"Keyboard Controls Songbook+" Method - Yamaha Tyros Series Manual

6 "Keyboard controls SongBook+" Method

Using this feature, selecting a registration on the keyboard triggers SongBook+ to open the
corresponding PDF file (to display the notes, chords, lyrics, etc.). This is done by including a
midi (song) file in the registration to identify the desired file.
The required MIDI files can be downloaded from the SongBook+ website using the link in
chapter 6.2.
As the MIDI control file doesn't contain any music notes, the content is automatically played
when selecting the registration (as long as the "QuickStart" feature of the keyboard is not
disabled). This means the PDF file in SongBook+ is automatically displayed when the
registration button is pressed.
If you also want to play a normal MIDI (song) file, you must embed the required midi
commands at the beginning of the file, using, for example, SongCreator directly on the
keyboard.
