TG33-SY22 Doc 30 Aug 1992 **************************************************************************** Changes made to the TG33 Multi-Bank settings **************************************************************************** WELCOME to a DMCS MIDI score for Yamaha TG33 and SY22. This score has been arranged primarily for the Yamaha TG33 Tone Generator, but is compatible with the Yamaha SY22 Keyboard, therefore, needing no or few adjustments toward instrument selection settings. Yamaha PSR keyboards are compatible with the percussion tracks (normally). The SY22 and TG33 sound capabilities are the same; however, voice NAMES may be different. DEAN will provide TG33 names on scores written primarily for the TG33, and will try to provide TG33 names for those scores developed on the SY22 for those who have the TG33. We are currently working on new scores for the SY22/TG33/PSR series, and will upload them to GEnie as soon as we are sure they are ready. HOWEVER..... This score may have been posted previously for another keyboard/ tone generator / midi format, but since we three have been collaborating with each other, and now have the same equipment, we thought those of you who also own the SY22/TG33, would like to hear some of the old scores as they would be enhanced by these excellent music machines. Any score re-arranged by us for the SY22/TG33 will carry the credits of the person(s) who originally uploaded/arranged the score (if the info is available). We do not wish to take credit for others' works, only for the re-arrangement for our particular machines. Look for other Eiker/Schold/Pace scores under the keywords: SY22 or TG33 We will release some new SY22/TG33 arrangements of our best old scores, but will continue to try and release new music you want to hear. ***PERCUSSION NOTE*** Dean Schold has found out that the YAMAHA PSR Series keyboards are able to play SY22/TG33 percussion tracks as they are written on the score. You may have to change your channel, as we basically use channel 8 for the Drum Kit. Other presets (instruments) will in all likelihood need to be changed. Feburary 17, 1992 : Dean will leave Percussion information at the bottom of the scores in which he has written a percussion track. This info is provided for those who do not have SY22/TG33/PSR compatability to our scores, but would like the information so they may convert it to their synths. March 2, 1992 : You may have noticed on more than one of our scores, we have used more than 1 instrument per channel. Occasionally we are forced to do this as we may end up using more than 8 instruments, or may have to use 1 instrument in 2 or more measures. We do not like to go over channel 8 in our work, as we would have to reset our synths, and also, DMCS, at present, limits all scores to only 8 staves. If you can't get the job job done in 8 channels, it's time to get a new piece of music! ************************MULTI SETTING INSTRUCTIONS*********************** -----SY22----- For those SY22 users who have been programming their MULTI settings each time they play a DMCS score, and do not know that it can be done automatically, below are steps you can do to set up at least 1 GENERIC Multi-Setting on your SY22. When you are done all you will have to do is load in your music score, select the Multi setting area you have assigned, and sit back and listen to the music. From now on, you will never have to manually set your instruments. Step 1: Select from the MULTI MODE a setting (example: 2.6) to be your automatic DMCS Area. Step 2: Press EDIT/UTILITY, then under BANK press button 8 (Midi). Step 3: Use the YES/NO keys to scroll through the information window until you see PROGRAM CHANGE. If it reads INDIVIDUAL, you will NOT want to do anything else.. press the Multi Mode button again to exit. If the panel reads COMMON or OFF, then press the CURSOR button to drop the cursor to the bottom word (off or common), then press the YES/NO buttons until the word INDIVIDUAL is seen. Again press the CURSOR button to move the cursor back up to the top line. Now you may press the MUTLI-MODE button (no need to save) and you are ready to use the new setting. EXPLANATION OF WHAT YOU DID: With Program Change set to anything but INDIVIDUAL, the channel for the setting (such as 2.6) is locked in, and the voice presets cannot change, even if directed to by DMCS. When set to individual mode, all voice presets can change per the instructions of DMCS or other sequencer. Multi setting 2.6 (if it has never been modified by you) is already set up to play channels 1-8. (You may want to check out each voice that currently occupies your chosen preset area, and make sure each instrument is on a different channel.) When using INDIVIDUAL, you never have to manually set your synth to hear another DMCS midi score. You just have to make sure the presets are correct for your synth's voices. -----TG33----- This information is included to setup your TG33 and allow it to respond to program changes as directed by DMCS. The scores we have written will now include presets for BOTH the TG33 and the SY22. Unless a multi is set up as follows, the score will not play as intended. Make sure your TG is set up to recieve program changes. Refer to your owners manual (page 89 -MIDI PROGRAM CHANGE-) to make this adjustment. 1. Select a multi-bank to setup for DMCS scores. Preferably one of the banks numbered 9 thru 16 (21-28) that are not factory presets. 2. Press the EDIT button. 3. Press the number 1 button under the Bank/Multi Channel array. 4. By pressing one or the other of the PAGE buttons, "MU VOICE NO CH 1" should appear followed by a P1,P2 or an I and the name of the instrument currently programmed. If an "off *********" appears you will need to do the following: (otherwise move to step 5). To activate the channel, press the +1/YES button. The P1,P2 or I with instrument name should now be there. 5. At this point we are ONLY concerned with the P1,P2 setting. The instrument that appears along with the P1,P2 is not important for this setup as DMCS will instruct the TG which instrument will be placed there. 6. Position the cursor under the P1,P2 or I in the window using the cursor buttons. 7. Press the -1/NO or +1/YES button until a P2 appears. 8. Press the number 2 button under the Bank/Multi Channel array to select channel 2 and repeat steps 4 thru 7 for channel 2. Repeat steps 4 thru 7 for channels 3-8, then move to step 9. 9. That takes care of channels 1 thru 8. Now we will set channels 9-16. Repeat the steps outlined above with the exception that when pressing the -1/NO or +1/YES you will need to make a P1 instead of P2 appear. Do this for channels 9-16. 10. After all channels have been set, press these buttons in the following order... MULTI, STORE, right CURSOR and +1/YES. This will store your settings in the Multi-Bank you have selected. 11. Some of our songs will also require access to the Internal instrument bank and for that purpose you will need to set up an additional Multi-Bank as outlined above with the exception that CHANNELS 9-12 will access only the internal bank. Instead of a P1 or P2 appearing (as in step 9) you will need the I to appear in the window. When finished, follow step 10 and store your new bank. Channels 1-8 will access Preset 2 instruments, channels 9-12 will access Internal instruments, and channels 13-16 will access Preset 1 instruments. 12. A few instruments on the TG33 have no settings to allow changes in volume (refered to as velocity sensitivity). OR*Rock, OR*Pipe, SQ:It, to name a few, play at the same volume throughout the score no matter which dynamic mod- ifier you use (FFF, MF, PPP, etc). In order for these instru- ments to respond to instructions sent by DMCS, you will need to adjust the parameters of these instruments. Refer to page 63 of the manual to perform this. Once you have made the adjustment, store the edited instrument to your INTERNAL BANK in a slot that you are not using. Remember to jot down the number and name for future reference. Whenever we use a instrument that needs to be adjusted, the title block will reflect this and the bank set up in instruction 11 will be used. What you have done is setup a multi-bank that will allow program changes sent from DMCS to select the correct TG33 instruments. Channels 1-8 will ONLY play instruments from Preset 2 while channels 9-16 will only allow Preset 1 instruments to play. You will now longer need to manually set up a multi-bank and plug in each instrument in order to play our music. ----- *************************** ----- We all thank you for your past support in our work, and welcome comments and suggestions.
