Using The Knobs - Yamaha PSR-E423 Owner's Manual

Create Original Sounds

Using the Knobs

1
Select the voice you want to play on the keyboard.
For this example we want to use a synth-lead type voice, so select
"147 SquareLd" (Square-wave Lead).
2
Press the [ASSIGN] button as many times as neces-
sary to select "z FILTER" ("z" will appear in the
display).
Knob A can now be used to adjust the filter cutoff frequency, and
Knob B can be used to adjust the resonance.
3
Rotate Knob B to its maximum setting (all the way
to the right), then play with the right hand while
operating Knob A with the left hand.
Filter Filter
Cutoff Resonance
Rotating the knob to the right while the volume is set to a high level can
result in distortion. If this occurs, reduce the volume level.
If you select a different keyboard voice the knobs will be reset and the ideal
settings for the selected voice will be automatically recalled. In the same
v
way, if the " STYLE FILTER" effect is selected, the knobs will be reset if
a different style is selected. If you create an original setting you like, it might
be a good idea to save it in the instrument's Registration Memory (page 48)
so you can recall the same settings again at any time. You can also record
performances using original sounds you've created (page 43).
Changing the knob settings does not immediately change the sound. Newly
assigned effects will only change the sound when the knobs are first operated
after the new effect has been selected.
