| Plug Into a New World of
Musical Enjoyment |
|
Now there's an easy way to give your
MIDI-equipped Yamaha digital or digital/acoustic
piano recording, playback and other advanced
capabilities. Simply plug in the new DSR1
Digital Sequencer Recorder. Ideal for
MIDIPIANOs, and GrandTouch pianos, or an an
upgrade for earlier-model Disklavier pianos, the
DSR1 harnesses the power of today's Disklavier
Mark IIXG technology to expand your piano's
capabilities and extend your musical horizons.
|
| Play along with a Full
Orchestra |
|
Equipped with an internal XG tone generator, the
DSR1 provides nearly 700 digitally sampled
voices – strings, brass, woodwinds, percussion,
special effects and more – some that you can
play right from your piano keyboard, either
independently or in conjunction with the piano.
This multivoice capability also allows you to
use your piano as a complete entertainment
system, reproducing richly orchestrated
professional recordings.
|
| Turn Your Piano into a
Recording Studio |
|
With the DSR1, you can record keyboard
performance into internal memory or onto
standard floppy disks, and reproduce it. You can
replay favorite songs at the touch of a button,
in any key or tempo. Keep permanent records or
players' progress, and exchange music files with
other DSR1 owners, Disklavier pianists or MIDI
musicians. And its multi-track sequencer lets
you record up to 16 tracks of piano and a choice
of 128 instrumental sounds to create
sophisticated ensemble arrangements.
|
| Let Your Piano Entertain You |
|
DSR1 gives you access to a wide variety of
pre-recorded PianoSoft™, PianoSoft Plus™ disks,
as well as the vast library of Standard MIDI
disks now available right in your own home. Mute
the piano or any instrumental part to play along
with the pros.

MIDI standard, you can play back Standard MIDI
File disks without having to configure MIDI
channels or instrumental assignments.

help you learn or improve. Even work out a
difficult song or passage by playing one hand at
a time, while your piano plays the other!
