With A5000/A4000 Editor (hereafter referred to as Editor), you can edit your A5000/A4000’s
programs, sample banks or samples via your computer.
n Editor for Windows is a plug-in for XGworks(lite). To use Voice Editor for Windows, XGworks(lite) must
be installed beforehand.

Starting Up
Windows 95/98
If you have a A5000, you can start Editor by starting XGworks and choosing “A5000 Editor”
from the “Plug-in” menu. If you have an A4000, choose “A4000 Editor” instead.
n Set the MIDI Out port appropriately to send the edited data to the A5000/A4000 (Page 7).
Macintosh
n If you are using Voice Editor on a Macintosh computer, open the “Chooser” from the Apple menu and
turn off “Apple Talk.”
If you have an A5000, open the “A5000 Editor” folder in the “YAMAHA Voice Editor” folder and
double-click the “A5000Editor” icon.
If you have an A4000, open the “A4000 Editor” folder in the “YAMAHA Voice Editor” folder and
double-click the “A4000Editor” icon.
