PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
Please keep this manual in a safe and handy 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 place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators. Also,
do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, or place heavy objects on
it.
Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage
is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
Use the specified adaptor (page 65) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in
damage to the instrument or overheating.
Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have
accumulated on it.
This instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not open the instrument
or attempt to disassemble or modify the internal components in any way. 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, place on it any containers (such as vases, bottles or glasses)
containing liquids which might spill into any openings. If any liquid such as
water seeps into the instrument, turn off the power immediately and unplug the
power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified
Yamaha service personnel.
Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit. A burning item may fall
over and cause a fire.
Follow the precautions below. Failure to do so might result in explosion, fire,
overheating or battery fluid leakage.
- Do not tamper with or disassemble batteries.
- Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
- Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not designed to be charged.
- Keep the batteries separate from metallic objects such as necklaces, hairpins,
coins, and keys.
- Use the specified battery type (page 13) only.
- Use new batteries, all of which are the same type, same model, and made by
the same manufacturer.
- Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with the +/- polarity
markings.
- When the batteries run out, or if the instrument is not to be used for a long
time, remove the batteries from the instrument.
- When using Ni-MH batteries, follow the instructions that came with the
batteries. Use only the specified charger device when charging.
Keep batteries away from small children who might accidentally swallow them.
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 immediately with
water and consult a doctor. Battery fluid is corrosive and may possibly cause loss
of sight or chemical burns.
When one of the following problems occur, immediately turn off the power switch
and disconnect the electric plug from the outlet. (If you are using batteries,
remove all batteries from the instrument.) Then have the device inspected by
Yamaha service personnel.
- The power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged.
- It emits unusual smells or smoke.
- Some object has been dropped into the instrument.
- There is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument.
CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage
to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector.
Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the
outlet.
When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold
the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.
Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for
extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally
fall over.
Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent damage
to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them.

PSR-E443 Owner’s Manual
When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily
accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power
switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is
turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When
you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power
cord from the wall AC outlet.
Use only the stand 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.
Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the
power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components,
set all volume levels to minimum.
Be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum levels and
gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the
desired listening level.
Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.
Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel or
keyboard. This could cause physical injury to you or others, damage to the
instrument or other property, or operational failure.
Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not
use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long period of time at a
high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing
loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a
physician.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.
Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (display is off), electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level.
When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.
Make sure to discard used batteries according to local regulations.
NOTICE
To avoid the possibility of malfunction/ damage to the product, damage to data, or damage to other property, follow the notices below.
Handling and Maintenance
Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise.
When you use the instrument along with an application on your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, we recommend that you set “Airplane Mode” to “ON” on that device in order to
avoid noise caused by communication.
Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the
possibility of panel disfiguration, damage to the internal components or unstable operation. (Verified operating temperature range: 5° – 40°C, or 41° – 104°F.)
Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.
When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
Saving data
Some data items (page 34) are automatically saved as backup data in the internal memory even if you turn the power off. Saved data may be lost due to malfunction or incorrect
operation. Save important data to external device such as a USB flash memory (page 56).
To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that you save your important data onto two USB flash memories.

Power Requirements
Although the instrument will run either from an
optional AC adaptor or batteries, Yamaha recom-
mends use of an AC adaptor whenever possible. An
AC adaptor is more environmentally friendly than bat-
teries and does not deplete resources.
Using an AC Power Adaptor
1 Make sure that the power of the instrument is off
(display is blank, except for notation staff).
2 Connect the AC adaptor to the power supply jack.
3 Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.
Notice for the AC adaptor
Depending on your particular locale, the AC adaptor
having a separable plug should be used. In this case,
make sure to follow the explanations below for your
safety.
If the plug is accidentally removed from the AC
adaptor
Without touching the metallic section, slide the plug
into place as shown below then push it in completely
until you hear the click sound.
• Use the specified adaptor (page 65) only. Using the
wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument
or overheating.
• This adaptor is for indoor use only. Do not expose the
instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet
conditions, or use it to hold any containers (such as
vases, bottles or glasses) containing liquids which
might spill into any openings.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC
outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trou-
ble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the
power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet.
Even when the power switch is turned off, electricity is
still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When
you are not using the product for a long time, make
sure to unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

• Make sure to keep the plug attached to the AC adaptor.
Using the plug alone can cause electric shock or fire.
• Never touch the metallic section when attaching the plug.
To avoid electric shock, short circuit or damage, also be
careful that there is no dust between the AC adaptor and
plug.
Slide the plug as
indicated.
The shape of the
plug differs depend-
ing on locale.

Using Batteries
This instrument requires six “AA” size, Alkaline
(LR6)/Manganese (R6) batteries, or rechargeable
nickel-metal hydride batteries (rechargeable Ni-MH
batteries). The Alkaline batteries or rechargeable Ni-
MH batteries are recommended for this instrument,
since other types may result in poorer battery perfor-
mance.
Installing the batteries
1 Make sure that the power of the instrument is off
(display is blank, except for notation staff).
2 Open the battery compartment cover located on the
instrument’s bottom panel.
3 Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow
the polarity markings on the inside of the compart-
ment.
4 Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it
locks firmly in place.
When battery power becomes too low for proper oper-
ation, the volume may be reduced, the sound may be
distorted, and other problems may occur. When this
happens, make sure to replace all batteries with new
ones or already-recharged ones.
Setting the battery type
After installing the new batteries then turning the
power on, make sure to set the Battery Type to
Rechargeable type or not. For details, refer to page 55.
Checking the power status on the
display
Power source on the display
You can confirm the power source at the left corner of
the display.
When is shown, the power is supplied from the
AC power adaptor. When is shown, the power is
supplied from the batteries. When the AC power adap-
tor is connected with the batteries installed, the power
is supplied from the AC power adaptor and the
indication is shown.
Remaining battery power indication
You can confirm the approximate amount of remain-
ing battery power at the top left of the display.
• When using Ni-MH batteries, follow the instructions that
came with the batteries. Use only the specified charger
device when charging.
• Connecting or disconnecting the power adaptor with bat-
teries installed may turn the power off, resulting in loss of
data being recorded or transferred at the time.
• This instrument cannot charge the batteries. Use only the
specified charger device when charging.
• Power will be automatically drawn from the AC adaptor if an
AC adaptor is connected while batteries are installed in the
instrument.
• Failure to set the Battery Type may shorten the amount of
the battery life. Make sure to set the Battery Type correctly.
Indicates that the power will be turned off
immediately. When rechargeable batteries are
used, this icon flashes before the power is
turned off.
Indicates that remaining power is insufficient
for operation. Before the power runs out,
replace all the batteries with new ones, or fully
recharged ones (when using rechargeable
types). Note that the instrument may not work
properly, including unusually soft volume and
poor sound quality when remaining power
becomes low.
Indicates that the remaining power is suffi-
cient.

Connecting Headphones or
External Audio Equipment
Any pair of stereo headphones with a 1/4” stereo
phone plug can be plugged in here for convenient
monitoring. The speakers are automatically shut off
when a plug is inserted into this jack.
The [PHONES/OUTPUT] jack also functions as an
external output. You can connect the [PHONES/OUT-
PUT] jack to a computer, keyboard amplifier, stereo
system, mixer, tape recorder, or other line-level audio
device to send the instrument’s output signal to that
device.
Connecting a Footswitch to the
[SUSTAIN] jack
You can produce a natural sustain as you play by
pressing an optional Footswitch plugged into the
[SUSTAIN] jack. Make sure that the footswitch plug
is properly connected to the [SUSTAIN] jack before
turning on the power.
Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long
period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level,
since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experi-
ence any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a phy-
sician.
• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic com-
ponents, set all volume levels to the minimum, then turn
off the power for all components.
• When the instrument’s sound is output to an external
device, first turn on the power to the instrument, then to
the external device. Reverse this order when you turn the
power off.
• The sustain function does not affect split voices (page 18).
• Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing
this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, result-
ing in reversed footswitch operation.

Parameters Assigned to the Knobs
This section describes each of the parameters which can be assigned to the Knobs (page 22).
z FILTER
Filter effects shape the sound by allowing only a spec-
ified range of frequencies to pass and/or by producing
a resonance peak at the filter’s “cutoff” frequency. Fil-
ter effects can be used to create a range of synthesizer-
like sounds.
Knob A: CUTOFF
Adjusts the filter’s cutoff frequency, and therefore the
brightness of the sound. Turning the Knob to the left
makes the sound more muffled or darker, while turn-
ing the Knob A to the right makes the sound brighter.
Knob B: RESONANCE
Adjusts the amount of Resonance applied at the fil-
ter’s cutoff frequency. Turning the Knob to the right
will increases the Resonance to emphasize the fre-
quencies at the cutoff frequency, and thus “strength-
ens” the perceived effect of the filter.
x EFFECT
Knob A: REVERB
Reproduces the acoustic ambience of a concert hall or
club. Turning the Knob to the right will increase the
Reverb depth.
Knob B: CHORUS
Produces a layered “multi-instrument” effect. Turning
the Knob to the right will increase the Chorus depth.
c EG (Envelope Generator)
Envelope Generator effects determine how the level of
the sound varies over time. You can make the attack
faster for a more percussive sound or slower for a vio-
lin-like sound, for example. Or you can lengthen or
shorten the sustain to best match the music you’re
playing.
Knob A: ATTACK
Adjusts the Attack Time (the amount of time it takes
the sound to reach maximum level when a key is
played). Turning the Knob to the right will increase
the Attack Time, thus slowing down the attack rate.
Knob B: RELEASE
Adjusts the Release Time (the amount of time it takes
for the sound to decay to silence after a key is
released). Turning the Knob to the right will increase
the Release Time, thus make a longer sustain.
v STYLE FILTER
Same as “ z FILTER.” These effects are applied only
to Style or Pattern playback.
b AUX IN
These knobs can be used when playing an external
audio device connected to the [AUX IN] jack of this
instrument.
Knob A: SUPPRESSOR PAN
Turn on the Melody Suppressor, then rotate this knob
to move the pan position to be cancelled.
Knob B: BALANCE
Adjusts the volume balance between the audio device
and this instrument. Turning the knob left will
decrease the volume of the audio device and increase
the volume of this instrument, and vice versa. Even if
an external audio device is not connected, rotating this
• These effects are applied only to the Main/Dual Voices played

knob will increase/decrease the volume of the Song/

n SPECIAL EFFECT
Knob A: ULTRA WIDE STEREO
Lets you play the keyboard with a spacious, dynamic
sound effect that gives you the sensation of hearing
the sound outside of the speakers. By changing the
wide effect type in the Function settings (page 53,
Function 038), you can enhance the stereo image in
different ways.
Knob B: RETRIGGER RATE
While holding down the button of the currently play-
ing Section, rotating this knob will change the Retrig-
ger Rate (the length of the part to be repeated).
Turning right will shorten the length, and vice versa.
The chart below lists some interesting ways to use the various effects that can be assigned to the knobs.
Some Ideas for Using the Knobs
Number/Effect Try This
z
FILTER
Select “140 Gemini” (a synth-lead type Voice) or “167 Noise.” (Refer to the
Voice List of the separate Data List). Turning Knobs A or B while playing
gives you the dynamic filter-sweep effects of an analog synthesizer.
x
EFFECT
Select the Voice “008 CP80.” Turn Knobs A and B all the way down to hear
the direct, unprocessed sound of the Voice. As you turn Knob B toward the
right, a Chorus effect with modulation is gradually applied to the sound. Turn-
ing Knob A to the right adds a Reverb effect that makes you sound like you
are playing in a concert hall.
c
EG
Select the Voice “170 RsAnPad.” Turning Knob A all the way down makes
the attack faster, and lets you hear the crisp, clear sound of the original Voice.
Turning Knob B all the way down shortens the amount of time for the sound
to decay to silence after a key is released. These knobs let you finely adjust
the Voice to create the appropriate sound for the particular song you’re play-
ing.
v
STYLE FILTER
Select the Style, “049 EuTrance”. Turn accompaniment on and start Style
playback (page 23). Set Knob B to about 3 o’clock, and Knob A to about 8
o’clock. The overall sound of the style should be a bit muffled, with the drums
emphasized for solid rhythmic impact.
b
AUX IN
Knob A: SUPPRES-
SOR PAN
Turn these knobs when playing back an external audio device such as iPhone,
iPod etc. by connecting it to the [AUX IN] jack of this instrument (page 29).
Turn Melody Suppressor on, then turn Knob A to adjust the pan position of
the melody sound of an external audio device to be cancelled (lowered).
When you can cancel (lower) the melody part, try playing the part yourself.
Turning Knob B adjusts the volume balance between an external audio device
and this instrument.
Knob B: BALANCE
n
SPECIAL
EFFECT
Knob A: ULTRA-
WIDE STEREO
This lets you create various sounds from simulated mono to wider stereo,
even when playing only a single Voice (Grand Piano, Octave Strings, etc.).
Knob B: RETRIG-
GER RATE
Select the Section C of the Pattern “001 FrenchDJ” and start Pattern playback.
Turn this knob to the right while holding down the Section button C, and you
can shorter the Retrigger rate like a DJ plays.

USB Flash Memory Operations
By connecting the USB flash memory device to the USB [TO DEVICE] terminal, you can
save the data created on this instrument, such as User Song and parameter settings.
The saved data can be recalled to this instrument again for the future use.
• It is recommended to use the Power Adaptor when executing USB flash memory operations, since battery power may
not be reliable enough to last through these crucial operations. When you try executing certain functions, the “Use
Adaptor” indication may appear and the selected function cannot be executed.
IMPORTANT
Precautions when using the USB [TO
DEVICE] terminal
This instrument features a built-in USB [TO DEVICE]
terminal. When connecting a USB device to the terminal,
be sure to handle the USB device with care. Follow the
important precautions below.
Compatible USB devices
USB flash memory
Other USB devices such as a computer keyboard or
mouse cannot be used. Although USB devices 1.1 to 3.0
can be used on this instrument, the amount of time for
saving to or loading from the USB device may differ
depending on the type of data or the status of the instru-
ment. The instrument does not necessarily support all
commercially available USB devices. Yamaha cannot
guarantee operation of USB devices that you purchase.
Before purchasing a USB device for use with this instru-
ment, please visit the following web page:
http://download.yamaha.com/
Connecting USB device
When connecting a USB device to the USB [TO
DEVICE] terminal, make sure that the connector on
the device is appropriate and that it is connected in the
proper direction.
Using USB Flash Memory
By connecting the instrument to a USB flash memory,
you can save data you’ve created to the connected device,
as well as read data from the connected device.
The number of USB flash memory to be used
Only one USB flash memory device can be connected to
the USB [TO DEVICE] terminal.
Formatting USB flash memory
You should format the USB storage device only with this
instrument (page 58). A USB flash memory formatted on
another device may not operate properly.
To protect your data (write-protect)
To prevent important data from being inadvertently
erased, apply the write-protect provided with each USB
flash memory. If you are saving data to the USB flash
memory, make sure to disable write-protect.
Turning off the instrument
When turning off the instrument, make sure that the
instrument is NOT accessing the USB flash memory by
playback/recording or file management (such as during
Save, Copy, Delete and Format operations). Failure to do
so may corrupt the USB flash memory and the data.
For more information about the handling of USB devices, refer
to the owner’s manual of the USB device.
The rating of the USB [TO DEVICE] terminal is a maximum of
5V/500mA. Do not connect USB devices having a rating above
this, since this can cause damage to the instrument itself.
Avoid connecting or disconnecting the USB device while
executing playback/recording and file management opera-
tions (such as Save, Copy, Delete and Format), or when
accessing the USB device. Failure to observe this may
result in “freezing” of the operation of the instrument or
corruption of the USB device and the data.
When connecting then disconnecting the USB device (and
vice versa), make sure to wait a few seconds between the
two operations.
When connecting a USB cable, make sure that the length is
less than 3 meters.
NOTE
NOTE
NOTE
Although CD-R/RW drives can be used to read data to the
instrument, they cannot be used for saving data.
The format operation overwrites any previously existing
data. Make sure that the USB flash memory you are format-
ting does not contain important data.

Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Cause and Solution
When the instrument is turned on or off, a popping
sound is temporarily produced.
This is normal and indicates that the instrument is receiving electri-
cal power.
When using a mobile phone, noise is produced
Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the instrument may pro-
duce interference. To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or use
it further away from the instrument
The instrument is automatically turned off even if no
operation is done.
This is normal. This occurs due to the Auto Power Off function
(page 15).
The volume is too soft.
The sound quality is poor.
The Style/Pattern/Song/Arpeggio stops unexpectedly or
will not play.
The recorded data of the song, etc. does not play cor-
rectly.
The LCD display suddenly goes dark, and all panel set-
tings are reset.
The batteries are low or dead. Replace all six batteries with com-
pletely new ones or completely recharged ones, or use the AC
power adaptor.
No sound is produced even when the keyboard is
played, or a Song, Style, or Pattern is being played back.
Check whether a set of headphones or an audio cable is con-
nected to the [PHONES/OUTPUT], or not. When such a connec-
tion is made, no sound is output from the speaker of this
instrument.
Check the on/off status of the Local Control (page 54). Normally,
set this parameter to ON.
The footswitch (for sustain) seems to produce the oppo-
site 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 foot-
switch plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turn-
ing on the power.
No sound is produced even when playing keys in the
right hand area of the keyboard, although chords played
in the left hand area are recognized.
Check whether or not the Dictionary function (page 49) is used.
When used, this is normal.
Not all of the Voices seem to sound, or the sound seems
to be cut off, when playing the keyboard, Arpeggio, Style
or Pattern or Song.
You have exceeded 32 simultaneous notes, which is the maximum
polyphony (the maximum amount of notes that can be played
simultaneously) of this instrument. If the Main, Dual, and Split
Voices are being used along with playback of Arpeggio, Style, Pat-
tern or Song, some notes/sounds may be omitted (or “stolen”).
The sound of the Voice changes from note to note.
This is normal. The tone generation method uses multiple record-
ings (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 keyboard performance and playback of Style/Pat-
tern/Song produces an unexpected or inappropriate
sound, and cannot be restored to the normal status.
Using the Knobs can produce dramatic changes in the sound, but
may also produce unexpected or undesired sounds. If you want to
restore the original, normal sound before being changed by the
Knobs, change the Voice, Style, Pattern or Song, or press the
[PORTABLE GRAND] button to reset the panel settings.
The Style, Pattern or Song does not start even when the
[START/STOP] button is pressed. The Arpeggio does
not start even when the note is pressed with the Arpeg-
gio turned on.
Check the on/off status of the External Clock (page 54). Normally,
set this parameter to OFF.
The volume of the Style, Pattern or Song is too low. Check the volume setting in the Functions (pages 47 and 51).
The chords played in the left hand area cannot be recog-
nized even when the ACMP is turned on.
Check the Split Point setting (page 47). Set this to the appropriate
value.
Style parts other than the Rhythm part produce no
sound.
Check the on/off status of the ACMP (page 23). Make sure to turn
ACMP on.
The Styles numbered 176 or 188–200 produce no
rhythm drum sound even when the [START/STOP] but-
ton is pressed.
This is normal. Style numbers 176 and 188–200 have no rhythm
parts, so no rhythm will play. When one of these Styles is selected,
turn ACMP on, then specify the chord in the left hand area to play
Style parts other than the Rhythm part.
The ACMP indicator does not appear on the display
when the [ACMP ON/OFF] button is pressed.
Check the on/off status of the [STYLE] lamp. When using a Style,
press the [STYLE] button to turn on the [STYLE] lamp.

Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble or modify the internal components in any way. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel. - When the batteries run out, or if the instrument is not to be used for a long time, remove the batteries from the instrument. - When using Ni-MH batteries, follow the instructions that came with the batteries. Use only the specified charger device when charging. • Keep batteries away from small children who might accidentally swallow them. Water warning • Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions, place on it any containers (such as vases, bottles or glasses) containing liquids which might spill into any openings. If any liquid such as water seeps into the instrument, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel. • Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands. • 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 immediately with water and consult a doctor. Battery fluid is corrosive and may possibly cause loss of sight or chemical burns. If you notice any abnormality • When one of the following problems occur, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the electric plug from the outlet. (If you are using batteries, remove all batteries from the instrument.) Then have the device inspected by Yamaha service personnel.

A burning item may fall over and cause a fire. - It emits unusual smells or smoke. - Some object has been dropped into the instrument. - There is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument. 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: Power supply/AC power adaptor Location • Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet. • When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it. • Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over. • Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent damage to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them. • Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms. DMI-5 4 PSR-E443 Owner’s Manual 1/2 • When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet. • Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument. • 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 rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors. Connections • 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. Handling caution • Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel or keyboard. This could cause physical injury to you or others, damage to the instrument or other property, or operational failure. • Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician. • 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. Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed. Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use. Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (display is off), electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet. Make sure to discard used batteries according to local regulations. NOTICE To avoid the possibility of malfunction/ damage to the product, damage to data, or damage to other property, follow the notices below.  Handling and Maintenance • Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise. When you use the instrument along with an application on your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, we recommend that you set “Airplane Mode” to “ON” on that device in order to avoid noise caused by communication. • Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration, damage to the internal components or unstable operation. (Verified operating temperature range: 5° – 40°C, or 41° – 104°F.) • Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard. • When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth.

PSR-E443 Owner’s Manual 11 Setting Up  Notice for the AC adaptor Power Requirements Setting Up Although the instrument 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 1 Make sure that the power of the instrument is off (display is blank, except for notation staff). Depending on your particular locale, the AC adaptor having a separable plug should be used. In this case, make sure to follow the explanations below for your safety. If the plug is accidentally removed from the AC adaptor Without touching the metallic section, slide the plug into place as shown below then push it in completely until you hear the click sound. WARNING • Use the specified adaptor (page 65) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument or overheating. Slide the plug as indicated. • This adaptor is for indoor use only. Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions, or use it to hold any containers (such as vases, bottles or glasses) containing liquids which might spill into any openings. 2 Connect the AC adaptor to the power supply jack. 3 Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet. CAUTION • When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet. 2 AC power adaptor 12 PSR-E443 Owner’s Manual 3 AC outlet The shape of the plug differs depending on locale. WARNING • Make sure to keep the plug attached to the AC adaptor. Using the plug alone can cause electric shock or fire. • Never touch the metallic section when attaching the plug. To avoid electric shock, short circuit or damage, also be careful that there is no dust between the AC adaptor and plug. Setting Up This instrument requires six “AA” size, Alkaline (LR6)/Manganese (R6) batteries, or rechargeable nickel-metal hydride batteries (rechargeable Ni-MH batteries). The Alkaline batteries or rechargeable NiMH batteries are recommended for this instrument, since other types may result in poorer battery performance. WARNING • When using Ni-MH batteries, follow the instructions that came with the batteries. Use only the specified charger device when charging. NOTE • This instrument cannot charge the batteries. Use only the specified charger device when charging. Setting Up Using Batteries • Power will be automatically drawn from the AC adaptor if an AC adaptor is connected while batteries are installed in the instrument.  Setting the battery type After installing the new batteries then turning the power on, make sure to set the Battery Type to Rechargeable type or not. For details, refer to page 55. NOTICE • Failure to set the Battery Type may shorten the amount of the battery life. Make sure to set the Battery Type correctly.  Installing the batteries 1 Make sure that the power of the instrument is off (display is blank, except for notation staff). 2 Open the battery compartment cover located on the instrument’s bottom panel.  Checking the power status on the display  Power source on the display You can confirm the power source at the left corner of the display. Only one of these is shown. 3 Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow the polarity markings on the inside of the compartment. GrandPno When is shown, the power is supplied from the AC power adaptor. When is shown, the power is supplied from the batteries. When the AC power adaptor is connected with the batteries installed, the power is supplied from the AC power adaptor and the indication is shown.  Remaining battery power indication You can confirm the approximate amount of remaining battery power at the top left of the display. 4 Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it locks firmly in place. Indicates that the power will be turned off immediately. When rechargeable batteries are used, this icon flashes before the power is turned off. NOTICE • Connecting or disconnecting the power adaptor with batteries installed may turn the power off, resulting in loss of data being recorded or transferred at the time. When battery power becomes too low for proper operation, the volume may be reduced, the sound may be distorted, and other problems may occur. When this happens, make sure to replace all batteries with new ones or already-recharged ones. Indicates that remaining power is insufficient for operation. Before the power runs out, replace all the batteries with new ones, or fully recharged ones (when using rechargeable types). Note that the instrument may not work properly, including unusually soft volume and poor sound quality when remaining power becomes low. Indicates that the remaining power is sufficient. PSR-E443 Owner’s Manual 13 Setting Up Setting Up Connecting Headphones or External Audio Equipment Any pair of stereo headphones with a 1/4” stereo phone plug can be plugged in here for convenient monitoring. The speakers are automatically shut off when a plug is inserted into this jack. The [PHONES/OUTPUT] jack also functions as an external output. You can connect the [PHONES/OUTPUT] jack to a computer, keyboard amplifier, stereo system, mixer, tape recorder, or other line-level audio device to send the instrument’s output signal to that device. CAUTION • Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician. • Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, set all volume levels to the minimum, then turn off the power for all components. NOTICE • When the instrument’s sound is output to an external device, first turn on the power to the instrument, then to the external device. Reverse this order when you turn the power off. 14 PSR-E443 Owner’s Manual Connecting a Footswitch to the [SUSTAIN] jack You can produce a natural sustain as you play by pressing an optional Footswitch plugged into the [SUSTAIN] jack. Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the [SUSTAIN] jack before turning on the power. NOTE • The sustain function does not affect split voices (page 18). • Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, resulting in reversed footswitch operation. Basic Operations Turn down the MASTER VOLUME control to “MIN” then press the [ ] (Standby/On) switch to turn on the power. While playing the keyboard, adjust the MASTER VOLUME control. To turn off the power, press the [ ] (Standby/On) switch again for a second. • When the instrument is not operated for a specified period of time while connected to an external device such as an amplifier, speaker or computer, make sure to follow the instructions in the Owner’s Manual to turn off the power to the instrument and the connected devices, in order to protect the devices from damage. If you do not want the power to turn off automatically when a device is connected, disable Auto Power Off. Setting Up Turning the Power On/Off Selecting Operations CAUTION • When using a power adaptor, even when the power is off, a small amount of electricity is still being consumed by the instrument. When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure to unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet. Auto Power Off Function To prevent unnecessary power consumption, this instrument features an Auto Power Off function that automatically turns the power off if the instrument is not operated for a specified period of time.

PSR-E443 Owner’s Manual Parameters Assigned to the Knobs This section describes each of the parameters which can be assigned to the Knobs (page 22). c FILTER Filter effects shape the sound by allowing only a specified range of frequencies to pass and/or by producing a resonance peak at the filter’s “cutoff” frequency. Filter effects can be used to create a range of synthesizerlike sounds. NOTE EG (Envelope Generator) Envelope Generator effects determine how the level of the sound varies over time. You can make the attack faster for a more percussive sound or slower for a violin-like sound, for example. Or you can lengthen or shorten the sustain to best match the music you’re playing. • These effects are applied only to the Main/Dual Voices played on the keyboard. Level • Filter effects can sometimes cause distortion in the bass frequencies.  Knob A: CUTOFF Adjusts the filter’s cutoff frequency, and therefore the brightness of the sound. Turning the Knob to the left makes the sound more muffled or darker, while turning the Knob A to the right makes the sound brighter. Level Cutoff Frequency Frequency Frequencies in this range are passed. Frequencies in this range are cut off.  Knob B: RESONANCE Adjusts the amount of Resonance applied at the filter’s cutoff frequency. Turning the Knob to the right will increases the Resonance to emphasize the frequencies at the cutoff frequency, and thus “strengthens” the perceived effect of the filter. Level Resonance Sustain Level ATTACK Key Played x EFFECT  Knob A: REVERB Reproduces the acoustic ambience of a concert hall or club. Turning the Knob to the right will increase the Reverb depth.  Knob B: CHORUS Produces a layered “multi-instrument” effect. Turning the Knob to the right will increase the Chorus depth. NOTE • These effects are applied only to the Main/Dual Voices played on the keyboard. RELEASE Time Key Released  Knob A: ATTACK Adjusts the Attack Time (the amount of time it takes the sound to reach maximum level when a key is played). Turning the Knob to the right will increase the Attack Time, thus slowing down the attack rate.  Knob B: RELEASE Adjusts the Release Time (the amount of time it takes for the sound to decay to silence after a key is released). Turning the Knob to the right will increase the Release Time, thus make a longer sustain. NOTE • These effects are applied only to the Main/Dual Voices played on the keyboard. v STYLE FILTER Same as “ z FILTER.” These effects are applied only to Style or Pattern playback. b Frequency DECAY Reference z AUX IN These knobs can be used when playing an external audio device connected to the [AUX IN] jack of this instrument.  Knob A: SUPPRESSOR PAN Turn on the Melody Suppressor, then rotate this knob to move the pan position to be cancelled.  Knob B: BALANCE Adjusts the volume balance between the audio device and this instrument. Turning the knob left will decrease the volume of the audio device and increase the volume of this instrument, and vice versa. Even if an external audio device is not connected, rotating this PSR-E443 Owner’s Manual 41 Parameters Assigned to the Knobs knob will increase/decrease the volume of the Song/ Style/Pattern playback sound, maintaining the keyboard performance volume. n SPECIAL EFFECT  Knob B: RETRIGGER RATE While holding down the button of the currently playing Section, rotating this knob will change the Retrigger Rate (the length of the part to be repeated). Turning right will shorten the length, and vice versa.  Knob A: ULTRA WIDE STEREO Lets you play the keyboard with a spacious, dynamic sound effect that gives you the sensation of hearing the sound outside of the speakers. By changing the wide effect type in the Function settings (page 53, Function 038), you can enhance the stereo image in different ways. The chart below lists some interesting ways to use the various effects that can be assigned to the knobs. Some Ideas for Using the Knobs Number/Effect z x Reference c v FILTER EFFECT Select the Voice “008 CP80.” Turn Knobs A and B all the way down to hear the direct, unprocessed sound of the Voice. As you turn Knob B toward the right, a Chorus effect with modulation is gradually applied to the sound. Turning Knob A to the right adds a Reverb effect that makes you sound like you are playing in a concert hall. EG Select the Voice “170 RsAnPad.” Turning Knob A all the way down makes the attack faster, and lets you hear the crisp, clear sound of the original Voice. Turning Knob B all the way down shortens the amount of time for the sound to decay to silence after a key is released. These knobs let you finely adjust the Voice to create the appropriate sound for the particular song you’re playing. STYLE FILTER Select the Style, “049 EuTrance”. Turn accompaniment on and start Style playback (page 23). Set Knob B to about 3 o’clock, and Knob A to about 8 o’clock. The overall sound of the style should be a bit muffled, with the drums emphasized for solid rhythmic impact. Knob A: SUPPRESSOR PAN b AUX IN Knob B: BALANCE n 42 Try This Select “140 Gemini” (a synth-lead type Voice) or “167 Noise.” (Refer to the Voice List of the separate Data List). Turning Knobs A or B while playing gives you the dynamic filter-sweep effects of an analog synthesizer. SPECIAL EFFECT Turn these knobs when playing back an external audio device such as iPhone, iPod etc. by connecting it to the [AUX IN] jack of this instrument (page 29). Turn Melody Suppressor on, then turn Knob A to adjust the pan position of the melody sound of an external audio device to be cancelled (lowered). When you can cancel (lower) the melody part, try playing the part yourself. Turning Knob B adjusts the volume balance between an external audio device and this instrument. Knob A: ULTRAWIDE STEREO This lets you create various sounds from simulated mono to wider stereo, even when playing only a single Voice (Grand Piano, Octave Strings, etc.). Knob B: RETRIGGER RATE Select the Section C of the Pattern “001 FrenchDJ” and start Pattern playback. Turn this knob to the right while holding down the Section button C, and you can shorter the Retrigger rate like a DJ plays. PSR-E443 Owner’s Manual Arpeggio Settings Synchronizing an Arpeggio to Song/Style/Pattern Playback—Arpeggio Quantize When you play the keyboard to trigger an Arpeggio (page 21) along with Song/Style/Pattern playback, you’ll need to play the notes with correct timing to keep the Arpeggio in synchronization with the other playback tracks. However, your actual timing may be slightly ahead of or behind the beat (or both). The “Arpeggio Quantize” function of this instrument will correct any slight imperfections in the timing (according to settings below), and then play back the Arpeggio appropriately.

PSR-E443 Owner’s Manual 63 Troubleshooting Appendix Problem Possible Cause and Solution When the instrument is turned on or off, a popping sound is temporarily produced. This is normal and indicates that the instrument is receiving electrical power. When using a mobile phone, noise is produced Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the instrument may produce interference. To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or use it further away from the instrument The instrument is automatically turned off even if no operation is done. This is normal. This occurs due to the Auto Power Off function (page 15). The volume is too soft. The sound quality is poor. The Style/Pattern/Song/Arpeggio stops unexpectedly or will not play. The recorded data of the song, etc. does not play correctly. The LCD display suddenly goes dark, and all panel settings are reset. The batteries are low or dead. Replace all six batteries with completely new ones or completely recharged ones, or use the AC power adaptor. No sound is produced even when the keyboard is played, or a Song, Style, or Pattern is being played back. Check whether a set of headphones or an audio cable is connected to the [PHONES/OUTPUT], or not. When such a connection is made, no sound is output from the speaker of this instrument. Check the on/off status of the Local Control (page 54). Normally, set this parameter to ON. Appendix 64 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. No sound is produced even when playing keys in the right hand area of the keyboard, although chords played in the left hand area are recognized. Check whether or not the Dictionary function (page 49) is used. When used, this is normal. Not all of the Voices seem to sound, or the sound seems to be cut off, when playing the keyboard, Arpeggio, Style or Pattern or Song. You have exceeded 32 simultaneous notes, which is the maximum polyphony (the maximum amount of notes that can be played simultaneously) of this instrument. If the Main, Dual, and Split Voices are being used along with playback of Arpeggio, Style, Pattern or Song, some notes/sounds may be omitted (or “stolen”). The sound of the Voice changes from note to note. This is normal. The 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 keyboard performance and playback of Style/Pattern/Song produces an unexpected or inappropriate sound, and cannot be restored to the normal status. Using the Knobs can produce dramatic changes in the sound, but may also produce unexpected or undesired sounds. If you want to restore the original, normal sound before being changed by the Knobs, change the Voice, Style, Pattern or Song, or press the [PORTABLE GRAND] button to reset the panel settings. The Style, Pattern or Song does not start even when the [START/STOP] button is pressed. The Arpeggio does not start even when the note is pressed with the Arpeggio turned on. Check the on/off status of the External Clock (page 54). Normally, set this parameter to OFF. The volume of the Style, Pattern or Song is too low. Check the volume setting in the Functions (pages 47 and 51). The chords played in the left hand area cannot be recognized even when the ACMP is turned on. Check the Split Point setting (page 47). Set this to the appropriate value. Style parts other than the Rhythm part produce no sound. Check the on/off status of the ACMP (page 23). Make sure to turn ACMP on. The Styles numbered 176 or 188–200 produce no rhythm drum sound even when the [START/STOP] button is pressed. This is normal. Style numbers 176 and 188–200 have no rhythm parts, so no rhythm will play. When one of these Styles is selected, turn ACMP on, then specify the chord in the left hand area to play Style parts other than the Rhythm part. The ACMP indicator does not appear on the display when the [ACMP ON/OFF] button is pressed. Check the on/off status of the [STYLE] lamp. When using a Style, press the [STYLE] button to turn on the [STYLE] lamp.
