Introduction
With S03 Voice Editor (hereafter referred to as Voice Editor), you can edit your S03 synthesizer’s
voices and effects via your computer. Its graphical user interface provides for easy editing by
presenting each synthesizer parameter on screen as a slider, switch, and so on, which can be
manipulated using your computer’s mouse or keyboard. Finally, all the changes you have made to
your voices can be saved to your computer.

About OMS
Voice Editor uses the OMS (Open Music System) to transfer MIDI data to an external MIDI device.
OMS is a system extension that goes in the Mac OS System folder, designed to manage the MIDI
data stream (input & output) in a computer, to enable MIDI data transfer between MIDI software
and hardware attached to the computer. OMS is a de facto standard of the MIDI environment
under the Mac OS, and various music software manufacturers have released OMS-compatible
sequencer and other software.
OMS has the following merits:
As OMS-compatible MIDI applications communicate with various MIDI devices via OMS, it is
no longer necessary for you to set up multiple MIDI drivers for those applications. Thus, you
can avoid conflicts between different drivers with the same purpose (MIDI control).
Once a Studio Setup is read in OMS, any OMS-compatible application will be aware of it, even
if you need to reconfigure the routing of the MIDI data stream or change the current Studio
Setup. OMS-compatible applications will commonly recognize the new configuration.
You can have different Studio Setups to choose one from, to switch to a different MIDI routing
(patches between MIDI devices and software) fast and easily.
Every time the OMS Setup application is opened, any MIDI device connected to the computer
is automatically detected, and its icon appears with a current MIDI status (channel number,
port number, patches, etc.). Once devices are configured with OMS Setup, however, you need
not care too much about the status.
OMS can drive various MIDI interfaces, including the standard type (16 channels) and the
multi-port type (16 channels per port). If you use a multi-port type, you can control over 16
channels simultaneously via OMS.
n For more information about OMS features, see the READ ME file included with OMS.
Setting up OMS
Setup files for the S03 have already been created for use with Voice Editor; please use the
appropriate file for your device.
1. First, interconnect the “TO HOST” terminal of the S03 and the Macintosh serial port, then set
the “Host Select” switch of the S03 to “Mac.
2. Double-click the “OMS Setup” icon in the “OMS Application” folder.
3. Choose “Open” from the “File” menu and select “S03-Modem” from within the “OMS setup for
YAMAHA” folder.
n If you are using a computer with no modem port (such as the Performa series), look in the “S03-Printer”
folder instead.
4. Choose “Make Current” from the “File” menu. The setup for your S03 is now saved as the
current studio setup.
5. Choose “Quit” from the “File” menu to close OMS Setup.
n Voice Editor is not compatible with versions of OMS earlier than 2.0.

OMS Port Setup
Having set up OMS, you now need to start up Voice Editor and set the OMS ports.
1. First, start up Voice Editor by double-clicking its icon.
n If AppleTalk is enabled, you will get an alert message. Click “OFF. It will take some time for AppleTalk to
be disabled.
2. Choose “OMS Port Setup” from Voice Editor’s “MIDI” menu, then select the port settings. In the
following example, the tone generator is a S03 and its settings are applied to OMS.
Key Thru: Check this if you are monitoring a sound generator module using an external
keyboard.
MIDI In: Select “S03.
MIDI Out: Select “S03.
3. Click [OK] to close OMS Port Setup.

An Example of Voice Editor in Use
There is no single way in which to use the many components in Voice Editor. Although your editing
needs may differ, in any case, the following gives a step-by-step example of how to use Voice
Editor. The Library Window is the first window to open, so that’s where the explanation begins.
n In the Library Window, you can open existing Library files containing the Voices you wish to edit, and specific
voices can be imported to the Library Window.
1. Click the “Editor Setup” button in the toolbar of the Library Window to open the “Editor Setup”
dialog. Then select the appropriate MIDI Out Port and Device No. settings for your S03
synthesizer (See the section “Editor Setup” Dialog).
n If you are using a Macintosh, you will also need to make settings in OMS (Page 23).
2. Open the Library file. In the Voice List of the Library Window, double-click the voice you wish to
edit. The Edit Window will open for the voice.
3. Various units are arranged in the Edit Window. First, let’s set the parameters for Elements 1 to
4 on the Element Unit which make up the voice. Open the dialogs for Elements 1 to 4, select
the waveforms, and adjust the tonal characteristics of the voice using the filter and other
settings. You can use the graph editors in each dialog to visually edit the parameters.
n You can edit the Element parameters in much finer detail within the “EL Detail” dialogs. The Element
dialogs are linked to the “EL Detail” dialogs, so changes in one dialog are immediately reflected in the
other. You can simultaneously view the graphs and the “EL Detail” dialogs side-by-side while editing.
n By clicking or dragging on the buttons of the keyboard at the bottom of the Edit Window, you can monitor
the voice you are editing.
n By enabling the “Compare” button in the toolbar in the Edit Window, you can make A/B comparisons
between the original voice and the edited voice.
4. Select the Variation Effect Type in the VARIATION EFFECT Unit and set the remaining
parameters.
5. Set the parameters in the SYSTEM EFFECT Unit.
6. Set the Velocity and Portamento parameters if necessary.
7. Click the “Store” button in the toolbar of the Edit Window to open the “Store” dialog. This will
store the edits for the current voice in the Library file.
n The edits for the voice are only stored in the Library file temporarily. Beware that if you proceed further
without saving the Library file itself, you will lose all your edits.
8. Switch back to the Library Window and click the “Save” button in the toolbar to save (overwrite)
the Library file. The edits for your voice will be saved with the voice itself in the designated
voice list location.
n The Library file you have saved can be opened in the Library Window at any time. Voices in the Library
Window can be transmitted to your S03 synthesizer.
n You can create a variety of different Library files, each tailored for live performances, recording, etc.
Thus, you can conveniently modify voices to suit different situations and needs.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems such as no sound output or abnormal behavior, verify the connections
before checking the following. If you are using Voice Editor for Windows, refer to the XGworks(lite)
owner’s manual too.
<Macintosh>
The printer port is not recognized.
The printer port will not be recognized if
AppleTalk is ON. Note that with some Macintosh
models, AppleTalk is automatically enabled when
starting up.
Verify that the “Printer” checkbox has been
checked in the OMS MIDI Setup window.
The modem port is not recognized.
On some Macintosh models such as the
Performa series, the modem port cannot be used
and only the printer port is available.
Verify that the “Modem” checkbox has been
checked in the OMS MIDI Setup window.
No MIDI In/Out data
Is the MIDI device’s HOST SELECT switch set
correctly?
Make the correct setting according to the
instructions in the S03 Owner’s Manual.
In the OMS Port Setup, is MIDI In/Out set to
“unknown”? If you change the OMS ports or
setup, the OMS output ports have to be set
accordingly in Voice Editor’s OMS Port Setup
window. Choose the appropriate receiving
device.
Is OMS using the same port as that connected to
the cable? Open the OMS MIDI Setup window
and verify that the checkbox for the relevant port
has been checked.
If the port and setup assignments are frequently
altered, OMS may be unable to easily recognize
the serial port. Reboot the Macintosh, set up
OMS correctly, then start up Voice Editor.
Bulk data are not received.
Open the OMS Port Setup window and check
that the MIDI In has been properly assigned
(Page 24).
Open the Editor Setup Dialog and check that the
Device No. has been properly assigned (Page 10).
Voice Editor does not start up when Library File
(extension .S3V) is double-clicked.
Change the Type/Creator settings for Library
Files as follows, then try double-clicking the file
again.
Type: S3V_
Creator: YS03
<Windows>
Voice Editor is not available in the Plug-in menu.
Is the Voice Editor installed in the same folder as
XGworks(lite)? If not, reinstall Voice Editor.
