Welcome to the MU15
Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Yamaha MU15 Tone Genera-
tor!
The MU15 an advanced, yet easy-to-use tone generator providing exceptionally
high-quality Voices, built-in effects, XG format and General MIDI (GM) compat-
ibility, plus direct connection to computer — all in a highly compact and
portable package.
With the built-in host computer interface and MIDI terminals, the MU15 is ideal
for any computer music system — from connection to a simple laptop to
integration in a complete MIDI studio. It even features a two-octave keyboard
(with adjustable ten-octave range), allowing you to play the internal Voices and
enter notes to a connected sequencer. Since it’s compatible with Yamaha’s
powerful XG format, it lets you faithfully and easily playback any XG or GM
song data.
The MU15 also features 16-Part multi-timbral capacity and full 32-note poly-
phony for playback of even very sophisticated, multi-part song data. Three
independent digital effect sections give you enormous versatility in “sweeten-
ing” the sound. What’s more, the MU15 provides a host of comprehensive
editing tools for getting just the sound you need.

English
GM System Level 1
“GM System Level 1” is a standard specification that
defines the arrangement of voices in a tone generator
and its MIDI functionality, ensuring that data can be
played back with substantially the same sounds on any
GM-compatible tone generator, regardless of its manu-
facturer or model.
Tone generators and song data that meet the “GM
System Level 1” bear this GM logo.
XG
“XG” is a tone generator format that expands the voice
arrangement of the “GM System Level 1” specification
to meet the ever-increasing demands of today’s com-
puter peripheral environment, providing richer expres-
sive power while maintaining upward compatibility of
data. “XG” greatly expands “GM System Level 1” by
defining the ways in which voices are expanded or
edited and the structure and type of effects.
When commercially available song data bearing the XG
logo is played back on a tone generator which bears the
XG logo, you will enjoy a full musical experience that
includes unlimited expansion voices and effect func-
tions.
Your MU15 package should include the items listed below. Make sure that you
have them all.

The MU15 — What It Is and What It Can Do
The MU15 — What It Is and
What It Can Do
What It Is...
The MU15 is a compact, highly portable and easy-to-use tone
generator. It features XG compatibility with a stunning variety of 480
XG Voices (including 128 GM Voices) and 11 Drum Voices (with
Drum and SFX kits).* The MU15 has 32-Voice polyphony and is 16-
Part multi-timbral. In other words, the MU15 has 16 different Parts,
each with its own Voice, so that up to 16 different Voices can be
sounded simultaneously.
With the built-in two-octave keyboard, you can play any of the Voices
directly from the MU15 itself. Or you can play them from a con-
nected MIDI keyboard. In addition, the MU15 also has a TO HOST
terminal for easy interfacing with a computer, allowing you to play
the Voices using your favorite music software. This is where the
advanced multi-timbral capabilities come in, letting you play up to 16
different Voices at the same time.
* The MU15 has a total of 676 different Voices. A separate
TG300B mode (page 43) features 579 Voices, some of which are
diiferent than the XG set.
What It Can Do...
Here are a few ideas on how you can use the MU15. The list below
is not comprehensive, but is meant to be a general guide to the
possibilities and provide a starting point or springboard for your own
creative ideas and explorations.
Carry It With You
If you have a laptop computer (and sequencing software), simply
connect the MU15, plug in some headphones and you’ve got a
complete music making system that’s ready to go wherever you go.
11
English
The MU15 — What It Is and What It Can Do
Use it for composing, arranging, practicing or making/playing demos
for your band.
Perform With It
Bring it with you to a gig — as long as there’s a MIDI keyboard on
stage, you can use the high-quality sounds of MU15 in your perfor-
mance.
Multimedia
Since it’s portable and compatible with General MIDI, the MU15 is a
natural for multimedia applications. Bring it with you to a presenta-
tion — since the computer interface is built-in to the MU15, it hooks
up instantly and easily to the computer’s serial port without the need
for any other equipment.
Using With MIDI Keyboard
Use the MU15 as supplementary tone generator with your MIDI
keyboard and play the Voices of both instruments in a layer together.
Or, if your keyboard has the capability, program a “split” so that the
notes you play on the right side of the keyboard play only the Voices
of the MU15.
Using With Other MIDI Controllers
Even if you’re not a keyboard player, you can still play the MU15 with
other types of MIDI controllers. For example, use a MIDI percussion
controller to play the drum and percussion sounds of the MU15.
Guitar controllers (such as the Yamaha G50) or wind controllers (such
as the Yamaha WX5) are also available for players of those instru-
ments.
Home Studio Setup
The MU15 integrates easily into any existing setup. If you have a
MIDI keyboard, computer and sequencing software, the MU15 with
its high-quality Voices and multi-timbral capabilities can expand your
home studio system.

About General MIDI (GM)
General MIDI (GM) is a new addition to the worldwide MIDI stan-
dard. MIDI, as you know, stands for Musical Instrument Digital
Interface, and makes it possible for various electronic musical
instruments and other devices to “communicate” with each other.
For example, by connecting a sequencer to the MU15’s MIDI IN
terminal, you could play back a song on the sequencer using the
Voices of the MU15.
So, where does GM fit in all of this? One of the most important
features of General MIDI is in the standardization of Voices. This
means that a song recorded in the GM standard can be played back
on any GM-compatible tone generator and sound just as the com-
poser intended. For example, if there is an alto sax solo in the song,
it will be played by an alto sax Voice on the General MIDI tone
generator (and not by a tuba or harpsichord!). Since the MU15 is
fully GM-compatible, you can take advantage of the vast wealth of
musical material recorded in that format.
About XG
The Yamaha XG format is an extension of General MIDI, and pro-
vides a number of significant improvements and enhancements. XG-
compatible song data takes advantage of the expanded Voice set,
extensive MIDI control and built-in effects of the MU15 (as well as
other MU-series instruments).
To get the most out of XG and your MU15, we recommend using
XG-compatible instruments and software. For example, the Yamaha
CBX-K2 keyboard lets you dynamically control a variety of param-
eters in real time while you play. The XGworks sequencer software
not only lets you playback GM- or XG-compatible song data, it lets
you record your own songs — and gives you enormously powerful
and easy-to-use editing tools for adjusting detailed settings of the
MU15 that are unavailable with the panel controls.

Guided Tour
Guided Tour
When using your MU15 for the first time, read
through this short section of the manual. It guides you
step-by-step in using many of the basic operations: setting
the instrument up, connecting it properly to other equip-
ment, and — most importantly — playing it. It also intro-
duces you to most of the other, advanced features and
operations of the instrument — enabling you to quickly
and effectively get the most out of your new MU15.
Setting Up Your MU15
Since the MU15 has a built-in keyboard, you could use it with nothing more
than a set of batteries and a proper set of stereo headphones. It can also be
used effectively with a computer in a “desktop music” system.
In this section, however, you’ll learn how to connect the MU15 in a basic
system with a MIDI keyboard and an external amplifier/speaker system. (For
basic information on MIDI and its applications, see page 91.)
What You’ll Need
The MU15 and a proper power supply (either an AC adaptor or
batteries).
A MIDI keyboard, electronic piano, or any instrument that can
output MIDI data.
An amplifier speaker system, preferably stereo. Alternately, you
can use a set of stereo headphones.
Audio connecting cables.
A MIDI cable.
18
Using a Power Adaptor
Connect one end of the power adaptor (Yamaha PA-3B) to the DC IN
jack on the rear panel, and the other end to a suitable electrical
outlet.
WARNING
Do not attempt to use an AC adaptor other than the PA-3B. The use of
an incompatible adaptor may result in irreparable damage to the MU15,
and even pose a serious shock hazard.
CAUTION
When connecting the AC power adaptor, first make sure that the MU15
is turned off (set to STANDBY). Next, connect one end of the power
adaptor to the DC IN jack on the MU15, and connect the other end to
an appropriate AC outlet.
The MU15 has a convenient data backup feature that maintains any
changes you’ve made to the settings, even when the power is turned
off. However, removing the batteries or disconnecting the AC adaptor
automatically clears the data and restores the factory defaults. To save
your important data, use the Dump Out function (page 65).
Power Supply
Although the MU15 will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries,
Yamaha recommends use of an AC adaptor whenever possible. Moreover, an
AC adaptor is more environmentally friendly than batteries and does not
deplete resources.
CAUTION
Before making any connections, make sure that all equipment to be connected is
turned off.
Setting Up Your MU15
19
English
Using Batteries
To use the MU15 on battery power, insert six 1.5V AA size (SUM-3,
R-6 or equivalent) manganese or alkaline batteries in the battery
compartment. Make sure to follow the polarity indications on the
bottom case (and as shown below).
Securely replace the battery compartment cover when done install-
ing the batteries.
When to Replace the Batteries
When the battery power runs too low to operate the MU15, the
sound may become distorted and the following display will appear:
When this happens, replace all batteries with a complete set of six
new batteries of the same type.
CAUTION
NEVER mix old and new batteries or different types of batteries! Also,
to prevent possible damage due to battery leakage, remove the
batteries from the instrument if it is not to be used for an extended
period of time.
