Use it for composing, arranging, practicing or making/playing demos
for your band.
Perform With It
Bring it with you to a gig — as long as there's a MIDI keyboard on
stage, you can use the high-quality sounds of MU15 in your perfor-
mance.
Multimedia
Since it's portable and compatible with General MIDI, the MU15 is a
natural for multimedia applications. Bring it with you to a presenta-
tion — since the computer interface is built-in to the MU15, it hooks
up instantly and easily to the computer's serial port without the need
for any other equipment.
Using With MIDI Keyboard
Use the MU15 as supplementary tone generator with your MIDI
keyboard and play the Voices of both instruments in a layer together.
Or, if your keyboard has the capability, program a "split" so that the
notes you play on the right side of the keyboard play only the Voices
of the MU15.
Using With Other MIDI Controllers
Even if you're not a keyboard player, you can still play the MU15 with
other types of MIDI controllers. For example, use a MIDI percussion
controller to play the drum and percussion sounds of the MU15.
Guitar controllers (such as the Yamaha G50) or wind controllers (such
as the Yamaha WX5) are also available for players of those instru-
ments.
Home Studio Setup
The MU15 integrates easily into any existing setup. If you have a
MIDI keyboard, computer and sequencing software, the MU15 with
its high-quality Voices and multi-timbral capabilities can expand your
home studio system.
