Precautions —
Taking Care of Your PortaTone
Your new PortaTone is a fine musical instrument — and should be treated as such. Handle it with care and
common sense, and it will give you years of enjoyment.
Location ------------------------------------------------------------------
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or other sources of heat. Never leave it inside a car where it can get
very hot. Also avoid highly humid or dusty places.
Interference From Electromagnetic Fields------------------------
Do not use your PortaTone close to television sets, radios or similar equipment since this may cause
interference noise in the other appliance.
Handling ----------------------------------------------------------------
Protect your PortaTone from strong impact. Be careful not to drop it or place heavy objects on it.
Avoid applying excessive force to the controls and keys.
Always unplug cables by gripping the plug firmly, and not by pulling on the cable.
Turn Power Off When Making Connections --------------------
To avoid damage to the PortaTone or other equipment, turn off the power of all related equipment —
including the PortaTone — before connecting or disconnecting any cables.
When Not Using the PortaTone ------------------------------------
After use, always turn off the POWER switch. When not using your PortaTone for long periods, be sure
to remove the batteries to avoid damage through battery leakage. When using the PortaTone with an AC
adaptor, unplug the adaptor from the electrical outlet, if the instrument is not to be used for a long period
of time, or during electrical storms.
Cleaning------------------------------------------------------------------
Clean the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. To remove stubborn stains, use a slightly moistened cloth.
Never use alcohol, thinner, or other chemical solvents, since they will damage the finish. Also, do not
leave vinyl chloride material on the PortaTone for a long time, since it may adhere to the exterior.
Service and Modification --------------------------------------------
Your PortaTone contains no user-serviceable parts. Opening it or tampering with it in any way may
result in damage and even electrical shock. Refer all servicing to qualified Yamaha personnel.
• Yamaha is not responsible for damage caused by improper usage.
NOTE
Setting Up
This section contains information about setting up your PortaTone for playing. Make sure to read this section
carefully before using the instrument.
Power Requirements
Your PortaTone can run either on batteries (sold separately) or on normal household current by using the optional
Yamaha PA-3/3B Power Adaptor (or another adaptor specifically recommended by Yamaha).
Using an AC Power Adaptor
To connect your PortaTone to a wall socket, you will need the optionally available Yamaha PA-3/3B
Power Adaptor. Use of other AC adaptors could result in damage to the instrument, so be sure to ask for
the right kind. Plug the adaptor into a convenient wall outlet and its connector into the DC IN 10-12V
jack on the back of your PortaTone.
Using Batteries
Inserting Batteries
Turn the instrument upside-down and remove the battery compartment lid. Insert six 1.5-volt size “D”
batteries as shown in the illustration, 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 PortaTone may not
sound or function properly, or it may reset to the default status. As soon as this happens, replace them
with a complete set of six new batteries. 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
an extended period of time.
NOTE
DC IN 10-12V

PHONES/AUX OUT Jack
Using Headphones
For private practicing and playing without disturbing others, connect a set of stereo headphones to the
rear panel PHONES/AUX OUT 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 PortaTone is equipped with a built-in speaker system, you can also play it through an
external amplifier/speaker system. First, make sure the PortaTone 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/AUX OUT jack on the PortaTone.
SUSTAIN Jack
An optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitch can be connected to the rear panel SUSTAIN jack for sustain
control. The footswitch functions like the damper switch on a piano: press and hold to sustain the sound,
and release for normal decay.
For normal operation, turn the power off before connecting the footswitch, then turn the PortaTone on
without pressing the footswitch. Also, do not disconnect the switch while the power is on.
• Make sure to turn the power off before connecting or disconnecting the footswitch.
Music Stand
Insert the bottom edge of the included music stand into the slot located at the top rear of the PortaTone control panel.

Getting Started
Playing the Demo Songs
The PortaTone has sixteen various Demo Songs, specially recorded to showcase the dynamic sounds and
rhythms and give you an idea of what you can do with the instrument.

optimum level once you start playing.
3

keyboard with the Songs.

Playing Voices The Voice Mode
The PortaTone features a wealth of dynamic, realistic Voices — 100 Panel Voices, or 129 GM Voices (128
Voices + 1 Percussion Kit). (See pages 42, 43.) The Voice mode gives you many powerful and versatile
tools for playing and enhancing these Voices.
The Voice mode is actually divided into three separate modes: Main, Dual and Split. In the Main Voice mode (see
below), you can play a single Voice over the entire range of the keyboard. The Dual Voice mode (page 12) allows
you to “layer” two different Voices together for rich, complex sounds. The Split Voice mode (page 14) lets you set
up two different Voices for playing from separate sections of the keyboard. Moreover, a special Voice Effect
section (page 16 - 18) lets you enhance the sound of the Voice or Voices with Chorus, Harmony, Echo, and Reverb
effects.
Selecting and Playing a Voice Main Voice Mode
1
Select the Voice mode.
Press the VOICE button. (The VOICE indications appear in the display, indicating that the Voice
mode and Main Voice menu are selected.)
You can quickly select the first parameter in the Main Voice menu (Main Voice Volume) by pressing and holding
the VOICE button.
Selecting MAIN VOICE (or DUAL VOICE, SPLIT VOICE) with the Main Menu buttons does not change the selected
mode; the Style or Song mode is still active, but the appropriate Voice menu is called up.
2
Select the desired Voice number.
Use the numeric keypad. Available Voices are listed on the upper right of the panel.
You can either enter the Voice number directly with the number buttons, or step up and down
through the Voices by using the +/- buttons.
Using the number buttons
Be sure to enter a two-digit number, as is printed next to each Voice name on the panel. For
example, to select Voice 09, first press 0 on the numeric keypad, then 9.
For GM Voices, make sure to enter three-digit numbers.

Using the +/- buttons
Press the + button to select the next Voice, and press the - button to select the previous Voice.
Holding down either button continuously scrolls up or down through the numbers. The +/- buttons
have a wrap around feature. For example, pressing the + button from the last number returns to
Voice 01.
About Panel Voices and GM Voices
Keep in mind that the PortaTone has two separate sets of Voices: 100 Panel Voices and 129 GM
(General MIDI) Voices. The GM Voices can also be used for optimum playback of GM-
compatible song data. This means that any GM song data (played from a sequencer or other
MIDI device) will sound just as the composer or programmer intended.
To change between Panel and GM Voices, use the Sub Menu in the Main, Dual, or Split Voice
modes (see pages 11, 13, 15).
3
Play the selected Voice.
To change to another Voice, repeat step 2 above.
You can also play rhythm Styles in the Voice mode by simply pressing the START/STOP button. The Style last selected
from the Style mode will be played.
4
Change other settings for the Voice Volume, Octave,
Pan, etc. if you wish.
Whenever you select a Panel Voice for the Main Voice, the Sub Menu parameters for that Voice are
automatically set to values that best suit the Voice. This is the Voice Set function. (See page 19.)
However, you can change the Voice settings if you wish by using the Sub Menu. First, select the
desired Sub Menu parameter with the SUB MENU buttons. Then, use the numeric keypad or +/-
buttons to change the setting.

play various drum and percussion sounds from the keyboard. Symbols for the sounds are also printed
above the keyboard, conveniently indicating which sounds are played from which keys.
The corresponding MIDI note numbers for the notes are actually one octave lower. For example, the MIDI note
number for note
36 (C1) is note
24 (C0).
Playing Two Voices Dual Voice Mode

Voice being the Main Voice selected in the normal way (page 10), and the other a Dual Voice selected as described
below.

Playing Two Voices Split Voice Mode
In the Split Voice mode, you can assign two different Voices to opposite sections of the keyboard, and play one
Voice with your left hand while your right plays another. For example, you could play bass with the left hand and
play piano with the right. The right-hand (or upper) Voice is selected in the Main Voice mode, and the left-hand (or
lower) Voice is selected in the Split Voice mode, as described below.
1
Turn on the Split Voice mode.
Press the SPLIT button (in the KEYBOARD section) so that the Split Voice icon appears in the
display.
When you play the keyboard, both the currently selected Main and Split Voices will be heard.
2
Select the desired Split Voice and make other settings for the Voice, if
desired.
First, use the MAIN MENU buttons to select SPLIT VOICE in the display.
Next, select the desired Sub Menu parameter with the SUB MENU buttons. Then, use the numeric
keypad or +/- buttons to change the setting.
Dual Voice and Split Voice can be used together. You can have the Split Voice play in the lower section of the
keyboard and play the Main and Dual Voices together in the upper.

Description
This determines the Split (lower) Voice. Panel Voices
are from 01 - 00, and GM Voices are from 001 - 129.
(To change between Panel and GM Voices, use the
GM Voice parameter below.)
This determines the volume of the Split (lower) Voice,
letting you create the optimum blend with the Main
(upper) Voice.
This determines the octave range for the Split (lower)
Voice.
This determines the pan position of the Split (lower)
Voice in the stereo image.
This determines how much of the Split (lower) Voices
signal is sent to the Reverb effect. Higher values
result in a louder Reverb effect for the Split Voice.
This determines the Split Point i.e., the key that
separates the Split (lower) and Main (upper) Voices
when the Voice mode or Song mode is active.
(The Split Voice sounds up to and including the Split
Point key.) The default for Split Point 1 is 59 (B2).
Split Point 1 can also be set directly by pressing the
desired key while this parameter is selected.
This determines the Split Point i.e., the key that
separates the Split (lower) and Main (upper) Voices
when the Style mode is active. (The Split Voice
sounds up to and including the Split Point key.) The
default for Split Point 2 is 71 (B3). Split Point 2 can
also be set directly by pressing the desired key while
this parameter is selected.

from the Panel Voices (off), or from the GM Voices
(on). When GM Voice is on, the General MIDI icon
will appear at the left of the Voice number in the
display.
Other Voice Controls
Chorus
The Chorus effect lets you enhance the sound of a Voice with chorus modulation. This slightly detunes the Voice
with itself, creating a thicker and warmer sound.
Turn on the Chorus effect.
Press the DUAL/CHORUS button once or twice, or until the CHORUS icon appears in the display.
The Chorus effect can be applied to the Main Voice.
Harmony/Echo
Harmony and Echo are two separate effects that can be applied to a Voice. Harmony is used in conjunction with
the auto accompaniment features (page 20), and creates automatic harmonies (for notes played in the upper section
of the keyboard) to match the accompaniment chords. Echo produces delayed repeats of the sound for special
effects. Various settings for the two effects can be changed in the Sub Menus.
To use Harmony or Echo:
1
Turn on the Harmony/Echo effect.
Press the HARMONY/ECHO button. (The HARMONY icon appears in the display.)
When you play the keyboard, the currently selected Harmony or Echo effect will be heard.
