OPTICAL OUT B MADE IN JAPAN A range of options are available to give the RS7000 even greater music production capabilities. Recorded samples and samples loaded from memory card must be stored in the internal memory in order to be played.
Data that was digitally sampled from a CD or other source cannot be saved to a memory card or SCSI disk in WAV format, or transferred via the TWE wave editor as sample data. If you wish to save this data, you must save it in the RS7000’s own format.
Making connections with the power on may damage your amp or speakers. The RS7000 has no internal amplifier or speakers of its own. To monitor the sound of the RS7000, connect headphones, powered speakers, or other playback equipment as required.

Advanced Sampling and Editing Features In addition to directly loading sample data in a variety of popular formats, the RS7000 allows you to record your own sam- ples from CDs or any line-level or microphone source. Once your samples are recorded they can be trimmed, sliced, looped, and otherwise prepared for playback with the power and flexibility you’d expect from a stand-alone sampler.

Then there are jobs to automatically create glides, rolls, crescendos, and other subtleties that can make a huge difference to the musical mood. If you can image it, the RS7000 can probably do it. And when you want to really make detailed refinements, the EDIT mode gives you direct access to individual note and event parameters.
All you have to do is select a pattern track, select the phrase you want to assign to that track, then repeat for as many tracks as you need. Of course, you can record your own phrases for use in patterns, too. Phrases can use voices from the RS7000’s internal tone generator, or samples in the RS7000’s sample memory.
Page 31
An Alternative Track Selection Method When the [KEYBOARD] button indicator is out (press the [KEYBOARD] button if it is lit), the black keys on the RS7000 key- board can be used to directly select sections “A” through “J” — note the labels above the black keys.
Page 32
Select a Track Select the track you want to assign a phrase to via the RS7000 keyboard: Press the lower key (white or gray) corresponding to the desired track number (1 through 16) while holding the [TRACK SELECT] button. The keyboard LED corresponding to the currently active track will flash while the [TRACK SELECT] button is held.
Page 33
As in the PATTERN Play display, the number of the currently active track is highlighted. You can change tracks while the PATTERN Patch display is showing in the same way that you change tracks in the main PATTERN display: press the appropriate white or gray key on the RS7000 keyboard while holding the [TRACK SELECT] button. Press the [PLAY] Button Press the [PLAY] button.
Page 34
Select a Phrase for the First Track The preset RS7000 phrases are organized into categories. Take a look at the Phrase Category List on page 313 for a complete list of the phrase categories. To select a phrase you will need to specify both its category and number.
Page 35
SELECT Try Out the MUTE and SOLO Functions While we’re at it, let’s try out a couple of the RS7000’s convenient monitoring features: MUTE and SOLO. MUTE Tracks can be individually muted (turned off) for monitoring purposes … or for creative real-time playback control. To mute tracks press the [MUTE] button so that its indicator lights, then the lower (white and gray) keys on the keyboard will alternately mute and un-mute the corresponding tracks.
Page 36
Save the Pattern Since the RS7000 saves all pattern (and other) data in volatile RAM memory, the data will be lost as soon as the power is turned off. In order to keep patterns, phrases, songs, or samples you’ve created, you’ll need to save them to either a memory card or external SCSI disk before turning the power off.

Grid Groove With the RS7000 there are a surprising number of ways to modify your sound even after the tracks are recorded. The Grid Groove func- tion is one of these. Grid Groove lets you change the notes, timing, length, and velocity of individual beats in your pattern or song to fine-tune the “groove”.
Page 47
The Mixer As the name implies, the RS7000 mixer is much like a mixer you’d use for mixing regular sources. You’ll use it to select voices for individual tracks, adjust levels and pan, adjust equalization, and adjust effect send levels.
Master Effects As if the effects accessed via the mixer weren’t enough, Yamaha has added a versatile Master Effect stage which allows even further pro- cessing of the overall sound. Spend some time playing with the various effects provided to hear how they affect the pattern we’ve cre- ated.
Page 49
The four knobs above the display adjust the parameters listed directly below them. Other parameters are available in the MASTER sub mode (Page 111).

GM data, but do not fully conform to the GM standard. G Maximum Polyphony The RS7000 can play up to 62 notes simultaneously. If perfor- mance data which plays a greater number of notes is received some notes will be cut off. Be careful that the maximum polyph- ony is not exceeded, especially when using many notes with a slow decay or release time.
See the “Effect List” on Page 313 for details. Master EQ & Effects This block applies equalization and effects to the final stereo out- put signal. This block is ideal for “mastering” the overall RS7000 sound. 8 Effect types are provided.
