Sampling Quick Guide on page 40 This function lets you record your own sounds via a microphone or line source to be played from the keyboard. During use, sampled sounds are kept in the internal wave RAM memory. The PSR-9000 comes with a 1megabyte wave memory which can be expanded up to a maximum of 65 megabytes by installing optional SIMM memory modules — see page 160 for details. Sampled wave data can be saved to floppy or hard disk.
Sampling To better understand how trigger level works, let’s look at a specific example — sampling of the phrase “a one and a two.” In this phrase, “one” and “two” are louder than the other words. Since the first “a” is lower than the trigger level, the PSR9000 doesn’t actually start sampling until the word “one.” If you want the phrase to be sampled from the first word, the trigger level should be set lower. With this new trigger level setting, the entire phrase will be sampled.

Custom Voice Creating Quick Guide on page 40 The PSR-9000 has a Custom Voice Creator feature that allows you to create your own voices. Once you’ve created a voice, you can store it to a Custom voice location for future recall. Basic Procedure 1 CREATOR] Press the [SOUND button. 2 Select “CUSTOM VOICE.” • The following voices cannot be edited via the Custom Voice Creator.
Custom Voice Creating Easy Editing ■ Parameters FILTER EG VIBRATO VOLUME Determines the timbre of the voice. See below for details. The EG (Envelope Generator) parameters affect the volume envelope of the voice. See below for details. Sets up the vibrato effect. See below for details. Determines the volume of the voice. ● FILTER (FREQ. and RESONANCE) These settings determine the overall timbre of the sound by boosting or cutting a certain frequency range.
Custom Voice Creating Full Editing ■ Element selection Each PSR-9000 voice can have up to eight separate “elements.” These elements are the basic sonic building blocks of the sound — with each element having its own waveform, envelope generator settings, and other parameters.
Custom Voice Creating ● E1: WAVEFORM See page 73 for details about Waveform. Use the CATEGORY, VOICE, and WAVEFORM LCD buttons to select the waveform for the custom voice. (This is the “raw” sound on which the voice is based.) Waveforms created by the SAMPLING feature (page 72) are also available for selection in the “SAMPLING” CATEGORY. NOTE LIMIT specifies the note range over which the voice will sound, and VELOCITY LIMIT sets the maximum velocity range for the voice.
Custom Voice Creating ● E2: EG An acronym for Envelope Generator, a block that modifies the level of the tone generator from the moment that a note is played until the sound decays to silence. The Amplitude EG controls the volume level, the Pitch EG controls the pitch, and the Filter EG controls the filter cutoff frequency. Indicates the EG settings as a diagram. Resets the currently selected EG parameters to their most basic settings.
Custom Voice Creating • FILTER RATE and FILTER LEVEL (Filter EG settings) The FILTER RATE parameters are time-related; they determine how long it takes for the sound’s timbre to change from level to level (as set in FILTER LEVEL). The FILTER LEVEL parameters are filter-related; they determine how much the sound changes in timbre over time (as set in FILTER RATE). A setting of “0” is the default value.
Custom Voice Creating ● E4: LFO An acronym for Low Frequency Oscillator, a block that produces a low frequency signal. The LFO can be used to modulate pitch, filter cutoff frequency, or amplitude to create a wide range of modulation effects. Vibrato effect based on LFO modulation, with a variable delay between the time a key is played and the beginning of the vibrato effect. See the diagram below. Selects the LFO wave. Various kinds of modulated sounds can be created depending on the selected wave.
Custom Voice Creating ● VOICE SET See page 139 for details about the Voice Set function. You can specify the Voice Set data to the Custom Voice.

MIDI Functions Built into the rear panel of the PSR-9000 are two standard sets to MIDI terminals (MIDI IN A/B, MIDI OUT A/B), a TO HOST terminal, and a HOST SELECT switch. The MIDI Functions give you a comprehensive, powerful set of tools for expanding your music recording and performance possibilities. This section explains what MIDI is, and what it can do, as well as how you can use MIDI on your PSR9000. What’s MIDI? No doubt you have heard the terms “acoustic instrument” and “digital instrument.
MIDI Functions ● Channel Messages The PSR-9000 is an electronic instrument that can handle 32 channels. This is usually expressed as “it can play 32 instruments at the same time.” Channel messages transmit information such as Note ON/OFF, Program Change, for each of the 32 channels. Message Name Note ON/OFF PSR-9000 Operation/Panel Setting Messages which are generated when the keyboard is played.
MIDI Functions On the PSR-9000, 16 channels of MIDI data can be transmitted/received over a single MIDI cable, or over a serial cable (using the TO HOST terminal). Since the PSR-9000 features two independent MIDI “ports” (A and B), a total of 32 MIDI channels can be used simultaneously. For example, several tracks can be transmitted simultaneously, including the auto accompaniment data (as shown below).
MIDI Functions MIDI Data Compatibility This section covers basic information on data compatibility: whether or not other MIDI devices can playback the data recorded by PSR-9000, and whether or not the PSR-9000 can playback commercially available song data or song data created for other instruments or on a computer.
MIDI Functions Connecting to a Personal Computer Connecting the PSR-9000 to a computer (via the TO HOST terminal or the MIDI terminals) lets you take advantage of the enormous processing power and editing flexibility of computer-generated music. Connection can be done in one of two ways: • Using the PSR-9000 MIDI terminals • Using the TO HOST terminal • In the explanation examples here, the MIDI A terminals are used.

This is normal and is no cause for alarm. • When using a mobile phone, noise is produced. Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the PSR-9000 may produce interference. To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or use it further away from the PSR-9000. • No sound results.
Troubleshooting PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION • MIDI data is not transmitted or received via the MIDI A terminals, even when MIDI cables are connected properly. The MIDI terminals can only be used when the HOST SELECT switch is set to “MIDI.” All other settings (“Mac,” “PC-1” and “PC-2”) are for direct transmission/ reception with a computer.
