Using The S03 As A Multitimbral Tone Generator (Multi Edit) - Yamaha S03 Owner's Manual

3 You can now play Parts
in the Multi via the
keyboard.
If the MIDI receive channel parameter is the same for
any Parts, those Parts can be played in unison. Now
try selecting other Multis.
n To play a Voice from the keyboard, make sure that the
MIDI Receive Channel for that Voice's Part and the MIDI
Transmit Channel for the keyboard are both set to the
same value.

Using the S03 as a
Multitimbral Tone
Generator (Multi
Edit)
Multi mode lets you configure the S03 as a
multitimbral tone generator for use with computer-
based music software or external sequencers. If each
track in a song file uses a different MIDI channel, then
the Parts in a Multi can be each assigned to those MIDI
channels correspondingly. Therefore, you can play
back a song file on an external sequencer and have
different Voices playing on different tracks
simultaneously.
In the following example, we will create a Multi suited
to playing back a song file consisting of three Parts:
piano, bass and drums. The piano track is assigned to
MIDI channel 2, the bass track to channel 3, and the
drums to channel 10.
n You can use the included XGworks lite sequencer
software (see the attached Installation Guide) to play
multiple Parts on the S03. Before doing that, however,
make sure that all connections between the computer
and the S03 have been properly made (page 13).
