How To Enter Data - Yamaha SY99 Owner's Manual

To select a voice, adjust a parameter, or give a name to a newly created setting, you will need to enter
various types of data into the SY99. The -1/+1 keys, data entry slider, and data entry dial provide various
ways to enter data. Use the data entry method that is most appropriate for each situation, (page 30
explains how to use the numeric key pad.)

How
First, use the arrow keys
want to modify.
Next you will modify the value using one of the following; -1/+1 keys, data entry
wheel, data entry slider, or the numeric key pad. The method you use will
depend on how you want to modify the data.
If you want to decrease or increase the existing data value one step at a time,
use the -1/+1 keys. Each time you press the -1 or +1 key, the data will decrease
or increase one step. This method allows you to move in precise steps, but can
take a long time when you need to make a major change in the value.
Some parameters consist of a "off/on" setting, and sometimes you will be
asked to reply "no/yes" to a question (such as "Are you sure ?"). In such
cases, press -1 to turn something off or to answer "no", and press +1 to turn
something on or to answer "yes".
