2. To switch between the two types of displays. "Note
number assign to voice" or "Note number assign to
pitch", use numeric key 1 (Voice) or 2 (Pitch).
ACCENT 2 switches cursor between the two displayed
parameters.
a. Voice
To select voices and assigned notes, use the -1/NO and
+1/YES keys and DATA slider.
* The note range is from C-2 to G8 (= MIDI note number
0 to 127)
b. Pitch
To select MIDI channels and assign voices, use the -1/NO
and +1/YES keys and DATA slider.
* Pitch control of the assigned voices is possible over the
5-octave range from C1 to C6 (Center C = C4).
* Voices can only be assigned to channels that have been
set to "p" with Job #02. If a channel is OFF or set to "v",
the following display will appear, showing that assignment
is not possible.
To assign a voice to such a channel, first set it to "p" with
Job #02.
JOB #05: NOTE INITIALIZE

2 . Press +1/YES to restore the original note numbers.
JOB #06: PITCH BEND RANGE
FUNCTION
Sets the MIDI pitch bend range for each voice.
The RX7 is capable of receiving MIDI pitch bend messages,
allowing pitch bend control of all voices from external MIDI
equipment.
To enable pitch bend control of a voice, its pitch bend range
must be set to at least 01.
36
* The RX7 can not memorize this kind of MIDI pitch bend
data as a sequence data. This function is provided to en-
hance the RX7's usefulness as a MIDI sound source
controlled e.g. by a sequence recorder.
OPERATION
1. Select Job #06.
2. Using the -1/NO and +1/YES keys and DATA slider,
input the desired voice names and their Pitch Bend
Range. (Voices can also be selected by entering their
number directly with the numeric keys.)
Move the cursor between voice and Pitch Bend Parameter
with ACCENT 2.
0 to 12 (units: 1 semitone)
Range:
l
Setting this value to 02 means you can bend
the pitch over a range of one whole tone,
setting it to 12 gives you an octave of pitch
bend range.
JOB #07: DEVICE NUMBER
FUNCTION
Set the RX7 to receive/transmit System Ex-
clusive data on a specified MIDI channel.
When receiving or transmitting System Exclusive data (such
as bulk data) from/to other Yamaha equipment, the "device
number" (= MIDI channel number) must be the same on
both MIDI devices.
OPERATION
1 . Select Job #07.
Use the -1/NO and +1/YES keys or DATA slider to

equipment.
When you want the RX7 to receive bulk data from another
RX7, a Yamaha sequence recorder or other appropriate
device, the RX7 must send a request for bulk data trans-
mission to that device.
The device number (see Job #07) has to be the same on both
pieces of equipment.
