THE INSTRUMENTS
NOTE: A brief output pulse appears at the RX5 outputs when the power is initially turned
on. To prevent this from possibly damaging your speaker system, turn the RX5 on first,
then your sound system.
PLAYING THE RX5 INSTRUMENTS
The НХ5 instruments can be played in real-time (without programming patterns or songs)
by tapping on the black instrument Keys. Using either a pair of headphones plugged
into the PHONES jack, or a sound system connected to the RX5 STEREO AUDIO
OUTPUTS or INDIVIDUAL AUDIO OUTPUTS, turn the RX5 ON and tap any of the black
instrument keys, while adjusting the MASTER VOLUME and/or INSTRUMENT VOLUME
faders until you can hear the RX5's instruments at a comfortable listening level
You can now "play" all the instrument keys to become familiar with their sound. The
sounds you will hear initially will be RX5's Internal voices. They are pre-assigned to the
instrument keys as shown in the foliowing chart

It you are using the RX5's stereo outputs, you will find that the instruments are panned
to different positions in the stereo field. Each pair of instrument keys (Le., each output
channel) has a set stereo pan position. If you are using the individual outputs you can,
of course, use the pan controls on your mixer to pan the instruments to any desired
position. The following chart indicates the stereo positions corresponding to each pair

* Stereo positions are indicated by numbers. 15 means LEFT, 1 means RIGHT, and the
other numbers are equally spaced in between (8 means CENTER). These are
equivalent to the stereo numbers 1/15 thru 15/1 on the Yamaha RX11 апа RX15
