Editing Master Compressor (Cmp) Parameters - Yamaha PSR-S670 Reference Manual

3
Use the Cursor buttons [][][E][F] to move the cursor to the GAIN row, then adjust
the GAIN level to boost or cut each of the eight bands.
Use the [2 ]–[6 ] buttons to adjust the level. Using the [7 ] (TOTAL GAIN ADJ.) button lets
you boost or cut all the eight bands at the same time.

If desired, adjust the Q (bandwidth) and the FREQ (center frequency) of each band.
To adjust the bandwidth (also called "Shape" or "Q"), use the Cursor buttons [][][E][F] to move the
cursor to the Q row, then use the [3 ]–[5 ] buttons. The higher the value of Q, the narrower the
band width.
To adjust the FREQ (center frequency), use the Cursor buttons [][][E][F] to move the cursor to the
FREQ row, then use the [2 ]–[6 ] buttons. The available FREQ range is different for each band.

Press the [8 ] (STORE 1/2) button to carry out the Store operation.
In the Character Entry window called up via this operation, enter the name, and then press the [8 ] (OK)
button to actually store your settings as a User Master EQ Type, which can be called up from the Type
display called up in step 1.

Editing Master Compressor (CMP) Parameters

Compressor is an effect commonly used to limit and compress the dynamics (softness/loudness) of an audio
signal. For signals that vary widely in dynamics, such as vocals and guitar parts, it "squeezes" the dynamic
range, effectively making soft sounds louder and loud sounds softer. When used with gain to boost the overall
level, this creates a more powerful, more consistently high-level sound.
This instrument features the Master Compressor applied to the entire sound of this instrument. Although the
preset Master Compressor settings are provided, you can create and save your original Master Compressor by
adjusting the related parameters.
NOTE Master Compressor cannot be applied to audio playback or the metronome sound.
