Precautions

— Taking Care

Your PortaTone

Your new PortaTone is a fine musical instrument — and should be treated as such. Handle it with care and

common sense, and it will give you years of enjoyment.

Location

Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or other sources

of heat. Never leave it inside a car where it can get

very hot. Also avoid highly humid or dusty places.

Interference From Electromagnetic Fields

Do not use your PortaTone close to television sets,

radios or similar equipment since this may cause

interference noise in the other appliance.

Cleaning

Clean the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. To

remove stubborn stains, use a slightly moistened

cloth.

Never use alcohol, thinner, or other chemical

solvents, since they will damage the finish. Also,

do not leave vinyl chloride material on the PortaTone

for a long time, since it may adhere to the exterior.

Handling

Protect your PortaTone from strong impact. Be

careful not to drop it or place heavy objects on it.

Avoid applying excessive force to the controls and

keys.

NOTE

Yamaha is not responsible for damage caused by improper

usage.

When Not Using the PortaTone

After use, always turn off the POWER switch. When

not using your PortaTone for long periods, be sure

to remove the batteries to avoid damage through

battery leakage.

Getting Started

Power Requirments

Your PortaTone can run either on batteries (sold

separately) or on normal household current by using

the optional Yamaha PA-3/4/40 Power Adaptor.

Using an AC Power Adaptor

To connect your PortaTone to a wall socket, you will

need the optionally available Yamaha PA-3/4/40

Power Adaptor. Use of other AC adaptors could

result in damage to the instrument, so be sure to ask

for the right kind. Plug the adaptor into a convenient

wall outlet and its connector into the DC 10-12V IN

jack on the back of your PortaTone.

PSR-185

Using Batteries

Inserting Batteries

Turn the instrument upside-down and remove the

battery compartment lid. Insert six 1.5-volt size

“D” batteries as shown in the illustration, making

sure that the positive and negative terminals are

properly aligned. Replace the lid.

PSR-77

Connecting a Keyboard Amplifier

or Stereo System

When the Batteries Run Down

When the batteries run low and the battery voltage

drops below a certain level, the PortaTone may not

sound or function properly. As soon as this happens,

replace them with a complete set of six new batter-

ies.

Never mix old and new or different types of

batteries (e.g., alkaline and manganese).

Auto Power OFF

The PSR-185/77 features an Auto Power OFF func-

tion that automatically turns the power OFF if the

instrument is not used for approximately 30 minutes.

This functions whether batteries or the AC power

adaptor is used.

Accessory Jacks

Using Headphones

For private practicing and playing without disturbing

others, connect a set of stereo headphones to the rear

panel HEADPHONES/AUX OUT jack. Sound from the

built-in speaker system is automatically cut off when

you insert a headphone plug into this jack.

After making sure the PortaTone and any external

devices are turned off, connect one end of a stereo

audio cable to the LINE IN or AUX. IN jack(s) of the

other device and the other end to the HEADPHONES/

AUX OUT jack of the PortaTone.

The Music Stand

Insert the bottom edge of the music stand into the slot

located at the top rear of the PSR-185/77 control

panel.

Playing Your New PortaTone

This section briefly shows you how to use the various controls on the panel of the PortaTone.

Turning on the Power

Press the POWER ON/OFF

button

to turn on the

power of the PortaTone. Whenever the power is

turned on, Voice 01 (PIANO) is automatically selected.

Selecting a Mode

Playing a Song

in the Song Mode

A variety of Songs and special Jam Tracks have been

recorded to your PortaTone to give you a taste of

what you can do with the instrument, and to provide

music and patterns for you to play along with.

Your PortaTone has three different operating modes:

Voice, Style and Song —

each selected from the corre-

sponding panel buttons. VOICE lets you select and

play a Voice. STYLE lets you select and play a

setting that includes a rhythm/accompaniment pat-

tern. SONG lets you select and play either a Song

or a Jam Track pattern.

To select one of the modes:

Press the button corresponding to the desired mode.

For now, press SONG to select the Song mode.

To select and play one of the Songs:

With the Song mode selected, use the Numeric

Keypad to enter the desired Song or Jam

Track number. Be sure to enter a two-digit

number, as is printed next to each song on the

panel. For example, to select Song 09, first

press ‘0” on the Numeric Keypad, then “9.”

You can also use the +/- buttons on the Numeric

Keypad to step up or down through the preset

numbers; holding down the appropriate button

continuously changes the number. Note that the

+/- buttons have a “wrap around” feature. For

example, pressing the + button from the last

number returns to Song 01. (Song 01 is also

automatically selected when you turn the power

on.)

To play the selected Song, press the START/STOP

button

Note that the dots in the MULTI DISPLAY

flash

in time with the music. The left dot flashes at the

first beat of every measure, and the right dot

flashes at the other beats. (For more information

on the MULTI DISPLAY, see box at right.)

Adjust the volume of the Song by using the

VOLUME control

Although the Song is automatically set to play at a

default tempo, you can change the speed of the

Song by using the TEMPO buttons

Press

TEMPO + to increase the speed and TEMPO - to

decrease it; holding down the appropriate button

continuously increases/decreases the speed.

(Note that the tempo value is briefly shown in the

MULTI DISPLAY.)

if you want to set the tempo back to its original

default setting, press both TEMPO buttons simul-

taneously. (For more information on the Tempo

functions, see box at right.)

To stop the Song, press the START/STOP button

again.

NOTE

You should enter numbers on the Numeric Keypad relatively

quickly, If YOU do not enter the second digit of a number

within about ten seconds after entering the first digit, the

first digit will be carcelled. Entry of a first digit is also

automatically cancelled if any other button on the panel

(except for those on the Numeric Keypad) is pressed before

entering the second digit. Also, keep in mind that entry of

numbers higher than 40 in the Song mode are ignored.

About the MULTl DISPLAY

As mentioned above, the dots in the MULTI DIS-

PLAY flash in time with the rhythm, and the indi-

cation is used when a Song or Style plays back.

This flashing provides a visual indication of both

the tempo and the time signature of the rhythm.

For Songs and Styles in 4/4 time, the dots flash

like this:

For Songs and Styles in 3/4 time, the dots flash

like this:

About the Tempo Functions

Tempo Values

As mentioned above, the tempo value is shown

briefly in the MULTI DISPLAY when one of the

TEMPO buttons is pressed. The displayed tempo

range is from 10 to 60; in actual tempo values, the

range is from 40 to 240 beats per minute. (Each

step in the tempo adjustment corresponds to 4

beats per minute.)

Default Tempos

Each Song and Style has been given a default or

standard tempo. If you change the tempo, you can

set it back to the original default setting, by press-

ing both TEMPO buttons simultaneously. Also, the

tempo of a Song or Style returns to the default

setting when selecting a different Song or Style.

(The set tempo remains, however, when switching

Styles during playback.) When you turn on the power

of the PortaTone, the tempo is automatically set to the

default setting of Style 01.

Voice Mode

The Voice mode features 100 authentic Voices.

Many of these Voices have special preset character-

istics or embellishments. The Voices are divided into

various categories depending on their characteris-

tics or the effects used.

Dual Voices (#41 - X56) feature two Voices mixed

together in a layer for rich ensemble sounds. Split

Voices (#57 - #67) also have two Voices, but rather

than being layered, each is played from a different

range of the keyboard. Sustain Voices (#66 - #72)

extend the sound by adding a natural, slow release.

Harmony Voices (#73 - #85) have an additional one-,

two- or three-note harmony added to the original

monophonic Voice. Finally, Echo Voices (#86 - #00)

have an echo effect that adds delayed repeats to the

original Voice.

Included in the Voices are special PERCUSSION

Voices (#40 and #00 that lets you play various drum

and percussion sounds from the keyboard. (Refer to

the Percussion Assign list page 11.)

NOTE

Selecting a Voice

Press the VOICE button to select the Voice mode.

Use the Numeric Keypad to select the desired

Voice number.

Each Voice is automatically called up with the

most suitable octave range setting. Thus, playing

middle C with one Voice may sound higher or

lower than another Voice at the same key.

Play the newly selected Voice. To change to

another Voice, repeat step 2 above.

You can also play rhythm Styles in the Voice mode

by simply pressing the START/STOP button. The

Style last selected from the Style mode will be

played.

About the Harmony Voices

Since Harmony Voices are designed to automati-

cally play two or more notes with the notes you

play on the keyboard, only one note can be played

on the keyboard at a time. If several notes are

played together, only the last note or highest note

played will be heard.

The type of harmony used depends on the Voice

that is selected. When a Style or Song/Jam Track

is not being played back, the basic key for the

harmony is always C. When a Style is played or

the Stopped Accompaniment function is active, the

harmony changes according to the chord played

with the left hand. When a Song is played back, the

harmony changes according to the chord progres-

sion of the Song or Jam Track.

The PortaTone is polyphonic up to a maximum of 12 notes.

(Depending on the Voice selected, fewer notes may be

available.) This includes not only the Voices played from the

keyboard, but also the notes in a style pattern, and so on.

Thus, if you play too many notes at one time, some may not

sound and/or others may be cancelled.

Style Mode

The Style mode provides dynamic rhythm/accom-

paniment patterns — as well as Voice settings appro-

priate for each pattern — for various popular music

styles, as listed on the panel. A total of 100 different

Styles are available, and are divided into ten differ-

ent categoties. Each rhythm pattern also has a spe-

cially created companion Fill In pattern, which can be

played by using the SYNC-START/FILL IN button.

Auto Accompaniment features built into the

rhythms add the excitement of instrumental back-

ing to your performance, letting you control the

accompaniment by the chords you play. Auto

Accompaniment effectively splits the keyboard into

two sections: The upper is used for playing a melody

line, and the lower (labeled "AUTO ACCOMP. SECTION”

on the keyboard, including keys C1 through F2) is for

the Auto Accompaniment function.

NOTE

Selecting a Style

Press the STYLE button to select the Style mode.

Use the Numeric Keypad to select the desired

Style number.

You can start the selected rhythm by pressing the

START/STOP button.

The PortaTone also has a Synchro Start function

that allows you to start the rhythm by simply

pressing a key on the keyboard. To use Synchro

Start, first press the SYNC-START/FILL IN

button, then press one of the keys in the AUTO

ACCOMP. SECTION.

With the rhythm running, you’re ready to try out

the Auto Accompaniment feature. Try playing a

few single notes with your left hand, and notice

how the bass and chord accompaniment change

with each key you play. (Refer to the boxed

sections on pages 7 and 8 for more information on

how to use Auto Accompaniment.)

Use the TEMPO buttons to change the tempo of the

Style as it’s playing. (For more information on

the Tempo functions, see page 4.)

While the Style is playing, you can add variation

to the rhythm by playing special Fill In patterns.

To play a Fill In pattern, press the SYNC-START/

FILL IN button.

The Fill In pattern may not play precisely when you press the

SYNC-START/FILL IN button, but instead starts on the beat

immediately following your press of the button. Also,

depending on when you press the button, only a portion of

the Fill In might be played. Both of these situations are

normal and are done to ensure that the Fill In pattern comple-

ments the basic rhvthm, rather than disrupting it.

To stop the rhythm, press the START/STOP

button again.

Pressing the START/STOP button while the

rhythm is playing produces a simple ending

phrase. This also applies to playing Jam Track

patterns in the Song mode.

NOTE

Synchro Start is automatically set to stand-by when you

select the Style mode. (The dots in the MULTI DISPLAY flash

to indicate stand-by status.)

Using the Auto Accompaniment

Function/Multi Fingering

The Auto Accompaniment function automatically gener-

ates bass and chord accompaniment for you to play along

with, by using Multi Fingering operation. You can change

the chords of the accompaniment by playing keys in the

AUTO ACCOMP. SECTION of the keyboard using either the

“Single Finger” or “Fingered” method. With Single

Finger you can simply play a one-, two- or three-finger

chord indication (see Single Finger Chords below). The

Fingered technique is that of conventionally playing all the

notes of the chord. Whichever method you use, the

PortaTone “understands” what chord you indicate and

then automatically generates the accompaniment

Press the root of the chord.

NOTE

Chords played in the AUTO ACCOMP. SECTION of the key-

board are also detected and played when the accompaniment

is stopped (Stopped Accompaniment function). In this

condition, the Voices used for the bass and chords are

automatically selected.

NOTE

To use the Minus One function with one of the styles, press

the MINUS ONE button. (The LED next to the button lights.)

Minus One cancels all chord accompaniment, leaving only the

bass and basic rhythm of the Style.

Setting Auto Accompuniment to Single

Finger or Fingered

Though detection of the Single Finger and Fingered

methods is automatic, you can set Auto Accompa-

niment to function exclusively in either the Single

Finger or Fingered mode.

To set Auto Accompaniment to Single Finger, turn

the power off, then hold down the “-” button on the

Numeric Keypad and simultaneously turn the power

on. "SF" (Single Finger) briefly appears in the MULTI

DISPLAY.

NOTE

In Single Finger, the AUTO ACCOMP. SECTION is set between

the C1 key (the lowest key) and the C

2 key.

To set Auto Accompaniment to Fingered, follow the

same steps, holding down the “+” button instead.

“F” (Fingered) briefly appears in the MULTI

DISPLAY.

To switch back to Multi Fingering operation, simply

turn the power off and on again.

Single Finger Chords

Chords that can be produced in Single Finger opera-

tion are major, minor, seventh and minor seventh.

The illustration below shows how to produce the

four chord types. (The key of C is used here as an

example; other keys follow the same rules. For

example, B7 is played as B and A.)

Press the root note together with

any white key to the left of it.

Pess the root note together with

any black key to the left of it.

Press the root note together with

any white and black key to the

left of it (three keys altogether).

Fingered Chords

Using the key of C as an example, the chart below shows the types of chords that can be recognized in the

Fingered mode.

Fingered Chords in the Key of C

Notes enclosed in parentheses are optional; the chords will be recognized without them.

NOTE

If the chord is inverted (i.e., C-E-G is played as G-C-E) the PortaTone will still recognize it as a C chord.

Minor 6th chords are recognized only in root position, however; all other inversions are interpreted as minor 7th/flatted 5th.

If augmented and diminished 7th chords are inverted, the lowest note will be recognized as the root.

7th flatted 5th chords may be played with the lowest note as the root or the 7th.

9th chords are recognized only in root position; all other inversions are interpreted as suspended 4th.

Augmented 7th and diminished 7th chords are interpreted as simple augmented and diminished.

The PortaTone also has a Chord Cancel function to stop the chord accompaniment but allow the rhythm pattern to continue playing.

To use Chord Cancel, simultaneously press any three consecutive notes in the AUTO ACCOMP. SECTION; for example, C, C

and D.

One Touch Setting in the Style Mode

The One Touch Setting function automatically

selects an appropriate Voice for playing with the

Style you select. In other words, when One Touch

Setting is on, the Voice automatically changes

when you change the Style.

To turn on the One Touch Setting function, press

the ONE TOUCH SETTING button. (The LED next to

the button lights.)

To turn the function off, press the button again.

NOTE

When the One Touch Setting is on, selecting another Style

will automatically reset the tempo to the default of the

selected Style.

Song Mode

The Song mode features special Songs and Jam

Track patterns that have been created using the rich

sounds and sophisticated accompaniment functions

of the PortaTone.

The Songs are generally for your listening enjoy-

ment; however, you can also play along with them

on the keyboard. Also, by using the Minus One

function, you can "mute” the original melody and

play it manually on the keyboard yourself. The Jam

Track patterns in this mode let you “jam” or play

along with a variety of dynamic rhythm styles and

chord changes.

Selecting and Playing a Song

or Jam Track Pattern

Press the SONG button to select the Song mode.

Use the Numeric Keypad to select the desired Song

or Jam Track number.

Start the selected Song or Jam Track by pressing

the START/STOP button.

You can also start the selected Song or Jam Track

pattern with the Synchro Start function (as in the

Style mode) by simply pressing any key of the

keyboard.

If you want to change to another Song or Jam

Track pattern, repeat step 2 above.

To stop the Song or pattern, press the START/

STOP button again.

if playback is not stopped, all Songs play back repeat-

edly in succession, indefinitely. (However, if Minus One

is on, only the selected Song repeatedly plays back.) If

a Jam Track pattern is selected, only the selected

pattern repeats indefinitely.

About the Minus One Function

Minus One, as its name implies, takes away the

melody part of the Song, allowing you to play that

part yourself. You can turn Minus One on before

starting a Song, or do it even while a Song is

playing. To help you play the “missing” melody,

scores for all Songs have been provided; see pages

13-22.

To use the Minus One function with the selected

Song, press the MINUS ONE button (either before

starting the Song or while it is playing). (The LED

next to the button lights.)

One Touch Setting in the Song Mode

The One Touch Setting function works with the Minus

One function and automatically selects an appropriate

Voice for playing the melody along with the Song you

select. Though the Minus One function is not used

with the Jam Track patterns, One Touch Setting works

the same way with Jam Track, automatically selecting

an appropriate Voice.

To turn on the One Touch Setting function, press

the ONE TOUCH SETTING button. (The LED next to the

button lights.)

To turn the function off, press the button again.

NOTE

Keep in mind that even with the One Touch Setting function on,

there are some Songs and Jam Track patterns which change the

selected Voice in the middle of the Song or pattern.

Sound Effect and Drum Pads (PSR-185)

The Sound Effect and Drum Pads let you play se-

lected drum and percussion sounds, as well as

special sound effects, from the four Pads directly

above the right side of the keyboard.

The Pads can be played in any of the modes. You can

play them alone (for example, to try out your own

rhythms), or play them along with the Styles, Songs

and Jam Track patterns. Eight banks of sounds (four

in each bank) are available. There are 16 Sound

Effect sounds and 16 Drum sounds, and each sound is

shown graphically on the panel.

Use the button corresponding to the desired set of

sounds to change the bank. Press the button repeat-

edly to step through the banks. The selected bank

number briefly appears in the MULTI DISPLAY. For

example, to select bank 3, press the button next to

SOUND EFFECT repeatedly until “3” appears in the

MULTI DISPLAY.

NOTE

Up to two Pads can be played simultaneously. Three or more

Pads can be played successively; however, the limit on total

simultaneous notes may result in cancellation of some sounds

or notes played in the Voice, Style or Song mode. (Refer to

the note regarding polyphony on page 5.)

NOTE

Unlike the "one-shot” Drum sounds, the Sound Effect sounds

are complex sequences of sounds and once triggered, play

through to their end.

When the power is turned on, bank 1 of the Sound

Effect sounds is automatically selected.

Troubleshooting

Problem

When the PortaTone is turned on or off, a buzzing

sound is temporarily produced.

The sound of the voices or rhythms seems unusual

or strange.

Possible Cause and Solution

This is normal and indicates that power is flowing

into the PortaTone.

The battery power is too low. Replace the batteries.

Not all notes are heard when playing a number of

notes simultaneously.

Too many keys are pressed at the same time. The

PortaTone is polyphonic up to a maximum of 12

notes. (See the note on page 5.)

The sound of the Voice changes from note to note.

The power cannot be turned on.

The AWM tone generation method uses multiple

recordings (samples) of an instrument across the

range of the keyboard; thus, the actual sound of the

Voice may be slightly different from note to note.

Quick, successive pressing of the POWER ON/OFF

button may fail to turn the power on. When using

the POWER ON/OFF button, wait a short time be-

tween successive presses.
