally wide variety of preset Voices for playing in virtually any musical style. Try searching
through the Voices to find your favorites. Once you’ve explored them and feel comfortable with them, try branching out
creatively and use the editing features to make your own original Voices.

GM Voice
GM (General MIDI) is a worldwide standard for Voice
organization and MIDI functions of synthesizers and tone
generators. It was designed primarily to ensure that any
song data created with a specific GM device would sound
virtually the same on any other GM device—no matter the
manufacturer or the model. The GM Voice bank on this
synthesizer is designed to appropriately play back GM
song data. However, keep in mind that the sound may not
be exactly the same as played by the original tone
generator.
In the Voice mode, a total of 16 Banks (Preset Bank 1 – 8,
User Bank 1 – 4, GM Bank, Preset Drum Bank, User
Drum, GM Drum Bank) are available. Each of these Banks

Precautions when using the USB TO HOST
terminal
You must observe the following points when connecting
the S90 XS/S70 XS to your computer via the USB TO HOST
connector.
Failure to do so can cause the instrument and/or the
computer to hang up (freeze), possibly causing corruption
or loss of data. If the computer or S90 XS/S70 XS freezes,
turn the power to the S90 XS/S70 XS off and then on, then
restart the computer.
• Before connecting the computer to the USB TO HOST
terminal, exit from any power-saving mode of the
computer (such as suspended, sleep, standby).
• Before turning on the power to the instrument, connect
the computer to the USB TO HOST connector.
• Execute the following before turning the power to the
instrument on/off or plugging/unplugging the USB cable
to/from the USB connector.
• Quit any open applications (such as S90 XS/S70 XS
Editor and sequencer software).
• Make sure that data is not being transmitted from the
instrument. (Data is transmitted only by playing notes
on the keyboard or playing back a song.)
• Leave an interval of at least six seconds between
powering the S90 XS/S70 XS on and off, or between
disconnecting and connecting the USB cable.
MIDI channels and MIDI ports
MIDI data is assigned to one of sixteen channels, and this
synthesizer is capable of simultaneously playing sixteen
separate Parts, via the sixteen MIDI channels. However,
the sixteen-channel limit can be overcome by using
separate MIDI “ports,” each supporting sixteen channels.
While a single MIDI cable is equipped to handle data over
up to sixteen channels simultaneously, a USB connection
is capable of handling far more—thanks to the use of MIDI
ports. Each MIDI port can handle sixteen channels, and
the USB connection allows up to eight ports, letting you
use up to 128 channels (8 ports x 16 channels) on your
computer. When connecting this instrument to a computer
using a USB cable, the MIDI ports are defined as follows:
Port 1
The tone generator block in this instrument can recognize
and use only this port. When playing the S90 XS/S70 XS as
a tone generator from the external MIDI instrument or
computer, you should set the MIDI Port to 1 on the
connected MIDI device or computer.
Port 2
This port is used to control the DAW software on the
computer from the S90 XS/S70 XS by using the Remote
Control feature.
Port 3
This port is used as the MIDI Thru Port.
The MIDI data received over Port 3 via the USB TO HOST
terminal will be re-transmitted to an external MIDI device
via the MIDI OUT terminal. The MIDI data received over
Port 3 via the MIDI IN terminal will be re-transmitted to an
external device (computer, etc.) via the USB TO HOST
terminal.
Port 4
This port is used only for data communication of the S90
XS/S70 XS Editor. No other software or device can use this
port.
Port 5
This port is used only for data communication of the S90
XS/S70 XS Remote Editor. No other software or device can
use this port.
When using a USB connection, make sure to match the
MIDI transmit port and the MIDI receive port as well as the
MIDI transmit channel and the MIDI receive channel. Make
sure to set the MIDI port of the external device connected
to this instrument according to the above information.

Using a Connected Computer
Using as a multi-timbral
tone generator (Multi mode)
Remote-controlling the
software (Remote mode)
The instructions below show how to use this instrument
as a MIDI tone generator. In this case, actual MIDI
sequence data is transmitted from a DAW or sequencer
on the computer, allowing you to avoid using software
synths and save processing power on your computer.
The S90 XS/S70 XS features a highly convenient Remote
mode which lets you control the DAW software and
software synthesizer on your computer via the panel
operations of the S90 XS/S70 XS. For example, you can
start/stop playback of the DAW software on the computer
by using the Function buttons and control the song
position on the DAW software by using the data dial,

or
USB TO DEVICE terminal
S90 XS/S70 XS
Compatible USB devices
Connect only a USB storage device (such as hard disk,
CD-ROM, flash memory and other drives) to the USB TO
DEVICE connector. Other USB devices such as a
computer keyboard or mouse cannot be used. Both buspowered (powered by the host device) or self-powered
(battery or external power supply) types can be used.
Before purchasing USB storage devices, please consult
your Yamaha dealer, or an authorized Yamaha distributor
(see list at end of the Owner’s Manual) for advice, or see
the following web page:
http://www.yamahasynth.com/
NOTE Although CD-R/RW drives can be used to load data to the
instrument, they cannot be used for saving data. However, you
can transfer the data to a computer and save it to a CD using the
CD-R/RW drive on the computer.
Formatting USB storage media
When an unformatted USB storage device is connected
to the USB TO DEVICE connector or when unformatted
media is inserted to the USB device connected to the
USB TO DEVICE connector, the indication “unformatted
device (usb***)” is shown in the device list on the Save/
Load display of the File mode. If this happens, execute
the Format operation in the File Job display.
NOTE The three asterisks (***) in the example indication above denote
the sequential serial numbers of the connected devices which
need to be formatted. When several partitions are included in a
single device, the partition number is indicated at the right of the
serial number.
Precautions when using the USB TO
DEVICE terminal
Please keep in mind the following points:
CAUTION
Never turn the USB device’s power on/off and never plug/
unplug the USB cable when the connected USB storage device
is the self-powered type. Doing so may result in the operation
of the synthesizer “freezing” or hanging up. While the
instrument is accessing data (such as in the Save, Load and
Delete operations in the File mode), do NOT unplug the USB
cable, do NOT remove the media from the device, and do NOT
turn the power off to either device. Doing so may corrupt the
data on either or both devices.
