Changing The Volume - Yamaha S90 ES Owner's Manual

Changing the Volume

You can use the Control sliders to adjust relative volume settings in real time, by pressing the [VOLUME] button. This lets you
adjust independent volume settings of the Voice or Performance you play on the keyboard, or those of a Multi (page 70).

Precautions — Using Sliders in the Performance mode
In the Performance mode, the Control sliders are assigned according to the specific
Parts that are assigned in each Performance. Keep in mind that the Slider number may
not correspond to the same numbered Part.
For example, when using a Performance (as shown at right) in which two Parts (Part 1
and Part 4) are combined, the sliders are assigned as follows:
• Slider 1 controls the volume of Part 1.
• Slider 2 controls the volume of Part 4.
• Sliders 3 and 4 are not used.

The [MASTER VOLUME] slider adjusts the overall output level of the instrument. The Control sliders, on the other hand, adjust the MIDI volume value
for the corresponding element or part.
Edit Indicator
Moving the sliders directly changes the parameters of the Voice, Performance or Multi. When any of the parameters are
changed, the [E] (Edit) Indicator appears in the top left of the display. This indicates that the current Voice,
Performance, or Multi has been modified but not yet stored.
For details about the Edit indicator, see page 25.
