Breath Controller
The Breath Controller is an essential expressive tool — both for realistic expression
with wind-instrument voices and unprecedented expressive control with string voices.
Plug the BC2 Breath Controller supplied with the VL1 (or an optional BC1 breath con-
troller) into the front-panel breath controller jack. The Breath Controller is ideal for
controlling parameters that would normally be affected by a wind player’s breath: dynam-
ics, timbre, pitch, and others.
Once you’ve set up your system and begin playing, refer to “Breath Controller
Calibration” on page 29 for instructions on calibrating your Breath Controller for opti-
mum control precision and ease.
NOTES For more information on Breath Controller setup and operation, see
the instructions packed with the supplied BC2 Breath Controller.
Foot Controllers
Although the VL1 has jacks for two foot controllers, it is not necessary to use both.
To begin with plug the supplied FC7 Foot Controller into the rear-panel FOOT CON-
TROLLER 2 jack.
If you purchase a second FC7 Foot Controller for extra control capability, plug it
into the FOOT CONTROLLER 1 jack.
NOTES For more information on Foot Controller setup and operation, see the
instructions packed with the supplied FC7 Foot Controller.
Foot Switches
The use of one or two footswitches allows sustain, portamento, and mono/poly
mode switching. We recommend that you purchase at least one Yamaha FC4 or FC5
Footswitch for this purpose. A single footswitch can be plugged into either the rear-panel
FOOTSWITCH 1 or 2 jack.
Audio Connections
Headphones
For private listening and practice headphones are ideal. You don’t have to hook up
and complete sound system, and you won’t disturb the neighbors no matter how loud or
late you play. Recommended Yamaha headphones for VL1 monitoring are the HPE-170,
HPE-160, or HPE-150 Stereo Headphones. Any standard pair of stereo headphones with a
1/4" stereo phone plug and an impedance of between about 8 and 150 ohms can be used.
