Congratulations! You are the proud owner of an extraordinary electronic keyboard. The Yamaha PSR-5700 PortaTone combines the most advanced AWM tone generation technology with state-of-the-art digital electronics and features to give you stunning sound quality with maximum musical enjoyment. The Interactive Accompaniment and Super Style Play features, in particular, are brilliant examples of how advanced technology can significantly expand your musical horizons.
About the PSR-5700 Manuals The PSR-5700 comes with two manuals: “Getting Started” (this manual), and the “Advanced Features” manual. ■ The “Getting Started” Manual This, as its name suggests, is the manual you should start with. The “Getting Started” manual will teach you everything you need to basically play and enjoy the PSR5700, concentrating on the keys and controls that you’ll use most frequently. The Getting Started manual covers: ● Playing the demonstration. ● Selecting and playing voices.
Taking Care of Your PortaTone Your PortaTone will give you years of playing pleasure if you follow the simple rules given below: ■ Location Do not expose the instrument to the following conditions to avoid deformation, discoloration, or more serious damage. ● Direct sunlight (e.g. near a window). ● High temperatures (e.g. near a heat source, outside, or in a car during the daytime). ● Excessive humidity. ● Excessive dust. ● Strong vibration.
■ Electrical Interference ● This instrument contains digital circuitry and may cause interference if placed too close to radio or television receivers. If this occurs, move the instrument further away from the affected equipment. ■ Data Backup ● Internal data (e.g. sequencer data) is retained in memory even if the power switch is turned OFF. If the power is not turned ON for periods longer than about a week, however, memory data will be lost.

PEDAL 7 MIDI IN, THRU and OUT Connectors MIDI IN OUT THRU Tone Generator The PSR-5700 comes with an FC5 footswitch that should be connected here for foot sustain control. The footswitch functions like the damper pedal on a piano — press for sustain, release for normal sound. An optional Yamaha EP-1 Expression Pedal can be connected to this jack to allow foot expression (swell) or effect control.
The Demonstration To give you an idea of the PSR-5700’s sophisticated capabilities, it is programmed with four demonstration sequences which play automatically. DETAIL Z Switch ON The demonstration sequences have been specially programmed for demonstration purposes — it is not possible to reproduce the demonstration sequences 100% using the PSR-5700 sequencer functions. Plug the AC power cord into a convenient AC outlet, then press the [POWER] button to turn the PSR-5700 ON.
Playing the PSR-5700 ■ Before You Begin Before playing your PSR-5700 for the first time, it might be a good idea to reinitialize it to the original factory settings just in case these have been changed at some point before you receive the instrument. To do this, press the [FUNCTION] button a few times until “F6” appears on the LED display (this is the UTILITY mode). Now press the [t] button (HARMONY TYPE) to the right of the LCD panel a few times until the following display appears: A. B. C.
Playing the PSR-5700 X Select the Orchestration ORCHESTRATION ORCH. 1 ORCH. 2+1 ORCH. 2v1 ORCH. 1: In this mode a single voice — the ORCH. 1 voice — can be played across the entire keyboard.

The drums and percussion instruments played by the various keys are marked by symbols above the keys. Some of the instruments in the DRUM KIT and POP DRUM KIT voices sound different even though they have the same name, while others are essentially the same.
Transposition, Tuning, and Octave Change The most important and fundamental adjustment for any musical instrument is tuning. The TRANSPOSITION, TUNING, and OCTAVE CHANGE functions described below let you control the pitch of the PSR-5700 in a number of ways. TRANSPOSE/TUNE This function allows the overall pitch of the PSR-5700 to be transposed up or down in semitone increments, and fine-tuned in 0.5 Hertz increments.
Transposition, Tuning, and Octave Change OCTAVE CHANGE This function allows the ORCH. 1 and ORCH. 2 voices to be independently transposed up or down by one octave. the [OCTAVE CHANGE] Z Press Button Select the OCTAVE CHANGE function from the normal play mode by pressing the [OCTAVE CHANGE] button (this is the same as the [>] display scroll button to the right of the LCD panel). A. B. C.
Voice Registration If you have particular combinations of voices you like to use in the dual or split orchestration modes, the PSR-5700 lets you store up to 10 different combinations in its Voice Registration memory so that they can be recalled by pressing a single button. Voice registration also memorizes the volume settings of the voices; the orchestration; the ON/OFF status of the key velocity, sustain, and harmony effects; and the reverb and effect settings.
Using the Accompaniment Section The PSR-5700 has 36 different accompaniment “styles” that can be used to provide fully-orchestrated or rhythm-only accompaniment.
