PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep these precautions in a safe place for future reference.
WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock,
short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or
modify them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable
parts. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immedi-
ately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet
conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill
into any openings.
If the AC adaptor cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a
sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual
smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the
power switch, disconnect the adaptor plug from the outlet, and have the
instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Use the specified adaptor (PA-3B or an equivalent recommended by
Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instru-
ment or overheating.
Before cleaning the instrument, always remove the electric plug from the
outlet. Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may
have accumulated on it.
CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the
instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Do not place the AC adaptor cord near heat sources such as heaters or
radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord,
place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk
on, trip over, or roll anything over it.
When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always
hold the plug itself and not the cord.
Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-con-
nector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause over-
heating in the outlet.
Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during
electrical storms.
Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with the +/-
polarity markings. Failure to do so might result in overheating, fire, or bat-
tery fluid leakage.
Always replace all batteries at the same time. Do not use new batteries
together with old ones. Also, do not mix battery types, such as alkaline bat-
teries with manganese batteries, or batteries from different makers, or dif-
ferent types of batteries from the same maker, since this can cause
overheating, fire, or battery fluid leakage.
Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not intended to be charged.
When the batteries run out, or if the instrument is not to be used for a long
time, remove the batteries from the instrument to prevent possible leakage
of the battery fluid.
Keep batteries away from children.
If the batteries do leak, avoid contact with the leaked fluid. If the battery
fluid should come in contact with your eyes, mouth, or skin, wash immedi-
ately with water and consult a doctor. Battery fluid is corrosive and may
possibly cause loss of sight or chemical burns.
Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off
the power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all
components, set all volume levels to minimum. Also, be sure to set the
volumes of all components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the
volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening
level.
Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme
cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the
day) to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the inter-
nal components.
Do not use the instrument near other electrical products such as televi-
sions, radios, or speakers, since this might cause interference which can
affect proper operation of the other products.
Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might acci-
dentally fall over.
Before moving the instrument, remove all connected adaptor and other
cables.
When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thin-
ners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
Also, do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since
this might discolor the panel or keyboard.
Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and
do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching the stand
or rack, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage
to the internal components or result in the instrument falling over.
Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high or uncom-
fortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you
experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.
SAVING USER DATA
Always save data to an external device such as the Yamaha MIDI data filer
MDF3 frequently, in order to help prevent the loss of important data due to
a malfunction or user operating error.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.
Make sure to discard used batteries according to local regulations.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper
use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.

Setting Up
This section contains information about setting up your PSR-262 for playing. Make sure to
read this section carefully before using the instrument.
Power Requirements
Although the PSR-262 will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries,
Yamaha recommends use of an AC adaptor whenever possible. An AC adaptor is
more environmentally friendly than batteries and does not deplete resources.
Using an AC Power Adaptor • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
To connect your PSR-262 to a wall socket, you will need the optionally available
Yamaha PA-3B Power Adaptor. Use of other AC adaptors could result in damage
to the instrument, so be sure to ask for the right kind. Connect one end of the
adaptor to the DC IN 10-12V jack on the rear panel of your PSR-262, and the
other end to a suitable electrical outlet.
Using Batteries • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
Inserting Batteries
Turn the instrument upside-down and remove the battery compartment lid. Insert
six 1.5-volt size “D” (SUM-1, R-20 or equivalent) batteries as shown in the illus-
tration, making sure that the positive and negative terminals are properly aligned,
and replace the lid.
When the Batteries Run Down
When the batteries run low and the battery voltage drops below a certain level, the
PSR-262 may not sound or function properly. As soon as this happens, replace
them with a complete set of six new batteries.
Turning On the Power
With the AC power adaptor connected or with batteries installed, simply press the
STANDBY switch until it locks in the ON position. When the instrument is not in
use, be sure to turn the power off. (Press the switch again so that it pops up.)
Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-3B AC
Power Adaptor (or other adap-
tor specifically recommended
by Yamaha) to power your
instrument from the AC mains.
The use of other adaptors may
result in irreparable damage to
both the adaptor and the PSR-
262.
Unplug the AC Power Adaptor
when not using the PSR-262,
or during electrical storms.
BATTERIES 1.5V
x
6
Never mix old and new batter-
ies or different types of batter-
ies (e.g., alkaline and
manganese).
To prevent possible damage
from battery leakage, remove
the batteries from the instru-
ment if it is not to be used for a
long time.
Even when the switch is in the
“STANDBY” position, electric-
ity is still flowing to the instru-
ment at the minimum level.
When you are not using the
PSR-262 for a long time, make
sure you unplug the AC power
adaptor from the wall AC out-
let, and/or remove the batteries
from the instrument.

Accessory Jacks
Using Headphones• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
For private practicing and playing without disturbing others, connect a set of ste-
reo headphones to the rear panel PHONES/OUTPUT jack. Sound from the built-
in speaker system is automatically cut off when you insert a headphone plug into
this jack.
Connecting a Keyboard Amplifier or Stereo System • • • • • • •
Though the PSR-262 is equipped with a built-in speaker system, you can also play
it through an external amplifier/speaker system. First, make sure the PSR-262 and
any external devices are turned off, then connect one end of a stereo audio cable to
the LINE IN or AUX IN jack(s) of the other device and the other end to the rear
panel PHONES/OUTPUT jack on the PSR-262.
Using a Sustain Footswitch • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
This feature lets you use an optional footswitch (Yamaha FC4 or FC5) to sustain
the sound of the keyboard voice. This is used in the same way as a damper pedal
on an acoustic piano — press and hold down the footswitch as you play the key-
board to sustain the sound.
Using the MIDI Terminals • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
The PSR-262 also features MIDI terminals, allowing you to interface the PSR-
262 with other MIDI instruments and devices. (For more information, see page
52.)
To prevent damage to the
speakers, set the volume of the
external devices at the mini-
mum setting before connect-
ing them. Failure to observe
these cautions may result in
electric shock or equipment
damage. Also, be sure to set
the volumes of all devices at
their minimum levels and grad
-
ually raise the volume controls
while playing the instrument to
set the desired listening level.
Make sure that the footswitch
plug is properly connected to the
SUSTAIN jack before turning on
the power.
Do not press the footswitch while
turning the power on. Doing this
changes the recognized polarity
of the footswitch, resulting in
reversed footswitch operation.

Grade
The PSR-262 has a built-in evaluation function that moni-
tors your practicing and — like a real teacher — tells you
how well you did each exercise. Four grades are assigned,
depending on your performance: “OK,” “Good,” “Very
Good,” and “Excellent.
Want to find out more? See page 39.
Talking
This feature “talks” to you through the speakers,
“announcing” the Grade comments as well as the titles of
the Lesson steps.
Want to find out more? See page 40.
Changing the Tempo

The PSR-262 also has a convenient Tap Tempo function that allows
you to “tap” a new tempo in real time. (See page 44.)
This step lets you work on the timing of the notes. In Les-
son 1, the particular note you play on the keyboard is
unimportant. The PSR-262 checks your timing and how
rhythmically “tight” your playing is.
Want to find out more? See page 36.
In Lesson 2, you practice playing the notes correctly as
they appear in the display notation. The accompaniment
pauses and waits for you to play the notes correctly before
it continues.

In Lesson 3, one of the parts is muted, and you practice
the missing part in time with the rhythm.

Selecting and Playing Voices
The PSR-262 features 100 authentic voices that have been created with Yamahas sophisticated
AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) tone generation system. Many of these voices also have spe-
cial preset characteristics or embellishments. The voices are divided into various categories
depending on their characteristics or the effects used.
Selecting and Playing a Voice
1 Press the [VOICE] button.
2 Select the desired voice number.
Use the numeric keypad. The basic categories of voices and their numbers
are shown on the panel.
There are two ways to select voices: 1) directly entering the voice number
with the numeric keypad, or 2) using the [+]/[-] buttons to step up and down
through the voices.

numbers beginning with zeroes (such as #042 or #006), the initial zeroes
may be omitted.
Using the [+]/[-] buttons
Press the [+] button to select the next voice number, and press the [-] button
to select the previous voice. Holding down either key continuously scrolls
up or down through the numbers.

Each voice is automatically
called up with the most suitable
octave range setting. Thus, play-
ing middle C with one voice may
sound higher or lower than
another voice at the same key.
Four of the Organ voices are
effect “pairs. Switching between
each of the paired voices (with
the [+]/[-] buttons) turns the effect
of the voice on or off. For exam-
ple, for the Vibrato pair (#010 and
#011), selecting #010 turns the
vibrato effect off, while selecting
#011 turns vibrato on. The same
applies to the Harmony, Attack
and Wave voices (#012 - #017).
The PSR-262 is polyphonic up to
a maximum of 16 notes.
(Depending on the voice selected
— such as split voices and dual
voices — fewer notes may be
available.) This includes not only
the notes played from the key-
board, but also the notes in a
style pattern, the notes played by
a Pad (page 51), and so on.
Thus, if you play too many notes
at one time, some may not sound
and/or others may be cancelled.
Selecting and Playing Voices
25
Harmony voices (#059 - #068) automatically add a one-, two- or three-note har-
mony to the original voice. Split voices (#069 - #073) feature two separate
voices, each playable from opposite sections of the keyboard — the lower voice
playable up to B2 and the upper voice from C3 (middle C). Sustain voices (#074
- #078) have a special sustained release for playing slower or legato passages.
Echo voices (#079 - #088) provide an echo effect that adds delayed repeats to the
original voice. Dual voices (#089 - #097) blend two voices together for a rich,
layered sound.
There’s even a dynamic set of DJ voices (#098 - #099) that provides a wealth of
exciting sounds for playing many of today’s popular music styles. The PSR-262
also features special Drum Kit voices — #088 (with Echo) and #100 — that let
you play a variety of drum and percussion sounds from the keyboard. (Refer to
the Drum Kit Voice Chart below.) Icons representing each sound are printed
above the keyboard, conveniently indicating which sounds are played from which
keys.
About the Harmony voices
Since Harmony voices are
designed to automatically play
two or more notes with the notes
you play on the keyboard, only
one note can be played on the
keyboard at a time. If several
notes are played together, only
the last note or highest note
played will be used for the har-
mony effect.

Transpose and Tuning
You can also adjust the tuning and change the transposition (key) of the PSR-262
with the Transpose and Tuning functions.
Transpose
Transpose determines the key of both the main voice and the bass/chord accompa-
niment of the selected style. It also determines the pitch of the songs and the

with the powerful Lesson feature (page 34), a convenient tool that makes learning
songs fun and easy.
Selecting and Playing a Song
1 Press the [SONG] button.
2 Select the desired song number.
Use the numeric keypad. The basic categories of songs and their numbers
are shown at the left of the panel.
Song numbers can be selected in the same way as with the voices (see page

Song Lesson
The Lesson feature provides an exceptionally fun and easy-to-use way to learn how to read
music and play the keyboard. All of the 100 songs of the PSR-262 can be used with these edu-
cational features. Lesson lets you practice the left- and right-hand parts of each song inde-
pendently, step by step, until youve mastered them and are ready to practice with both hands
together. These practices are divided into four Lesson steps, as described below. Lessons 1 -
3 apply to each hand; press the appropriate button, L (left) or R (right) to select the desired part
for practice.
Lesson 1 Timing
This lesson step lets you practice just the timing of the notes — any note
can be used, as long as you play in rhythm.
Lesson 2 Waiting
In this lesson step, the PSR-262 waits for you to play the correct notes
before continuing playback of the song.
Lesson 3 Minus One
This lesson step plays back the song with one part muted, letting you play
and master the missing part yourself — in rhythm and at the proper tempo.
Lesson 4 Both Hands
Lesson 4 is a “Minus One” practice essentially the same as Lesson 3,
except that both the left- and right-hand parts are muted — letting you play
and master both hands at the same time.
Using the Lesson Feature
1 Select one of the Lesson songs.
Press the [SONG] button, then use the numeric keypad or [+]/[-] buttons to
select the desired song (from 001 - 100).
Many of the songs are divided into different categories or music genres,
including Piano/Classical, World and Christmas, plus a special set of DJ
Game songs.

Lesson 1 — Timing
This lesson step lets you practice just the timing of the notes — any note can be
used, as long as you play in rhythm. Pick a note to play. For the left hand, use a
note in the auto accompaniment section or play the appropriate left-hand note; for
the right, play a note above F#2. Simply concentrate on playing each note in time
with the rhythmic accompaniment.
1 Select one of the songs.
2 Select Lesson 1.
Press the [L] or [R] button (repeatedly, if necessary) until Lesson 1 is indi-
cated.
3 Play the appropriate melody or chord with the song.
After the lead-in, the song starts automatically, and the appropriate notes
appear in the display. In Lesson 1, simply play one note repeatedly in time
with the music.
Regarding chords and the use of the left hand, the PSR-262 actually has two
different types of songs: 1) songs with normal left-hand chords, and 2) songs
in which the left hand plays arpeggios or melodic figures in combination
with the right.
In the case of the first type, play the chords with your left hand in the auto
accompaniment section of the keyboard.
The melody note does not sound
unless your playing is in time with
the rhythm.

Lesson 3 — Minus One
This lesson step lets you practice one part of the song in rhythm at the proper
tempo. The PSR-262 plays back the song accompaniment with one part muted
(either the left part or the right)— letting you play and master the missing part
yourself. The notes you are to play are shown continuously in the display as the
song plays back.

Selecting and Playing Styles
The PSR-262 provides dynamic rhythm/accompaniment patterns — as well as voice settings
appropriate for each pattern — for various popular music styles.
A total of 100 different styles are available, in several different categories. Each style is made up of separate
“sections” — Intro, Main A and B (with 2 Fill-ins), and Ending — letting you call up different accompaniment
patterns as you perform.
The auto accompaniment features that are built into the rhythms add the excitement of instrumental backing to
your performance, letting you control the accompaniment by the chords you play. Auto accompaniment effec-
tively splits the keyboard into two sections: The upper is used for playing a melody line, and the lower (labeled
ACMP” in green above the keyboard, at F
#
2) is for the auto accompaniment function.
The PSR-262 also features the convenient Dictionary function. Dictionary provides you with a built-in “chord
encyclopedia” that teaches you how to play any chord you specify by showing you the appropriate notes in the
display.

Style Sections (Main A, Main B) and Fill-ins
While the style is playing you can create dynamic variation in the rhythm and
accompaniment by pressing the [MAIN/AUTO FILL] button. This switches
between the Main A and Main B sections, automatically playing a fill-in pattern to
smoothly lead into the next section. For example, if the Main A section is cur-
rently playing, pressing this button automatically plays a fill-in pattern, followed
by the Main B section.
You can also select either the Main A or B section to start by pressing the [MAIN/
AUTO FILL] button before starting the style.
To have the Ending section grad-
ually slow down (ritardando) as it
is playing, press the [INTRO/
ENDING] button twice quickly.
Each style has been given a
default or standard tempo. When
style playback is stopped and a
different style is selected, the
tempo returns to the default set-
ting of the new style. When
switching styles during playback,
the last tempo setting is main-
tained. (This allows you to keep
the same tempo, even when

Using Auto Accompaniment — Multi Fingering
The auto accompaniment function automatically generates bass and chord accom-
paniment for you to play along with, by using Multi Fingering operation. You can
change the chords of the accompaniment by playing keys in the ACMP section of
the keyboard using either the “Single Finger” or “Fingered” method. With Single
Finger you can simply play a one-, two- or three-finger chord indication (see Sin-
gle Finger Chords below). The Fingered technique is that of conventionally play-
ing all the notes of the chord. Whichever method you use, the PSR-262
“understands” what chord you indicate and then automatically generates the
accompaniment.
Single Finger Chords
Chords that can be produced in Single Finger operation are major, minor, seventh
and minor seventh. The illustration below shows how to produce the four chord
types. (The key of C is used here as an example; other keys follow the same rules.
For example, B
b
7 is played as B
b
and A.)
Fingered Chords
Using the key of C as an example, the chart below shows the types of chords that
can be recognized in the Fingered mode.

* Notes enclosed in parentheses are optional; the chords will be
recognized without them.
If the chord is inverted (i.e., C-E-G is played
as G-C-E), the PSR-262 will still recognize it
as a C chord. The chord recognition system
also has the following rules and exceptions:
Minor 6th chords are recognized only in
root position, however; all other inversions
are interpreted as minor 7th/flatted 5th.
If augmented and diminished 7th chords
are inverted, the lowest note will be recog-
nized as the root.
7th flatted 5th chords may be played with
the lowest note as the root or the flatted
7th.
• Augmented 7th and diminished 7th chords
are interpreted as simple augmented and
diminished.
The following chords are not recognized :
B minor 6, B
b
minor 6, and B augmented.

What is a Chord?
The simple answer:
Three or more notes played simultaneously is a chord. (Two notes played
together is an “interval” — an interval being the distance between two different notes. This is also
referred to as a “harmony.”) Depending on the intervals between the three or more notes, a chord
can sound beautiful or muddy and dissonant.
The organization of notes in the example at left — a triad chord — pro-
duces a pleasant, harmonious sound. Triads are made up of three notes
and are the most basic and common chords in most music.
In this triad, the lowest note is the “root.” The root is the most important note in the chord, because
it anchors the sound harmonically by determining its “key” and forms the basis for how we hear the
other notes of the chord.
The second note of this chord is four semitones higher than the first, and the third is three semitones
higher than the second. Keeping our root note fixed and changing these notes by a semitone up or
down (sharp or flat), we can create four different chords.
Keep in mind that we can also change the “voicing” of a chord — for example, change the order of
the notes (called “inversions”), or play the same notes in different octaves — without changing the
basic nature of the chord itself.
Beautiful sounding harmonies can be built in this manner. The use of intervals and chords is one of
the most important elements in music. A wide variety of emotions and feelings can be created
depending on the types of chords used and the order in which they are arranged.

Writing Chord Names
Knowing how to read and write chord names is an easy yet invaluable skill. Chords are often writ-
ten in a kind of shorthand that makes them instantly recognizable (and gives you the freedom to
play them with the voicing or inversion that you prefer). Once you understand the basic principles
of harmony and chords, it’s very simple to use this shorthand to write out the chords of a song.
First, write the root note of the chord in an uppercase letter. If you need to specify sharp or flat,
indicate that to the right of the root. The chord type should be indicated to the right as well. Exam-
ples for the key of C are shown below.
One important point:
Chords are made up of notes “stacked” on top of each other, and the stacked
notes are indicated in the chord name of the chord type as a number — the number being the dis-
tance of the note from the root. (See the keyboard diagram below.) For example, the minor 6th
chord includes the 6th note of the scale, the major 7th chord has the 7th note of the scale, etc.
The Intervals of the Scale
To better understand the intervals and the numbers
used to represent them in the chord name, study this
diagram of the C major scale:

Multi Pads
These convenient pads let you instantly trigger various musical and rhythmic
phrases as you play the PSR-262. There are a total of 40 different sounds or
phrases (10 banks, with four pad sounds for each bank). The phrases play back at
the same speed as the Tempo setting, and they also change harmonically along
with the accompaniment chords (both in the Style and Song modes).
1 Select the Pad function in the Overall menu.
Press the [OVERALL] button, repeatedly if necessary, until MULTI PAD is
selected in the display.
2 Select the desired bank.
Use the numeric keypad to select the desired bank number (1 - 10). You can
also use the [+]/[-] buttons to increase or decrease the value. Holding down
either button continuously increases or decreases the value. For a complete
list of the available banks and their contents, see page 57.
3 Play the Multi Pads.
Press one of the Pads. The phrase plays uninterrupted until it is finished.
Pressing it repeatedly (before the phrase completely plays back) creates a
“stutter” effect.
In the Style mode, melodic-type sounds correctly follow the chord changes.
All sounds play back in perfect time with the current Tempo setting. When
One Touch Setting (page 26) is on, appropriate Multi Pad banks for the
selected style are automatically called up. This applies to the DJ and Portable
Grand features as well.

MIDI
The PSR-262 also features MIDI terminals, allowing
you to interface the PSR-262 with other MIDI instru-
ments and devices.
About MIDI
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a worldwide standard that is built into many elec-
tronic musical instruments and other digital music related devices, allowing them to be connected
and “communicate” with each other.
For two MIDI instruments to communicate, they must be connected by MIDI cables. In a basic
example, the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT terminals of the PSR-262 could be connected to the MIDI
OUT and MIDI IN terminals of a sequencer, allowing you to record and play back performance
data from the PSR-262.
The instruments communicate with each other by sending “messages” or MIDI data. The sending
instrument usually assigns the data to one of sixteen MIDI channels, then transmits it over the
MIDI cable. The cable itself, however, is not divided up into sixteen channels. Just as with a tele-
vision set that receives programs on different channels, it is up to the receiving instrument to “tune
into” the proper MIDI channel. If the sending and receiving channels on the respective instruments
do not match, the receiving instrument may not understand or respond to the one sending.
How Can MIDI be Used?
In the simple, yet powerful MIDI application example below, the Yamaha
QY-70 Music Sequencer is used to record and play back performance
data played on the PSR-262 keyboard.
Before actually recording to the sequencer, press the [ACCOMPANIMENT
ON/OFF] button once or twice to make sure that the current settings are
sent.

sending device.

board performance) to the

Connect the MIDI OUT

On the PSR-262, the following channels
(eight total) are enabled for MIDI reception:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10. The MIDI transmit
channels are fixed to the following data:
Ch. 1 : Keyboard, harmony
Ch. 2 : Bass
Ch. 3 : Chord
Ch. 4 - 7 : Other
Ch. 10 : Rhythm
Parts that have been recorded using the
PSR-262 should also be played back from
the PSR-262. Data may not play back as
expected when using other sound sources
(such as the internal sounds of the QY-70).
Also, a connected sound source may sound
at a different octave from that originally
played on the PSR-262.
MIDI data cannot be transmitted during
song playback.
Avoid using MIDI cables 15 meters or
longer, since doing so can result in MIDI
errors.
Viewing the Notation for MIDI Channel 1
The PSR-262 has a special function that
lets you view the notes of the MIDI data
(channel 1 only) on the display.

Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Cause and Solution
When the PSR-262 is turned on or off, a popping
sound is temporarily produced.
This is normal and indicates that the PSR-262 is receiving electrical power.
When using a mobile phone, noise is produced. Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the PSR-262 may produce interfer-
ence. To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or use it further away from the
PSR-262.
The sound of the voices or rhythms seems unusual
or strange.
The battery power is too low. Replace the batteries. (See page 8.)
There is no sound even when the keyboard is
played or when a Song is being played back.
Check that nothing is connected to the PHONES/OUTPUT jack on the rear panel.
When a set of headphones is plugged into this jack, no sound is output.
When playing back one of the Pianist styles (#081 -
#100), the rhythm cannot be heard.
This is normal. The Pianist styles have no drums or bass only piano accom-
paniment. The accompaniment of the style can only be heard when accompani-
ment is set to ON and keys are played in the auto accompaniment section of the
keyboard.
The auto accompaniment doesnt turn on, even
when pressing the [ACCOMPANIMENT ON/OFF]
button.
Make sure the Style mode is active before using the auto accompaniment. Press
the [STYLE] button to enable style operations.
Not all notes are heard when playing a number of
notes simultaneously.
Too many keys are pressed at the same time. The PSR-262 is polyphonic up to
a maximum of 16 notes.
Playing keys in the right hand section of the key-
board does not produce any sound.
When using the Dictionary function (page 41), the keys in the right hand section
are used only for entering the chord root and type.
The accompaniment does not sound properly. Make sure that the Accompaniment Volume (page 47) is set to an appropriate lev-
el.
The Multi Pad sound is cut off or sounds unusual. The PSR-262 is polyphonic up to a maximum of 16 notes. If a style or song is
playing back at the same time a Multi Pad is played, some notes/sounds of the
Multi Pad may be omitted (or stolen) from the accompaniment or song.
The sound of the voice changes from note to note. The AWM tone generation method uses multiple recordings (samples) of an in-
strument across the range of the keyboard; thus, the actual sound of the voice
may be slightly different from note to note.
The notes shown in the music staves and keyboard
diagram in the display do not match the keys actual-
ly played.
When auto accompaniment is on, the display shows the specific notes of the
chords you play in the auto accompaniment section of the keyboard. If you play
a single finger chord, or an inversion of a chord, the corresponding chord will be
appropriately displayed even if the display does not exactly match the pressed
keys.
The footswitch (for sustain) seems to produce the
opposite effect. For example, pressing the foot-
switch cuts off the sound and releasing it sustains
the sounds.
The polarity of the footswitch is reversed. Make sure that the footswitch plug is
properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power.

WARNING Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following: • Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel. • Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill into any openings. • If the AC adaptor cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch, disconnect the adaptor plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel. • Use the specified adaptor (PA-3B or an equivalent recommended by Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument or overheating. • Before cleaning the instrument, always remove the electric plug from the outlet. Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands. • Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have accumulated on it. CAUTION Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following: • Do not place the AC adaptor cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over it. • When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. • Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet. • Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during electrical storms. • Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with the +/polarity markings. Failure to do so might result in overheating, fire, or battery fluid leakage. • Always replace all batteries at the same time. Do not use new batteries together with old ones.

Make sure to read this section carefully before using the instrument. Power Requirements Although the PSR-262 will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries, Yamaha recommends use of an AC adaptor whenever possible. An AC adaptor is more environmentally friendly than batteries and does not deplete resources. ■ Using an AC Power Adaptor • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • To connect your PSR-262 to a wall socket, you will need the optionally available Yamaha PA-3B Power Adaptor. Use of other AC adaptors could result in damage to the instrument, so be sure to ask for the right kind. Connect one end of the adaptor to the DC IN 10-12V jack on the rear panel of your PSR-262, and the other end to a suitable electrical outlet. • Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-3B AC Power Adaptor (or other adaptor specifically recommended by Yamaha) to power your instrument from the AC mains. The use of other adaptors may result in irreparable damage to both the adaptor and the PSR262. • Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the PSR-262, or during electrical storms. ■ Using Batteries • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • ● Inserting Batteries Turn the instrument upside-down and remove the battery compartment lid. Insert six 1.5-volt size “D” (SUM-1, R-20 or equivalent) batteries as shown in the illustration, making sure that the positive and negative terminals are properly aligned, and replace the lid. • Never mix old and new batteries or different types of batteries (e.g., alkaline and manganese). • To prevent possible damage from battery leakage, remove the batteries from the instrument if it is not to be used for a long time. BATTERIES 1.5V x 6 ● When the Batteries Run Down When the batteries run low and the battery voltage drops below a certain level, the PSR-262 may not sound or function properly. As soon as this happens, replace them with a complete set of six new batteries. Turning On the Power With the AC power adaptor connected or with batteries installed, simply press the STANDBY switch until it locks in the ON position. When the instrument is not in use, be sure to turn the power off. (Press the switch again so that it pops up.) 8 • 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 PSR-262 for a long time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet, and/or remove the batteries from the instrument. Setting Up Accessory Jacks ■ Using Headphones• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • For private practicing and playing without disturbing others, connect a set of stereo headphones to the rear panel PHONES/OUTPUT jack. Sound from the builtin speaker system is automatically cut off when you insert a headphone plug into this jack. ■ Connecting a Keyboard Amplifier or Stereo System • • • • • • • Though the PSR-262 is equipped with a built-in speaker system, you can also play it through an external amplifier/speaker system. First, make sure the PSR-262 and any external devices are turned off, then connect one end of a stereo audio cable to the LINE IN or AUX IN jack(s) of the other device and the other end to the rear panel PHONES/OUTPUT jack on the PSR-262. • To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the external devices at the minimum setting before connecting them. Failure to observe these cautions may result in electric shock or equipment damage. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all devices at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level. ■ Using a Sustain Footswitch • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • This feature lets you use an optional footswitch (Yamaha FC4 or FC5) to sustain the sound of the keyboard voice. This is used in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano — press and hold down the footswitch as you play the keyboard to sustain the sound. ■ Using the MIDI Terminals • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power. • Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, resulting in reversed footswitch operation. MIDI instrument The PSR-262 also features MIDI terminals, allowing you to interface the PSR262 with other MIDI instruments and devices. (For more information, see page 52.)

Lesson steps 1 - 3 can be used with DJ play. Press either the [L] or [R] button, repeatedly if necessary, until the desired Lesson step is called up. The DJ voice is divided into “blocks” (as shown below). Each block has a different sound. Block #1 Block #2 Block #3 Block #4 • If two sixteenth notes are to be played, the appropriate block numbers appear successively at the same position. If the same block is to be played twice as sixteenth notes, an equal sign appears after the block number (as shown below). 3 1 3 = For Lesson 1, any note on the keyboard can be played. For the other Lesson steps, play the appropriate octave block. Once the song starts playing and the DJ “teacher” says “Go,” play the appropriate block as indicated in the display. (When Talking is on, the blocks are also “announced” in Lesson 2.) r1 1 32 33 Block number When the DJ “teacher” is playing, the block numbers appear in the display one after another according to the rhythm. 3 Indicates that the third block and first block are to be played as succesive sixteenth notes. Indicates that the third block is to be played as two sixteenth notes. • Since there are no left or right parts in the DJ song, the [L] and [R] buttons can be used interchangeably. Also for the same reason, Lesson 3 and Lesson 4 are identical. Press the [START/STOP] button to stop the song. • In the DJ Lesson, you can play the Multi Pads as well as the keyboard. • Try playing one of the special DJ voices (#098, #099) with the DJ song. (See page 24.) 22 Selecting and Playing Voices The PSR-262 features 100 authentic voices that have been created with Yamaha’s sophisticated AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) tone generation system. Many of these voices also have special preset characteristics or embellishments. The voices are divided into various categories depending on their characteristics or the effects used. Selecting and Playing a Voice 1 Press the [VOICE] button. Voice name and number 000 GrandPno TEMPO 116 2 Select the desired voice number. Use the numeric keypad. The basic categories of voices and their numbers are shown on the panel. There are two ways to select voices: 1) directly entering the voice number with the numeric keypad, or 2) using the [+]/[-] buttons to step up and down through the voices. 23 Selecting and Playing Voices ■ Using the numeric keypad Enter the digits of the voice number as printed on the panel. For example, to select voice #042, press “0” on the numeric keypad, then “4.”, “2.” For voice numbers beginning with zeroes (such as #042 or #006), the initial zeroes may be omitted. 042 Fr.Horn TEMPO 116 ■ Using the [+]/[-] buttons Press the [+] button to select the next voice number, and press the [-] button to select the previous voice. Holding down either key continuously scrolls up or down through the numbers. • Each voice is automatically called up with the most suitable octave range setting. Thus, playing middle C with one voice may sound higher or lower than another voice at the same key. • Four of the Organ voices are effect “pairs.” Switching between each of the paired voices (with the [+]/[-] buttons) turns the effect of the voice on or off. For example, for the Vibrato pair (#010 and #011), selecting #010 turns the vibrato effect off, while selecting #011 turns vibrato on. The same applies to the Harmony, Attack and Wave voices (#012 - #017). 3 Play the selected voice. • The PSR-262 is polyphonic up to a maximum of 16 notes. (Depending on the voice selected — such as split voices and dual voices — fewer notes may be available.) This includes not only the notes played from the keyboard, but also the notes in a style pattern, the notes played by a Pad (page 51), and so on. Thus, if you play too many notes at one time, some may not sound and/or others may be cancelled. 24 Selecting and Playing Voices Harmony voices (#059 - #068) automatically add a one-, two- or three-note harmony to the original voice. Split voices (#069 - #073) feature two separate voices, each playable from opposite sections of the keyboard — the lower voice playable up to B2 and the upper voice from C3 (middle C). Sustain voices (#074 - #078) have a special sustained release for playing slower or legato passages. Echo voices (#079 - #088) provide an echo effect that adds delayed repeats to the original voice. Dual voices (#089 - #097) blend two voices together for a rich, layered sound. There’s even a dynamic set of DJ voices (#098 - #099) that provides a wealth of exciting sounds for playing many of today’s popular music styles. The PSR-262 also features special Drum Kit voices — #088 (with Echo) and #100 — that let you play a variety of drum and percussion sounds from the keyboard. (Refer to the Drum Kit Voice Chart below.) Icons representing each sound are printed above the keyboard, conveniently indicating which sounds are played from which keys. About the Harmony voices • Since Harmony voices are designed to automatically play two or more notes with the notes you play on the keyboard, only one note can be played on the keyboard at a time. If several notes are played together, only the last note or highest note played will be used for the harmony effect.

Touch Response The PSR-262 features a Touch Response function that gives you dynamic, expressive control over the volume of the voices. The Touch Sensitivity parameter lets you set the degree of Touch Response. To turn on Touch Response, press the [TOUCH] button. on TOUCH ■ Changing the Touch Sensitivity Value • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Press and hold down the [TOUCH] button, then press the appropriate numbered button on the numeric keypad: 1, 2, or 3. 2 Medium Settings: 1 (Soft) 2 (Medium) 3 (Hard) This results in limited touch response, and produces a relatively narrow dynamic range, no matter how lightly or strongly you play the keys. This lets you play over a normal dynamic range (soft to loud). This is designed for playing very soft passages, giving you slightly more detailed control in the soft volume range. When Touch is turned off, a constant volume (corresponding to a velocity value of 80) is produced. Restoring the Default Touch Sensitivity Value The default Touch Sensitivity is 2 (Medium). To restore the default value, press both [+]/[-] buttons simultaneously (when Touch Sensitivity is selected). 28 Selecting and Playing Songs The Song mode features 100 special songs that have been created using the rich and dynamic sounds of the PSR-262. The songs are generally for your listening enjoyment; however, you can also play along with them on the keyboard.

Dict. 8va TEMPO ACMP ON 116 M7 Flashes when correct notes are held. Indicates notes to be played. To leave the Dictionary function, press the [Dict.] button again. 41 Selecting and Playing Styles The PSR-262 provides dynamic rhythm/accompaniment patterns — as well as voice settings appropriate for each pattern — for various popular music styles. A total of 100 different styles are available, in several different categories. Each style is made up of separate “sections” — Intro, Main A and B (with 2 Fill-ins), and Ending — letting you call up different accompaniment patterns as you perform. The auto accompaniment features that are built into the rhythms add the excitement of instrumental backing to your performance, letting you control the accompaniment by the chords you play. Auto accompaniment effectively splits the keyboard into two sections: The upper is used for playing a melody line, and the lower (labeled “ACMP” in green above the keyboard, at F#2) is for the auto accompaniment function. The PSR-262 also features the convenient Dictionary function. Dictionary provides you with a built-in “chord encyclopedia” that teaches you how to play any chord you specify by showing you the appropriate notes in the display. Selecting and Playing a Style 1 Press the [STYLE] button. Style name and number 001 8Bt Pop TEMPO 116 2 Select the desired style number. Use the numeric keypad. Available styles are listed at the center of the panel. Style numbers can be selected in the same way as with the voices (see page 23). You can use the numeric keypad to directly enter the style number, or use the [+]/[-] buttons to step up and down through the style numbers. 42 Selecting and Playing Styles Playing the Accompaniment When the Style mode is active, the panel buttons below the function as style controls. Pressing this button switches between the Main A and Main B sections, automatically adding a fill-in pattern before changing the section. (See page 46.) Pressing this button alternately enables and cancels the bass and chord accompaniment. Pressing this button alternately enables and cancels the Sync Start function. (See page 44.) 1 This controls the Intro and Ending sections. (See pages 45, 46.) Pressing this button alternately starts and stops style playback. Press the [ACCOMPANIMENT ON/OFF] button. This enables the auto accompaniment. 001 8Bt Pop TEMPO ACMP ON 116 Indicates that auto accompaniment is on. 2 Start the accompaniment. You can do this in one of the following ways: ■ Pressing the [START/STOP] button The rhythm starts playing immediately without bass and chord accompaniment. The currently selected Main A or B section will play. (You can select either by repeatedly pressing the [MAIN/AUTO FILL] button, before pressing the [START/STOP] button.) 43 Selecting and Playing Styles ■ Using Tap Tempo to start This useful feature lets you tap out the speed (tempo) of the auto accompaniment and automatically start the accompaniment at that tapped speed. Simply tap the [TEMPO/TAP] button four times (or three times for a 3/4 time style), and the accompaniment starts automatically at the tempo you tapped. You can also change the tempo while the accompaniment is playing by tapping the [TEMPO/ TAP] button twice at the desired tempo. ■ Using Sync Start The PSR-262 also has a Sync Start function that allows you to start the rhythm/accompaniment by simply pressing a key on the keyboard. To use Sync Start, first press the [SYNC START] button (the handclap icon flashes to indicate Sync Start stand-by), then press any key in the ACMP section of the keyboard (or any key when accompaniment is off). Handclap icon flases About the Beat Display The handclap icon in the display flashes in time with the current tempo during playback of a style (or song). The flashing pattern provides a visual indication of both the tempo and time signature of the style or song. (For more information, see page 31.) 44 Selecting and Playing Styles Starting with an section First, press the [MAIN/AUTO FILL] button, repeatedly if necessary, to select which section (A or B) is to follow the Intro. Next, press the [INTRO/ENDING] button to set the Intro to standby. INTRO≥A TEMPO 116 Indicates that Intro is on, and will be followed by the Main A section. To actually start the Intro section and accompaniment, press the [START/ STOP] button. Using Sync Start with an Intro section First, press the [MAIN/AUTO FILL] button, repeatedly if necessary, to select which section (A or B) is to follow the Intro. Next, press the [INTRO/ENDING] button. Indicates that Intro will be followed by the Main A section. INTRO≥A TEMPO 116 Finally, press the [SYNC START] button to enable Sync Start, and start the Intro section and style by playing any key in the ACMP section of the keyboard. Handclap icon flashes 3 Change chords using the auto accompaniment feature. Try playing a few successive chords with your left hand, and notice how the bass and chord accompaniment change with each chord you play. • The [ACCOMPANIMENT ON/ OFF] button can also be used to turn off and on the bass/chord accompaniment while playing — allowing you to create dynamic rhythmic breaks in your performance. • Chords played in the ACMP section of the keyboard are also detected and played when the accompaniment is stopped. In effect, this gives you a “split keyboard,” with bass and chords in the left hand and the normally selected voice in the right. 45 Selecting and Playing Styles 4 Stop the style. You can do this in one of three ways: ■ Pressing the [START/STOP] button The rhythm/accompaniment stops playing immediately. ■ Using an Ending section Press the [INTRO/ENDING] button. The style stops after the Ending section is finished. ■ Pressing the [SYNC START] button This stops the style and automatically enables Sync Start, letting you re-start the style by simply playing a chord or key in the ACMP section of the keyboard (or any key when accompaniment is off). • To have the Ending section gradually slow down (ritardando) as it is playing, press the [INTRO/ ENDING] button twice quickly. Changing the Tempo The Tempo of song (and style) playback can be adjusted over a range of 40 - 240 bpm (beats per minute). For instructions on changing the Tempo, see page 31. • Each style has been given a default or standard tempo. When style playback is stopped and a different style is selected, the tempo returns to the default setting of the new style. When switching styles during playback, the last tempo setting is maintained. (This allows you to keep the same tempo, even when changing styles.) • You can also use the convenient Tap Tempo function to change the tempo by “tapping” a new one in real time. (See page 44.) Style Sections (Main A, Main B) and Fill-ins While the style is playing you can create dynamic variation in the rhythm and accompaniment by pressing the [MAIN/AUTO FILL] button. This switches between the Main A and Main B sections, automatically playing a fill-in pattern to smoothly lead into the next section. For example, if the Main A section is currently playing, pressing this button automatically plays a fill-in pattern, followed by the Main B section. You can also select either the Main A or B section to start by pressing the [MAIN/ AUTO FILL] button before starting the style. 46 • Fill-in patterns are not available when one of the Pianist styles (#081 - #100) are selected. Selecting and Playing Styles About the Fill-in Patterns If you press the [MAIN/AUTO FILL] button before beat 4... ...a fill-in pattern plays immediately until the end of the measure... 1st measure beat 1 2 3 4 If you press the [MAIN/AUTO FILL] button here, after beat 4... ...and the Main A or B section begins here. 2nd measure 1 2 3 4 ...a fill-in pattern plays from here... 3rd measure 1 2 3 ...and the Main A or B section begins here. Adjusting the Accompaniment Volume The playback volume of the accompaniment can be adjusted. This volume control affects only the style volume. The volume range is 000 - 127. 1 Select the Accompaniment Volume function in the Overall menu. Press the [OVERALL] button, repeatedly if necessary, until “ACMP VOL” appears in the display. Current Accompaniment Volume value 110 ACMP VOL TEMPO Indicates Accompaniment Volume is selected 2 ACMP ON 116 Change the value. Use the numeric keypad to set the desired Accompaniment Volume value (000 - 127). You can also use the [+]/[-] buttons to increase or decrease the value. Holding down either button continuously increases or decreases the value. • Accompaniment Volume cannot be changed unless the Style mode is active. Restoring the Default Accompaniment Volume Value If you’ve changed the Accompaniment Volume setting, you can instantly restore the default setting of “110” by pressing both [+]/[-] buttons simultaneously (when Accompaniment Volume is selected). 47 Selecting and Playing Styles Using Auto Accompaniment — Multi Fingering The auto accompaniment function automatically generates bass and chord accompaniment for you to play along with, by using Multi Fingering operation. You can change the chords of the accompaniment by playing keys in the ACMP section of the keyboard using either the “Single Finger” or “Fingered” method. With Single Finger you can simply play a one-, two- or three-finger chord indication (see Single Finger Chords below). The Fingered technique is that of conventionally playing all the notes of the chord. Whichever method you use, the PSR-262 “understands” what chord you indicate and then automatically generates the accompaniment. ■ Single Finger Chords • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Chords that can be produced in Single Finger operation are major, minor, seventh and minor seventh. The illustration below shows how to produce the four chord types. (The key of C is used here as an example; other keys follow the same rules. For example, Bb7 is played as Bb and A.) C Cm To play a major chord: Press the root note of the chord. C7 To play a minor chord: Press the root note together with the nearest black key to the left of it. Cm 7 To play a seventh chord: Press the root note together with the nearest white key to the left of it. To play a minor seventh chord: Press the root note together with the nearest white and black keys to the left of it (three keys altogether). ■ Fingered Chords • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Using the key of C as an example, the chart below shows the types of chords that can be recognized in the Fingered mode. Fingered Chords in the Key of C Cm Caug (7aug) Cdim (dim7) If the chord is inverted (i.e., C-E-G is played as G-C-E), the PSR-262 will still recognize it as a C chord. The chord recognition system also has the following rules and exceptions: ( ) ( ) C ) C 7 sus4 ( ) Cm 7 b5 ( ) ) ( C 7 b5 CmM 7 CM 7 Cm 7 C7 ( Csus 4 Cm 6 C (9) * Notes enclosed in parentheses are optional; the chords will be recognized without them. 48 • Minor 6th chords are recognized only in root position, however; all other inversions are interpreted as minor 7th/flatted 5th. • If augmented and diminished 7th chords are inverted, the lowest note will be recognized as the root. • 7th flatted 5th chords may be played with the lowest note as the root or the flatted 7th. • Augmented 7th and diminished 7th chords are interpreted as simple augmented and diminished. • The following chords are not recognized : B minor 6, Bb minor 6, and B augmented. Selecting and Playing Styles • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • What is a Chord? • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • The simple answer: Three or more notes played simultaneously is a chord. (Two notes played together is an “interval” — an interval being the distance between two different notes. This is also referred to as a “harmony.”) Depending on the intervals between the three or more notes, a chord can sound beautiful or muddy and dissonant. The organization of notes in the example at left — a triad chord — produces a pleasant, harmonious sound. Triads are made up of three notes and are the most basic and common chords in most music. In this triad, the lowest note is the “root.” The root is the most important note in the chord, because it anchors the sound harmonically by determining its “key” and forms the basis for how we hear the other notes of the chord. The second note of this chord is four semitones higher than the first, and the third is three semitones higher than the second. Keeping our root note fixed and changing these notes by a semitone up or down (sharp or flat), we can create four different chords. Major chord (ex. C) Minor 3rd Major 3rd Minor chord (ex. Cm) Major 3rd Minor 3rd Augmented chord (ex. Caug) Diminished chord (ex. Cdim) Major 3rd Minor 3rd Major 3rd Minor 3rd Keep in mind that we can also change the “voicing” of a chord — for example, change the order of the notes (called “inversions”), or play the same notes in different octaves — without changing the basic nature of the chord itself. Inversion examples for the key of C G E C C G E E C G Beautiful sounding harmonies can be built in this manner. The use of intervals and chords is one of the most important elements in music. A wide variety of emotions and feelings can be created depending on the types of chords used and the order in which they are arranged. 49 Selecting and Playing Styles • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Writing Chord Names• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Knowing how to read and write chord names is an easy yet invaluable skill. Chords are often written in a kind of shorthand that makes them instantly recognizable (and gives you the freedom to play them with the voicing or inversion that you prefer). Once you understand the basic principles of harmony and chords, it’s very simple to use this shorthand to write out the chords of a song. First, write the root note of the chord in an uppercase letter. If you need to specify sharp or flat, indicate that to the right of the root. The chord type should be indicated to the right as well. Examples for the key of C are shown below. Major chord Minor chord Augmented chord Diminished chord C Cm Caug Cdim For simple major chords, the type is omitted. One important point: Chords are made up of notes “stacked” on top of each other, and the stacked notes are indicated in the chord name of the chord type as a number — the number being the distance of the note from the root. (See the keyboard diagram below.) For example, the minor 6th chord includes the 6th note of the scale, the major 7th chord has the 7th note of the scale, etc. The Intervals of the Scale Dominant 7th (flatted 7th) To better understand the intervals and the numbers used to represent them in the chord name, study this diagram of the C major scale: C D E F G A B C D E F Root 4th 3rd 2nd 7th 6th 5th 11th 9th Octave Other Chords Csus4 5th C7 4th 50 Major chord Dominant 7th Cm7b5 CM7 7th Dominant 7th Cm7 Major chord Dominant 7th Minor chord Cm6 Diminished chord Minor chord C(9) 6th 9th Selecting and Playing Styles Multi Pads These convenient pads let you instantly trigger various musical and rhythmic phrases as you play the PSR-262. There are a total of 40 different sounds or phrases (10 banks, with four pad sounds for each bank). The phrases play back at the same speed as the Tempo setting, and they also change harmonically along with the accompaniment chords (both in the Style and Song modes). 1 Select the Pad function in the Overall menu. Press the [OVERALL] button, repeatedly if necessary, until MULTI PAD is selected in the display. Current Pad bank number 01 Indicates Multi Pad function is selected 2 Pianist TEMPO 116 Select the desired bank. Use the numeric keypad to select the desired bank number (1 - 10). You can also use the [+]/[-] buttons to increase or decrease the value. Holding down either button continuously increases or decreases the value. For a complete list of the available banks and their contents, see page 57. 3 Play the Multi Pads. Press one of the Pads. The phrase plays uninterrupted until it is finished. Pressing it repeatedly (before the phrase completely plays back) creates a “stutter” effect. In the Style mode, melodic-type sounds correctly follow the chord changes. All sounds play back in perfect time with the current Tempo setting. When One Touch Setting (page 26) is on, appropriate Multi Pad banks for the selected style are automatically called up. This applies to the DJ and Portable Grand features as well. • In the DJ GAME, you can play the Multi Pads as well as the keyboard. 51 MIDI The PSR-262 also features MIDI terminals, allowing you to interface the PSR-262 with other MIDI instruments and devices. Receives MIDI data from the connected sending device. Transmits MIDI data (keyboard performance) to the connected device. ■ About MIDI • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a worldwide standard that is built into many electronic musical instruments and other digital music related devices, allowing them to be connected and “communicate” with each other. For two MIDI instruments to communicate, they must be connected by MIDI cables. In a basic example, the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT terminals of the PSR-262 could be connected to the MIDI OUT and MIDI IN terminals of a sequencer, allowing you to record and play back performance data from the PSR-262. The instruments communicate with each other by sending “messages” or MIDI data. The sending instrument usually assigns the data to one of sixteen MIDI channels, then transmits it over the MIDI cable. The cable itself, however, is not divided up into sixteen channels. Just as with a television set that receives programs on different channels, it is up to the receiving instrument to “tune into” the proper MIDI channel. If the sending and receiving channels on the respective instruments do not match, the receiving instrument may not understand or respond to the one sending. ■ How Can MIDI be Used? • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • In the simple, yet powerful MIDI application example below, the Yamaha QY-70 Music Sequencer is used to record and play back performance data played on the PSR-262 keyboard. Before actually recording to the sequencer, press the [ACCOMPANIMENT ON/OFF] button once or twice to make sure that the current settings are sent. 001 GrandPno TEMPO 116 Connect the MIDI OUT of the PSR-262 to the MIDI IN of the QY-70 Connect the MIDI IN of the PSR-262 to the MIDI OUT of the QY-70 • On the PSR-262, the following channels (eight total) are enabled for MIDI reception: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10. The MIDI transmit channels are fixed to the following data: Ch. 1 : Keyboard, harmony Ch. 2 : Bass Ch. 3 : Chord Ch. 4 - 7 : Other Ch. 10 : Rhythm • Parts that have been recorded using the PSR-262 should also be played back from the PSR-262. Data may not play back as expected when using other sound sources (such as the internal sounds of the QY-70). Also, a connected sound source may sound at a different octave from that originally played on the PSR-262. • MIDI data cannot be transmitted during song playback. • Avoid using MIDI cables 15 meters or longer, since doing so can result in MIDI errors. Viewing the Notation for MIDI Channel 1 • The PSR-262 has a special function that lets you view the notes of the MIDI data (channel 1 only) on the display. 52 Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause and Solution When the PSR-262 is turned on or off, a popping sound is temporarily produced. This is normal and indicates that the PSR-262 is receiving electrical power. When using a mobile phone, noise is produced. Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the PSR-262 may produce interference. To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or use it further away from the PSR-262. The sound of the voices or rhythms seems unusual or strange. The battery power is too low. Replace the batteries. (See page 8.) There is no sound even when the keyboard is played or when a Song is being played back. Check that nothing is connected to the PHONES/OUTPUT jack on the rear panel. When a set of headphones is plugged into this jack, no sound is output. When playing back one of the Pianist styles (#081 #100), the rhythm cannot be heard. This is normal. The Pianist styles have no drums or bass — only piano accompaniment. The accompaniment of the style can only be heard when accompaniment is set to ON and keys are played in the auto accompaniment section of the keyboard. The auto accompaniment doesn’t turn on, even when pressing the [ACCOMPANIMENT ON/OFF] button. Make sure the Style mode is active before using the auto accompaniment. Press the [STYLE] button to enable style operations. Not all notes are heard when playing a number of notes simultaneously. Too many keys are pressed at the same time. The PSR-262 is polyphonic up to a maximum of 16 notes. Playing keys in the right hand section of the keyboard does not produce any sound. When using the Dictionary function (page 41), the keys in the right hand section are used only for entering the chord root and type. The accompaniment does not sound properly. Make sure that the Accompaniment Volume (page 47) is set to an appropriate level. The Multi Pad sound is cut off or sounds unusual. The PSR-262 is polyphonic up to a maximum of 16 notes. If a style or song is playing back at the same time a Multi Pad is played, some notes/sounds of the Multi Pad may be omitted (or “stolen”) from the accompaniment or song. The sound of the voice changes from note to note. The AWM tone generation method uses multiple recordings (samples) of an instrument across the range of the keyboard; thus, the actual sound of the voice may be slightly different from note to note. The notes shown in the music staves and keyboard diagram in the display do not match the keys actually played. When auto accompaniment is on, the display shows the specific notes of the chords you play in the auto accompaniment section of the keyboard. If you play a single finger chord, or an inversion of a chord, the corresponding chord will be appropriately displayed — even if the display does not exactly match the pressed keys. The footswitch (for sustain) seems to produce the opposite effect. For example, pressing the footswitch cuts off the sound and releasing it sustains the sounds. The polarity of the footswitch is reversed. Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power. 53 Voice List The following voices can be selected when the Voice mode is active, or when the Voice Change function is on. They can also be selected by a connected MIDI device; the corresponding bank select messages are: MSB = 00H, LSB = 70H. When selecting voices via MIDI: * The Harmony voices (#059 - #068) and Echo voices (#079 - #088) are sounded without the respective harmony and echo effects. ● Panel Voice List 54 Voice# MIDI Program Change# 001 002 003 004 005 006 007 008 009 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 010 011 012 013 014 015 016 017 018 019 020 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 021 022 023 024 025 026 027 028 029 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 030 031 032 033 034 035 036 037 038 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 039 040 041 042 043 044 045 046 047 048 049 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 050 051 052 49 50 51 Voice Name PIANO GRAND PIANO HONKY-TONK E PIANO 1 E PIANO 2 E PIANO 3 E PIANO 4 HARPSICHORD CLAVI CELESTA ORGAN VIBRATO OFF VIBRATO ON HARMONY OFF HARMONY ON ATTACK OFF ATTACK ON WAVE OFF WAVE ON PIPE ORGAN ACCORDION HARMONICA GUITAR/BASS SOFT GUITAR FOLK GUITAR 12ST GUITAR JAZZ GUITAR E GUITAR DIST GUITAR WOOD BASS FINGER BASS SLAP BASS STRINGS/MALLET STRINGS VIOLIN CELLO HARP SITAR BANJO VIBRAPHONE MARIMBA STEEL DRUMS WIND TRUMPET TROMBONE MUTE TRPET FRENCH HORN BRASS SECT ALTO SAX TENOR SAX OBOE CLARINET FLUTE PAN FLUTE SYNTHESIZER THICK LEAD SIMPLE LEAD THICK SAW Used Notes 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 1 1 2 1 2 2 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 1 2 053 054 055 056 057 058 MIDI Program Change# 52 53 54 55 56 57 059 060 061 062 063 064 065 066 067 068 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 069 070 071 072 073 68 69 70 71 72 074 075 076 077 078 73 74 75 76 77 079 080 081 082 083 084 085 086 087 088 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 *1 089 090 091 092 093 094 095 096 097 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 098 099 97 98 100 *2 Voice# Voice Name SIMPLE SAW SYNTH BASS SY STRINGS SY BRASS SLOW STRS CHORUS HARMONY PIANO TRIO PNO COUNTRY E PNO TRIO HARPSI TRIO E ORG TRIO VIBES DUET TRP DUET HORN DUET CLARINET TR FLUTE DUET SPLIT WD BASS/PNO STRINGS/PNO FN BA/E PNO HARP/VIOLIN HORN/TRP SUSTAIN SUS PIANO SUS E PNO1 SUS E PNO2 SUS VIBRAPHONE SUS STRINGS ECHO PIANO E PIANO HARPSICHORD CELESTA FOLK GUITAR BANJO VIBRAPHONE MARIMBA STEEL DRUMS DRUM KIT DUAL PNO CONCE E PNO CONCE FAIRY LAND MOOD GUITAR RICH GUITAR HOT ORGAN EXCEL VIOLIN CRYSTAL STAR SHIP DJ Voice DJ VOICE 1 DJ VOICE 2 DRUMS DRUM KIT *1 MSB=7FH, LSB=00H, Prg Ch#=1 *2 MSB=7FH, LSB=00H, Prg Ch#=2 Used Notes 1 1 1 2 1 1 3 2 3 3 3 2 2 2 3 2 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 1 1 Voice List The following voices cannot be directly selected from the panel controls; they are special voices programmed into the songs of the PSR-262 and are selected automatically in song playback.
