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.
• Use only the stand (
page 111
) specified for the instrument. When
attaching it, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause
damage to the internal components or result in the instrument falling over.
• 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.

Formats
“GM (General MIDI)” is one of the most common Voice allocation formats. “GM System Level 2” is a standard specification
that enhances the original “GM” 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 spe-
cifically 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 expand-
ability 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.

Welcome to Digital Workstation
The PSR-SX600 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.
The Styles of the PSR-SX600 make it possible to perform in a wide variety
of music genres with full instrumental accompaniment. Simply playing
chords automatically triggers and controls the auto accompaniment
backing, and puts an entire backing band behind you!
You can change arrangements on the fly, instantly selecting different
rhythm variations and breaks in real time — including Intro, Ending, and
Fill-in — during your performance.
By connecting a microphone to the [MIC INPUT]
jack, the instrument outputs your vocals through the
built-in speakers, and you can record your own
performance with high sound quality. Moreover, since
song lyrics or music scores can be shown on the
display, you can also enjoy singing along with your
keyboard performance or along with Song playback.
DSP (Digital Signal Processor) features built into the PSR-SX600 provide
high-quality effect types, including Real Distortion and Real Reverb. You
can also apply the DSP effects independently to specified parts, such
as guitar, allowing you to play the keyboard dynamically with a distorted
guitar sound, or sound like you are playing in a concert hall.

PSR-SX600 Owner’s Manual 11
Welcome to Digital Workstation
Audio files (WAV format) saved to a USB flash drive (or a
computer or smart device) can be played back on the
instrument. You can also record your performance as
audio files (WAV format) with high sound quality to these
devices — making it easy to edit your recordings on
computer as desired, and share them over the Internet,
or burn your own original CDs.
The Multi Pads can be used to play a number of
short pre-recorded rhythmic and melodic
sequences. Playing the Multi Pads during
playback of Styles, etc. can add impact and
variety to your performance, and make it more
dynamic.
The two LIVE CONTROL knobs can be assigned to
various different functions, letting you intuitively control
your performance in real-time. For example, you can
use the knobs to control the brightness (cutoff
frequency) of the sound being played or to correct the
tone or timbre of the sound with EQ — letting you easily
add variations to the sound without interrupting your
performance.
You can also control your performance easily by using
the two wheels — PITCH BEND and MODULATION. The
PITCH BEND wheel can bend the notes up or down like
bending a guitar string, and the MODULATION wheel
can apply a vibrato effect to notes played on the
keyboard.

The particular type of a Voice is classified into nine kinds. The defining characteristics of these Voices and their
performance advantages are described below.
For a list of preset Voices of this instrument, refer to the “Voice List” in the Data List on the website.
NOTE
The Voice name for each part can be
confirmed on the Main display
(page 18).
Voice Types (Characteristics)
S.Art Voice
(Super Articulation Voices)
The S.Art Voices enable you to create subtle, very realistic musical expressions, simply by how you
play the keyboard or use the foot controller in real-time. “S.Art” is indicated at the upper left of the
Voice name in the Voice Selection display when selected. To confirm what playing techniques are
effective with specific S.Art Voices, press the [6 ] (Info) button shown in the display of the
selected S.Art Voice. For details, refer to page 36.
Live These acoustic instrument sounds were sampled in stereo, to produce a truly authentic, rich sound
— full of atmosphere and ambience.
Cool These Voices use sophisticated programming to capture the dynamic textures and subtle nuances of
electric instruments.
Sweet These acoustic instrument sounds also benefit from Yamaha’s sophisticated technology — and fea-
ture a finely detailed and natural sound.
Drums Various drum and percussion sounds are assigned to individual keys, letting you play the sounds
from the keyboard. For information about what sound is assigned to each key, refer to the “Drum/
SFX Kit List” in the Data List on the website.
SFX Various special effect sounds and percussion sounds are assigned to individual keys, letting you
play the sounds from the keyboard. For information about what sound is assigned to each key, refer
to the “Drum/SFX Kit List” in the Data List on the website.
Live Drums These are high-quality drum sounds that take full advantage of Stereo Sampling and Dynamic Sam-
pling.
Live SFX These are various high-quality special effect sounds and percussion sounds that take full advantage
of Stereo Sampling and Dynamic Sampling.
MegaVoice MegaVoice is a special Voice format designed for use in styles and songs, not for live performance.
Different velocity ranges are used to select dramatically different playing styles simultaneously,
and without changing the voice.
Actual sound maps for the MegaVoices are provided in the “MegaVoices Map” in the Data List on
the website.
NOTE
• The MegaVoices are not compatible with other kinds of Voices. For this reason, any Song or Style you’ve created on this
instrument using these Voices will not sound properly when played back on the instruments which do not have these
types of Voices.
• MegaVoices sound differently depending on keyboard range, velocity, touch, etc. Hence, if you turn on the [HARMONY/
ARPEGGIO] button or change the Voice Set parameters, unexpected or undesired sounds may result.

36 PSR-SX600 Owner’s Manual
The Super Articulation Voices (S.Art Voices) enable you to create subtle, very realistic musical expressions, simply
by how you play. The [S.Art] icon is shown beside the Voice name of Super Articulation Voices (S.Art) on the
Voice Selection display or the Home display.
By playing notes in a very legato way (i.e., a note is played while the preceding note is still held), the S.Art Voices
provide many benefits with great playability and expressive control in real time — remarkably reproducing the
sound and performance of actual musical instruments.
Example: Saxophone Voice
With the 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: Guitar Voice
With the ConcertGuitar 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.
To control articulation effects, you can assign the function to the pedal. Pressing a
pedal triggers different playing effects, separate from your keyboard playing. For
example, pressing a pedal for a saxophone Voice can produce breath noises or key
noises, while doing the same for a guitar Voice can produce fret noises or body-
tapping sounds. You can effectively intersperse these into the notes as you play.
To assign the function of articulation to the pedal, call up the display via the
following operations.
[MENU] → TAB [E] Menu1 → Cursor buttons [][][E][F] Controller →
[ENTER] → TAB [E] Foot Pedal
For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website, Chapter 9.
Playing Super Articulation Voices
Adding Articulation Effects by Playing the Keyboard
NOTE
Since the S.Art Voices have various
effects, not all of the S.Art Voices cor-
respond to legato play. To confirm
what playing techniques are effective
with specific S.Art Voices, press the [6
] (Info) button shown in the display
of the selected S.Art Voice.
Adding Articulation Effects by Using the Pedal
NOTE
• S.Art Voices are compatible with
other models which have those
types of Voices installed; however,
some Song or Style data you’ve cre-
ated on the instrument using these
Voices may not sound properly
when played back on other instru-
ments.
• S.Art Voices sound differently
depending on the keyboard range,
velocity, touch, etc. Hence, if you
turn on a Keyboard Harmony effect,
or change the Voice Settings, unex-
pected or undesired sounds may
result.

Use the [PITCH BEND] wheel to bend notes up (roll the wheel away from you) or
down (roll the wheel toward you) while playing the keyboard. The Pitch Bend is
applied to all the keyboard parts (RIGHT 1, 2 and LEFT). The [PITCH BEND]
wheel is self-centering and will automatically return to normal pitch when released.
The [PITCH BEND] wheel lets you bend the notes up or down like bending a guitar
string, or create ornamental phrasings by bending a semitone down at the beginning
of a phrase — giving you a performance tool for creating very realistic musical
expressions, as if you are playing an actual stringed or wind instrument.
The maximum pitch bend range can be changed on the Controller display:
[MENU] → TAB [ E] Menu1 → Cursor buttons [][][E][F] Controller →
[ENTER] → TAB [F] Setting → Cursor buttons [][] 3 Pitch Bend Range.
The Modulation function applies a vibrato effect to notes played on the keyboard. By
default, this is applied to the keyboard parts (RIGHT 1, 2 and LEFT). Moving the
[MODULATION] wheel up (away from you) increases the depth of the effect, while
moving it down (toward you) decreases it.
You can set whether the effects caused by the [MODULATION] wheel will be
applied or not to each of the keyboard part: [MENU] → TAB [E] Menu1 → Cursor
buttons [][][E][F] Controller → [ENTER] → TAB [F] Setting → Cursor
buttons [][] 2 Modulation Wheel.

A Style consists of rhythm and accompaniment (chords, etc.) parts. The buttons for Style playback are covered
here.
• [START/STOP] button
Turns on/off Style playback. However, only the rhythm part is played back.
• [ACMP] button
Turns the Auto Accompaniment on/off. After activating this button, both the rhythm
part and Auto Accompaniment can be played back when playing chords in the chord
section during Style playback.
• [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
Make sure that the [ACMP] button is on, and then press the [SYNC STOP] button,
and play the keyboard. You can start and stop the Style anytime you want by simply
playing or releasing the keys in the chord section of the keyboard.
• INTRO [I] – [III] buttons
The instrument features three different Intro sections to add an introduction before
starting Style playback. After pressing one of the INTRO [I] – [III] buttons, start
playback of the Style. When the Intro finishes playing, Style playback automatically
shifts to the Main section.
• ENDING/rit. [I] – [III] buttons
The instrument features three different Ending sections to add an ending before
stopping Style playback. When you press one of the ENDING/rit. [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/rit. button once again, while the ending is playing.

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 and it plays indefinitely. Pressing the selected MAIN VARIATION button
again maintains the same section, but plays an appropriate fill-in pattern to spice up
the rhythm and break the repetition.
• [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, the Style playback automatically shifts to the Main section.
• [FADE IN/OUT] button
This produces smooth fade-ins and fade-outs when starting/stopping the playback of
Style and Song. Press the [FADE IN/OUT] button when playback is stopped and
press the [START/STOP] button for Style (or the [PLAY/PAUSE] button for Song)
to start playback with a fade in. To stop the playback with a fade out, press the
[FADE IN/OUT] button during playback.
The TEMPO [-] and [+] buttons (page 38) let you change the playback tempo of Style, Song and Metronome. The
tempo of the Style and Song can also be adjusted via the [RESET/TAP TEMPO] button.
• [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 “Style Section Reset.”
Changing Pattern Variation (Sections) During Style Playback

] buttons to select a Chord Fingering
type.
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 specify the chord by pressing the notes making up a chord in the left hand section of the keyboard
when [ACMP] is turned on or the LEFT part is turned on. For information on which notes to press for each chord,
use the Chord Tutor function (see below) or refer to the Reference Manual on the website.
• Multi Finger
This automatically detects Single Finger or Fingered chord fingerings, so you can use either type of fingering
without having to switch fingering types. By default, the Chord Fingering type is set to Multi Finger.
• 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 specifying 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.
Changing the Chord Fingering Type
NOTE
When the chord detection area is set to
“Upper” (page 58), only the “Fin-
gered*” type is available. This type is
basically same as “Fingered,” except
that “1+5,” “1+8” and Chord Cancel
are not available.

The powerful Unison & Accent function gives you expressive and nuanced control over Style playback, making it
closely follow your performance and letting you create various musical variations in the accompaniment. With the
Unison
function turned on, you can play a melody and have it reproduced in unison (i.e., the same melody is
performed by two or more instruments) or tutti (i.e., all players perform at the same time) — expressively enhancing
your performance and letting you create dynamic phrases. With the
Accent
function turned on, the composition of
Style playback changes subtly, adding notes according to the accents of your performance. This allows you to
temporary change the Style playback to include rhythmic syncopation. For the Styles to which this function can be
used, refer to the Data List on the website.

•
All Parts
:
Suitable for a one-hand performance. In this type, all the accompaniment parts follow
your performance. This is recommended when playing unison phrases with only one hand.
• Split: Suitable for a both-hands performance. In this type, with the keyboard divided by the
Split Point (Left), the accompaniment parts suitable for each hand follow your performance
independently. For example, low-pitched sound musical instruments (such as bass guitar,
baritone saxophone, and contrabass) follow the left hand, and solo musical instruments (such
as flute) follow the right. It is useful for playing with different Voices between left-hand and
right-hand.
•
Auto Split
:
Suitable for a both-hands performance. In this type, the accompaniment parts that
follow your performance are automatically assigned to each hand by automatically detecting the
appropriate left-hand and right-hand sections from your performance. This is recommended
when playing tutti with Voices having a wide range, such as piano or strings. It enables enormous
flexibility in your performance, freeing you from the limitations of a specific Split Point.
For information on setting the Split Point, refer to page 57.

The Style Creator function lets you create original Styles by recording rhythm patterns from the keyboard and using
already-recorded Style data. Basically, select a preset Style that is closest to the type you want to create, and then
record each part (the rhythm pattern, bass line, chord backing, or phrase) for each Section.
This section gives you a brief introduction of the Style Creator function. For instructions on how to use the function,
refer to the Reference Manual on the website.
Style Data Structure — Source Patterns
A Style is made up of different Sections (Intro, Main, Ending, etc.), and each Section has eight separate parts, each
with recorded data (channel data), and which are referred to as “Source Patterns.” With the Style Creator feature,
you can create a Style by separately recording the Source Pattern for each channel, or by importing pattern data
from other existing Styles.
The Rhythm parts of a preset Style consist of a preset Drum Kit, and each drum
sound is assigned to a separate note. You may want to change the sounds and the
note assignments, or make more detailed settings such as volume balance, effect, etc.
By using the Drum Setup function of the Style Creator, you can edit the Rhythm part
of a Style and save it as an original Style. For details, refer to the Reference Manual

For the PSR-SX600, “Song” refers to the MIDI songs which
include preset songs, commercially available MIDI format 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 and record
your own performance as a Song.
You can play back the following types of Songs.
• Preset Songs (in the Preset tab of the Song Selection display)
• Your own recorded Songs (page 68)
• Commercially available Song data: SMF (Standard MIDI File)
If you want to play back a Song in a USB flash drive, connect the USB flash drive
containing the Song data to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal beforehand.

MIDI song
A MIDI Song is comprised of your keyboard performance information and is not a
recording 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 outputs the
corresponding sound. Since MIDI Song data contains the information such as
keyboard part and Voice, you can practice effectively by viewing the score, turning
the particular part on or off, or changing Voices.

You can record your performance and save it as a MIDI file (SMF format 0) to the
USER drive or USB flash drive. Since the recorded data is MIDI, you can easily edit
your Songs.
MIDI recording
With this method, recorded performances are saved to the User memory of 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. Also, if you want to record your performance to each channel one by one,
execute Multi Track Recording of the MIDI recording method. Since a MIDI
Song can be re-recorded as an audio file after recording (page 75), you may want
to use MIDI recording (with overdubbing and multiple parts) to first create a
complex arrangement you would not otherwise be able to play live. This
instrument allows you to record approximately 1MB per Song.
Two recording methods are available:
• Quick Recording .................See section below.
You can record all parts of your performance at once without changing the channel/part assignment. Or you
can record a particular part separately (right-hand, left-hand or Style playback).
• Multi Track Recording.......page 69
You can record data to each part one-by-one over a different channel number, to create a single, multi-part
Song. The channel/part assignments can be freely changed.
Audio recording
With this method, recorded performances are saved to a USB flash drive as Audio files (WAV format/44.1kHz/
16-bit/stereo). For instructions on Audio recording, refer to page 75.
With this recording, each part will be recorded as the following channels.
• Keyboard parts: channels 1 – 3
• Multi Pad parts: channels 5 – 8
• Style parts: channels 9 – 16
1 Before recording, make the necessary settings, such as Voice/
Style selection.

You can create a Song consisting of 16 channels by recording your performance to each part one-by-one over a different
channel number. In recording a piano piece, for example, you can record the right-hand part as channel 1 then record the
left-hand part as channel 2, allowing you to create a complete piece which may be difficult to play live with both hands
together. To record a performance with Style playback, for example, record the Style playback as channels 9 – 16, and
then record melodies as channel 1 while listening to the already recorded Style playback. In this way, you can create an
entire Song which would otherwise be difficult, or even impossible, to play live.

Registration Memory/Playlist
– Saving and Recalling Custom Panel Setups –
The Registration Memory function allows you to save (or
“register”) panel settings, such as those of Voices and Styles, to
a Registration Memory button, and then instantly recall your
custom panel settings by simply pressing a single button. When
you’ve saved a lot of data to the Registration Memory, use the
Playlist to manage your repertoire so that you can quickly call
up the desired Registration Memory for each piece of music.
Registration Memory (page 85)
You can register your custom panel settings to each of the Registration Memory [1] – [8] buttons. You can also save
all eight registered panel setups as a single Registration Memory Bank file. If you select a Registration Memory
Bank file beforehand, you can easily call up the registered settings simply by pressing a button during your
performance.
Playlist (page 88)
The Playlist function allows you to create custom performance lists. A Playlist contains links to call up Registration
Memory Bank files for each piece you play. Each link to the Registration Memory is called a “Record,” and you can
collectively store the Playlist Records as a single Playlist file. Each Playlist Record can directly recall a specified
Registration Memory number in the selected Registration Memory Bank file. By using the Playlist, you can select
only the desired files from the huge number of the Registration Memory Bank files without changing the bank file
configuration.
NOTE
By importing Music Finder Records (.mfd) used on previous Yamaha digital keyboards (such as the PSR-S670, etc.), you can use the Records on the Playlist of this instru-
ment, just like using the Music Finder function on those other instruments. For details, refer to the “Playlist” section in the Reference Manual on the website. For details on
using Music Finder, refer to the Owner’s Manual of the Yamaha digital piano which contains your desired Music Finder Records.

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 15).
Noise is heard from the instrument’s speakers. Noise may be heard if a mobile phone is used near the instrument
or if the phone is ringing. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further
away from the instrument.
Noise is heard from the instrument’s speakers or headphones
when using the instrument with the application on smart device.
When you use the instrument along with the application on your
smart device, we recommend that you set “Airplane Mode” to “ON”
on your smart device 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 keyboard.
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]/[LEFT] button to turn it on.
The volume of the individual parts may be set too low. Raise the
volume in the Balance display (page 56).
Make sure the desired channel is set to On (pages 54, 65).
Headphones are connected, disabling the speaker output. Unplug
the headphones.
Make sure that the Speaker setting is set to On:
[MENU] → Menu2 → Utility → [ENTER] → Config1.
The [FADE IN/OUT] button is on, muting the sound. Press the
[FADE IN/OUT] button to turn the function off.
The sound is distorted or noisy. The volume may be turned up too high. Make sure all relevant vol-
ume settings are appropriate.
This may be caused by certain effects or filter settings. Check the
effect or filter settings and change them accordingly, referring to
the Reference Manual.
Not all simultaneously played notes sound. You are probably exceeding the maximum polyphony (page 110)
of the instrument. When the maximum polyphony is exceeded, the
earliest played notes will stop sounding, letting the latest played
notes sound.
The keyboard volume is lower than the Song/Style playback vol-
ume.
The volume of the keyboard parts may be set too low. Raise the
volume in the Balance display (page 56).
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 instru-
ment. Installation of some USB flash drives may result a long inter-
val between turning the power on and appearance of the Main
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 name (page 16).
108 PSR-SX600 Owner’s Manual

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 han-
dled by the instrument. Rename the file, reducing the number of
characters to 50 or less.
Voice
The Voice selected from the Voice Selection display does not
sound.
Check whether or not the selected part is turned on (page 37). If
necessary, press the appropriate PART ON/OFF button to turn the
part on.
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.
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.
MegaVoice does not sound when playing the keyboard. This is normal. The MegaVoice function makes special use of
velocity switching to express the sounds of various performance
techniques. MegaVoice does not sound in the area only for
expressing “Mute” or “empty” sound when playing the keyboard.
For more information, refer to page 35.
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] button on and play 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
(page 57, 58).
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 han-
dled by the instrument.
Song
Songs cannot be selected. This may be because the language settings have been changed.
Set the appropriate language for the Song file name.
If the size of the Song data is large (about 300 KB or greater), the
Song cannot be selected because the data is too large to be han-
dled by the instrument.
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 [J] (STOP) but-
ton.
In the case of a Song to which write-protect has been applied,
there are some restrictions and playback may not be possible. For
details, refer to page 25.
Song playback stops before the Song is finished. The Guide function is turned on. (In this case, playback is “waiting”
for the correct key to be played.) Press the [SONG FUNCTION]
button to call up the Song Function Menu display, and then press
one of the [6 ] (Guide) buttons to turn off the Guide function.
The measure number is different from that of the score in the
Song Position display, shown by pressing the [G] (REW)/[H]
(FF) buttons.
This happens when playing back music data for which a specific,
fixed tempo is set.
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 65).
The tempo, beat, measure and music notation is not displayed
correctly.
Some Song data for the instrument has been recorded with special
“free tempo” settings. For such Song data, the tempo, beat, mea-
sure and music notation will not be displayed correctly.

Troubleshooting
USB Audio Player/Recorder
A message indicating the drive is busy appears, and the record-
ing is aborted.
Make sure to use a compatible USB flash drive (page 95).
The USB flash drive may not have enough memory. Check the
Recordable Time on the display (page 76).
If you are using a USB flash drive to which data has already been
recorded, check first that no important data remains on the device,
and then format it (page 96) and try recording again.
Audio files cannot be selected. The file format may not be compatible with the instrument. The
compatible format is only WAV. The DRM protected files cannot be
played back.
Recorded file is played back at a different volume compared to
when it was recorded.
The audio playback volume has been changed. Setting the volume
value to 100 plays back the file at the same volume as when it was
recorded (page 74).
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. In the case of Song playback,
you can restore the original sound by returning to the beginning of
the Song and playing back from that point. In the case of Style
play, you can restore the original sound by selecting the same Style
again.

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.
