Utility Functions; System; Master - Yamaha FS1R Owner's Manual

The UTILITY mode provides access to a range of parameters that affect basic operation of the FS1R, and some
functions that contribute to system flexibility. Select the UTILITY mode menu by pressing the [UTILITY] button.
Four sub-modes are available:

SYSTEM

The SYSTEM sub-mode includes parameters that affect overall operation of the FS1R. Page 71.
The DUMPOUT function allows FS1R setup and system exclusive data to be transmitted to a second FS1R or an external MIDI
DUMPOUT
storage device via the MIDI OUT connector. Page 77.
INITIAL The Initialize function allows a range of data types to be independently restored to their default settings. Page 78.
A "demonstration" function demonstrates some of the FS1R voices and capabilities. The DEMO function is described in detail on
DEMO
page 20.
All UTILITY mode functions and parameters are accessed and edited in the same way as described for the EDIT
modes (page 28).
SYSTEM

Master

• 01: Tune
Master Tune
Settings: -64 (421.3) ... +63 (459.2)
This is the FS1R's master tuning control. A setting of "0" produces standard A3=440Hz tuning. The numbers in
parenthesis following the "-" or "+" numeric value are the corresponding frequency of A3 in Hertz.
• 02: Note Shift
Master Note Shift
Settings: -64 ... +63
Transposes the overall pitch of the FS1R in semitone increments. "-" settings shift the pitch downward from the
normal pitch ("0"), and "+" settings shift the pitch upward.
• 03: Vel Curve
Velocity Curve
Settings: thru, soft1, soft2, wide, hard
Sets the velocity response of the FS1R, determining how note velocity will affect dynamics. The "thru" setting
produces a linear response. A graphic representation of the selected curve appears at the bottom of the LCD.
• 04: BC Curve
Breath Control Curve
Settings: thru, 1, 2, 3
Specifies the breath response curve, determining how The FS1R will respond to breath control. The "thru" setting
produces a linear response. A graphic representation of the selected curve appears at the bottom of the LCD.
