Data compatibility with other devices

V50 data is compatible with other Yamaha devices as
follows.
Voice data is compatible with the DX11, YS100,
YS200, B200, TQ5, DX21, DX100, TX81Z, and WT11.
However, when V50 data is transmitted to one of these
devices, functions not found on these devices will be
ignored. For example, if V50 voice data is transmitted
to a DX11, the V50 effect data will be ignored.
Sequence data saved to disk by the QX5FD can be
read by the V50 disk, and the V50 can also receive se-
quence data from the QX5FD via MIDI bulk dump.
However QX5FD data such as macro data and relative
tempo will be ignored by the V50.

By attaching a separately sold ADP2 adaptor, you will
be able to use the ROM or RAM cartridges for the
Yamaha DX11 in the V50 cartridge slot. A cartridge
connected in this way can be used to read data. However
it is not possible to store V50 data to a cartridge (i.e.,
save).
