Welcome to the MU15

Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Yamaha MU15 Tone Genera-

tor!

The MU15 an advanced, yet easy-to-use tone generator providing exceptionally

high-quality Voices, built-in effects, XG format and General MIDI (GM) compat-

ibility, plus direct connection to computer — all in a highly compact and

portable package.

With the built-in host computer interface and MIDI terminals, the MU15 is ideal

for any computer music system — from connection to a simple laptop to

integration in a complete MIDI studio. It even features a two-octave keyboard

(with adjustable ten-octave range), allowing you to play the internal Voices and

enter notes to a connected sequencer. Since it’s compatible with Yamaha’s

powerful XG format, it lets you faithfully and easily playback any XG or GM

song data.

The MU15 also features 16-Part multi-timbral capacity and full 32-note poly-

phony for playback of even very sophisticated, multi-part song data. Three

independent digital effect sections give you enormous versatility in “sweeten-

ing” the sound. What’s more, the MU15 provides a host of comprehensive

editing tools for getting just the sound you need.

English

GM System Level 1

“GM System Level 1” is a standard specification that

defines the arrangement of voices in a tone generator

and its MIDI functionality, ensuring that data can be

played back with substantially the same sounds on any

GM-compatible tone generator, regardless of its manu-

facturer or model.

Tone generators and song data that meet the “GM

System Level 1” bear this GM logo.

“XG” is a tone generator format that expands the voice

arrangement of the “GM System Level 1” specification

to meet the ever-increasing demands of today’s com-

puter peripheral environment, providing richer expres-

sive power while maintaining upward compatibility of

data. “XG” greatly expands “GM System Level 1” by

defining the ways in which voices are expanded or

edited and the structure and type of effects.

When commercially available song data bearing the XG

logo is played back on a tone generator which bears the

XG logo, you will enjoy a full musical experience that

includes unlimited expansion voices and effect func-

tions.

Your MU15 package should include the items listed below. Make sure that you

have them all.

How to Use This Manual

The MU15 — What It Is and What It Can Do

The MU15 — What It Is and

What It Can Do

What It Is...

The MU15 is a compact, highly portable and easy-to-use tone

generator. It features XG compatibility with a stunning variety of 480

XG Voices (including 128 GM Voices) and 11 Drum Voices (with

Drum and SFX kits).* The MU15 has 32-Voice polyphony and is 16-

Part multi-timbral. In other words, the MU15 has 16 different Parts,

each with its own Voice, so that up to 16 different Voices can be

sounded simultaneously.

With the built-in two-octave keyboard, you can play any of the Voices

directly from the MU15 itself. Or you can play them from a con-

nected MIDI keyboard. In addition, the MU15 also has a TO HOST

terminal for easy interfacing with a computer, allowing you to play

the Voices using your favorite music software. This is where the

advanced multi-timbral capabilities come in, letting you play up to 16

different Voices at the same time.

* The MU15 has a total of 676 different Voices. A separate

TG300B mode (page 43) features 579 Voices, some of which are

diiferent than the XG set.

What It Can Do...

Here are a few ideas on how you can use the MU15. The list below

is not comprehensive, but is meant to be a general guide to the

possibilities and provide a starting point or springboard for your own

creative ideas and explorations.

Carry It With You

If you have a laptop computer (and sequencing software), simply

connect the MU15, plug in some headphones and you’ve got a

complete music making system that’s ready to go wherever you go.

English

The MU15 — What It Is and What It Can Do

Use it for composing, arranging, practicing or making/playing demos

for your band.

Perform With It

Bring it with you to a gig — as long as there’s a MIDI keyboard on

stage, you can use the high-quality sounds of MU15 in your perfor-

mance.

Multimedia

Since it’s portable and compatible with General MIDI, the MU15 is a

natural for multimedia applications. Bring it with you to a presenta-

tion — since the computer interface is built-in to the MU15, it hooks

up instantly and easily to the computer’s serial port without the need

for any other equipment.

Using With MIDI Keyboard

Use the MU15 as supplementary tone generator with your MIDI

keyboard and play the Voices of both instruments in a layer together.

Or, if your keyboard has the capability, program a “split” so that the

notes you play on the right side of the keyboard play only the Voices

of the MU15.

Using With Other MIDI Controllers

Even if you’re not a keyboard player, you can still play the MU15 with

other types of MIDI controllers. For example, use a MIDI percussion

controller to play the drum and percussion sounds of the MU15.

Guitar controllers (such as the Yamaha G50) or wind controllers (such

as the Yamaha WX5) are also available for players of those instru-

ments.

Home Studio Setup

The MU15 integrates easily into any existing setup. If you have a

MIDI keyboard, computer and sequencing software, the MU15 with

its high-quality Voices and multi-timbral capabilities can expand your

home studio system.

About General MIDI (GM)

General MIDI (GM) is a new addition to the worldwide MIDI stan-

dard. MIDI, as you know, stands for Musical Instrument Digital

Interface, and makes it possible for various electronic musical

instruments and other devices to “communicate” with each other.

For example, by connecting a sequencer to the MU15’s MIDI IN

terminal, you could play back a song on the sequencer using the

Voices of the MU15.

So, where does GM fit in all of this? One of the most important

features of General MIDI is in the standardization of Voices. This

means that a song recorded in the GM standard can be played back

on any GM-compatible tone generator and sound just as the com-

poser intended. For example, if there is an alto sax solo in the song,

it will be played by an alto sax Voice on the General MIDI tone

generator (and not by a tuba or harpsichord!). Since the MU15 is

fully GM-compatible, you can take advantage of the vast wealth of

musical material recorded in that format.

About XG

The Yamaha XG format is an extension of General MIDI, and pro-

vides a number of significant improvements and enhancements. XG-

compatible song data takes advantage of the expanded Voice set,

extensive MIDI control and built-in effects of the MU15 (as well as

other MU-series instruments).

To get the most out of XG and your MU15, we recommend using

XG-compatible instruments and software. For example, the Yamaha

CBX-K2 keyboard lets you dynamically control a variety of param-

eters in real time while you play. The XGworks sequencer software

not only lets you playback GM- or XG-compatible song data, it lets

you record your own songs — and gives you enormously powerful

and easy-to-use editing tools for adjusting detailed settings of the

MU15 that are unavailable with the panel controls.

Guided Tour

When using your MU15 for the first time, read

through this short section of the manual. It guides you

step-by-step in using many of the basic operations: setting

the instrument up, connecting it properly to other equip-

ment, and — most importantly — playing it. It also intro-

duces you to most of the other, advanced features and

operations of the instrument — enabling you to quickly

and effectively get the most out of your new MU15.

Setting Up Your MU15

Since the MU15 has a built-in keyboard, you could use it with nothing more

than a set of batteries and a proper set of stereo headphones. It can also be

used effectively with a computer in a “desktop music” system.

In this section, however, you’ll learn how to connect the MU15 in a basic

system with a MIDI keyboard and an external amplifier/speaker system. (For

basic information on MIDI and its applications, see page 91.)

What You’ll Need

• The MU15 and a proper power supply (either an AC adaptor or

batteries).

• A MIDI keyboard, electronic piano, or any instrument that can

output MIDI data.

• An amplifier speaker system, preferably stereo. Alternately, you

can use a set of stereo headphones.

• Audio connecting cables.

• A MIDI cable.

Using a Power Adaptor

Connect one end of the power adaptor (Yamaha PA-3B) to the DC IN

jack on the rear panel, and the other end to a suitable electrical

outlet.

WARNING

• Do not attempt to use an AC adaptor other than the PA-3B. The use of

an incompatible adaptor may result in irreparable damage to the MU15,

and even pose a serious shock hazard.

CAUTION

• When connecting the AC power adaptor, first make sure that the MU15

is turned off (set to STANDBY). Next, connect one end of the power

adaptor to the DC IN jack on the MU15, and connect the other end to

an appropriate AC outlet.

• The MU15 has a convenient data backup feature that maintains any

changes you’ve made to the settings, even when the power is turned

off. However, removing the batteries or disconnecting the AC adaptor

automatically clears the data and restores the factory defaults. To save

your important data, use the Dump Out function (page 65).

Power Supply

Although the MU15 will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries,

Yamaha recommends use of an AC adaptor whenever possible. Moreover, an

AC adaptor is more environmentally friendly than batteries and does not

deplete resources.

CAUTION

• Before making any connections, make sure that all equipment to be connected is

turned off.

Setting Up Your MU15

English

Using Batteries

To use the MU15 on battery power, insert six 1.5V AA size (SUM-3,

R-6 or equivalent) manganese or alkaline batteries in the battery

compartment. Make sure to follow the polarity indications on the

bottom case (and as shown below).

Securely replace the battery compartment cover when done install-

ing the batteries.

When to Replace the Batteries

When the battery power runs too low to operate the MU15, the

sound may become distorted and the following display will appear:

When this happens, replace all batteries with a complete set of six

new batteries of the same type.

CAUTION

• NEVER mix old and new batteries or different types of batteries! Also,

to prevent possible damage due to battery leakage, remove the

batteries from the instrument if it is not to be used for an extended

period of time.

Setting Up Your MU15

Powering Up

Admittedly, this is a simple operation, but you should be careful to follow the

instructions below to avoid possible damage to your equipment and speakers.

Operation

Z Turn on the power of your MIDI keyboard.

X Turn down all volume controls.

This includes the MU15 and any connected equipment.

C Turn on the power of the MU15.

Set the ON/STANDBY switch to “ON.”

V Turn on the amplifier/speaker system.

B Set the volume controls.

First, set the volume control on the MU15 to about midway or

higher, and then set the volume on the amplifier to a suitable level.

Powering Down

When you turn the power off, make sure to do it in the following

order, to prevent possible speaker damage:

1) Amplifier/speaker system

2) MU15

3) Any other connected equipment (MIDI keyboard, etc.)

CAUTION

• Even when the switch is in the “STANDBY” position, electricity is still

flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not

using the MU15, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the

wall AC outlet and remove the batteries from the MU15.

Playing the Keyboard

If you’ve set up everything properly in the instructions above, you can now play

the MU15. Press the keys on the built-in keyboard to hear the currently

selected Voice.

Try also playing the connected MIDI keyboard. As long as the keyboard is

sending MIDI data, it doesn’t matter what the MIDI channel setting is — at

least one of the Voices on the MU15 will sound. (For more information on

MIDI, see page 91.)

Playing the Demo Song

To get a taste of what is possible with the MU15, try playing the built-in Demo

Song. This showcases the high-quality Voices and the AWM tone generation

system of the MU15.

Selecting Voices

The MU15 has a total of 676 different instrument Voices. Here, we’ll select a

different Voice for playing.

Each Voice is numbered, and there are 128 Voices from which you can immedi-

ately select. (We’ll see how to select Voices outside of these 128 later.)

About Parts, Voices, and Banks

Before we go on to the next section, a little explanation about the organization

of the MU15 is needed. Here, you’ll learn about Parts, Voices, and Banks —

three important concepts around which the sounds of the MU15 are organized.

Operation

Use the VALUE buttons.

Pressing the VALUE /YES button steps up through Voice numbers

while pressing the VALUE

/NO button steps down through the

numbers.

Hold either button down to move rapidly through the numbers in the

selected direction. To move even more quickly through the num-

bers, simultaneously hold down one button, and then press (or hold

down) the other. For example, to rapidly decrease the value, simulta-

neously hold down the

/NO button and press the /YES button.

Voices

As mentioned in the section “The MU15 — What It Is and What It

Can Do,” the MU15 is capable of playing sixteen different instru-

ment sounds at the same time. Each instrument sound is called a

“Voice,” and the MU15 has 676 different Normal Voices, as well as

21 Drum Voices.

Let’s say, for example, you have a song in which you want to use the

following sixteen Voices:

Parts

For these Voices to be used simultaneously, they must be assigned

to different “Parts.” These correspond exactly to the parts of a song

or the elements of a band, such as bass, guitar, and drums.

Obviously, each Part can have its own Voice setting, but it can also

have independent settings for other aspects of the sound as well, as

we’ll see later.

NOTE

• Part 10 is normally reserved for Drum Voices, although this can be

changed. (Page 28.)

Banks

As you learned in “Selecting Voices” above, each Voice is numbered,

and there are 128 of them from which you can select. These 128

Voices make up a Voice “Bank.” The MU15 has many Banks, each

of which contain 128 Voices. By selecting a different Bank, you can

select different Voices — any of the 676 Voices available on the

MU15.

Now, let’s go on to the next sections and see how to select different

Parts, and how to select Voices on the other Banks.

Selecting Parts

In “Selecting Voices” above, you learned how to select a Voice. Here, you’ll

see how to select a different Part and select a different Voice for that Part.

Operation

Z Select the desired Part by using the PART buttons.

Pressing the PART button steps up through the Part numbers

while pressing the PART

button steps down through the num-

bers.

Hold either button down to move rapidly through the numbers in the

selected direction.

X Select a Voice for the current Part.

Do this in the normal way, by using the VALUE buttons.

Playing the MU15

Selecting Banks

As you learned in “About Parts, Voices, and Banks” above, the MU15’s 676

Voices are organized into Banks of 128 Voices each. Here, we’ll see how to

select Voices of different Banks.

Operation

Z Select the desired Part.

Do this in the normal way, by using the PART buttons.

X Select the desired Voice.

Do this in the normal way, by using the VALUE buttons.

In general, the Voice Banks feature variations on the basic Voices —

for example, the “PercOrgn” Voice has several similar sounding

organ Voices at the same Voice number, but in different Banks.

That’s why it’s a good idea to decide which type of Voice you want,

and then call up different Banks to select a specific Voice variation.

C Simultaneously hold down the XG BANK button and

press one of the VALUE buttons.

Holding down the XG BANK button and pressing the VALUE /YES

button steps up through Bank numbers while doing the same with

the VALUE

/NO button steps down through the numbers.

Notice that the Bank numbers jump to seemingly random values.

For example, if you’ve selected Voice number 005 “E.Piano1,”

holding down the XG BANK button and pressing the VALUE

/YES

button will step through the following Banks:

GrndPnoK

Bank number. (This changes to the

Voice number as soon as the XG

BANK button is released.)

…and so on.

In this way, the MU15 skips over Banks that have the same Voices

as the basic Bank (Bank 000), and lets you automatically jump to

Banks that have unique Voices for the selected Voice number. In the

above example, Banks 002 - 017 all have the same Voice for number

005: “E.Piano1.” Bank 018 has a unique Voice, followed by another

unique Voice at Bank 032, and so on.

NOTE

• When the SFX kit (XG Bank #126) or Drum kit (XG Bank #127) is

selected , the Voice number is automatically set to 001.

Playing Drum Voices

The MU15 also features a wide selection of dynamic, realistic drum and

percussion sounds. These sounds are grouped together in Drum Voices and

each note on the keyboard plays a different drum or percussion sound.

NOTE

• For details on which drum sounds are assigned to which notes of the keyboard,

refer to the Drum Map charts on pages 80 - 83.

Operation

Z Select Part 10.

Do this in the normal way, by using the PART buttons.

NOTE

• Part 10 is assigned to a Drum Voice by default. However, any Part can

be set to a Drum Voice by selecting Bank 126 or 127 for the Part.

C Play the drum sounds.

Play the sounds from the MU15’s keyboard or from a connected

MIDI keyboard.

Since the various drum/percussion sounds are spread out over

several octaves, in order to play them from the MU15, you’ll need to

change the octave setting (see next section).

Changing the Octave Setting

Although the MU15’s built-in keyboard has a two-octave range, you can

actually play it over a range of ten octaves.

Operation

Use the OCT DOWN / OCT UP buttons.

Pressing the OCT DOWN button lowers the pitch by one octave, and

pressing the OCT UP button raises it by one octave. The current

octave setting is shown in the display. (No indication appears when

the octave setting is normal.)

NOTE

• For Normal Voices (such as Piano or Strings), this changes the pitch.

For Drum Voices, this changes the drum/percussion sounds playable

from the keyboard.

You can instantly restore the normal octave setting by pressing both

OCT DOWN / OCT UP buttons simultaneously.

GrandPno

Current octave setting. (In this example,

the pitch is two octaves above normal.)

Editing a Part

The editing features of the MU15 provide various controls for changing the

Parts and setting other important operating functions. Among other things,

these let you set the Volume or Pan setting of each Part independently, change

the Velocity of the built-in keyboard, and save your edits to a connected

computer, sequencer or data storage device.

NOTE

• The Velocity and Local Control settings cannot be saved.

Editing on the MU15 is basically divided into three types of controls: Part,

Effect, and Utility. In this section, you’ll learn how to change the Note Shift

setting and the Volume setting (both Part controls). However, the instructions

given here are fundamentally the same for all editing operations. (See the

Reference section of this manual for information about the specific editing

functions.)

Changing the Note Shift and Volume Settings

The Note Shift parameter lets you change the key (pitch) of the

selected Part. This only affects the Normal Voices, and does not

change the pitch of the Drum Voices.

The Volume parameter allows you to change the level of each Part’s

Voice, letting you set a custom balance or mix of all the Parts.

Operation

Z Select the desired parameter.

For Note Shift, simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and

press the NOTE SHFT button. Doing this enters the Edit mode and

calls up the Note Shift parameter.

Playing the MU15

NoteShft

you press. For Volume, the value can be

changed over a range of 0 (minimum) to

127 (maximum).

To select Volume, hold down PLAY/EDIT and press the VOL button.

Playing the MU15

Play the MU15 keyboard (or the connected MIDI keyboard) and hear

the change in the sound of the Part.

You can continue to change the selected setting with the VALUE

buttons and play the keyboard to hear the results of the changes. If

you wish, you can also easily change the setting for different Parts

by using the PART buttons to select the desired Part. To switch

between the desired parameters, repeat step #1 above.

C To return to the Play mode, press the PLAY/EDIT button

again.

Soloing and Muting Parts

The MU15 has convenient Solo and Mute functions for selectively soloing or

muting any of the sixteen Parts. These functions are especially useful when

playing back song data from a connected computer or sequencer, since they

let you isolate specific Parts in the mix and hear how they sound by them-

selves or how the rest of the song sounds without them.

For instructions on using Solo and Mute, see pages 48 and 49.

Using the Effects

The compact MU15 is packed with an enormous amount of sonic power and

flexibility. In addition to the huge amount of instrument Voices, the MU15

features a built-in multi-effect processor with three independent digital effects:

Reverb, Chorus, and Variation.

In this section, you’ll learn how to apply the effects, change the effect type,

and set how much effect is applied for each Part. (See the Reference section

of this manual for information about specific effect parameters.)

Using Reverb and Chorus

Judicious use of Reverb creates a sense of space and enhances the

realism of the Voices. The Reverb Type that you select is applied to

all Parts; however, the amount of Reverb for each Part can be

adjusted. This lets you add special textures to the mix of a song,

such as “drenching” one Part in Reverb while another Part is kept

“dry.”

The Chorus effect section features a variety of pitch modulation

effects. These let you subtly enhance or “fatten” the sound, or

completely transform the sound in wild and unique ways. As with

Reverb, only one Chorus Type can be used for all Parts; however, the

amount of Chorus for each Part can be adjusted.

Since the methods of using Reverb and Chorus are identical, both

are covered here together.

Operation

Z Select the desired Part.

Do this in the normal way, by using the PART buttons.

X Set the Send Level controls to appropriate values.

Before you actually change the Reverb or Chorus settings, you

should set the Send Level controls, in order to properly hear the

effect and the changes you make.

Playing the MU15

English

To do this, simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and

press the REVERB SEND LVL button (for Reverb), or the CHORUS

SEND LVL button (for Chorus), and then set the value to “60” or

higher, by using the VALUE buttons.

C Select the Reverb Type (or Chorus Type) parameter.

Simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the

REVERB TYPE button (for Reverb), or the CHORUS TYPE button (for

Chorus).

V Select the desired Reverb (or Chorus) Type.

Use the VALUE buttons. For a list of the available Reverb Types, see

page 57. For a list of the available Chorus Types, see page 58.

B Set the Send Level control to the desired value.

Once you’ve selected an Reverb or Chorus Type to your satisfaction,

you can re-adjust the effect level for the selected Part (and other

Parts, too). To do this, repeat steps #1 and #2 above.

Using the Variation Effects

The Variation effect section provides a wealth of additional effects,

with which you can enhance or radically change the sound of the

Voices.

Variation can be applied to all Parts (just as with Reverb and Chorus),

or to a single selected Part. (For more information on the Variation

effect, see page 59.)

C Set the Send Level controls to appropriate values.

Before you actually change the Variation settings, you should set the

Send Level controls, in order to properly hear the effect and the

Using the MU15

with a Computer/Sequencer

By connecting the MU15 to a computer or sequencer, you have a powerful

music system for playing back songs and even creating your own songs, using

the Voices of the MU15.

First, you’ll have to make sure that the MU15 is properly connected to the

computer or sequencer, and that your music software is ready to run. (Refer to

page 37 for connection examples and instructions.) If you are using the TO

HOST terminal or if both MIDI terminals are properly connected, you should be

able to play songs from your software and enter notes to the software from

the MU15.

Using the MU15 with a MIDI Data Storage Device

You can also use the MU15 with a MIDI data storage device, such as

the Yamaha MDF3 MIDI Data Filer. This lets you save or back up

changes you’ve made in the settings of the Edit mode. Then, when

you want to recall those settings, you can transfer the appropriate

data from the storage device.

The MDF3 also allows you to play compatible song data on the

MU15 directly from the MDF3 itself, without the need of a se-

quencer.

Make sure that the MU15 is properly connected to the data storage

device (via MIDI). (Refer to page 66 for the connection example.)

Use the Dump Out function (page 65) to send data to the device.

Also refer to the owner’s manual of your data storage device for

specific operating instructions in receiving or sending data.

Setting Up

The MU15 features a built-in host computer interface, allowing you to directly

connect it to your computer — eliminating the need for installing a special

MIDI interface to your computer. This also makes it easier to use the MU15

computer music system. The MU15 can be used with the following comput-

ers: Apple Macintosh and compatibles, or IBM PC/AT and compatibles.

If your computer already has a MIDI interface, you can connect the MU15 to it

by using MIDI cables instead.

Depending on the computer or interface used, you should set the HOST

SELECT switch to the appropriate setting: MIDI, PC-1, PC-2, or Mac. For

information on proper cables, see the section “MIDI/Computer Connecting

Cables” on page 41.

• If the MU15 is connected to a computer via the TO HOST terminal and

the power of the computer is turned off, an “IlglData” (Illegal Data)

error message appears, and the MU15 may not be operable. If this

happens, turn on your computer again. If this still doesn’t resolve the

problem, turn all equipment off and then back on again.

• For Macintosh computers: You should set the MIDI interface clock

setting on the music software to 1 MHz.

• If you are using the MU15 to enter notes to the computer and wish to

hear what you are playing, you should set the music software to

“echo” the MIDI IN data to the MIDI OUT (on the computer). This is

usually done with a “MIDI Thru” or “MIDI Echo” option on the music

software.

Playing Song Data

Once you set up your computer or sequencer with the MU15, you’re ready to

play back song data using the Voices of the MU15. Although any GM-compat-

ible song data can be played, the MU15 will sound best when used with XG-

compatible song data.

By using Yamaha’s XGworks Music Sequencer software, you can create your

own XG song data. Since XGworks also features a special XG Editor, you can

conveniently and easily edit any of the “hidden” parameters of the MU15.

This gives you comprehensive control over the Voices and effects. (For more

information on the “hidden” parameters, see the “MIDI Data Format” section,

page 91.)

When you do any editing to the MU15 for your own songs, you should save

your settings (as System Exclusive data) to the computer with the Dump Out

function (page 65). It’s especially useful to record this data at the beginning of

a song, so that the MU15 will be set properly for the particular song. Make

sure to enter several measures of silence before the song starts to accommo-

date the System Exclusive data.

Play Mode

The Play mode is the default mode of the MU15 and is automatically set when

the power is turned on. The Play mode allows you to play the Voices, either

from the MU15’s keyboard or from a MIDI device. Depending on data received

via MIDI, the MU15 operates in one of two Sound Module modes: XG or

TG300B. (XG is the default.)

The Play mode also lets you select Voices, Banks, and Parts, and change the

octave setting of the keyboard. If the Edit mode is selected, you can return to

the Play mode by pressing the PLAY/EDIT button.

For general instructions and details on various Play mode operations, refer to

the Guided Tour section.

Sound Module Mode

The MU15 plays Voices in one of two Sound Module modes: XG or TG300B.

The Sound Module mode is one of the “hidden” parameters of the MU15 and

can be changed only by incoming MIDI data. Normally this data is recorded at

the start of commercially available sequenced songs. If the song data is XG-

compatible, the XG mode will be selected, letting you take advantage of the

MU15’s full performance power. If the song data is GM-compatible but

intended for another manufacturer’s tone generator, the TG300B mode will be

selected, enabling optimum playback of the song data.

You can change this setting yourself by the use of MIDI System Exclusive

messages (page 91), either as part of sequenced song data, or received from a

device that allows you to send user-specified System Exclusive data.

NOTE

• The last selected Sound Module mode is automatically enabled when the power is

turned on. However, if both the batteries and AC adaptor are removed (or if the

PLAY/EDIT button is pressed), the XG mode is automatically enabled.

When the TG300B mode is selected, the following display appears:

Play Mode

TG300B

The XG mode features 480 Normal Voices (including 42 SFX Voices) and 11

Drum Voices (including 2 SFX drum kits). The TG300B mode features 579

Normal Voices and 10 Drum Voices.

NOTE

• In the TG300B mode, the Voices can only be selected by MIDI; they cannot be

selected from the panel of the MU15.

Edit Mode

The Edit mode allows you to change various settings and parameters of the

MU15. These controls are divided into three basic types: Part (page 45), Effect

(page 56), and Utility (page 63).

The basic method of editing is fundamentally the same for all of the param-

eters. Many of the parameters can be set independently for each Part, and as

such allow you to select the Part to be edited.

NOTE

• Keep in mind that the settings you make may automatically change when playing

back song data on a connected sequencer. If you want to save your original

settings, use the Dump Out function (page 65) before playing the song.

This determines the Volume of the selected Part. The Volume

setting is graphically represented by bars in the display.

NOTE

• Keep in mind that when playing the MU15’s keyboard, the actual sound

level of a selected Part also depends on the Velocity parameter in the

Utility controls (page 64). If the Velocity setting is at or near the

minimum, the Part may be very low in level, no matter what the

Volume setting made here.

This determines the stereo position of the selected Part. The Pan

position is graphically represented by bars in the display. The “Rnd”

(Random) setting randomly assigns the Voice to a pan position. This

is useful when you want to have different Voices sound from

different random positions of the stereo image.

A double bar in the middle represents the center position (C 00),

while right pan positions are indicated by bars stretching up from the

middle, and left pan positions are indicated by bars stretching down.

Note Shift

Range: -24 - +24 semitones

Default: 0

This determines the key transposition of the selected Part, over a

total range of four octaves in semitone steps. A Note Shift setting of

“0” results in normal pitch. This parameter has no effect on the

individual drum/percussion sounds of the Drum Voices.

Solo

While a song is playing back on your computer or sequencer, you can

selectively solo any of the 16 Parts of the MU15. Solo lets you

isolate a single Part, to hear how that Part sounds by itself.

Along with Mute (page 49), Solo is an effective tool that helps you as

you edit the Parts, since it allows you to better hear how the

changes you make affect specific Voices as well as the overall

sound.

Operation

Filter Parameters — Cutoff Frequency

and Resonance

The MU15 features digital filters for each Part that allow you to change the

timbre or tone of the Voices. The filters are affected (together with the level)

by the EG (Envelope Generator) parameters, which allow you to change the

timbre over time as well. (Page 52.)

Cutoff Frequency

Range: -64 - +63

Default: 0

This determines the cutoff frequency of the filter. The filter effec-

tively takes out frequencies higher than the cutoff point and

“passes” the lower frequencies. Lower cutoff values create a

deeper, more rounded tone, while higher values create a brighter

tone.

EG (Envelope Generator) Parameters —

Attack Time and Release Time

The EG parameters allow you to shape the sound of a Part’s Voice — or, in

other words, set how the level and timbre of the Voice changes over time.

The relationship of the two EG parameters — Attack Time and Release Time —

are shown in the illustrations below. These parameters affect both the volume

of the Voice and its timbre (with the Filter parameters; page 50).

Even though the key is held for the same length of time in both

examples, the sound of the second example takes a much longer

time to reach full volume and sustains longer after the key is re-

leased.

English

Attack Time

Range: -64 - +63

Default: 0

This determines the Attack Time of the EG, or how long it takes for

the sound to reach full volume when a note is played. Higher

positive values result in a longer, slower attack. For the Filter, this

determines how long it takes for the sound to be affected by the

Filter values.

Release Time

Range: -64 - +63

Default: 0

This determines the Release Time of the EG, or how long the sound

sustains after a note is released. Higher positive values result in a

longer, slower sustain. For the Filter, this determines how long the

Filter effect continues after a note is released.

• Short percussive Voices (such as Marimba) whose sound decays very

quickly may not be affected by the Release Time parameter, depending

on how long the key is held. For example, if the key is held until the

sound completely dies out, there will be no sound to slowly sustain, no

matter what the Release Time setting is.

Vibrato Parameters — Rate, Depth, and Delay

Vibrato produces a quavering, vibrating sound in the Part’s Voice, by regularly

modulating the pitch. You can control the speed and depth of the Vibrato, as

well as the time it takes before the Vibrato effect is applied.

Vibrato Rate

Range: -64 - +63

Default: 0

This determines the speed of the Vibrato effect. Negative values

produce a very slow Vibrato, while higher values result in a faster

Vibrato sound.

Vibrato Depth

Range: -64 - +63

Default: 0

This determines the depth of the Vibrato effect. Higher values result

in a stronger, more pronounced Vibrato sound.

Vibrato Delay

Range: -64 - +63

Default: 0

This determines the delay in the start of the Vibrato effect. Delay is

effective especially for producing a natural sound on stringed

instrument Voices. For example, violin players often use delayed

Vibrato, especially while playing long notes. The Delay parameter is

useful in recreating this effect, producing a richer, more lifelike

sound. Higher values result in a longer Delay time.

The MU15 features a built-in multi-effect processor with three

independent digital effects: Reverb, Chorus, and Variation.

Reverb Parameters

Reverb recreates the sounds of various performance environments by adding

an ambient wash of delays or reflections. Several different types of Reverb

effects are available to simulate the ambience of different sized rooms.

For general information on using the Reverb effect, see page 32.

This determines the Type of Reverb effect, or the performance

environment that is simulated. When “NoEffect” is selected, the

Reverb effect is turned off.

Reverb Send Level

Range: 0 - 127

Default: 40

This determines the level of the selected Part’s Voice that is sent to

the Reverb effect. Each Part can be set independently for different

amounts of Reverb on each Voice. A value of “0” results in a

completely “dry” Voice sound.

NOTE

• Keep in mind that Reverb Type (above) must be set to something other

than “NoEffect” for this parameter to work as intended.

Chorus Parameters

Chorus uses pitch modulation to create a variety of rich, spacious-sounding

effects, including Chorus, Celeste, and Flanger.

For general information on using the Chorus effect, see page 32.

Chorus Type

Settings: NoEffect, Chorus1 - 4, Celeste1 - 4, Flanger1 - 3

Default: Chorus1

This determines the Type of Chorus effect. When “NoEffect” is

selected, the Chorus effect is turned off.

Chorus and Celeste are used to subtly enhance the sound, and

generally make it richer, fatter, and warmer. Flanger uses modulation

to create an animated, swirling motion effect, and produces a

characteristic metallic sound.

Variation Parameters

The Variation effects provide a wealth of additional tools for processing the

Voices of the MU15. It features most of the same effects found in the Reverb

and Chorus effects. This is not mere redundancy; it allows you to use two

types of Reverb or Chorus simultaneously on different Voices. For example,

you may want to have a Chorus effect on Voice and apply Flanger to another.

Variation also gives you many special effects not found in the other sections,

such as Delay, Gate Reverb, Rotary Speaker, and Wah.

Variation effects can be applied either to a single selected Part or to all Parts,

depending on the Variation Connection setting (page 60): Insertion or System.

For general information on using the Variation effect, see page 33.

Edit Mode

Variation Connection

Settings: INS (Insertion), SYS (System)

Default: INS

This determines how the Variation effect is connected in the effect

chain of the MU15. When set to “SYS” (System), Variation is

applied to all Parts, according to the amount of Variation Send Level

(page 61) set for each Part. When set to “INS” (Insertion), Variation

is applied to only the selected Part, also set in the Variation Send

Level parameter.

About “NoEffect” and “Thru”

When Variation Connection is set to “INS” and “NoEffect” is

selected, the sound for the Part is turned off (there is no “dry”

sound). When “Thru” is selected, you can hear the dry, unproc-

essed sound.

NOTE

• The 3BandEQ and 2BandEQ Types have little effect on the sound

unless the “hidden” parameters are changed via MIDI. (Page 91.)

Variation Send Level

Settings: off, on (when Variation Connection is set to “INS”)

0 - 127 (when Variation Connection is set to “SYS”)

Default: off (for “INS”)

0 (for “SYS”)

When the Variation Connection parameter (page 60) is set to “INS,”

this determines whether the Variation effect is applied to the se-

lected Part or not. Also, since the Variation effect cannot be used

simultaneously on several Parts (for “INS”), only the last Part for

which this parameter has been set to “on” will have the Variation

effect. A setting of “off” results in no Variation effect being applied.

VarSend

Edit Mode

When the Variation Connection parameter (page 60) is set to “SYS,”

this determines the level of the selected Part’s Voice that is sent to

the Variation effect. In this case, each Part can be set independently

for different amounts of Variation on each Voice. A value of “0”

results in a completely “dry” Voice sound (no Variation effect).

NOTE

• Keep in mind that Variation Type (page 60) must be set to something

other than “NoEffect” or “Thru” for this parameter to work as

intended.

• If the Variation Type is set to “NoEffect” and Variation Connection is set

to “INS,” there will be no sound for the Part. To remedy this, set the

Type to “Thru” or to one of the other effect Types. (Page 60.)

Dry Level

Range: 0 - 127

Default: 127

This determines the level or volume of the selected Part’s “dry”

sound — the sound of the Voice without the effects. Dry Level gives

you additional fine control over the effect balance. Setting this to a

low value turns down the level of the “dry” sound and emphasizes

the effect sound.

NOTE

• When Variation Connection is set to “INS,” the Dry Level parameter is

automatically set to “off” and cannot be changed.

Utility Controls

Master Tune

Range: +/- 999 (in 0.1 cent steps)

Default: 0

This determines the overall fine tuning of the MU15’s Voices. It

does not affect the pitch of the individual drum/percussion sounds of

the Drum Voices. Master Tune is especially useful for adjusting the

pitch of the MU15 when playing with other instruments. (The actual

pitch of each Part depends also on the Note Shift parameter on page

47.)

Master Tune ................ 63

Velocity ................ 64

Local Control ................ 64

Dump Out ................ 65

Initialize All ................ 68

Velocity

Range: 1 - 127

Default: 88

This determines the note on velocity of the MU15’s built-in keyboard.

All notes that you play from the panel keyboard will be at this fixed

velocity, and sound at the same level. This velocity is also transmit-

ted to connected devices via the MIDI OUT or TO HOST terminals.

However, it does not affect the incoming velocity of notes played

from a connected sequencer or external keyboard.

NOTE

• Settings of 20 or less may result in little or no sound. For normal

applications, make sure this is set to around 88 (default).

• Keep in mind that when playing the MU15’s keyboard, the actual sound

level of a selected Part also depends on the Volume parameter in the

Part controls (page 46). If the Volume setting is at or near the mini-

mum, the Part may be very low in level, no matter what the Velocity

setting made here.

Local Control

Edit Mode

Velocity

Velocity setting

LoclCtrl

Local Control

setting

English

Range: off, on

Default: on

This determines whether or not the internal tone generator responds

to the notes you play on the MU15’s keyboard. Normally, this should

be on. Setting this to “off” effectively disconnects the panel

keyboard from the internal tone generator. Even when this is set to

“off,” notes played on the keyboard are still transmitted via the TO

HOST or MIDI OUT terminals.

HINT

• A common application of Local Control is when using the MU15 to

input notes into a sequencer. If the sequencer is also set up to play

back data using the Voices of the MU15, when you play the MU15, it

will be sounding its own Voices twice — once from the keyboard, and

after a very brief delay, again from the MIDI data coming from the

sequencer. This not only decreases the available polyphony of the

MU15 by half, it also creates an undesirable flanging sound. To remedy

this, set Local Control to “off.”

• Another useful application of the “off” setting of this parameter is

when you’ve connected the MU15 to another tone generator and want

to play only that tone generator and leave the MU15 Voices silent.

Dump Out

This function allows you to save the current parameter settings of

the MU15 to a MIDI sequencer, computer or a MIDI data recorder

(such as the Yamaha MDF3 MIDI Data Filer).

Appendix

Troubleshooting

Even though the MU15 is exceptionally easy to use, it may occasionally not

function as you expect it to. If that happens, check the possible problems and

solutions below before assuming that the instrument is faulty.

Possible Cause and Solution

• If you are using an AC adaptor, check that

the adaptor properly plugged into both the

AC outlet and the MU15 (Page 18.)

• If you are using batteries, check that a

fresh set of batteries properly installed in

the battery compartment. (Page 19.)

• Check that the side panel volume control

is set to an appropriate level. (Pages 16,

21.)

• Check that other volume-related param-

eters are set to appropriate levels. (See

Velocity, page 64, and Volume, page 46.)

• Check the Mute and Solo settings.

(Pages 48, 49.) If a Part is being muted,

or an empty Part is being soloed, you may

not get any sound.

• Check that Local Control is set to on.

(Page 64.) Also check the points for “No

Sound” above.

Problem

No power.

No sound.

No sound when playing the

keyboard on the MU15.

No sound when playing the

MU15 from a computer,

sequencer or external

keyboard.

• Check all MIDI connections, making sure

that the MIDI OUT of the external device

is connected to the MIDI IN of the MU15,

and that the MIDI IN of the external

device is connected to the MIDI OUT of

the MU15. (Page 39.) Or, if you are using

the TO HOST terminal with a computer,

make sure that the terminal is properly

connected to the computer and that the

HOST SELECT switch is properly set for

your particular computer. (Page 37.)

• Check the settings of the connected MIDI

device. If Expression and Master Volume

are set to low values, the MU15 may put

out little or no sound.

• Check the Mute setting. (Page 49.) If a

Part is being muted, it will not sound.

• Check the Variation effect settings. If

Variation Connection (page 60) is set to

“INS” and Variation Type is set to

“NoEffect,” the selected Part may not

sound. Also, if Variation Type is set to

“NoEffect” or “Thru” and Dry Level is set

near or at the minimum value, the

selected Part may not sound.

• The maximum polyphony of the MU15

may be exceeded. The MU15 can play no

more than 32 notes at once.

• Check that Local Control is set to “off.”

(Page 64.) Also, check the settings on

your sequencer or computer (such as

“MIDI Thru” or “MIDI Echo”).

• This is normal, if you’ve routed the MU15

to a sequencer or computer and that

device’s “MIDI Thru” or “MIDI Echo”

option is turned on.

Problem Possible Cause and Solution

No sound of a specific Part.

Notes are cut off or omitted.

When using a sequencer or

computer, an unusual “flang-

ing” sound occurs and/or not

all notes seem to sound.

Even though Local Control is

set to “off,” the MU15

continues to sound when

playing the built-in keyboard.

Troubleshooting

English

Error Messages

Errors may occur from time to time, and when they do the MU15 will display a

message to indicate the type of problem so that you can rectify it and return to

normal operation.

“Battery”

The battery voltage is too low for proper operation. Replace the old batteries

with a set of new ones. (Page 19.)

“CheckSum” (Checksum Error)

The checksum of the received System Exclusive message is incorrect. Check

the checksum of the message and try transmitting again. (The checksum

which is calculated for the received data will be displayed.)

“IlglData” (Illegal Data)

A data error resulted during reception of MIDI messages. Try transmitting the

data again, or turn the MU15 off and back on again.

Or the MU15 is connected to a computer via the TO HOST terminal and the

power of the computer is turned off. Turn on your computer again. If this still

doesn’t resolve the problem, turn all equipment off and then back on again.

“BuffFull” (MIDI Buffer Full)

Too much MIDI data is being received by the MU15 at one time. Reduce the

amount of data being sent to the MU15.

“MIDIAdrs” (System Exclusive Address Error)

The data of the received System Exclusive message is incorrect. Check the

address of the message and try transmitting again.

“MIDIData” (System Exclusive Data Error)

An error has been detected in the MIDI System Exclusive data received by the

MU15. Check the data of the message (as to whether it requires an MSB or

LSB header) and try transmitting again.

“BulkSize” (System Exclusive Size Error)

The data of the received System Exclusive message is incorrect. Check the

size of the message and try transmitting again.

MIDI Data Format

■ What is MIDI?

MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital

Interface, a sophisticated system that allows

various electronic musical instruments and other

devices to “communicate” with each other. This

is done by sending and receiving MIDI

messages over a MIDI cable.

Since MIDI has such as a broad scope and so

many different uses, it would be impossible to

explain everything here. However, if you’re a

MIDI “novice,” the brief explanations below

will give you a good start in understanding this

powerful and flexible technology.

■ MIDI Messages

The MU15 is controlled by various types of

MIDI messages. Using them in song data on a

sequencer or from a MIDI keyboard, you can:

• Determine the Sound Module mode

• Select MIDI channels, Voices and effects

• Play the Voices

• Edit the Parts and change parameter values

• Edit the effects

● Note On/Off (Key On/Off)

These tell the MU15 which notes to play and

how long they are to be played. Velocity values

let you change the dynamics or level of the

sound, depending on how strongly you play the

keys.

● Program Change

These messages determine which Voice is

selected for each Part, and they can be inserted

at any desired location in the song. Used with

Bank Select messages, they let you access any

of the 676 Voices of the MU15.

● Control Change

These messages provide powerful, real-time

control over various aspects of the sound —

including volume, pan position, sustain,

modulation, brightness, portamento time, effect

depth, and many others. Depending on the

controllers available on your particular MIDI

instrument and their Control Change number

assignments, you can use key velocity,

aftertouch (see below) foot controllers, pedals,

sliders, performance wheels, and joysticks to

control these aspects of the sound.

● Pitch Bend

These messages let you continuously raise or

lower the pitch of the Voices as you play. They

are usually controlled with a pitch bend wheel

on a MIDI keyboard.

● Aftertouch

This is a pressure sensing function that lets you

control an assigned aspect of the sound by the

strength with which you press the keys. The

MU15 responds to both Channel (global) and

Polyphonic (individual keys) Aftertouch.

● System Exclusive

These messages let you delve even deeper into

the inner workings of the MU15, letting you

control the master volume and tuning, Sound

Module mode (XG or TG300B), Part param-

eters, effect types and parameters, and various

other settings.

One of the best and easiest ways to use System

Exclusive messages is with Yamaha’s XGworks

software. The included XG Editor window lets

you view and edit all of the MU15 parameters

from your computer. Special “Detail” buttons

on the main window give you comprehensive

control over the Parts, Drum Setups, and effects.

The changes you make are instantaneous, and

you can save all your custom settings for future

recall as System Exclusive data, either directly

to the current song or as a special XG Parameter

file.

NOTE

The XG Editor in XGworks has additional parameters (for other

XG instruments) that are not available on the MU15.

MIDI Data Format

1. Channel messages

This device transmits only NOTE ON and NOTE OFF.

1.1 Note on/note off

These messages convey keyboard performance data. Note-on

is transmitted when a note is pressed, and note-off is

transmitted when a note is released. These messages contain a

note number which indicates the key that was played, and a

“velocity” which indicates how strongly it was played. When a

note-on of velocity “0” is received, it has the same effect as a

note-off.”

Range of note numbers received = C-2...G8

Velocity range = 1...127 (Velocity is received only for note-on)

When the Multi Part parameter “Rcv NOTE MESSAGE” = OFF,

that part will not receive these messages.

For a drum part*, key-off is not received if the DrumSetup

parameter Rcv NOTE OFF = OFF.

For a drum part, key-on is not received if the DrumSetup

parameter Rcv NOTE ON = OFF.

* Drum Part indicates that the Multi Part parameter PART MODE

is “set to DRUM or DRUMS1,2.”

1.2 Control changes

These messages control volume or pan etc.

Their functions are differentiated by the control number (Ctrl#).

If the Multi Part parameter Rcv CONTROL CHANGE = OFF,

that part will not receive control changes.

1.2.1 Bank Select

This message selects the voice bank.

The voice bank is selected by the combination of two control

change messages: MSB and LSB.

Control# Parameter Data Range

0 Bank Select MSB 0, 64, 126, 127

(Normal voice,SFX voice,

SFX kit, Drum kit)

32 Bank Select LSB 0...127

In the XG mode, MSB numbers select Voice type (Normal Voice

or Drum Voice), and LSB numbers select Voice banks.

In the TG300B mode, LSB is fixed, and MSB numbers select

Voice banks.

The Bank Select data will be processed only after a Program

Change is received, and then voice bank will change at that

time. If you wish to change the voice bank as well as the voice,

you must transmit Bank Select and Program Change messages

as a set, in the order of Bank Select MSB, LSB, and Program

Change.

1.2.2 Modulation

The notes that are sounding while the pedal is pressed will be

sustained.

Control# Parameter Data Range

64 Hold1 0...63,64...127

(OFF , ON)

For data of 0...63 the sustain pedal will be OFF (released), and

for data of 64...127 it will be on (pressed).

When this is ON, currently-sounding notes will continue to

sound even if note-off messages are received.

If the Multi Part parameter Rcv HOLD1 = OFF, that part will not

receive Hold1.

1.2.9 Portamento

This message controls portamento pedal on/off.

When the pedal is pressed, a portamento effect will be applied.

Control# Parameter Data Range

65 Portamento 0...63,64...127

(OFF , ON)

For data of 0...63 the portamento pedal will be OFF (released),

and for 64...127 it will be ON (pressed).

When this is ON, the pitch will change smoothly between notes.

The time over which the pitch changes is adjusted by

Portamento Time (see 1.2.3).

Also, when the Multi Part parameter MONO/POLY MODE =

MONO, the tone will also change smoothly (legato) if

Portamento = ON.

If any of the following Multi Part parameter settings apply, that

part will not receive Portamento.

•Rcv PORTAMENTO = OFF

•PART MODE=DRUM, DRUMS1,2

1.2.10 Sostenuto

This message controls sostenuto pedal on/off.

are used to make settings related to the system of the MIDI

device.

For example, these messages can be used to save data

specific to this device on a MIDI data filer such as the MDF3.

By using these messages, it is possible to edit almost all

settings of the MU15 from an external MIDI device.

The device number of the MU15 is fixed to “All”. And when

sending these messages, it is fixed to “0”.

a MIDI cable were to be disconnected or broken

during a performance.When this message is received, the

MU100R will begin monitoring the state of the MIDI cable.

a) Transmission

not transmitted.

b) Receive

Once FE has been received, failure to receive any

MIDI message for an interval longer than approxi-

mately 300 msec will cause processing to be

performed as if ALL SOUND OFF, ALL NOTE OFF,

and RESET ALL CONTROLLERS messages were

received, and the unit will reset to a condition in which

FE was never received.

The MU15 an advanced, yet easy-to-use tone generator providing exceptionally high-quality Voices, built-in effects, XG format and General MIDI (GM) compatibility, plus direct connection to computer — all in a highly compact and portable package. With the built-in host computer interface and MIDI terminals, the MU15 is ideal for any computer music system — from connection to a simple laptop to integration in a complete MIDI studio. It even features a two-octave keyboard (with adjustable ten-octave range), allowing you to play the internal Voices and enter notes to a connected sequencer. Since it’s compatible with Yamaha’s powerful XG format, it lets you faithfully and easily playback any XG or GM song data. The MU15 also features 16-Part multi-timbral capacity and full 32-note polyphony for playback of even very sophisticated, multi-part song data. Three independent digital effect sections give you enormous versatility in “sweetening” the sound. What’s more, the MU15 provides a host of comprehensive editing tools for getting just the sound you need. 4 English GM System Level 1 “GM System Level 1” is a standard specification that defines the arrangement of voices in a tone generator and its MIDI functionality, ensuring that data can be played back with substantially the same sounds on any GM-compatible tone generator, regardless of its manufacturer or model. Tone generators and song data that meet the “GM System Level 1” bear this GM logo. XG “XG” is a tone generator format that expands the voice arrangement of the “GM System Level 1” specification to meet the ever-increasing demands of today’s computer peripheral environment, providing richer expressive power while maintaining upward compatibility of data. “XG” greatly expands “GM System Level 1” by defining the ways in which voices are expanded or edited and the structure and type of effects. When commercially available song data bearing the XG logo is played back on a tone generator which bears the XG logo, you will enjoy a full musical experience that includes unlimited expansion voices and effect functions. Your MU15 package should include the items listed below. Make sure that you have them all. • MU15 • Owner’s Manual 5 Table of Contents How to Use This Manual .......................................................................................... 8 The

Since the MU15 is so easy to use, you could play it right “out of the box” without even having to glance at the manual. However, to get the most out of your MU15 and to avoid damaging it, we strongly suggest that you take time to read the sections introduced below. The structure of the manual is very straightforward. You can approach it in a linear manner, reading through from beginning to end, or on an “on-demand” basis, going directly to the information as you need it. 1) Precautions Read this section very carefully for important information on how to care for your new MU15, how to avoid damaging it, and how to ensure long-term, reliable operation. 2) The MU15 — What It Is and What It Can Do This briefly provides an overview of the functions and features of the MU15 and offers some important hints on how you can use it effectively. 3) Panel Controls and Terminals This section introduces you to the panel controls and terminals of the MU15, and where applicable provides convenient page references for more information. 4) Guided Tour This is perhaps the most important and valuable section of the manual. It gets you started using your new MU15, helping you set up the instrument, integrate it into your music system, and play it. It also introduces you to virtually all of the important functions and features. The hands-on experience that you gain in this section will help you quickly master the instrument and aid you in navigating the more detailed sections of the manual. 8 How to Use This Manual 5) Reference English Once you’re familiar with everything above, lightly go over this comprehensive guide to all editing functions. You won’t need (or want) to read everything at once, but it is there for you to refer to when you need information about a certain feature or function. 6) Appendix Use the sections in the Appendix as necessary. For example, the Index will come in handy when you need to quickly find information on a specific topic. Other sections, such as Troubleshooting and Error Messages, provide additional useful information. 7) Sound List & MIDI Data This section features lists of the Voices, drum sounds, effect types and parameters, as well as details on all relevant MIDI messages and data. NOTE • The illustrations and LCD screens as shown in this owner’s manual are for instructional purposes only, and may appear somewhat different from those on your instrument. 9 The MU15 — What It Is and What It Can Do The MU15 — What It Is and What It Can Do What It Is... The MU15 is a compact, highly portable and easy-to-use tone generator. It features XG compatibility with a stunning variety of 480 XG Voices (including 128 GM Voices) and 11 Drum Voices (with Drum and SFX kits).* The MU15 has 32-Voice polyphony and is 16Part multi-timbral. In other words, the MU15 has 16 different Parts, each with its own Voice, so that up to 16 different Voices can be sounded simultaneously. With the built-in two-octave keyboard, you can play any of the Voices directly from the MU15 itself. Or you can play them from a connected MIDI keyboard. In addition, the MU15 also has a TO HOST terminal for easy interfacing with a computer, allowing you to play the Voices using your favorite music software. This is where the advanced multi-timbral capabilities come in, letting you play up to 16 different Voices at the same time. * The MU15 has a total of 676 different Voices. A separate TG300B mode (page 43) features 579 Voices, some of which are diiferent than the XG set. What It Can Do... Here are a few ideas on how you can use the MU15. The list below is not comprehensive, but is meant to be a general guide to the possibilities and provide a starting point or springboard for your own creative ideas and explorations. Carry It With You If you have a laptop computer (and sequencing software), simply connect the MU15, plug in some headphones and you’ve got a complete music making system that’s ready to go wherever you go. 10 The MU15 — What It Is and What It Can Do English Use it for composing, arranging, practicing or making/playing demos for your band. Perform With It Bring it with you to a gig — as long as there’s a MIDI keyboard on stage, you can use the high-quality sounds of MU15 in your performance. Multimedia Since it’s portable and compatible with General MIDI, the MU15 is a natural for multimedia applications. Bring it with you to a presentation — since the computer interface is built-in to the MU15, it hooks up instantly and easily to the computer’s serial port without the need for any other equipment. Using With MIDI Keyboard Use the MU15 as supplementary tone generator with your MIDI keyboard and play the Voices of both instruments in a layer together. Or, if your keyboard has the capability, program a “split” so that the notes you play on the right side of the keyboard play only the Voices of the MU15. Using With Other MIDI Controllers Even if you’re not a keyboard player, you can still play the MU15 with other types of MIDI controllers. For example, use a MIDI percussion controller to play the drum and percussion sounds of the MU15. Guitar controllers (such as the Yamaha G50) or wind controllers (such as the Yamaha WX5) are also available for players of those instruments. Home Studio Setup The MU15 integrates easily into any existing setup. If you have a MIDI keyboard, computer and sequencing software, the MU15 with its high-quality Voices and multi-timbral capabilities can expand your home studio system. 11 The MU15 — What It Is and What It Can Do About General MIDI (GM) General MIDI (GM) is a new addition to the worldwide MIDI standard. MIDI, as you know, stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, and makes it possible for various electronic musical instruments and other devices to “communicate” with each other. For example, by connecting a sequencer to the MU15’s MIDI IN terminal, you could play back a song on the sequencer using the Voices of the MU15. So, where does GM fit in all of this? One of the most important features of General MIDI is in the standardization of Voices. This means that a song recorded in the GM standard can be played back on any GM-compatible tone generator and sound just as the composer intended. For example, if there is an alto sax solo in the song, it will be played by an alto sax Voice on the General MIDI tone generator (and not by a tuba or harpsichord!). Since the MU15 is fully GM-compatible, you can take advantage of the vast wealth of musical material recorded in that format. About XG The Yamaha XG format is an extension of General MIDI, and provides a number of significant improvements and enhancements. XGcompatible song data takes advantage of the expanded Voice set, extensive MIDI control and built-in effects of the MU15 (as well as other MU-series instruments). To get the most out of XG and your MU15, we recommend using XG-compatible instruments and software. For example, the Yamaha CBX-K2 keyboard lets you dynamically control a variety of parameters in real time while you play. The XGworks sequencer software not only lets you playback GM- or XG-compatible song data, it lets you record your own songs — and gives you enormously powerful and easy-to-use editing tools for adjusting detailed settings of the MU15 that are unavailable with the panel controls. 12 P a n e l C o n t r o l s a n d Te r m i n a l s English Panel Controls and Terminals Front Panel q w e r t GrandPno y u q Display In the Play mode, this shows the Part number, the currently selected program number and Voice name for the Part.

It guides you step-by-step in using many of the basic operations: setting the instrument up, connecting it properly to other equipment, and — most importantly — playing it. It also introduces you to most of the other, advanced features and operations of the instrument — enabling you to quickly and effectively get the most out of your new MU15. Setting Up Your MU15 Since the MU15 has a built-in keyboard, you could use it with nothing more than a set of batteries and a proper set of stereo headphones. It can also be used effectively with a computer in a “desktop music” system. In this section, however, you’ll learn how to connect the MU15 in a basic system with a MIDI keyboard and an external amplifier/speaker system. (For basic information on MIDI and its applications, see page 91.) What You’ll Need • The MU15 and a proper power supply (either an AC adaptor or batteries). • A MIDI keyboard, electronic piano, or any instrument that can output MIDI data. • An amplifier speaker system, preferably stereo. Alternately, you can use a set of stereo headphones. • Audio connecting cables. • A MIDI cable. 17 Setting Up Your MU15 Power Supply Although the MU15 will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries, Yamaha recommends use of an AC adaptor whenever possible. Moreover, an AC adaptor is more environmentally friendly than batteries and does not deplete resources. • CAUTION Before making any connections, make sure that all equipment to be connected is turned off. Using a Power Adaptor Connect one end of the power adaptor (Yamaha PA-3B) to the DC IN jack on the rear panel, and the other end to a suitable electrical outlet. • WARNING Do not attempt to use an AC adaptor other than the PA-3B. The use of an incompatible adaptor may result in irreparable damage to the MU15, and even pose a serious shock hazard. CAUTION When connecting the AC power adaptor, first make sure that the MU15 is turned off (set to STANDBY). Next, connect one end of the power adaptor to the DC IN jack on the MU15, and connect the other end to an appropriate AC outlet. • The MU15 has a convenient data backup feature that maintains any changes you’ve made to the settings, even when the power is turned off. However, removing the batteries or disconnecting the AC adaptor automatically clears the data and restores the factory defaults. To save your important data, use the Dump Out function (page 65). • 18 Setting Up Your MU15 Using Batteries English To use the MU15 on battery power, insert six 1.5V AA size (SUM-3, R-6 or equivalent) manganese or alkaline batteries in the battery compartment. Make sure to follow the polarity indications on the bottom case (and as shown below). Securely replace the battery compartment cover when done installing the batteries. When to Replace the Batteries When the battery power runs too low to operate the MU15, the sound may become distorted and the following display will appear: Battery When this happens, replace all batteries with a complete set of six new batteries of the same type. • CAUTION NEVER mix old and new batteries or different types of batteries! Also, to prevent possible damage due to battery leakage, remove the batteries from the instrument if it is not to be used for an extended period of time. 19 Setting Up Your MU15 Making the Connections • CAUTION Before making any connections, turn all related equipment off, and make sure the MU15’s power adaptor is not connected to an electrical outlet. Operation Z Connect the MIDI cable. Connect the MIDI OUT terminal of the MIDI keyboard to the MIDI IN terminal of the MU15 (as shown in the illustration). X Connect the audio cables. If you are using an external sound system, connect the LINE OUT/ PHONES jack on the side of the MU15 to the appropriate inputs of the sound system (as shown). Use a stereo mini-plug to dual RCA pin “Y” cable (available at many audio and musical instrument dealers). If you are using stereo headphones (with a stereo mini-plug), connect them to the same LINE OUT/PHONES jack on the MU15. C Set the HOST SELECT switch. Set this rear panel to “MIDI” (as shown). MIDI IN GrandPno LINE OUT/ PHONES MIDI MIDI OUT MIDI keyboard Amplifier/speaker system 20 Setting Up Your MU15 Powering Up English Admittedly, this is a simple operation, but you should be careful to follow the instructions below to avoid possible damage to your equipment and speakers. Operation Z Turn on the power of your MIDI keyboard. X Turn down all volume controls. This includes the MU15 and any connected equipment. C Turn on the power of the MU15. Set the ON/STANDBY switch to “ON.” V Turn on the amplifier/speaker system. B Set the volume controls. First, set the volume control on the MU15 to about midway or higher, and then set the volume on the amplifier to a suitable level. Powering Down When you turn the power off, make sure to do it in the following order, to prevent possible speaker damage: 1) Amplifier/speaker system 2) MU15 3) Any other connected equipment (MIDI keyboard, etc.) • CAUTION Even when the switch is in the “STANDBY” position, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the MU15, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet and remove the batteries from the MU15. 21 Playing the MU15 Playing the MU15 Playing the Keyboard If you’ve set up everything properly in the instructions above, you can now play the MU15. Press the keys on the built-in keyboard to hear the currently selected Voice. Try also playing the connected MIDI keyboard. As long as the keyboard is sending MIDI data, it doesn’t matter what the MIDI channel setting is — at least one of the Voices on the MU15 will sound. (For more information on MIDI, see page 91.) Playing the Demo Song To get a taste of what is possible with the MU15, try playing the built-in Demo Song. This showcases the high-quality Voices and the AWM tone generation system of the MU15. Operation Z Simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the VALUE /YES button. DemoSong “DemoSong” and “PressYES” alternately appear in the display. 22 Playing the MU15 X Start the song by pressing the VALUE /YES button. English The Demo Song starts playing immediately and repeats indefinitely until stopped (in step #3 below). Playback of the individual Parts of the song is shown graphically by the “level meter” bars in the display. • CAUTION Once you play the demo song, any edits that you’ve made to the MU15 will be cleared (with the exception of the Velocity, Local Control and Octave settings). To save your important data, use the Dump Out function (page 65). NOTE • During Demo Song playback, all panel controls (except the VALUE NO button and the VOLUME control) cannot be used. C To stop playback of the song, press the VALUE button. / /NO V To exit from the Demo Song function and return to the Play mode, press the PLAY/EDIT button or the VALUE /NO button. *Demo Song Credit Programmed and Composed by Gigbag (Presto Inc.) 23 Playing the MU15 Selecting Voices The MU15 has a total of 676 different instrument Voices. Here, we’ll select a different Voice for playing. Each Voice is numbered, and there are 128 Voices from which you can immediately select. (We’ll see how to select Voices outside of these 128 later.) Operation Use the VALUE buttons. Pressing the VALUE /YES button steps up through Voice numbers while pressing the VALUE /NO button steps down through the numbers. BritePno Voice number Voice name Hold either button down to move rapidly through the numbers in the selected direction. To move even more quickly through the numbers, simultaneously hold down one button, and then press (or hold down) the other. For example, to rapidly decrease the value, simultaneously hold down the /NO button and press the /YES button. About Parts, Voices, and Banks Before we go on to the next section, a little explanation about the organization of the MU15 is needed. Here, you’ll learn about Parts, Voices, and Banks — three important concepts around which the sounds of the MU15 are organized. 24 Playing the MU15 Voices English As mentioned in the section “The MU15 — What It Is and What It Can Do,” the MU15 is capable of playing sixteen different instrument sounds at the same time. Each instrument sound is called a “Voice,” and the MU15 has 676 different Normal Voices, as well as 21 Drum Voices. Let’s say, for example, you have a song in which you want to use the following sixteen Voices: Grand Piano Pick Bass Steel Guitar Rock Organ Tenor Sax Alto Sax Trumpet Flute Marimba Drums Violin Cello Strings Warm Pad Sweep Pad Saw Lead Parts For these Voices to be used simultaneously, they must be assigned to different “Parts.” These correspond exactly to the parts of a song or the elements of a band, such as bass, guitar, and drums. Part 1 Grand Piano Part 2 Pick Bass Part 3 Steel Guitar Part 4 Rock Organ Part 5 Tenor Sax Part 6 Alto Sax Part 7 Trumpet Part 8 Flute Part 9 Marimba Part 10 Drums Part 11 Violin Part 12 Cello Part 13 Strings Part 14 Warm Pad Part 15 Sweep Pad Part 16 Saw Lead Obviously, each Part can have its own Voice setting, but it can also have independent settings for other aspects of the sound as well, as we’ll see later. NOTE • Part 10 is normally reserved for Drum Voices, although this can be changed. (Page 28.) 25 Playing the MU15 Banks As you learned in “Selecting Voices” above, each Voice is numbered, and there are 128 of them from which you can select. These 128 Voices make up a Voice “Bank.” The MU15 has many Banks, each of which contain 128 Voices. By selecting a different Bank, you can select different Voices — any of the 676 Voices available on the MU15. Now, let’s go on to the next sections and see how to select different Parts, and how to select Voices on the other Banks. Selecting Parts In “Selecting Voices” above, you learned how to select a Voice. Here, you’ll see how to select a different Part and select a different Voice for that Part. Operation Z Select the desired Part by using the PART buttons. Pressing the PART button steps up through the Part numbers button steps down through the numwhile pressing the PART bers. GrandPno Part number Hold either button down to move rapidly through the numbers in the selected direction. X Select a Voice for the current Part. Do this in the normal way, by using the VALUE buttons. 26 Playing the MU15 Selecting Banks English As you learned in “About Parts, Voices, and Banks” above, the MU15’s 676 Voices are organized into Banks of 128 Voices each. Here, we’ll see how to select Voices of different Banks. Operation Z Select the desired Part. Do this in the normal way, by using the PART buttons. X Select the desired Voice. Do this in the normal way, by using the VALUE buttons. In general, the Voice Banks feature variations on the basic Voices — for example, the “PercOrgn” Voice has several similar sounding organ Voices at the same Voice number, but in different Banks. That’s why it’s a good idea to decide which type of Voice you want, and then call up different Banks to select a specific Voice variation. C Simultaneously hold down the XG BANK button and press one of the VALUE buttons. GrndPnoK Bank number. (This changes to the Voice number as soon as the XG BANK button is released.) Holding down the XG BANK button and pressing the VALUE /YES button steps up through Bank numbers while doing the same with the VALUE /NO button steps down through the numbers. Notice that the Bank numbers jump to seemingly random values. For example, if you’ve selected Voice number 005 “E.Piano1,” holding down the XG BANK button and pressing the VALUE /YES button will step through the following Banks: 27 Playing the MU15 E.Piano1 El.Pno1K MelloEP1 Chor.EP1 …and so on. In this way, the MU15 skips over Banks that have the same Voices as the basic Bank (Bank 000), and lets you automatically jump to Banks that have unique Voices for the selected Voice number. In the above example, Banks 002 - 017 all have the same Voice for number 005: “E.Piano1.” Bank 018 has a unique Voice, followed by another unique Voice at Bank 032, and so on. NOTE • When the SFX kit (XG Bank #126) or Drum kit (XG Bank #127) is selected , the Voice number is automatically set to 001. Playing Drum Voices The MU15 also features a wide selection of dynamic, realistic drum and percussion sounds. These sounds are grouped together in Drum Voices and each note on the keyboard plays a different drum or percussion sound. NOTE • For details on which drum sounds are assigned to which notes of the keyboard, refer to the Drum Map charts on pages 80 - 83. Operation Z Select Part 10. Do this in the normal way, by using the PART buttons. NOTE • Part 10 is assigned to a Drum Voice by default. However, any Part can be set to a Drum Voice by selecting Bank 126 or 127 for the Part. 28 Playing the MU15 X Select the desired Drum Voice. English Do this in the normal way, by using the VALUE buttons. C Play the drum sounds. Play the sounds from the MU15’s keyboard or from a connected MIDI keyboard. Since the various drum/percussion sounds are spread out over several octaves, in order to play them from the MU15, you’ll need to change the octave setting (see next section). Changing the Octave Setting Although the MU15’s built-in keyboard has a two-octave range, you can actually play it over a range of ten octaves. Operation Use the OCT DOWN / OCT UP buttons. Pressing the OCT DOWN button lowers the pitch by one octave, and pressing the OCT UP button raises it by one octave. The current octave setting is shown in the display. (No indication appears when the octave setting is normal.) GrandPno Current octave setting. (In this example, the pitch is two octaves above normal.) NOTE • For Normal Voices (such as Piano or Strings), this changes the pitch. For Drum Voices, this changes the drum/percussion sounds playable from the keyboard. You can instantly restore the normal octave setting by pressing both OCT DOWN / OCT UP buttons simultaneously. 29 Playing the MU15 Editing a Part The editing features of the MU15 provide various controls for changing the Parts and setting other important operating functions. Among other things, these let you set the Volume or Pan setting of each Part independently, change the Velocity of the built-in keyboard, and save your edits to a connected computer, sequencer or data storage device. NOTE • The Velocity and Local Control settings cannot be saved. Editing on the MU15 is basically divided into three types of controls: Part, Effect, and Utility. In this section, you’ll learn how to change the Note Shift setting and the Volume setting (both Part controls). However, the instructions given here are fundamentally the same for all editing operations. (See the Reference section of this manual for information about the specific editing functions.) Changing the Note Shift and Volume Settings The Note Shift parameter lets you change the key (pitch) of the selected Part. This only affects the Normal Voices, and does not change the pitch of the Drum Voices. The Volume parameter allows you to change the level of each Part’s Voice, letting you set a custom balance or mix of all the Parts. Operation Z Select the desired parameter. For Note Shift, simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the NOTE SHFT button. Doing this enters the Edit mode and calls up the Note Shift parameter. NoteShft Current Note Shift value 30 Playing the MU15 To select Volume, hold down PLAY/EDIT and press the VOL button. English X Change the value. Use the VALUE buttons. For Note Shift, the value changes in semitone steps up or down, depending on which VALUE button you press. For Volume, the value can be changed over a range of 0 (minimum) to 127 (maximum). Play the MU15 keyboard (or the connected MIDI keyboard) and hear the change in the sound of the Part. You can continue to change the selected setting with the VALUE buttons and play the keyboard to hear the results of the changes. If you wish, you can also easily change the setting for different Parts by using the PART buttons to select the desired Part. To switch between the desired parameters, repeat step #1 above. C To return to the Play mode, press the PLAY/EDIT button again. Soloing and Muting Parts The MU15 has convenient Solo and Mute functions for selectively soloing or muting any of the sixteen Parts. These functions are especially useful when playing back song data from a connected computer or sequencer, since they let you isolate specific Parts in the mix and hear how they sound by themselves or how the rest of the song sounds without them. For instructions on using Solo and Mute, see pages 48 and 49. 31 Playing the MU15 Using the Effects The compact MU15 is packed with an enormous amount of sonic power and flexibility. In addition to the huge amount of instrument Voices, the MU15 features a built-in multi-effect processor with three independent digital effects: Reverb, Chorus, and Variation. In this section, you’ll learn how to apply the effects, change the effect type, and set how much effect is applied for each Part. (See the Reference section of this manual for information about specific effect parameters.) Using Reverb and Chorus Judicious use of Reverb creates a sense of space and enhances the realism of the Voices. The Reverb Type that you select is applied to all Parts; however, the amount of Reverb for each Part can be adjusted. This lets you add special textures to the mix of a song, such as “drenching” one Part in Reverb while another Part is kept “dry.” The Chorus effect section features a variety of pitch modulation effects. These let you subtly enhance or “fatten” the sound, or completely transform the sound in wild and unique ways. As with Reverb, only one Chorus Type can be used for all Parts; however, the amount of Chorus for each Part can be adjusted. Since the methods of using Reverb and Chorus are identical, both are covered here together. Operation Z Select the desired Part. Do this in the normal way, by using the PART buttons. X Set the Send Level controls to appropriate values. Before you actually change the Reverb or Chorus settings, you should set the Send Level controls, in order to properly hear the effect and the changes you make. 32 Playing the MU15 English To do this, simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the REVERB SEND LVL button (for Reverb), or the CHORUS SEND LVL button (for Chorus), and then set the value to “60” or higher, by using the VALUE buttons. RevSend C Select the Reverb Type (or Chorus Type) parameter. Simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the REVERB TYPE button (for Reverb), or the CHORUS TYPE button (for Chorus). Hall1 V Select the desired Reverb (or Chorus) Type. Use the VALUE buttons. For a list of the available Reverb Types, see page 57. For a list of the available Chorus Types, see page 58. B Set the Send Level control to the desired value. Once you’ve selected an Reverb or Chorus Type to your satisfaction, you can re-adjust the effect level for the selected Part (and other Parts, too). To do this, repeat steps #1 and #2 above. Using the Variation Effects The Variation effect section provides a wealth of additional effects, with which you can enhance or radically change the sound of the Voices. Variation can be applied to all Parts (just as with Reverb and Chorus), or to a single selected Part. (For more information on the Variation effect, see page 59.) 33 Playing the MU15 Operation Z Select the desired Part. Do this in the normal way, by using the PART buttons. X Set Variation Connection to “SYS” (System). Setting the Variation Connection parameter to “SYS” allows you to use the Variation effect for all Parts. (For instructions on using the “INS” or Insertion setting, see the boxed section on page 35.) To do this, simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the INS SYS button, and then set the parameter to “SYS,” by pressing the VALUE /YES button. SYS C Set the Send Level controls to appropriate values. Before you actually change the Variation settings, you should set the Send Level controls, in order to properly hear the effect and the changes you make. To do this, simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the VARIATION SEND LVL button, and then set the value to “60” or higher, by using the VALUE buttons. VarSend V Select the Variation Type parameter. Simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the VARIATION TYPE button. DelayLCR 34 Playing the MU15 B Select the desired Variation Type. English Use the VALUE buttons. For a list of the available Variation Types, see page 60. N Set the Send Level control to the desired value. Once you’ve selected a Variation Type to your satisfaction, you can re-adjust the effect level for the selected Part (and other Parts, too). To do this, repeat steps #1 and #3 above. M Set the Dry Level control to the desired value. This parameter gives you additional fine control over the Variation effect balance. Setting this to a low value turns down the level of the “dry” sound and emphasizes the Variation effect sound. To do this, simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the DRY LVL button, and then set the value by using the VALUE buttons. DryLevel Using the “INS” (Insertion) Setting The “INS” (Insertion) setting lets you dedicate the Variation effect to a single selected Part. NOTE • For the “INS” setting, the Send Level parameter can only be turned on or off for the selected Part, and the Dry Level parameter is unavailable. 1) Select the desired Part. 2) Set Variation Connection to “INS.” Simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the INS SYS button, and then press the VALUE /NO button. 3) Set the Send Level for the Part to “on.” Simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the VARIATION SEND LVL button, and then press the VALUE /YES button. 4) Select the desired Variation Type in the same way as described in steps #4 and #5 in the main instructions above. 35 Using the MU15 with a Computer/Sequencer Using the MU15 with a Computer/Sequencer By connecting the MU15 to a computer or sequencer, you have a powerful music system for playing back songs and even creating your own songs, using the Voices of the MU15. First, you’ll have to make sure that the MU15 is properly connected to the computer or sequencer, and that your music software is ready to run. (Refer to page 37 for connection examples and instructions.) If you are using the TO HOST terminal or if both MIDI terminals are properly connected, you should be able to play songs from your software and enter notes to the software from the MU15. Using the MU15 with a MIDI Data Storage Device You can also use the MU15 with a MIDI data storage device, such as the Yamaha MDF3 MIDI Data Filer. This lets you save or back up changes you’ve made in the settings of the Edit mode. Then, when you want to recall those settings, you can transfer the appropriate data from the storage device. The MDF3 also allows you to play compatible song data on the MU15 directly from the MDF3 itself, without the need of a sequencer. Make sure that the MU15 is properly connected to the data storage device (via MIDI). (Refer to page 66 for the connection example.) Use the Dump Out function (page 65) to send data to the device. Also refer to the owner’s manual of your data storage device for specific operating instructions in receiving or sending data. Setting Up The MU15 features a built-in host computer interface, allowing you to directly connect it to your computer — eliminating the need for installing a special MIDI interface to your computer. This also makes it easier to use the MU15 36 Using the MU15 with a Computer/Sequencer English with a laptop computer, giving you an exceptionally portable yet powerful computer music system. The MU15 can be used with the following computers: Apple Macintosh and compatibles, or IBM PC/AT and compatibles. If your computer already has a MIDI interface, you can connect the MU15 to it by using MIDI cables instead. Depending on the computer or interface used, you should set the HOST SELECT switch to the appropriate setting: MIDI, PC-1, PC-2, or Mac. For information on proper cables, see the section “MIDI/Computer Connecting Cables” on page 41. NOTE • The PC-1 setting is designed only for use with computers in the Japanese domestic market. Operation Z Set the HOST SELECT switch (on the rear panel) to the appropriate setting. For connecting to a MIDI interface: MIDI For IBM PC/AT and compatibles: PC-2 For Apple Macintosh and compatibles: Mac X Connect the equipment as shown in the illustrations below. If you are connecting directly to the TO HOST terminal, make sure to use the following standard cable types: For IBM PC/AT and compatibles: D-SUB 9-pin to mini DIN 8-pin (page 41) For Apple Macintosh and compatibles: 8-pin Macintosh peripheral cable (page 41) 37 Using the MU15 with a Computer/Sequencer C Turn on the power of the computer first, and then the MU15. V Start up your music software, and (if necessary) set the appropriate options on the software for operation with the MU15.

You can obtain this driver from your local Yamaha dealer, or download it via the Internet at: http://www.yamaha.co.jp/english/xg/utility/tools.html • If the MU15 is connected to a computer via the TO HOST terminal and the power of the computer is turned off, an “IlglData” (Illegal Data) error message appears, and the MU15 may not be operable. If this happens, turn on your computer again. If this still doesn’t resolve the problem, turn all equipment off and then back on again. • For Macintosh computers: You should set the MIDI interface clock setting on the music software to 1 MHz. • If you are using the MU15 to enter notes to the computer and wish to hear what you are playing, you should set the music software to “echo” the MIDI IN data to the MIDI OUT (on the computer). This is usually done with a “MIDI Thru” or “MIDI Echo” option on the music software. 39 Using the MU15 with a Computer/Sequencer Playing Song Data Once you set up your computer or sequencer with the MU15, you’re ready to play back song data using the Voices of the MU15. Although any GM-compatible song data can be played, the MU15 will sound best when used with XGcompatible song data. By using Yamaha’s XGworks Music Sequencer software, you can create your own XG song data. Since XGworks also features a special XG Editor, you can conveniently and easily edit any of the “hidden” parameters of the MU15. This gives you comprehensive control over the Voices and effects. (For more information on the “hidden” parameters, see the “MIDI Data Format” section, page 91.) When you do any editing to the MU15 for your own songs, you should save your settings (as System Exclusive data) to the computer with the Dump Out function (page 65). It’s especially useful to record this data at the beginning of a song, so that the MU15 will be set properly for the particular song. Make sure to enter several measures of silence before the song starts to accommodate the System Exclusive data. 40 Using the MU15 with a Computer/Sequencer MIDI/Computer Connecting Cables English MIDI Standard MIDI cable.

To find out more about how to best use your MU15, look through the Reference section that follows and try out some of the functions and operations that interest you. 41 Reference The Reference section of this manual covers in detail all of the functions of the MU15. Refer to it when you need information about a specific function, feature, or operation. Function Tree Play Mode Part Select Voice Select Bank Select Octave Down/Up Demo Song Edit Mode Part Controls Effect Controls Utility Controls 42 Volume Pan Note Shift Solo Mute Filter EG Vibrato Reverb Chorus Variation Master Tune Velocity Local Control Dump Out Initialize All Play Mode English Play Mode The Play mode is the default mode of the MU15 and is automatically set when the power is turned on. The Play mode allows you to play the Voices, either from the MU15’s keyboard or from a MIDI device. Depending on data received via MIDI, the MU15 operates in one of two Sound Module modes: XG or TG300B. (XG is the default.) The Play mode also lets you select Voices, Banks, and Parts, and change the octave setting of the keyboard. If the Edit mode is selected, you can return to the Play mode by pressing the PLAY/EDIT button. For general instructions and details on various Play mode operations, refer to the Guided Tour section. Sound Module Mode The MU15 plays Voices in one of two Sound Module modes: XG or TG300B. The Sound Module mode is one of the “hidden” parameters of the MU15 and can be changed only by incoming MIDI data. Normally this data is recorded at the start of commercially available sequenced songs. If the song data is XGcompatible, the XG mode will be selected, letting you take advantage of the MU15’s full performance power. If the song data is GM-compatible but intended for another manufacturer’s tone generator, the TG300B mode will be selected, enabling optimum playback of the song data. You can change this setting yourself by the use of MIDI System Exclusive messages (page 91), either as part of sequenced song data, or received from a device that allows you to send user-specified System Exclusive data. NOTE • The last selected Sound Module mode is automatically enabled when the power is turned on. However, if both the batteries and AC adaptor are removed (or if the PLAY/EDIT button is pressed), the XG mode is automatically enabled. When the TG300B mode is selected, the following display appears: *TG300B* 43 Edit Mode The XG mode features 480 Normal Voices (including 42 SFX Voices) and 11 Drum Voices (including 2 SFX drum kits). The TG300B mode features 579 Normal Voices and 10 Drum Voices. NOTE • In the TG300B mode, the Voices can only be selected by MIDI; they cannot be selected from the panel of the MU15. Edit Mode The Edit mode allows you to change various settings and parameters of the MU15. These controls are divided into three basic types: Part (page 45), Effect (page 56), and Utility (page 63). The basic method of editing is fundamentally the same for all of the parameters. Many of the parameters can be set independently for each Part, and as such allow you to select the Part to be edited. NOTE • Keep in mind that the settings you make may automatically change when playing back song data on a connected sequencer. If you want to save your original settings, use the Dump Out function (page 65) before playing the song. Operation Z Select the desired edit parameter. To do this, simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the appropriate button. X Select the desired Part (if necessary). Use the PART buttons. 44 Edit Mode English NOTE • Selecting a Part does not apply to the Utility controls or Effect controls, except for the Send Level parameters (pages 57, 59, 61) and Dry Level (when Variation Connection is set to “SYS”; page 62). Once you’ve selected a certain parameter, you can instantly return to that parameter from the Play mode by simply pressing the PLAY/ EDIT button. C Change the setting or value. Use the VALUE buttons. You can rapidly increase or decrease the value by holding down the appropriate button. For even faster editing, simultaneously hold down one button, and then press (or hold down) the other. For example, to rapidly decrease the value, simultaneously hold down the /NO button and press the /YES button. Part Controls Volume ................ 46 Pan ................ 47 Note Shift ................ 47 Solo ................ 48 Mute ................ 49 Filter EG Vibrato Cutoff ................ 50 Resonance ................ 51 Attack Time .......... 52, 53 Release Time .......... 52, 53 Rate ................ 54 Depth ................ 54 Delay ................ 55 45 Edit Mode The Part controls allow you to change certain parameters for each Part. These include Volume, Pan, Note Shift, Filter, EG (Envelope Generator) and Vibrato. All of these parameters can be set independently for each Part, giving you enormous and flexible control over the sound. Also included in the Part controls are the convenient Solo and Mute functions. The Effect Send Level parameters (pages 57, 59, 61) can also be adjusted for each Part. Volume Volume setting Volume Selected Part Graphically shows Volume position for each Part. Range: 0 - 127 Default: 100 This determines the Volume of the selected Part. The Volume setting is graphically represented by bars in the display. NOTE • Keep in mind that when playing the MU15’s keyboard, the actual sound level of a selected Part also depends on the Velocity parameter in the Utility controls (page 64). If the Velocity setting is at or near the minimum, the Part may be very low in level, no matter what the Volume setting made here. 46 Edit Mode Pan English Pan setting Pan Selected Part Graphically shows Pan position for each Part. Range: Rnd, L 63 - C 00 - R 63 Default: C 00 This determines the stereo position of the selected Part. The Pan position is graphically represented by bars in the display. The “Rnd” (Random) setting randomly assigns the Voice to a pan position. This is useful when you want to have different Voices sound from different random positions of the stereo image. A double bar in the middle represents the center position (C 00), while right pan positions are indicated by bars stretching up from the middle, and left pan positions are indicated by bars stretching down. Note Shift Note Shift setting NoteShft Selected Part Shows Note Shift setting for each Part. Range: -24 - +24 semitones Default: 0 This determines the key transposition of the selected Part, over a total range of four octaves in semitone steps. A Note Shift setting of “0” results in normal pitch. This parameter has no effect on the individual drum/percussion sounds of the Drum Voices. 47 Edit Mode Solo Solo setting Solo Selected Part Shows Solo setting for each Part. While a song is playing back on your computer or sequencer, you can selectively solo any of the 16 Parts of the MU15. Solo lets you isolate a single Part, to hear how that Part sounds by itself. Along with Mute (page 49), Solo is an effective tool that helps you as you edit the Parts, since it allows you to better hear how the changes you make affect specific Voices as well as the overall sound. Operation Z Simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the SOLO button. Solo X Select the Part to be soloed. Use the PART buttons. C To solo the selected Part, press the VALUE /YES button. To hear all Parts normally, press the VALUE NO button. / The display indicates the Solo status of the Part. For example, when Part 2 is being soloed (Solo is on), the following display is shown: Solo Part 2 is soloed. 48 Edit Mode Mute English Mute setting Mute Selected Part Shows Mute setting for each Part. While a song is playing back on your computer or sequencer, you can selectively mute any of the 16 Parts of the MU15. Mute lets you silence one Part to hear how all of the other Parts sound without it. Along with Solo (page 48), Mute is a convenient tool, since it allows you to hear how the presence or absence of specific Parts affects the overall sound. Operation Z Simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the MUTE button. Mute X Select the Part to be muted. Use the PART buttons. C To mute the selected Part, press the VALUE /YES button. To un-mute it, press the VALUE /NO button. The display indicates the Mute status of the Part. For example, when Part 2 is being muted (Mute is on), the following display is shown: Mute Part 2 is muted. 49 Edit Mode Filter Parameters — Cutoff Frequency and Resonance The MU15 features digital filters for each Part that allow you to change the timbre or tone of the Voices. The filters are affected (together with the level) by the EG (Envelope Generator) parameters, which allow you to change the timbre over time as well. (Page 52.) Cutoff Frequency Cutoff Frequency setting Cutoff Shows Cutoff Frequency setting for each Part. Selected Part Range: -64 - +63 Default: 0 This determines the cutoff frequency of the filter. The filter effectively takes out frequencies higher than the cutoff point and “passes” the lower frequencies. Lower cutoff values create a deeper, more rounded tone, while higher values create a brighter tone. Level These frequencies are “passed” or let through. These frequencies are “cut” or filtered out. Frequency Cutoff Frequency setting 50 Edit Mode Resonance English Resonance setting Reso Shows Resonance setting for each Part. Selected Part Range: -64 - +63 Default: 0 This determines the amount of filter resonance or emphasis of the Cutoff Frequency parameter above. Higher values make the filter effect more pronounced and stronger, creating a resonant peak around the cutoff frequency. Level Resonance Frequency Cutoff Frequency setting 51 Edit Mode EG (Envelope Generator) Parameters — Attack Time and Release Time The EG parameters allow you to shape the sound of a Part’s Voice — or, in other words, set how the level and timbre of the Voice changes over time. The relationship of the two EG parameters — Attack Time and Release Time — are shown in the illustrations below. These parameters affect both the volume of the Voice and its timbre (with the Filter parameters; page 50). 1) Short Attack and Release Times Level Attack Time Release Time Max. Min. Time Key is pressed Key is released 2) Long Attack and Release Times Level Attack Time Release Time Max. Min. Key is pressed Time Key is released Even though the key is held for the same length of time in both examples, the sound of the second example takes a much longer time to reach full volume and sustains longer after the key is released. 52 Edit Mode Attack Time English Attack Time setting AtckTime Selected Part Shows Attack Time setting for each Part. Range: -64 - +63 Default: 0 This determines the Attack Time of the EG, or how long it takes for the sound to reach full volume when a note is played. Higher positive values result in a longer, slower attack. For the Filter, this determines how long it takes for the sound to be affected by the Filter values. Release Time Release Time setting RelsTime Selected Part Shows Release Time setting for each Part. Range: -64 - +63 Default: 0 This determines the Release Time of the EG, or how long the sound sustains after a note is released. Higher positive values result in a longer, slower sustain. For the Filter, this determines how long the Filter effect continues after a note is released. NOTE • Short percussive Voices (such as Marimba) whose sound decays very quickly may not be affected by the Release Time parameter, depending on how long the key is held. For example, if the key is held until the sound completely dies out, there will be no sound to slowly sustain, no matter what the Release Time setting is. 53 Edit Mode Vibrato Parameters — Rate, Depth, and Delay Vibrato produces a quavering, vibrating sound in the Part’s Voice, by regularly modulating the pitch. You can control the speed and depth of the Vibrato, as well as the time it takes before the Vibrato effect is applied. Vibrato Rate Vibrato Rate setting VibRate Selected Part Shows Vibrato Rate setting for each Part. Range: -64 - +63 Default: 0 This determines the speed of the Vibrato effect. Negative values produce a very slow Vibrato, while higher values result in a faster Vibrato sound. Vibrato Depth Vibrato Depth setting VibDepth Selected Part Shows Vibrato Depth setting for each Part. Range: -64 - +63 Default: 0 This determines the depth of the Vibrato effect. Higher values result in a stronger, more pronounced Vibrato sound. 54 Edit Mode Vibrato Delay English Vibrato Delay setting VibDelay Selected Part Shows Vibrato Delay setting for each Part. Range: -64 - +63 Default: 0 This determines the delay in the start of the Vibrato effect. Delay is effective especially for producing a natural sound on stringed instrument Voices. For example, violin players often use delayed Vibrato, especially while playing long notes. The Delay parameter is useful in recreating this effect, producing a richer, more lifelike sound. Higher values result in a longer Delay time. 55 Edit Mode Effect Controls Reverb Chorus Variation Type ................ 57 Send Level ................ 57 Type ................ 58 Send Level ................ 59 Connection ................ 60 Type ................ 60 Send Level ................ 61 Dry Level ................ 62 The MU15 features a built-in multi-effect processor with three independent digital effects: Reverb, Chorus, and Variation. Reverb Parameters Reverb recreates the sounds of various performance environments by adding an ambient wash of delays or reflections. Several different types of Reverb effects are available to simulate the ambience of different sized rooms. For general information on using the Reverb effect, see page 32. 56 Edit Mode Reverb Type English RevType The current Type setting appears in the LCD as soon as the TYPE button is released. Hall1 Reverb Type setting Settings: NoEffect, Hall1 - 2, Room1 - 3, Stage1 - 2, Plate, W-Room (White Room), Tunnel, Basement Default: Hall1 This determines the Type of Reverb effect, or the performance environment that is simulated. When “NoEffect” is selected, the Reverb effect is turned off. Reverb Send Level Reverb Send Level setting RevSend Selected Part Shows Reverb Send Level setting for each Part. Range: 0 - 127 Default: 40 This determines the level of the selected Part’s Voice that is sent to the Reverb effect. Each Part can be set independently for different amounts of Reverb on each Voice. A value of “0” results in a completely “dry” Voice sound. NOTE • Keep in mind that Reverb Type (above) must be set to something other than “NoEffect” for this parameter to work as intended. 57 Edit Mode Chorus Parameters Chorus uses pitch modulation to create a variety of rich, spacious-sounding effects, including Chorus, Celeste, and Flanger. For general information on using the Chorus effect, see page 32. Chorus Type ChoType The current Type setting appears in the LCD as soon as the TYPE button is released. Chorus1 Chorus Type setting Settings: NoEffect, Chorus1 - 4, Celeste1 - 4, Flanger1 - 3 Default: Chorus1 This determines the Type of Chorus effect. When “NoEffect” is selected, the Chorus effect is turned off. Chorus and Celeste are used to subtly enhance the sound, and generally make it richer, fatter, and warmer. Flanger uses modulation to create an animated, swirling motion effect, and produces a characteristic metallic sound. 58 Edit Mode Chorus Send Level English Chorus Send Level setting ChoSend Selected Part Shows Chorus Send Level setting for each Part. Range: 0 - 127 Default: 0 This determines the level of the selected Part’s Voice that is sent to the Chorus effect. Each Part can be set independently for different amounts of Chorus on each Voice. A value of “0” results in a completely “dry” Voice sound (no Chorus effect). NOTE • Keep in mind that Chorus Type (page 58) must be set to something other than “NoEffect” for this parameter to work as intended. Variation Parameters The Variation effects provide a wealth of additional tools for processing the Voices of the MU15. It features most of the same effects found in the Reverb and Chorus effects. This is not mere redundancy; it allows you to use two types of Reverb or Chorus simultaneously on different Voices. For example, you may want to have a Chorus effect on Voice and apply Flanger to another. Variation also gives you many special effects not found in the other sections, such as Delay, Gate Reverb, Rotary Speaker, and Wah. Variation effects can be applied either to a single selected Part or to all Parts, depending on the Variation Connection setting (page 60): Insertion or System. For general information on using the Variation effect, see page 33. 59 Edit Mode Variation Connection VarCnct INS The current Variation Connection setting appears in the LCD as soon as the INS/SYS button is released. Variation Connection setting Settings: INS (Insertion), SYS (System) Default: INS This determines how the Variation effect is connected in the effect chain of the MU15. When set to “SYS” (System), Variation is applied to all Parts, according to the amount of Variation Send Level (page 61) set for each Part. When set to “INS” (Insertion), Variation is applied to only the selected Part, also set in the Variation Send Level parameter. Variation Type VarType The Type setting appears in the LCD as soon as the TYPE button is released. DelayLCR Variation Type setting Settings: NoEffect, Hall1 - 2, Room1 - 3, Stage1 - 2, Plate, DelayLCR, DelayLR, Echo, CrsDelay (Cross Delay), E-Ref1 - 2 (Early Reflections), GateRev (Gate Reverb), RvsGate (Reverse Gate), Karaoke1 - 3, Chorus1 - 4, Celeste1 - 4, Flanger1 - 3, Symphnic (Symphonic), 60 Edit Mode English RotarySp (Rotary Speaker), Tremolo, AutoPan, Phaser1 - 2, Dist (Distortion), OverDrv (Overdrive), AmpSim (Amp Simulator), 3BandEQ, 2BandEQ, AutoWah, PitchCng (Pitch Change), Thru Default: DelayLCR This determines the Type of the Variation effect. About “NoEffect” and “Thru” When Variation Connection is set to “INS” and “NoEffect” is selected, the sound for the Part is turned off (there is no “dry” sound). When “Thru” is selected, you can hear the dry, unprocessed sound. NOTE • The 3BandEQ and 2BandEQ Types have little effect on the sound unless the “hidden” parameters are changed via MIDI. (Page 91.) Variation Send Level Variation Send Level setting VarSend Selected Part Shows Variation Send Level setting for each Part. Settings: off, on (when Variation Connection is set to “INS”) 0 - 127 (when Variation Connection is set to “SYS”) Default: off (for “INS”) 0 (for “SYS”) When the Variation Connection parameter (page 60) is set to “INS,” this determines whether the Variation effect is applied to the selected Part or not. Also, since the Variation effect cannot be used simultaneously on several Parts (for “INS”), only the last Part for which this parameter has been set to “on” will have the Variation effect. A setting of “off” results in no Variation effect being applied. 61 Edit Mode When the Variation Connection parameter (page 60) is set to “SYS,” this determines the level of the selected Part’s Voice that is sent to the Variation effect. In this case, each Part can be set independently for different amounts of Variation on each Voice. A value of “0” results in a completely “dry” Voice sound (no Variation effect). NOTE • Keep in mind that Variation Type (page 60) must be set to something other than “NoEffect” or “Thru” for this parameter to work as intended. • If the Variation Type is set to “NoEffect” and Variation Connection is set to “INS,” there will be no sound for the Part. To remedy this, set the Type to “Thru” or to one of the other effect Types. (Page 60.) Dry Level Dry Level setting DryLevel Selected Part Shows Dry Level setting for each Part. Range: 0 - 127 Default: 127 This determines the level or volume of the selected Part’s “dry” sound — the sound of the Voice without the effects. Dry Level gives you additional fine control over the effect balance. Setting this to a low value turns down the level of the “dry” sound and emphasizes the effect sound. NOTE • When Variation Connection is set to “INS,” the Dry Level parameter is automatically set to “off” and cannot be changed. 62 Edit Mode Utility Controls ................ 63 Velocity ................ 64 Local Control ................ 64 Dump Out ................ 65 Initialize All ................ 68 English Master Tune Master Tune Tuning value MstrTune Range: +/- 999 (in 0.1 cent steps) Default: 0 This determines the overall fine tuning of the MU15’s Voices. It does not affect the pitch of the individual drum/percussion sounds of the Drum Voices. Master Tune is especially useful for adjusting the pitch of the MU15 when playing with other instruments. (The actual pitch of each Part depends also on the Note Shift parameter on page 47.) 63 Edit Mode Velocity Velocity setting Velocity Range: 1 - 127 Default: 88 This determines the note on velocity of the MU15’s built-in keyboard. All notes that you play from the panel keyboard will be at this fixed velocity, and sound at the same level. This velocity is also transmitted to connected devices via the MIDI OUT or TO HOST terminals. However, it does not affect the incoming velocity of notes played from a connected sequencer or external keyboard. NOTE • Settings of 20 or less may result in little or no sound. For normal applications, make sure this is set to around 88 (default). • Keep in mind that when playing the MU15’s keyboard, the actual sound level of a selected Part also depends on the Volume parameter in the Part controls (page 46). If the Volume setting is at or near the minimum, the Part may be very low in level, no matter what the Velocity setting made here. Local Control Local Control setting LoclCtrl 64 Edit Mode English Range: off, on Default: on This determines whether or not the internal tone generator responds to the notes you play on the MU15’s keyboard. Normally, this should be on. Setting this to “off” effectively disconnects the panel keyboard from the internal tone generator. Even when this is set to “off,” notes played on the keyboard are still transmitted via the TO HOST or MIDI OUT terminals. HINT • A common application of Local Control is when using the MU15 to input notes into a sequencer. If the sequencer is also set up to play back data using the Voices of the MU15, when you play the MU15, it will be sounding its own Voices twice — once from the keyboard, and after a very brief delay, again from the MIDI data coming from the sequencer. This not only decreases the available polyphony of the MU15 by half, it also creates an undesirable flanging sound. To remedy this, set Local Control to “off.” • Another useful application of the “off” setting of this parameter is when you’ve connected the MU15 to another tone generator and want to play only that tone generator and leave the MU15 Voices silent. Dump Out DumpOut This function allows you to save the current parameter settings of the MU15 to a MIDI sequencer, computer or a MIDI data recorder (such as the Yamaha MDF3 MIDI Data Filer). 65 Edit Mode • Saving and Restoring Data via MIDI MIDI Data Recorder MU15 GrandPno MIDI OUT MIDI IN MIDI IN MIDI OUT Bulk Dump data can be sent and received using the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT connections. • Saving and Restoring Data via TO HOST COMPUTER/ MIDI Data Recorder MU15 GrandPno TO HOST SERIAL PORT Bulk Dump data can be sent and received using the TO HOST connection. Operation Z Make sure that the MU15 is properly connected to the device and that the HOST SELECT switch is properly set. When using the MIDI terminals, connect the MIDI OUT of the MU15 to the MIDI IN of the data recorder. (See the “Saving and Restoring Data via MIDI” illustration above.) Also, set the HOST SELECT switch to MIDI. When using the TO HOST terminal, make sure that the HOST SELECT switch is set corresponding to the device to be used. (See the “Saving and Restoring Data via TO HOST” illustration above.) For more information on host computer connections, see page 37. X Set the connected device to receive MIDI System Exclusive data. Refer to the owner’s manual of the particular device or software for instructions on receiving System Exclusive data. 66 Edit Mode English C Simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the DUMP OUT button. DumpOut V At the “DumpOut” message, press the VALUE button. /YES Sure? B At the “Sure?” prompt, press the VALUE ton. /YES but- A “Transmit” message appears in the display during the operation. When the operation is completed, a “Complete” message briefly appears. To cancel the operation at the “Sure?” prompt, press the VALUE /NO button. To reload the data from the data recorder back to the MU15 Make sure that the devices are properly connected (see the illustrations on page 66), and execute the appropriate data transfer operation from the data recorder. (Refer to the owner’s manual of that device or software for instructions.) The MU15 automatically receives incoming bulk data. NOTE • This operation does not save settings of parameters which cannot be controlled via MIDI (such as Velocity and Local Control). 67 Edit Mode Initialize All InitAll This operation allows you to restore the original factory settings of the MU15. • CAUTION Using Initialize All will erase whatever settings you’ve made on the MU15. If you have important settings you wish to keep, store them to a MIDI data recorder with the Dump Out function. (See page 65.) Operation Z Simultaneously hold down the PLAY/EDIT button and press the INIT ALL button. InitAll X At the “InitAll” message, press the VALUE button. /YES Sure? C At the “Sure?” prompt, press the VALUE ton. /YES but- An “Execute” message appears in the display during the operation. Once started, the operation cannot be stopped. When the operation is completed, a “Complete” message briefly appears. 68 English Appendix Troubleshooting Even though the MU15 is exceptionally easy to use, it may occasionally not function as you expect it to. If that happens, check the possible problems and solutions below before assuming that the instrument is faulty. Problem Possible Cause and Solution No power. • If you are using an AC adaptor, check that the adaptor properly plugged into both the AC outlet and the MU15 (Page 18.) • If you are using batteries, check that a fresh set of batteries properly installed in the battery compartment. (Page 19.) No sound. • Check that the side panel volume control is set to an appropriate level. (Pages 16, 21.) • Check that other volume-related parameters are set to appropriate levels. (See Velocity, page 64, and Volume, page 46.) • Check the Mute and Solo settings. (Pages 48, 49.) If a Part is being muted, or an empty Part is being soloed, you may not get any sound. No sound when playing the keyboard on the MU15. • Check that Local Control is set to on. (Page 64.) Also check the points for “No Sound” above. 69 Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause and Solution No sound when playing the MU15 from a computer, sequencer or external keyboard. • • No sound of a specific Part. • • 70 Check all MIDI connections, making sure that the MIDI OUT of the external device is connected to the MIDI IN of the MU15, and that the MIDI IN of the external device is connected to the MIDI OUT of the MU15. (Page 39.) Or, if you are using the TO HOST terminal with a computer, make sure that the terminal is properly connected to the computer and that the HOST SELECT switch is properly set for your particular computer. (Page 37.) Check the settings of the connected MIDI device. If Expression and Master Volume are set to low values, the MU15 may put out little or no sound. Check the Mute setting. (Page 49.) If a Part is being muted, it will not sound. Check the Variation effect settings. If Variation Connection (page 60) is set to “INS” and Variation Type is set to “NoEffect,” the selected Part may not sound. Also, if Variation Type is set to “NoEffect” or “Thru” and Dry Level is set near or at the minimum value, the selected Part may not sound. Notes are cut off or omitted. • The maximum polyphony of the MU15 may be exceeded. The MU15 can play no more than 32 notes at once. When using a sequencer or computer, an unusual “flanging” sound occurs and/or not all notes seem to sound. • Check that Local Control is set to “off.” (Page 64.) Also, check the settings on your sequencer or computer (such as “MIDI Thru” or “MIDI Echo”). Even though Local Control is set to “off,” the MU15 continues to sound when playing the built-in keyboard. • This is normal, if you’ve routed the MU15 to a sequencer or computer and that device’s “MIDI Thru” or “MIDI Echo” option is turned on. Error Messages English Error Messages Errors may occur from time to time, and when they do the MU15 will display a message to indicate the type of problem so that you can rectify it and return to normal operation. “Battery” The battery voltage is too low for proper operation. Replace the old batteries with a set of new ones. (Page 19.) “CheckSum” (Checksum Error) The checksum of the received System Exclusive message is incorrect. Check the checksum of the message and try transmitting again. (The checksum which is calculated for the received data will be displayed.) “IlglData” (Illegal Data) A data error resulted during reception of MIDI messages. Try transmitting the data again, or turn the MU15 off and back on again. Or the MU15 is connected to a computer via the TO HOST terminal and the power of the computer is turned off. Turn on your computer again. If this still doesn’t resolve the problem, turn all equipment off and then back on again. “BuffFull” (MIDI Buffer Full) Too much MIDI data is being received by the MU15 at one time. Reduce the amount of data being sent to the MU15. “MIDIAdrs” (System Exclusive Address Error) The data of the received System Exclusive message is incorrect. Check the address of the message and try transmitting again. “MIDIData” (System Exclusive Data Error) An error has been detected in the MIDI System Exclusive data received by the MU15. Check the data of the message (as to whether it requires an MSB or LSB header) and try transmitting again. “BulkSize” (System Exclusive Size Error) The data of the received System Exclusive message is incorrect. Check the size of the message and try transmitting again. 71 Specifications Specifications Tone Generation Method Advanced Wave Memory 2 (AWM2) Polyphony 32-note (Dynamic Voice Allocation) Multi-timbral Capacity 16-Part Demo Song 1 (not editable, stored in ROM) Display Custom LCD (54.5 mm x 29.4 mm) Controls ; VALUE /NO, /YES; XG BANK, PLAY/EDIT; OCT DOWN, PART , UP; keypad (for playing Voices or accessing Edit functions); ON/STANDBY switch; HOST SELECT switch; VOLUME control Jacks and Terminals MIDI OUT and MIDI IN terminals, TO HOST terminal (8-pin mini DIN), DC IN jack, LINE OUT/PHONES jack Host Computer Interface and Data Baud Rate MIDI — 31,250 bps (bits per second) Mac — 31,250 bps PC-1 — 31,250 bps PC-2 — 38,400 bps Power Supply YAMAHA PA-3B AC Power Adaptor (sold separately).

MIDI Data Format modulation, brightness, portamento time, effect depth, and many others. Depending on the controllers available on your particular MIDI instrument and their Control Change number assignments, you can use key velocity, aftertouch (see below) foot controllers, pedals, sliders, performance wheels, and joysticks to control these aspects of the sound. ■ What is MIDI? MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, a sophisticated system that allows various electronic musical instruments and other devices to “communicate” with each other. This is done by sending and receiving MIDI messages over a MIDI cable. Since MIDI has such as a broad scope and so many different uses, it would be impossible to explain everything here. However, if you’re a MIDI “novice,” the brief explanations below will give you a good start in understanding this powerful and flexible technology. ● Pitch Bend These messages let you continuously raise or lower the pitch of the Voices as you play. They are usually controlled with a pitch bend wheel on a MIDI keyboard. ● Aftertouch ■ MIDI Messages This is a pressure sensing function that lets you control an assigned aspect of the sound by the strength with which you press the keys. The MU15 responds to both Channel (global) and Polyphonic (individual keys) Aftertouch. The MU15 is controlled by various types of MIDI messages. Using them in song data on a sequencer or from a MIDI keyboard, you can: • • • • • Determine the Sound Module mode Select MIDI channels, Voices and effects Play the Voices Edit the Parts and change parameter values Edit the effects ● System Exclusive These messages let you delve even deeper into the inner workings of the MU15, letting you control the master volume and tuning, Sound Module mode (XG or TG300B), Part parameters, effect types and parameters, and various other settings. One of the best and easiest ways to use System Exclusive messages is with Yamaha’s XGworks software. The included XG Editor window lets you view and edit all of the MU15 parameters from your computer. Special “Detail” buttons on the main window give you comprehensive control over the Parts, Drum Setups, and effects. The changes you make are instantaneous, and you can save all your custom settings for future recall as System Exclusive data, either directly to the current song or as a special XG Parameter file. ● Note On/Off (Key On/Off) These tell the MU15 which notes to play and how long they are to be played. Velocity values let you change the dynamics or level of the sound, depending on how strongly you play the keys. ● Program Change These messages determine which Voice is selected for each Part, and they can be inserted at any desired location in the song. Used with Bank Select messages, they let you access any of the 676 Voices of the MU15. ● Control Change These messages provide powerful, real-time control over various aspects of the sound — including volume, pan position, sustain, Decimal - Hexadecimal Conversion Chart Many MIDI messages listed in the MIDI Data Format section, are expressed in hexadecimal numbers. The chart at right lists the corresponding decimal number for each hexadecimal number. (Hexadecimal numbers may include the letter “H” as a suffix.) NOTE The XG Editor in XGworks has additional parameters (for other XG instruments) that are not available on the MU15.

Channel messages This device transmits only NOTE ON and NOTE OFF. 1.1 Note on/note off These messages convey keyboard performance data. Note-on is transmitted when a note is pressed, and note-off is transmitted when a note is released. These messages contain a note number which indicates the key that was played, and a “velocity” which indicates how strongly it was played. When a note-on of velocity “0” is received, it has the same effect as a note-off.” Range of note numbers received = C-2...G8 Velocity range = 1...127 (Velocity is received only for note-on) When the Multi Part parameter “Rcv NOTE MESSAGE” = OFF, that part will not receive these messages. For a drum part*, key-off is not received if the DrumSetup parameter Rcv NOTE OFF = OFF. For a drum part, key-on is not received if the DrumSetup parameter Rcv NOTE ON = OFF. * Drum Part indicates that the Multi Part parameter PART MODE is “set to DRUM or DRUMS1,2.” 1.2 Control changes These messages control volume or pan etc. Their functions are differentiated by the control number (Ctrl#). If the Multi Par t parameter Rcv CONTROL CHANGE = OFF, that part will not receive control changes. 1.2.1 Bank Select This message selects the voice bank. The voice bank is selected by the combination of two control change messages: MSB and LSB. Control# 0 Parameter Bank Select MSB 32 Bank Select LSB Data Range 0, 64, 126, 127 (Normal voice,SFX voice, SFX kit, Drum kit) 0...127 In the XG mode, MSB numbers select Voice type (Normal Voice or Drum Voice), and LSB numbers select Voice banks. In the TG300B mode, LSB is fixed, and MSB numbers select Voice banks. The Bank Select data will be processed only after a Program Change is received, and then voice bank will change at that time. If you wish to change the voice bank as well as the voice, you must transmit Bank Select and Program Change messages as a set, in the order of Bank Select MSB, LSB, and Program Change. 1.2.2 Modulation This message is used primarily to control the depth of vibrato, but the depth of the following 7 types of effect can be controlled. The effect of this message can be changed by the following parameters. •Multi Part Parameter 1. MW PITCH CONTROL 2. MW FILTER CONTROL 3. MW AMPLITUDE CONTROL 4. MW LFO PMOD DEPTH 5. MW LFO FMOD DEPTH 6. MW LFO AMOD DEPTH 94 •Effect1 Parameter 7. MW VARIATION CONTROL DEPTH (Valid when Variation Effect is assigned to a part as Insertion) By default, an LFO Pitch Modulation (PMOD) effect will apply. Control# 1 Parameter Modulation Data Range 0...127 If the Multi Part parameter Rcv MODULATION = OFF, that part will not receive Modulation. If the receive channel is a drum part, effects 5 and 6 will not apply. 1.2.3 Portamento Time This message controls the degree of Portamento (refer to 1.2.9). Control# 5 Parameter Portamento Time Data Range 0...127 When Portamento (control number 065) is ON, this regulates the speed of the pitch change. A value of 0 is the shortest portamento time, and 127 is the longest portamento time. If the receive channel is a drum part, Portamento Time is not received. 1.2.4 Data Entry This message sets the value of the parameter which was specified by RPN MSB/LSB (see 1.2.22) and NRPN MSB/LSB (see 1.2.21). Control# 6 38 Parameter Data Entry MSB Data Entry LSB Data Range 0...127 0...127 1.2.5 Main Volume This message controls the volume of each par t. This is used to adjust the volume balance between parts. Control# 7 Parameter Main Volume Data Range 0...127 When the Multi Part parameter Rcv VOLUME = OFF, that part will not receive Main Volume. With a value of 0 there will be no sound, and a value of 127 will be the maximum volume. 1.2.6 Panpot This message controls the panning (stereo location) of each part. Control# 10 Parameter Pan Data Range 0...64...127 When the Multi Part parameter Rcv PAN = OFF, that part will not receive Panpot. 0 is left, 64 is center, and 127 is right. 1.2.7 Expression This message controls expression (dynamics within a musical line) for each part. It is used to create volume changes during a song. Control# 11 Parameter Expression Data Range 0...127 If the Multi Part parameter Rcv EXPRESSION = OFF, that part will not receive Expression. MIDI Data Format With a value of 0 there will be no sound, and with a value of 127 the volume will be maximum. •Rcv SOFT PEDAL= OFF •PART MODE=DRUM,DRUMS1,2 1.2.8 Hold1 1.2.12 Harmonic Content This message controls sustain pedal on/off. The notes that are sounding while the pedal is pressed will be sustained. This message adjusts the resonance of the filter that is specified for the sound. The value of 0~127 is taken as -64~+63, and added as an offset value to the original sound data to modify the resonance. Control# 64 Parameter Hold1 Data Range 0...63,64...127 (OFF , ON) Control# 71 Parameter Harmonic Content Data Range 0...64...127 (-64...0...+63) For data of 0...63 the sustain pedal will be OFF (released), and for data of 64...127 it will be on (pressed). When this is ON, currently-sounding notes will continue to sound even if note-off messages are received. If the Multi Par t parameter Rcv HOLD1 = OFF, that part will not receive Hold1. Since this is a relative change parameter, it specifies a boost or cut relative to 64. Higher values will produce a more distinctive sound. For some sounds, the effective range may be less than the possible range of settings. 1.2.9 Portamento 1.2.13 Release Time This message controls portamento pedal on/off. When the pedal is pressed, a portamento effect will be applied. This message adjusts the EG release time that was specified by the sound data. The value of 0~127 is taken as -64~+63, and added to the original sound data as an offset value to modify the release time. Control# 65 Parameter Por tamento Data Range 0...63,64...127 (OFF , ON) For data of 0...63 the portamento pedal will be OFF (released), and for 64...127 it will be ON (pressed). When this is ON, the pitch will change smoothly between notes. The time over which the pitch changes is adjusted by Portamento Time (see 1.2.3). Also, when the Multi Part parameter MONO/POLY MODE = MONO, the tone will also change smoothly (legato) if Portamento = ON. If any of the following Multi Par t parameter settings apply, that part will not receive Portamento. •Rcv PORTAMENTO = OFF •PART MODE=DRUM, DRUMS1,2 1.2.10 Sostenuto This message controls sostenuto pedal on/off. Notes which were already pressed when the pedal was pressed will be sustained. Control# 66 Parameter Sostenuto Data Range 0...63,64...127 (OFF , ON) For data of 0...63, the sostenuto pedal will be OFF (released), and for 64...127 it will be ON (pressed). If sostenuto is turned on while a note is sounding, that note will be sustained until sostenuto is turned OFF. If the Multi Par t parameter Rcv SOSTENUTO = OFF, that part will not receive Sostenuto. 1.2.11 Soft Pedal This message controls soft pedal on/off. The sound will become more mellow while the pedal is pressed.
