Key Functions and Terms
This section briefly explains the key functions of this instrument, to help you better understand the overall capa-
bilities.
Styles—Rhythm and Auto Accompaniment—
The PSR-SX900/SX700 features a variety of accompaniment and rhythmic backing patterns (called “Styles”) in a variety
of different musical genres including pop, jazz, and many others. Styles feature sophisticated Auto Accompaniment pat-
terns, letting you produce automatic accompaniment playback simply by playing chords with your left hand. This lets you
automatically recreate the sound of a full band or orchestra—even if you’re playing by yourself.
Voices—Individual sounds of the instrument—
The PSR-SX900/SX700 features a wide variety of exceptionally realistic instrumental Voices, including piano, guitar,
strings, brass, wind instruments and more. The Voices can be played manually on the keyboard, and they are also used by
the Styles, MIDI Songs, and Multi Pads.
Multi Pads—Adding musical phrases to your performance—
The Multi Pads can be used to play a number of short pre-recorded rhythmic and melodic sequences that can be used to add
impact and variety to your keyboard performances. Multi Pads are grouped in Banks of four phrases each. This instrument
features a variety of Multi Pad Banks in a variety of different musical genres. Moreover, the Audio Link Multi Pad function
allows you to create unique, new pad content with your own audio (WAV) data for playing back during your performance.
Songs—Playing back MIDI/audio files—
For this instrument, the term “Song” refers to MIDI or audio data, such as preset songs, commercially available files, etc.
Not only can you play back a Song and listen to it, but you can also play the keyboard along with Song playback.
Song playback features two modes: Song Player mode and Song List mode.
Song Player: Plays back two Songs (one MIDI Song and one Audio Song) simultaneously and allows for a smooth tran-
sition between the two.
Song List: Plays back Songs continuously according to a previously created Song List.
Mic/Guitar Connections—Sing/play along with the keyboard performance—
By connecting a microphone to the MIC/GUITAR [INPUT] jack (standard 1/4” phone plug connector), you can enjoy
singing along with your keyboard performance or with Song playback. The instrument outputs your vocals through the
connected speaker system.
Moreover, the PSR-SX900 features an Vocal Harmony/Synth Vocoder function. You can automatically apply various Vocal
Harmony effects to your voice as you sing, or use the Synth Vocoder feature to graft the unique characteristics of your
voice onto synthesizer and other sounds.
Both the PSR-SX900 and PSR-SX700 let you connect an electric guitar, and you can even use powerful DSP effects to pro-
cess the guitar sound instead, and play that along with the keyboard sounds.
Keyboard Parts
There are four keyboard parts for your manual performance: LEFT, RIGHT 1, 2 and 3. Each part has one Voice. You can combine
these parts by using the PART ON/OFF buttons to create luscious instrument textures and convenient performance combinations.
