Main Features

Your Yamaha Electone is packed with many sophisticated functions. Yet it is amazingly easy to
use. The main features are described here so that you can quickly understand the capabilities of
your Electone.
Included among the main features are:
Astoundingly True-to-life Sounds

tone generation technologies, combined with authentic tone function, make
the EL-27 a truly expressive musical instrument.
Wide Range of Voice Controls and Effects
Electone voices can also be enhanced with a variety of voice controls and
effects, including octave settings, Touch Tone, Symphonic/Celesta, Vibrato,
Reverb, and Sustain. (See page 24.)
Dynamic Rhythm Patterns
The Rhythm section of the EL-27 features authentic drum and percussion
sounds, accompanied with convenient Accompaniment functions. (See
page 31.)
A Keyboard Percussion function is also provided for playing the realistic
percussion sounds from the Lower keyboard and Pedalboard. (See page

Wide Variety of Registration Menus
Your Electone also has convenient Registration Menus that allow you to
instantly change all settings for the entire instrument in real time, as you
play. (See page 10.)
Recording of Performances with the Music Disk Recorder
The Electone also features a Music Disk Recorder for recording your
performances. The recording is completely digital and is stored to disk,
which means that no matter how many times you play back the recording, it
will always sound exactly the same as the original performance. (See page
