What to do if my Yamaha Electronic Keyboard only plays some notes when I press many at once?
If not all notes are heard when playing a number of notes simultaneously on your Yamaha Electronic Keyboard, it may be because too many keys are pressed at the same time. The PortaTone is polyphonic up to a maximum of 12 notes.
Why does the sound of the Voice change from note to note on my Yamaha Electronic Keyboard?
The AWM tone generation method uses multiple recordings (samples) of an instrument across the range of the keyboard; thus, the actual sound of the Voice may be slightly different from note to note on your Yamaha Electronic Keyboard.
How to stop the buzzing sound when turning on/off my Yamaha PortaTone Electronic Keyboard?
A buzzing sound is temporarily produced when the Yamaha PortaTone is turned on or off, this is normal and indicates that the PortaTone is receiving electrical power.
