Load The Pre-Programmed Voice Data - Yamaha VL-7 Owner's Manual

Getting Started

Load the Pre-programmed Voice Data

When initially shipped, the VL7 internal memory contains a set of voices programmed
to be used without the breath controller (the "NOBREATH:All" file, described below). Since
the breath controller is such an important expressive tool, and since some of the examples
given in this manual use the breath controller, we recommend that you load the
"FULLCNT1:All or FULLCNT2:All" file provided on the VL7 data disk. The voices in this
file are pre-programmed for use with the breath controller.
NOTES
in the VL7 internal memory, so if you have any important voices in memory make
sure it is safely saved to disk before loading the data — Feature Reference
manual, page 156.
About the VL7 Data Disk
The floppy disk supplied with the VL7 contains the following files:
001:NOBREATH:All
A complete set of 64 voices and system data in which the voices are
programmed to be played without a breath controller. This is the voice set
which is in the VL7 memory when the unit is initially shipped. The voices
can be controlled via keyboard initial and after-touch, and via the
modulation wheels.
002:FULLCNT1:All
A complete set of 64 voices and system data in which the voices are
programmed to allow maximum controller variation. The breath controller,
foot controller, and modulation wheels are required for voice control.
003:FULLCNT2:All
A second set of 64 voices and system data in which the voices are
programmed to allow maximum controller variation. The breath controller,
foot controller, and modulation wheels are required for voice control.
004:EXAMPLE:All
Some example voices which have been programmed so that some
major tone generator and controller characteristics are easy to understand.
