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:
• 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.
• 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 place the instrument in an unstable position where it might
accidentally fall over.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent
damage to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.
• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on
the panel or keyboard. This could cause physical injury to you or
others, damage to the instrument or other property, or operational
failure.
• 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.
• 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.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.
Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (display is off), electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level.
When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

NOTICE
To avoid the possibility of malfunction/ damage to the product, damage to data, or damage to other property, follow the notices below.
Handling
• 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.
When you use the instrument along with an application on your smart device
such as a smartphone or tablet, we recommend that you set Wi-Fi or Bluetooth to
on after setting “Airplane Mode” to on on that device in order to avoid noise
caused by communication.
• 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, damage to the internal components or
unstable operation. (Verified operating temperature range: 5° – 40°C, or 41° –
104°F.)
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might
discolor the panel or keyboard.
Maintenance
• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft cloth. Do not use paint thinners,
solvents, alcohol, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
Saving data
• Edited Song/Style/Voice/MIDI setup data, etc. are lost when you turn off the power to
the instrument without saving. This also occurs when the power is turned off by the
Auto Power Off function (page 21). Save the data to the instrument, or to USB flash
drive/an external device such as a computer (page 33). Saving the data to USB flash
drive/an external device is even more secure, since the data in the instrument may be
lost due to some failure, an operation mistake, etc. Before using a USB flash drive,
make sure to refer to page 107.
• To protect against data loss through USB flash drive damage, we recommend that
you save your important data onto spare USB flash drive or an external device
such as a computer as backup data.

PSR-SX900/SX700 Owner’s Manual 7
Main Features
Main Features
Replacing the hugely successful PSR-S series, the PSR-SX900/SX700 are the new generation in Digital Worksta-
tion sound, design and user experience. Whether you’re a professional musician or a hobbyist, these instruments
will inspire and intensify your musical performance and enjoyment.
Extraordinarily expressive and realistic Voices
The PSR-SX900/SX700 has a comprehensive and sonically stunning set of authentic Voices, and gives you the tools to play these
Voices more naturally and with greater expressiveness.
Accompaniment Styles
The Styles of the PSR-SX900/SX700 provide full instrumental accompaniments making it possible to perform in a wide variety of
music genres, just by playing chords.
LIVE CONTROL knobs and Assignable buttons—Customize your controllers
The two LIVE CONTROL knobs let you intuitively control your performance in real-time. A wide variety of functions can be
assigned to the knobs, so you can easily add variations to the sound during your performance. The Assignable buttons let you set
your favorite functions and shortcuts for a more personalized operation.
Chord Looper—Your virtual left hand (PSR-SX900)
Chord Looper enables you to record a chord sequence and play it back, freeing your left hand from playing chords and providing
new opportunities to further enhance your performance.
Quick and easy set up with Playlist and Registration
Playlist is the new way to quickly setup the instrument, no matter how large your repertoire is. Organize your Registration Memo-
ries into convenient Playlists for instant recall during performance.
Voice and Style expandability with the Yamaha Expansion Manager
With Yamaha Expansion Manager software on your computer, you can continually expand the onboard content of the instrument
by creating and installing your own custom and purchased Packs. Supporting WAV, AIFF, SoundFont and even REX format, for
handling audio slices, the scope of possibilities for new sounds and styles is virtually unlimited.
Audio Function
Audio files (WAV or MP3 format) can be played back on the instrument. You can also record your performance as audio files
(WAV or MP3 format) to the internal User drive or a USB flash drive directly. The instrument also provides a variety of advanced,
convenient audio playback and processing functions, including Time Stretch, which lets you slow down or speed up an audio file
without changing the pitch, and Pitch Shift, which allows you to change the pitch without affecting the time. The Vocal Cancel
function significantly reduces the volume of vocals in an audio file, allowing you to sing “karaoke” style with just the instrumental
backing. Audio files can also be assigned to Multi Pads and played back during performance, the creative potential is huge.
Compatible formats for the instrument
GM (General MIDI) is one of the most common Voice allocation formats. GM System Level 2 is a standard specifica-
tion that enhances the original GM format and improves Song data compatibility. It provides for increased polyphony,
greater Voice selection, expanded Voice parameters, and integrated effect processing.
XG is a major enhancement of the GM System Level 1 format, and was developed by Yamaha specifically to provide
more Voices and variations, as well as greater expressive control over Voices and effects, and to ensure compatibility
of data well into the future.
GS was developed by the Roland Corporation. In the same way as Yamaha XG, GS is a major enhancement of the GM
specifically to provide more Voices and Drum kits and their variations, as well as greater expressive control over
Voices and effects.
The Yamaha XF format enhances the SMF (Standard MIDI File) standard with greater functionality and open-ended
expandability for the future. This instrument is capable of displaying lyrics when an XF file containing lyric data is
played.
SFF (Style File Format) is an original Style file format by Yamaha which uses a unique conversion system to provide
high-quality automatic accompaniment based on a wide range of chord types. SFF GE (Guitar Edition) is an enhanced
format of SFF, which features improved note transposition for guitar tracks.

Key Functions and Terms
This section briefly explains the key functions of this instrument, to help you better understand the overall capa-
bilities.
Styles—Rhythm and Auto Accompaniment—
The PSR-SX900/SX700 features a variety of accompaniment and rhythmic backing patterns (called “Styles”) in a variety
of different musical genres including pop, jazz, and many others. Styles feature sophisticated Auto Accompaniment pat-
terns, letting you produce automatic accompaniment playback simply by playing chords with your left hand. This lets you
automatically recreate the sound of a full band or orchestra—even if you’re playing by yourself.
Voices—Individual sounds of the instrument—
The PSR-SX900/SX700 features a wide variety of exceptionally realistic instrumental Voices, including piano, guitar,
strings, brass, wind instruments and more. The Voices can be played manually on the keyboard, and they are also used by
the Styles, MIDI Songs, and Multi Pads.
Multi Pads—Adding musical phrases to your performance—
The Multi Pads can be used to play a number of short pre-recorded rhythmic and melodic sequences that can be used to add
impact and variety to your keyboard performances. Multi Pads are grouped in Banks of four phrases each. This instrument
features a variety of Multi Pad Banks in a variety of different musical genres. Moreover, the Audio Link Multi Pad function
allows you to create unique, new pad content with your own audio (WAV) data for playing back during your performance.
Songs—Playing back MIDI/audio files—
For this instrument, the term “Song” refers to MIDI or audio data, such as preset songs, commercially available files, etc.
Not only can you play back a Song and listen to it, but you can also play the keyboard along with Song playback.
Song playback features two modes: Song Player mode and Song List mode.
• Song Player: Plays back two Songs (one MIDI Song and one Audio Song) simultaneously and allows for a smooth tran-
sition between the two.
• Song List: Plays back Songs continuously according to a previously created Song List.
Mic/Guitar Connections—Sing/play along with the keyboard performance—
By connecting a microphone to the MIC/GUITAR [INPUT] jack (standard 1/4” phone plug connector), you can enjoy
singing along with your keyboard performance or with Song playback. The instrument outputs your vocals through the
connected speaker system.
Moreover, the PSR-SX900 features an Vocal Harmony/Synth Vocoder function. You can automatically apply various Vocal
Harmony effects to your voice as you sing, or use the Synth Vocoder feature to graft the unique characteristics of your
voice onto synthesizer and other sounds.
Both the PSR-SX900 and PSR-SX700 let you connect an electric guitar, and you can even use powerful DSP effects to pro-
cess the guitar sound instead, and play that along with the keyboard sounds.
Keyboard Parts
There are four keyboard parts for your manual performance: LEFT, RIGHT 1, 2 and 3. Each part has one Voice. You can combine
these parts by using the PART ON/OFF buttons to create luscious instrument textures and convenient performance combinations.
You can change the keyboard range of the Parts by changing the Split Point.

Playing with Styles—Setting Up
This section gives you basic steps on how to enhance your keyboard performance with Styles (Rhythm and Auto
Accompaniment). Go through the various instructions below to completely set up your performance of a single
song: Style, Keyboard Part (Voice), Multi Pad, and various types of controllers.
The settings made in this section can be collectively stored in the Registration Memory as one song setting
(page 86).
Selecting the desired Style and turning Auto Accompaniment (ACMP) on
1 Press one of the STYLE category selection buttons to call up the
Style Selection display.
2 Touch the desired Style.
For example, touch the category [Dance], and then [Dubstep].
3 Press the STYLE CONTROL [ACMP] button to turn on the Auto
Accompaniment.
When the button is turned on, both the rhythm part and auto accompaniment can be
played back during Style playback.
At the same time, the specific left-hand section of the keyboard can be used as the
Chord section, and chords played in this section are automatically detected and
used as a basis for fully automatic accompaniment with the selected Style.
Setting up Styles
You can also call up the Style Selection
display via the Home display (page 26).
NOTE
• Expansion Styles
Styles additionally installed (page 97). By
default, Expansion Styles specially pro-
vided for playing music suitable in your
area are installed.
• User Styles

tion (refer to the Reference Manual on the
website), or Styles copied to the User drive
(page 34).

4 If necessary, try out the selected Style.
Press the STYLE CONTROL [ ] (SYNC START) button, then play chords with
your left hand.
To stop Style Playback, press the STYLE CONTROL [ ] (START/STOP) but-
ton.
A Style generally consists of eight parts (channels): rhythm, bass, etc. You can add variations and change the feeling of a
Style by selectively turning channels on/off or by changing the Voices (page 82).
For more details on operating Style
playback, refer to page 58.
NOTE
Style Characteristics
The particular type of Style is indicated the upper left of the Style name in the Style Selection display. The defining
characteristics of these Styles and their performance advantages are described below.
• Session: These Styles provide even greater realism and authentic backing by mixing in original chord types and
changes, as well as special riffs with chord changes, with the Main sections. These have been programmed to add
“spice” and a professional touch to your performances of certain songs and in certain genres. Keep in mind, how-
ever, that the Styles may not necessarily be appropriate—or even harmonically correct—for all songs and for all
chord playing. In some cases for example, playing a simple major triad for a country song may result in a “jazzy”
seventh chord, or playing an on-bass chord may result in inappropriate or unexpected accompaniment.
• Free Play: These Styles are characterized by rubato performance. You can perform freely with remarkably expres-
sive accompaniment, without being constrained by a strict tempo.
• DJ: These contain their own special chord progressions, so you can add chord changes to your performance simply
by changing the root key. The Multi Pad (page 53) data in the “DJ Phrase” category are specially created for these
Styles. You can call up the suitable Multi Pads by using the One Touch Setting function (page 43).
For the Preset Style List, refer to the Data List on the website.
Style File Compatibility
This instrument uses the SFF GE file format (page 7) and can play back existing SFF files; however, they will be saved
in the SFF GE format when the file is saved (or loaded) in this instrument. Keep in mind that the saved file can only be
played back on instruments that are compatible with the SFF GE format.
You cannot specify the chord type, such as major and minor, when using the DJ Styles.
NOTE
42 PSR-SX900/SX700 Owner’s Manual
Adjusting the tempo
The TEMPO [-] and [+] buttons let you change the playback tempo of the Metronome,
Style and MIDI Song. The tempo of the Style and MIDI Song can also be adjusted via the
[RESET/TAP TEMPO] button.
TEMPO [-]/[+] buttons
Press the TEMPO [-] or [+] button to call up the Tempo pop-up display. Use the TEMPO
[-]/[+] buttons to decrease or increase the tempo over a range of 5–500 beats per minute.
Holding down either button changes the value continuously. Pressing both TEMPO [-] and
[+] buttons calls up the default tempo of the last selected Style or Song.
[RESET/TAP TEMPO] button
When Style and MIDI Song are stopped, tapping the [RESET/TAP TEMPO] button (four
times for a 4/4 time signature) starts playback of the rhythm part of the Style at the tempo
you tapped.
During playback of a MIDI Song, you can change the tempo by tapping the [RESET/TAP
TEMPO] button twice at the desired tempo.
During playback of a Style, you can rewind to the top of the section (“reset” the playback
position, for stutter repeat effects) by tapping the [RESET/TAP TEMPO] button. This is
called as “Style Section Reset.”
Changing the Chord Fingering type
By changing the Chord Fingering type, you can automatically produce appropriate accompaniment even if you don’t press
all of the notes which comprise a chord. Chord fingering type can be changed via the Split Point/Fingering window:
[MENU] [Split & Fingering].
The following types can be selected, for example.
Single Finger
This method lets you easily play chords in the accompaniment range of the keyboard using only one, two or three fingers.
Fingered
This lets you finger your own chords on the chord section of the keyboard, while the instrument supplies appropriately
orchestrated rhythm, bass, and chord accompaniment in the selected Style. The Fingered type recognizes the various chord
types which are listed on the Data List on the website (page 9), and can be looked up using the Chord Tutor function called
up via [MENU] [Chord Tutor].
AI Full Keyboard
This lets you play just about anything, anywhere on the keyboard using both hands—like
conventional playing of a piano—and still have appropriate accompaniment. You don’t
have to worry about specific ways to play/indicate the chords. (Depending on the song
arrangement, AI Full Keyboard may not always produce appropriate accompaniment.)
For other types, refer to the Reference Manual on the website (page 9).
If you want to adjust the tempo of an
Audio Song, use the Time Stretch func-
tion on page 74.
NOTE
You can set the behavior to change the
tempo instead of “reset” of the section,
even when tapping the button during
playback of a Style. The setting is made
on the display called up via [MENU]
[Metronome] [Tap Tempo]. For
details, refer to the Reference Manual
on the website.
NOTE
Major chord
Press the root key only.
Minor chord
Simultaneously press the root
key and a black key to its left.
Seventh chord
Simultaneously press the
root key and a white key to
its left.
Minor seventh chord
Simultaneously press the
root key and both a white and
black key to its left.
When the chord detection area is set to
“Upper” (page 47), only “Fingered*”is
available.
NOTE
In the case of a specific fingering type (Fingered, Fingered on base, AI Fingered), you can create a state in which no chord is input by entering a special chord named “Cancel.”
This is called as “Chord Cancel.” For more information on entering chords including “Cancel,” refer to the “Chord Types Recognized in the Fingered Mode” in the Reference
Manual on the website.

Playing with Styles—Operations While
Performing
If you’ve made all desired settings for a single song (in the previous sections), now you’re ready to play the key-
board. This section mainly explains the various Style-related operations you’ll use during your keyboard perfor-
mance: Style playback, applying expressive effects, and Multi Pad playback.
Starting and stopping Style playback
[START/STOP] button
Starts playback of the rhythm part of the current Style. To stop playback, press the button
again.
[SYNC START] button
This puts the Style playback in “standby.” The Style starts playing back when you press any
note on the keyboard (when [ACMP] is off) or you play a chord with your left hand (when
[ACMP] is on). While a Style is playing back, pressing this button stops the Style and puts
playback in standby.
[SYNC STOP] button
You can start and stop the Style any time you want by simply playing or releasing the keys
in the chord section of the keyboard. Make sure that the [ACMP] button is on, press the
[SYNC STOP] button, and then play the keyboard.
INTRO [I]–[III] buttons
The instrument features three different Intro sections that let you add an introduction before
starting the Style playback. After pressing one of the INTRO [I]–[III] buttons, start play-
back of the Style. When the Intro finishes playing, the Style playback automatically shifts
to the Main section.
ENDING/rit. [I]–[III] buttons
The instrument features three different Ending sections that let you add an ending before
stopping Style playback. When you press one of the ENDING [I]–[III] buttons while Style
is playing back, the Style will automatically stop after the ending is played. You can have
the ending gradually slow down (ritardando) by pressing the same ENDING button once
again, while the ending is playing.
Operating Style Playback
Playing back both rhythm and auto accompaniment (ACMP)
If the [ACMP] button is turned on, both the rhythm part and auto accompaniment can be
played back when playing chords in the chord section during Style playback.
When the Fingering type (page 42) is
set to “Full Keyboard” or “AI Full Key-
board,” Sync Stop cannot be turned on.

Playing with Styles—Operations While Performing
Changing pattern variations (Sections) during Style playback
Each Style features four different Main sections, four Fill-in sections and a Break section.
By using these sections effectively, you can easily make your performance sound more
dynamic and professional. The section can be freely changed while the Style is playing
back.
MAIN VARIATION [A]–[D] buttons
Press one of the MAIN VARIATION [A]–[D] buttons to select the desired Main section (the
button lights in red). Each is an accompaniment pattern of a few measures or more and it
plays indefinitely. Pressing the selected MAIN VARIATION button again plays an appropri-
ate fill-in pattern to spice up the rhythm and break the repetition. After the fill-in finishes
playing, it leads smoothly into the Main section.
[BREAK] button
This lets you add dynamic breaks in the rhythm of the accompaniment. Press the [BREAK]
button during Style playback. When the one-measure Break pattern finishes playing, Style
playback automatically shifts to the Main section.
Fading In/Out
The Fade In/Out function produces smooth fade-ins and fade-outs when starting/stopping the playback of a Style or
Song. You can assign this function to the [ROTARY SP/ASSIGNABLE] button, footswitches, or the ASSIGNABLE
[A]–[F] buttons.
• To start playback with a fade in:
When playback is stopped, press the button to which this function has been assigned. Then press the [START/
STOP] button for Style (or the [ ] (PLAY/PAUSE) button for MIDI Song).
• To stop playback with a fade out:
During playback, press the button to which this function has been assigned.
AUTO FILL IN function
When the [AUTO FILL IN] button is turned on, pressing any of the MAIN VARIATION
[A]–[D] buttons as you play automatically plays a fill-in section for a smooth, dynamic
transition into the next (or same) section.
Style Section Reset
During playback of a Style, you can rewind to the top of the section (“reset” the playback position, for stutter repeat
effects) by pressing the [RESET/TAP TEMPO] button (page 42).
Automatically changing One Touch Settings with the Main sections (OTS
LINK)
The convenient OTS (One Touch Setting) Link function lets you automatically have One

Playing with Styles—Operations While Performing
The word “articulation” in music usually refers to the transition or continuity between
notes. This is often reflected in specific performance techniques, such as staccato, legato
and slur.
The Super Articulation Voices (S.Art Voices) enable you to create subtle, very realistic
expressive nuances, simply by how you play. The Voice type (S.Art) is indicated above the
name of Super Articulation Voices, on the Voice Selection display.
Automatic articulation effects of Super Articulation Voices
S.Art Voices
The S.Art Voices provide many benefits with great playability and expressive real-time control.
Example: Saxophone Voice
If you play a C note and then an adjacent D in a very legato way, you will hear the note
change seamlessly, as though a saxophone player played it in a single breath.
Example: Concert Guitar Voice
If you play a C note and then the E just above in a very legato but firm way, the pitch
slides up from C to E.
Playing and Controlling Super Articulation Voices
The applied articulation effect differs
depending on the selected Voice. For
details, refer to the Data List on the
website.
NOTE
You can also add articulation sounds manually by using the functions “Articulation 1–2” when the Voice has the correspond-
ing sounds. These functions can be assigned to the ASSIGNABLE buttons, the [ROTARY SP/ASSIGNABLE] button, or the
foot pedals. (pages 57, 94)

Singing with Song Playback—Setting Up
This section explains how to set up for your singing performance with Songs, using Song selection and Vocal Har-
mony settings.
As is the case in Chapter 1, the settings made in this section can be collectively stored in the Registration Memory
as one song setting (page 86).
Songs—MIDI Song and Audio Song
For this instrument, “Song” refers to MIDI or audio data which include preset songs, com-
mercially available music files, etc. Not only can you playback a song and listen to it, but
you can also play the keyboard or sing along with Song playback.
There are two kinds of Songs that can be recorded and played back on this instrument:
MIDI Songs and Audio Songs.
MIDI Song
A MIDI Song is comprised of your keyboard performance information and is not a record-
ing of the actual sound itself. The performance information refers to which keys are
played, at what timing, and at what strength—just as in a musical score. Based on the
recorded performance information, the tone generator (of the instrument, etc.) outputs the
corresponding sound. Since MIDI Song data contains the information such as keyboard
part and Voice, you can play more effectively by viewing the score, turning the particular
part on or off, or changing Voices.
Audio Song
An Audio Song is a recording of the performed sound itself. This data is recorded in the
same way as that used in recording cassette tapes, or with voice recorders, etc. Audio
Songs can be played back on portable music players and many other devices, making it
easy for you to let others hear what you have played.
If you want to play back a Song in a USB flash drive, connect the USB flash drive contain-
ing Song data to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal beforehand.
Setting Up Song Playback
Before using a USB flash drive, be sure
to read “Connecting USB Devices” on
page 107.

Song Recording
This instrument allows you to record your performance in two ways: MIDI recording and Audio recording. In
addition, MIDI recording features two different methods: Quick Recording, which is the easiest, most convenient
way to record, and Multi Recording, which allows you to record each channel or each track independently. In this
section, we’ll take a look at MIDI Quick Recording and Audio Quick Recording.
MIDI Quick Recording
With this method, recorded performances are saved to the instrument or a USB flash drive as an SMF (format 0)
MIDI file. If you want to re-record a specific section or change Voices and edit other parameters, use this method.
This instrument allows you to record approximately 3 MB per Song.
Audio Quick Recording
With this method, recorded performances are saved to the instrument as an Audio file. Recording is done without
designating the recorded part. Since it is saved in stereo WAV format of normal CD quality resolution (44.1kHz/
16-bit) by default, it can be transmitted to and played on portable music players by using a computer. It can also
be recorded in MP3 format (44.1 kHz sample rate, 128/256/320 kbps bit rate, stereo). This instrument allows you
to record up to 80 minutes per single recording.
Before recording, make the necessary settings such as Voice/Style selection. As necessary,
connect the USB flash drive to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal. With this type of record-
ing, each part will be recorded to the following channels.
• Keyboard parts: channels 1–4
• Multi Pad parts: channels 5–8
• Style parts: channels 9–16
1 Call up the MIDI Quick Recording display via [RECORDING]
MIDI [Quick Recording].
The display appears and a new blank Song is automatically set to record standby
status.
Multi Recording
• MIDI Multi Recording: This lets you create a MIDI Song consisting of 16 channels by recording your performance
to each channel one by one.
For details on Multi Recording, refer to the Reference Manual on the website.
MIDI Quick Recording
• Audio data such as the rhythm chan-
nels created via the audio data of
Audio Link Multi Pad and Audio
Songs cannot be recorded to the
MIDI Songs.
• Before using a USB flash drive, be
sure to read “Connecting USB
Devices” on page 107.
NOTE
To cancel the recording, touch [Stop]
on the display, and then press the
[EXIT] button, before going on to step

tus enabled. However, unlike MIDI Quick Recording, recording does not start auto-
matically with keyboard performance, Style playback, or Multi pad playback.
2 Touch [Play/Pause] to start recording.
Immediately after this operation, start and record your performance.

Connecting to an Audio Player via Bluetooth communication (PSR-
SX900)
You can play the sound of the audio data saved in a Bluetooth-equipped device, such as a smartphone or portable audio
player, on this instrument and listen to it through the built-in speaker of the instrument.
Bluetooth-equipped device:
In this manual, “Bluetooth-equipped device” refers to a device that can transmit audio data to the instrument via Bluetooth
wireless communication. For proper operation, the device must be compatible with A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution
Profile).
1 Call up the Bluetooth display via [MENU] [Blutetooth].
2 Make sure that the Bluetooth function is set to “On.”
If you wish to connect your Bluetooth-equipped device to the instrument, the
device needs to be paired with the instrument. If the device and the instrument have
already been paired, go to step 4.
3 Touch [Pairing] to enter the paring standby state.
Popup window is shown that means the instrument is waiting for paring process.
4 On your Bluetooth-equipped device, set the Bluetooth function
to on and select this instrument (the device name is shown on
the display in step 1) from the connection list.
After pairing is completed, the name of the Bluetooth-equipped device and “Con-
nected” are shown in the display.
Before using the Bluetooth function, be sure to read “About Bluetooth” on page 105.
To confirm Bluetooth capability of your instrument
The PSR-SX900 is equipped with Bluetooth functionality; however, even that model may not support Bluetooth,
depending on the country in which you purchased the product. If the “Bluetooth” icon is shown in the Menu 2 display,
this means that the product is equipped with Bluetooth functionality.

firm that the built-in speakers of the instrument can output the
audio sound.
Once the device has been paired with the instrument, there is no need to perform
pairing again.
When you turn on the instrument the next time, the last-connected Bluetooth-
equipped device will be connected to this instrument automatically, if the Blue-
tooth function of the Bluetooth-equipped device and the instrument is set to on. If it
is not connected automatically, select this instrument from the connection list on
the Bluetooth-equipped device.

NOTE
About Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a technology for wireless communication between devices within an area of about 10 meters (33 ft.)
employing the 2.4 GHz frequency band.
Handling Bluetooth communications
• The 2.4 GHz band used by Bluetooth compatible devices is a radio band shared by many types of equipment. While
Bluetooth compatible devices use a technology minimizing the influence of other components using the same radio
band, such influence may reduce the speed or distance of communications and in some cases interrupt communica-
tions.
• The speed of signal transfer and the distance at which communication is possible differs according to the distance
between the communicating devices, the presence of obstacles, radio wave conditions and the type of equipment.
• Yamaha does not guarantee all wireless connections between this unit and devices compatible with Bluetooth func-
tion.
106 PSR-SX900/SX700 Owner’s Manual
The FC4A or FC5 footswitches and the FC7 foot controller (sold separately) can be connected to one of the FOOT PEDAL
jacks. A footswitch can be used for switching functions on and off, while a foot controller controls continuous parameters
such as volume.
By default, each jack features the following function. Use the FC4A or FC5 footswitch.
• FOOT PEDAL [1]............... Switches sustain on or off.
• FOOT PEDAL [2]............... Controls the Super Articulation Voices (page 63).
You can also change the function assignments to the pedals as desired.
Example: Controlling MIDI Song Start/Stop by footswitch
Connect a footswitch (FC4A or FC5) to one of the FOOT PEDAL jacks.

Precautions when using the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal
This instrument features a built-in [USB TO DEVICE] terminal. When connecting a USB device to the terminal, be sure
to handle the USB device with care. Follow the important precautions below.
Compatible USB devices
• USB flash drive
• USB display adaptor (PSR-SX900)
• USB wireless LAN adaptor (UD-WL01; sold separately)
Other USB devices such as a computer keyboard or
mouse cannot be used.
The instrument does not necessarily support all commer-
cially available USB devices. Yamaha cannot guarantee
operation of USB devices that you purchase. Before pur-
chasing a USB device for use with this instrument, please
visit the following web page:
https://download.yamaha.com/
Although USB devices 1.1 to 3.0 can be used on this
instrument, the amount of time for saving to or loading
from the USB device may differ depending on the type of
data or the status of the instrument.
Connecting a USB device
When connecting a USB device to the [USB TO
DEVICE] terminal, make sure that the connector on the
device is appropriate and that it is connected in the proper
direction.
Using USB flash drives
By connecting the instrument to a USB flash drive, you
can save data you’ve created to the connected device, as
well as read data from the connected device.
Maximum number of USB flash drives allowed
Up to four USB flash drives can be connected to the [USB
TO DEVICE] terminal. (If necessary, use a USB hub. The
number of USB flash devices that can be used simultane-
ously with musical instruments even when a USB hub is
used is a maximum of four.)
Formatting a USB flash drive
You should format the USB flash drive only with this
instrument (page 108). A USB flash drive formatted on
another device may not operate properly.
To protect your data (write-protect)
To prevent important data from being inadvertently
erased, apply the write-protect provided with each USB
flash drive. If you are saving data to the USB flash drive,
make sure to disable write-protect.
Turning off the instrument
When turning off the instrument, make sure that the

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Overall
A click or pop is heard when the power is
turned on or off.
This is normal. Electrical current is being applied to the instrument.
The power is automatically turned off. This is normal and due to the Auto Power Off function. If necessary, set the parameter of
the Auto Power Off function (page 21).
Noise is heard from the instrument. Noise may be heard if a mobile phone is used near the instrument or if the phone is ring-
ing. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the instrument.
Noise is heard from the instrument’s speak-
ers or headphones when using the instru-
ment with an iPhone/iPad app.
When you use the instrument along with an iPhone/iPad app, we recommend that you set
“Airplane Mode” to “ON” on your iPhone/iPad in order to avoid noise caused by communi-
cation.
In the LCD, there are some specific points
that are always lit or unlit.
These are the result of defective pixels and occasionally occur in TFT-LCDs; they do not
indicate a problem in operation.
There is a slight difference in sound quality
among different notes played on the key-
board.
This is normal and is a result of the instrument’s sampling system.
Some Voices have a looping sound.
Some noise or vibrato is noticeable at higher
pitches, depending upon the Voice.
The overall volume is too low, or, no sound is
heard.
The master volume may be set too low. Set it to an appropriate level with the [MASTER
VOLUME] dial.
All keyboard parts are set to off. Use the PART ON/OFF [RIGHT 1]/[RIGHT 2]/[RIGHT 3]/
[LEFT] button to turn it on (page 44).
The volume of individual parts may be set too low. Raise the volume in the Mixer display
(page 80).
Make sure the desired channel is set to on in the Mixer display (page 82).
Headphones are connected, disabling the speaker output. Unplug the headphones.
Connect the footswitch to the appropriate jack.
Make sure that the Speaker setting is set to “On” or “Headphone switch”: [MENU] [Util-
ity]
The sound is distorted or noisy. The volume may be turned up too high. Make sure all relevant volume settings are appro-
priate.
This may be caused by certain effects or filter resonance settings. Check the effect or filter
settings and change them accordingly in the Mixer display, referring to the Reference Man-
ual on the website.
Sound from the speaker is occasionally inter-
rupted.
The sound level is too high, so the speaker protection function is activated and the sound
stops. Set the sound to an appropriate level by turning down the [MASTER VOLUME] dial.
Not all simultaneously played notes sound. You are probably exceeding the maximum polyphony of the instrument. When the maxi-
mum polyphony is exceeded, the least important notes (such as soft notes and notes cur-
rently decaying) will stop sounding first.
The keyboard volume is lower than the Style/
Song playback volume.
The volume of the keyboard parts may be set too low. Raise the volume in the Mixer dis-
play (page 80).
The Main display does not appear even
when turning the power on.
This may occur if a USB flash drive has been installed to the instrument. Installation of
some USB flash drive may result a long interval between turning the power on and
appearance of the Home display. To avoid this, turn the power on after disconnecting the
device.
Some characters of the file/folder name are
garbled.
The language settings have been changed. Set the appropriate language for the file/ folder
names (page 21).
An existing file is not shown. The file extension (.MID, etc.) may have been changed or deleted. Manually rename the
file, adding the appropriate extension, on a computer.
Data files with names of more than 50 characters cannot be handled by the instrument.
Rename the file, reducing the number of characters to 50 or less.
116 PSR-SX900/SX700 Owner’s Manual
Style
The Style does not start even when the
[START/STOP] button is pressed.
The Rhythm channel of the selected Style may not contain any data. Turn the [ACMP] but-
ton on and play the left-hand section on the keyboard to sound the accompaniment part of
the Style.
Only the rhythm channel plays. Make sure the Auto Accompaniment function is turned on; press the [ACMP] button.
Make sure to play keys in the chord section of the keyboard. (pages 45, 47)
Styles in a USB flash drive cannot be
selected.
If the size of the Style data is large (about 120 KB or greater), the Style cannot be selected
because the data is too large to be read by the instrument.
Style playback seems to “skip” when the key-
board is played.
You are probably exceeding the maximum polyphony of the instrument. The instrument
can play up to 128 notes at the same time—including RIGHT 1/RIGHT 2/RIGHT 3/ LEFT
Voices, Style, Song, and Multi Pad notes. When the maximum polyphony is exceeded, the
least important notes (such as soft notes and notes currently decaying) will stop sounding
first.
Style does not change even when a different
chord is played, or the chord is not recog-
nized.
Make sure to play notes on the chord section of the keyboard. (pages 45, 47)
Voic e
The Voice selected from the Voice Selection
display does not sound.
Check whether the selected part is turned on or not (page 44).
A strange “flanging” or “doubling” sound
occurs. The sound is slightly different each
time the keys are played.
The RIGHT 1 and RIGHT 2 parts are set to “ON,” and both parts are set to play the same
Voice. Turn off the RIGHT 2 part or change the Voice of one of the parts.
The sound is slightly different each time the
keys are played.
If you are routing the MIDI OUT on the instrument to a sequencer and back to the MIDI IN,
you may need to set Local Control setting to “off” in the System page of the MIDI display
(refer to the Reference Manual on the website).
Some Voices will jump an octave in pitch
when played in the upper or lower registers.
This is normal. Some voices have a pitch limit which, when reached, causes this type of
pitch shift.
Song
MIDI Songs cannot be selected. If the size of the Song data is large (about 3 MB or greater), the Song cannot be selected
because the data is too large to be read by the instrument.
MIDI Songs cannot be played back during MIDI recording operation. Stop MIDI Recording
when you want to play back a MIDI Song.
Audio Songs cannot be selected. The file format may not be compatible with the instrument. Compatible formats are: MP3
and WAV. DRM protected files cannot be played back.
Song playback does not start. The Song has been stopped at the end of the Song data. Return to the beginning of the
Song by pressing the SONG [ ] (PREV) button of corresponding Song type (MIDI or
AUDIO).
(MIDI)
The measure number is different from that of
the score in the Song Position display, shown
by pressing and holding the [|<<] (PREV) or
[>>|] (NEXT) button.
This happens when playing back music data for which a specific, fixed tempo is set.
(MIDI)
When playing back a Song, some channels
do not play.
Playback of these channels may be set to off. Turn playback on for those channels that are
set to off (page 82).
(MIDI)
The tempo, beat, measure and music nota-
tion are not displayed correctly.
Some Song data for the instrument has been recorded with special “free tempo” settings.
For such Song data, the tempo, beat, measure and music notation will not be displayed
correctly.
(MIDI)
When viewing the lyrics on the Score display,
some lyrics are omitted and cannot be seen.
There is not enough space to show the lyrics. Change the size of the Score to other than
“Medium” via the View Setting (page 77).
(Audio)
Recorded file is played back at a different vol-
ume compared to when it was recorded.
The audio playback volume has been changed. Setting the volume value to 90 plays back
the file at the same volume as when it was recorded (page 80).
In the Audio Recording function, an error
message appears and audio cannot be
recorded to the internal User drive.
The data on the User drive is fragmented and cannot be used as is. Since there is no
defragmentation function in the Audio Recording, the drive can only be defragmented by
formatting it. To do this, first back up the data by using the data backup function (page 99),
then format the drive, and finally restore the backup data. Performing this backup/restore
operation effectively defragments the drive, allowing you to use it again.
PSR-SX900/SX700 Owner’s Manual 117
Troubleshooting
In the Audio Recording function, an error
message appears and audio cannot be
recorded to the USB flash drive.
Make sure to use a compatible USB flash drive.
The USB flash drive may not have enough free space. Check the available space on the
display called up via [MENU] [Utility] [Storage]. (page 108)
If you are using a USB flash drive to which data has already been recorded, check first that
no important data remains on the drive, then format it (page 108) and try recording again.
Mixer
The sound seems strange or different than
expected when changing a rhythm Voice
(drum kit, etc.) of the Style or Song from the
Mixer.
When changing the rhythm/percussion Voices (drum kits, etc.) of the Style and Song from
the VOICE parameter, the detailed settings related to the drum voice are reset, and in
some cases you may be unable to restore the original sound. You can restore the original
sound by selecting the same Style or Song again.
Microphone/Vocal Harmony, Guitar
The microphone or guitar input signal cannot
be recorded.
The microphone or guitar input signal cannot be recorded by MIDI recording. Record by
using Audio recording (page 85).
(PSR-SX900) Harmony can be heard in
addition to the microphone sound.
Vocal Harmony is set to on. Turn Vocal Harmony off (page 50).
(PSR-SX900) The Vocal Harmony effect
sounds distorted or out-of-tune.
Your vocal microphone may be picking up extraneous sounds, such as the Style sound
from the instrument. In particular, bass sounds can cause mistracking of the Vocal Har-
mony. To remedy this:
• Sing as closely to the microphone as possible.
• Use a directional microphone.
• Turn down the Master volume, Style volume, or Song volume control (pages 20, 80).
(PSR-SX900) The Vocal Harmony effect is
not applied even when it is turned on.
In the Chordal mode, Vocal Harmony is added only when chords are detected. Try one of
the following:
• Turn on the [ACMP ON/OFF] button and play chords in the chord section during Style
playback.
• Turn on the Left part and play chords in the left hand section.
• Play back a Song which contains chords.
• Set the “Stop ACMP” parameter to something other than “Disabled” via [MENU] [Style
Setting] [Setting]. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website.
FOOT PEDAL jacks
The on/off setting of the footswitch connected
to the ASSIGNABLE FOOT PEDAL jack is
reversed.
Turn the instrument’s power off, then turn it on again making sure not to press the foot-
switch.
Connections
Sound input to the AUX IN jacks is inter-
rupted.
The output volume of the external device connected to this instrument is too low. Increase
the output volume of the external device. The volume level reproduced via this instrument
can be adjusted by using the [MASTER VOLUME] dial.
The Wireless LAN and Time icons are not
shown in the Menu display even though the
USB wireless LAN adaptor is connected.
Disconnect the USB wireless LAN adaptor and connect it again.
The Bluetooth-equipped device cannot be
paired with nor connected to the instrument.
Check that the Bluetooth function of the Bluetooth-equipped device is activated. To con-
nect the Bluetooth-equipped device and the instrument, Bluetooth function of both devices
need to be turned on.
The Bluetooth-equipped device and the instrument need to be paired to connect each
other via Bluetooth (page 104).
In case there is a device (microwave oven, wireless LAN device, etc.) that outputs signals
in the 2.4 GHz frequency band nearby, move this instrument away from the device that is
emitting radio-frequency signals.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright © 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to
share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is
intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software—to
make sure the software is free for all its users. This General Public License
applies to most of the Free Software Foundation’s software and to any other
program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software
Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License
instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our
General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the
freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if
you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you
can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that
you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to
deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions
translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the
software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for
a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must
make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must
show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer
you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or
modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that
everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the
software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients
to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems
introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors’ reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We
wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually
obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent
this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone’s
free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification
follow.
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR
COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND
MODIFICATION
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a
notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under
the terms of this General Public License. The “Program”, below, refers to
any such program or work, and a “work based on the Program” means
either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to
say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or
with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter,
translation is included without limitation in the term “modification”.) Each
licensee is addressed as “you”.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running
the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered
only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent
of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true
depends on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program’s source
code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously
and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice
and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this
License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other
recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you
may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it,
thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such
modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that
you also meet all of these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating
that you changed the files and the date of any change.
b)You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole
or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof,
to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the
terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when
run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use
in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement
including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no
warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users
may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the
user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program
itself is interactive but does not normally print such an
announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to
print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable
sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be
reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves,
then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you
distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same
sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the
distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose
permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to
each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your
rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the
right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on
the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the
scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under
Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections
1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine- readable
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1
and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange;
or,
b)Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give
any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically
performing source distribution, a complete machine- readable copy of
the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of
Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software
interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to
distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only
for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in
object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with
Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control
compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special
exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is
normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to
copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy
the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the
source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the
source along with the object code.

4.
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except
as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to
copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will
automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties
who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not
have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full
compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it.
However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the
Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if
you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing
the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your
acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for
copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original
licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms
and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the
recipients’ exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible
for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute
so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and
any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not
distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not
permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive
copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could
satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from
distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply
and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents
or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims;
this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free
software distribution system, which is implemented by public license
practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide
range of software distributed through that system in reliance on
consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to
decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other
system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be
a consequence of the rest of this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain
countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original
copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an
explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so
that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
written in the body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and “any
later version”, you have the option of following the terms and conditions
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number
of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free
Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs
whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for
permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software
Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make
exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of
preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of
promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11.
BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE
STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER
PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY
OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT
NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF
THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE
DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY
SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR
AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY
OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE
PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR
DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR
INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR
LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE
OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF
THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New
Programs
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible
use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software
which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach
them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion
of warranty; and each file should have at least the “copyright” line and a
pointer to where the full notice is found.
<one line to give the program’s name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright © <year> <name of author>
This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it
under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the
Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your
option) any later version.
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but
WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
See the GNU General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation,
Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA.
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it
starts in an interactive mode:
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright © year name of author
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details
type ‘show w’. This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute
it under certain conditions; type ‘show c’ for details.
The hypothetical commands ‘show w’ and ‘show c’ should show the
appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands
you use may be called something other than ‘show w’ and ‘show c’; they
could even be mouse-clicks or menu items—whatever suits your program.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
school, if any, to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the program, if necessary.
Here is a sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
‘Gnomovision’ (which makes passes at compilers) written by James
Hacker.

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General Public
License instead of this License.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2.1, February 1999
Copyright © 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL.
It also counts as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the version number 2.1.]
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to
share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are
intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software— to
make sure the software is free for all its users.
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially
designated software packages—typically libraries—of the Free Software
Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we
suggest you first think carefully about whether this license or the ordinary
General Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular case,
based on the explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, not
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have
the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if
you wish); that you receive source code or can get it if you want it; that you
can change the software and use pieces of it in new free programs; and that
you are informed that you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors to
deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these rights. These
restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies
of the library or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a fee,
you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must make
sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other code
with the library, you must provide complete object files to the recipients, so
that they can relink them with the library after making changes to the library
and recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so they know their
rights.
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library,
and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal permission to copy,
distribute and/or modify the library.
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no
warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is modified by someone else
and passed on, the recipients should know that what they have is not the
original version, so that the original author’s reputation will not be affected by
problems that might be introduced by others.
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free
program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot effectively restrict the
users of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent holder.
Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained for a version of the
library must be consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this
license.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary
GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General Public
License, applies to certain designated libraries, and is quite different from the
ordinary General Public License. We use this license for certain libraries in
order to permit linking those libraries into non-free programs.
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a shared
library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a combined work, a
derivative of the original library. The ordinary General Public License
therefore permits such linking only if the entire combination fits its criteria of
freedom. The Lesser General Public License permits more lax criteria for
linking other code with the library.
We call this license the “Lesser” General Public License because it does
Less to protect the user’s freedom than the ordinary General Public License.
It also provides other free software developers Less of an advantage over
competing non-free programs. These disadvantages are the reason we use
the ordinary General Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser
license provides advantages in certain special circumstances.
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage
the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto
standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the
library. A more frequent case is that a free library does the same job as
widely used non-free libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the
free library to free software only, so we use the Lesser General Public
License.
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs
enables a greater number of people to use a large body of free software. For
example, permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables
many more people to use the whole GNU operating system, as well as its
variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the users’
freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked with the
Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a
modified version of the Library.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification
follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a “work based on the
library” and a “work that uses the library”. The former contains code derived
from the library, whereas the latter must be combined with the library in order
to run.
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC
LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR
COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND
MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program
which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other
authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this
Lesser General Public License (also called “this License”). Each
licensee is addressed as “you”.
A “library” means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared
so as to be conveniently linked with application programs (which use
some of those functions and data) to form executables.
The “Library”, below, refers to any such software library or work which
has been distributed under these terms. A “work based on the Library”
means either the Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that
is to say, a work containing the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim
or with modifications and/or translated straightforwardly into another
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the
term “modification”.)
“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means all
the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface
definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and
installation of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running a
program using the Library is not restricted, and output from such a
program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for writing it).
Whether that is true depends on what the Library does and what the
program that uses the Library does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library’s complete
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices
that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and
distribute a copy of this License along with the Library.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you
may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it,
thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute such
modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that
you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
b)You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices stating
that you changed the files and the date of any change.
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to
all third parties under the terms of this License.
PSR-SX900/SX700 Owner’s Manual 125
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a table of data
to be supplied by an application program that uses the facility, other
than as an argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you
must make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event an
application does not supply such function or table, the facility still
operates, and performs whatever part of its purpose remains
meaningful.
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a
purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the application.
Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any application-supplied
function or table used by this function must be optional: if the
application does not supply it, the square root function must still
compute square roots.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable
sections of that work are not derived from the Library, and can be
reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves,
then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you
distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same
sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Library, the
distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose
permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to
each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your
rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the
right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on
the Library.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of a
storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the
scope of this License.
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do this,
you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer
to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, instead of to this
License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General
Public License has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if
you wish.) Do not make any other change in these notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy,
so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all subsequent
copies and derivative works made from that copy.
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the
Library into a program that is not a library.
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it,
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with the
complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
customarily used for software interchange.
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a
designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source
code from the same place satisfies the requirement to distribute the
source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the
source along with the object code.
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is
designed to work with the Library by being compiled or linked with it, is
called a “work that uses the Library”. Such a work, in isolation, is not a
derivative work of the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of
this License.
However, linking a “work that uses the Library” with the Library creates
an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it contains
portions of the Library), rather than a “work that uses the library”. The
executable is therefore covered by this License. Section 6 states terms
for distribution of such executables.
When a “work that uses the Library” uses material from a header file that
is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a derivative
work of the Library even though the source code is not. Whether this is
true is especially significant if the work can be linked without the Library,
or if the work is itself a library. The threshold for this to be true is not
precisely defined by law.
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure
layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline functions (ten
lines or less in length), then the use of the object file is unrestricted,
regardless of whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executables
containing this object code plus portions of the Library will still fall under
Section 6.)
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute
the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. Any
executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, whether or
not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a
“work that uses the Library” with the Library to produce a work
containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work under terms of
your choice, provided that the terms permit modification of the work for
the customer’s own use and reverse engineering for debugging such
modifications.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by this
License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work during
execution displays copyright notices, you must include the copyright
notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference directing the
user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one of these things:
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-
readable source code for the Library including whatever changes
were used in the work (which must be distributed under Sections 1
and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked with the Library,
with the complete machine-readable “work that uses the Library”, as
object code and/or source code, so that the user can modify the
Library and then relink to produce a modified executable containing
the modified Library. (It is understood that the user who changes the
contents of definitions files in the Library will not necessarily be able
to recompile the application to use the modified definitions.)
b)Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A
suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a copy of the
library already present on the user’s computer system, rather than
copying library functions into the executable, and (2) will operate
properly with a modified version of the library, if the user installs one,
as long as the modified version is interface- compatible with the
version that the work was made with.
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years,
to give the same user the materials specified in Subsection 6a,
above, for a charge no more than the cost of performing this
distribution.
d)If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a
designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above specified
materials from the same place.
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or
that you have already sent this user a copy.
For an executable, the required form of the “work that uses the Library”
must include any data and utility programs needed for reproducing the
executable from it. However, as a special exception, the materials to be
distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in
either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler,
kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs,
unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of
other proprietary libraries that do not normally accompany the operating
system. Such a contradiction means you cannot use both them and the
Library together in an executable that you distribute.
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-
by-side in a single library together with other library facilities not covered
by this License, and distribute such a combined library, provided that the
separate distribution of the work based on the Library and of the other
library facilities is otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these
two things:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based
on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities. This must
be distributed under the terms of the Sections above.
b)Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part of
it is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the
accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise
to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and
will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However,
parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License
will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in
full compliance.
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it.
However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the
Library or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you
do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the
Library (or any work based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance
of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
distributing or modifying the Library or works based on it.
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original
licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library subject to
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions
on the recipients’ exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not
responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
126 PSR-SX900/SX700 Owner’s Manual
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute
so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and
any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not
distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent license would not
permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those who receive
copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could
satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from
distribution of the Library.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents
or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims;
this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free
software distribution system which is implemented by public license
practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide

decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other
system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be
a consequence of the rest of this License.
12.If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain
countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original
copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add an
explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so
that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
written in the body of this License.
13.The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in
detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and “any
later version”, you have the option of following the terms and conditions
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a license version
number, you may choose any version ever published by the Free
Software Foundation.
14.If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs
whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, write to the
author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the
Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we
sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the
two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free
software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New
Libraries
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use
to the public, we recommend making it free software that everyone can
redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting redistribution under
these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the ordinary General Public
License).
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is safest to
attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the
exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the “copyright” line
and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
<one line to give the library’s name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright © <year> <name of author>
This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under
the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by the
Free Software Foundation; either version 2.1 of the License, or (at your
option) any later version.
This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT
ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
See the GNU Lesser General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public
License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software
Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-
1301 USA
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
school, if any, to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the library, if necessary.
Here is a sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the library ‘Frob’
(a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.
<signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1990
Ty Coon, President of Vice
That’s all there is to it!

PCRE LICENCE
PCRE is a library of functions to support regular expressions whose syntax
and semantics are as close as possible to those of the Perl 5 language.
Release 8 of PCRE is distributed under the terms of the “BSD” licence, as
specified below. The documentation for PCRE, supplied in the “doc”
directory, is distributed under the same terms as the software itself.
The basic library functions are written in C and are freestanding. Also
included in the distribution is a set of C++ wrapper functions, and a just-in-
time compiler that can be used to optimize pattern matching. These are both
optional features that can be omitted when the library is built.

1-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
ON ARRANGER WORKSTATION KEYBOARDS
Thank you for selecting a Yamaha product. Yamaha products are designed and manufactured to provide a high level of defect-free
performance. Yamaha Corporation of America (“Yamaha”) is proud of the experience and craftsmanship that goes into each and
every Yamaha product. Yamaha sells its products through a network of reputable, specially authorized dealers and is pleased to offer
you, the Original Owner, the following Limited Warranty, which applies only to products that have been (1) directly purchased from
Yamaha’s authorized dealers in the fifty states of the USA and District of Columbia (the “Warranted Area”) and (2) used exclusively in
the Warranted Area. Yamaha suggests that you read the Limited Warranty thoroughly, and invites you to contact your authorized
Yamaha dealer or Yamaha Customer Service if you have any questions.
Coverage: Yamaha will, at its option, repair or replace the product covered by this warranty if it becomes defective, malfunctions or
otherwise fails to conform with this warranty under normal use and service during the term of this warranty, without charge for labor
or materials. Repairs may be performed using new or refurbished parts that meet or exceed Yamaha specifications for new parts. If
Yamaha elects to replace the product, the replacement may be a reconditioned unit. You will be responsible for any installation or
removal charges and for any initial shipping charges if the product(s) must be shipped for warranty service. However, Yamaha will
pay the return shipping charges to any destination within the USA if the repairs are covered by the warranty. This warranty does not
cover (a) damage, deterioration or malfunction resulting from accident, negligence, misuse, abuse, improper installation or operation
or failure to follow instructions according to the Owner’s Manual for this product; any shipment of the product (claims must be
presented to the carrier); repair or attempted repair by anyone other than Yamaha or an authorized Yamaha Service Center; (b) any
unit which has been altered or on which the serial number has been defaced, modified or removed; (c) normal wear and any periodic
maintenance; (d) deterioration due to perspiration, corrosive atmosphere or other external causes such as extremes in temperature
or humidity; (e) damages attributable to power line surge or related electrical abnormalities, lightning damage or acts of God; or (f)
RFI/EMI (Interference/noise) caused by improper grounding or the improper use of either certified or uncertified equipment, if
applicable. Any evidence of alteration, erasing or forgery of proof-of-purchase documents will cause this warranty to be void. This
warranty covers only the Original Owner and is not transferable.
In Order to Obtain Warranty Service: Warranty service will only be provided for defective products within the Warranted
Area. Contact your local authorized Yamaha dealer who will advise you of the procedures to be followed. If this is not successful,
contact Yamaha at the address, telephone number or website shown below. Yamaha may request that you send the defective product
to a local authorized Yamaha Servicer or authorize return of the defective product to Yamaha for repair. If you are uncertain as to
whether a dealer has been authorized by Yamaha, please contact Yamaha’s Service Department at the number shown below, or
check Yamaha’s website at www.Yamaha.com. Product(s) shipped for service should be packed securely and must be accompanied
by a detailed explanation of the problem(s) requiring service, together with the original or a machine reproduction of the bill of sale or
other dated, proof-of-purchase document describing the product, as evidence of warranty coverage. Should any product submitted
for warranty service be found ineligible therefore, an estimate of repair cost will be furnished and the repair will be accomplished only
if requested by you and upon receipt of payment or acceptable arrangement for payment.
Limitation of Implied Warranties and Exclusion of Damages: ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE SHALL BE LIMITED IN DURATION TO
THE APPLICABLE PERIOD OF TIME SET FORTH ABOVE. YAMAHA SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR FOR DAMAGES BASED UPON INCONVENIENCE, LOSS OF USE, DAMAGE TO ANY OTHER
EQUIPMENT OR OTHER ITEMS AT THE SITE OF USE OR INTERRUPTION OF PERFORMANCES OR ANY CONSEQUENCES.
YAMAHA’S LIABILITY FOR ANY DEFECTIVE PRODUCT IS LIMITED TO REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF THE PRODUCT, AT
YAMAHA’S OPTION. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS OR THE
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION
MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. This Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to
state. This is the only express warranty applicable to the product specified herein; Yamaha neither assumes nor authorizes anyone to
assume for it any other express warranty.
If you have any questions about service received or if you need assistance in locating an authorized Yamaha
Servicer, please contact:
