PRECAUTIONS

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING

* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

WARNING

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical

shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage

is printed on the name plate of the instrument.

• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have

accumulated on it.

• Use only the supplied power cord/plug.

• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and

do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on

it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything

over it.

• Be sure to connect to an appropriate outlet with a protective grounding

connection. Improper grounding can result in electrical shock.

• Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or

modify them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. If it

should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it

inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

• Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet

conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill into

any openings. If any liquid such as water seeps into the instrument, turn off the

power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the

instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.

• Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit.

A burning item may fall over and cause a fire.

• If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a sudden

loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual smells or smoke

should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch,

disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected

by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

CAUTION

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage

to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Always connect the three-pin attachment plug to a properly grounded power

source. (For more information about the main power supply, see page 16.)

• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold

the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.

• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used

for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector.

Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the

outlet.

• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or

heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to

prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal

components.

• Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile

phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may

generate noise.

• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally

fall over.

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.

• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is

easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off

the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power

switch is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum

level. When you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug

the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

S90 XS/S70 XS Owner’s Manual

• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the

power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components,

set all volume levels to minimum. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all

components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls

while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.

• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners,

solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.

• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel

or keyboard. If this happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the

power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified

Yamaha service personnel.

• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might

discolor the panel or keyboard.

• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not

use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.

• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long period of time at a

high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing

loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a

physician.

Saving and backing up your data

• DRAM data (refer to the Reference Manual <separate PDF documentation>) is

lost when you turn off the power to the instrument. Save the data to the flash

ROM/the internal flash memory (see page 47)/a USB storage device/external

device such as a computer.

Data stored to the flash ROM may be lost due to malfunction or incorrect

operation. Save important data to a USB storage device/external device such as

a computer.

• Never attempt to turn off the power while data is being written to Flash ROM

(while an “Executing...” or “Please keep power on” message is shown). Turning

the power off in this state results in loss of all user data and may cause the

system to freeze (due to corruption of data in the Flash ROM). This means that

this synthesizer may not be able to start up properly, even when turning the

power on next time.

Backing up the USB storage device/external media

• To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that you

save your important data onto two USB storage devices/external media.

Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

playback of the corresponding Parts cycles automatically

even if you release your fingers from the keys, and continues

to cycle until the next key is pressed. In other words, these

buttons turn the “Arp Hold” (a part parameter) on or off. In

the Voice mode, only Part 1 is available.

Slider Function button

Pressing this button changes the functions assigned to the four

Sliders. The lamp next to the currently active parameters will

light.

In the Voice Edit mode, pressing this button a few times will turn

all the lamps off, indicating that the Sliders can be used to

control the Element levels of the currently edited Voice.

Sliders

These control the parameter selected via the Slider Function

button.

In the Voice mode, only the leftmost Slider is available.

In the Performance mode and Multi mode, these Sliders control

the parameter of the corresponding Parts.

In the Master mode, when “Zone Switch” and “Knob Slider Zone

Switch” are on, the Sliders will control the MIDI Control Change

message that is specified for each zone. Otherwise, the function

is the same as that in the Voice/Performance/Multi mode.

NOTE

If all of the Sliders are set to the minimum, you may not hear any

sound from the instrument, even when playing the keyboard. If

this is the case, raise all the Sliders to a suitable level.

NOTE The MASTER VOLUME slider adjusts the audio output level from

this instrument. On the other hand, these Sliders adjust the

volume for the Part of the Performance/Multi as a parameter.

Accordingly, the values set via the Sliders can be stored as the

Voice, Performance, Song, or Pattern data.

USB connectors

There are two different types of USB connectors, and the rear

panel of the instrument features both. The USB TO HOST

connector is used to connect this instrument to the computer via

the USB cable. The USB connection between the instrument and

the computer can only be used for transfer of MIDI data. Unlike

MIDI, USB can handle multiple ports via a single cable. The USB

connection between the instrument and the computer can only

be used for transfer of MIDI data. No audio data can be

transferred via USB.

The USB TO DEVICE connector is used to connect this

instrument to a USB storage device (hard disk drive, CD-ROM

created on this instrument to an external USB storage device as

well as load data from the device to the instrument. Save/Load

operations can be performed in the File mode.

ASSIGNABLE OUT L and R jacks

These outputs are independent of the main output (at the L/

MONO and R jacks below), and can be freely assigned to any of

the Drum Voice keys or the Parts. This lets you route specific

Voices or sounds for processing with a favorite outboard effect

unit.

The Parts which can be assigned to these jacks are as follows:

• Drum Voice key to which the drum/percussion instrument is

assigned

• Each part of the Performance*

• Each part of the Multi*

• Click (metronome)

*Includes the Audio Input Part (A/D IN Part)

OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks

Line level audio signals are output via these phone jacks. For

monophonic output, use just the L/MONO jack.

PHONES jack

A pair of headphones can be plugged in here. (Standard stereo

phone jack)

MIC INPUT jack

External audio signals can be input via this combo jack. A

microphone can be connected to the MIC INPUT jacks. This

S90 XS/S70 XS Owner’s Manual

Voices—the basic building blocks of the S90 XS/S70 XS

Voices—created in the Voice mode—are the basic sonic building blocks for the other modes of this instrument. The

Performance and Multi programs are made up of different Voices.

This instrument features an exceptionally wide variety of preset Voices for playing in virtually any musical style. Try searching

through the Voices to find your favorites. Once you’ve explored them and feel comfortable with them, try branching out

creatively and use the editing features to make your own original Voices.

Combining several Voices to create a Performance or Multi

If you want to play several different Voices together simultaneously, select a Performance. The 384 Performances are

preprogrammed and be used as such, but can also be changed and customized to suit your own needs. By using the

Performance Creator feature, you can create your own original Performance based on the Voice currently selected in the Voice

mode.

To use this instrument as a multi-timbral tone generator with computer DAW software, select a Multi. With the help of the Multis,

this instrument can be used to play back MIDI song files from a connected USB or internal flash memory device.

Master mode—create a master keyboard setup or instantly call up your desired programs

The Master mode lets you register your favorite Voices, Performances, and Multis together into easy-to-select Master programs. No

matter what mode is used—Voice, Performance or Multi—you can have it instantly and automatically selected when you call up the

appropriate Master. The Master mode can also be used to divide the keyboard into four sections—each with its own Voice—just as if

you were playing four different MIDI keyboards.

Convenient remote control of your computer DAW software

The panel of this instrument also serves as a convenient control surface for your computer music system. Use the buttons and

controllers to control the audio mixer, pan adjustment, song start/stop and the VST instrument’s parameters in your DAW

software. This highly intuitive approach gives you hands-on control over your virtual studio—a level of control that a keyboard

and mouse cannot match.

Global settings and data backup

While the Voice, Performance, and Multi modes provide controls for using and editing the programs of this instrument, the Utility

mode is the place where you make overall settings for this instrument—for example, adjusting the transpose and fine tuning

controls, or switching between MIDI and USB operation. You can also archive your important data created on this instrument to

a USB storage device for safe-keeping.
