Connections & Music Stand Check the Voltage (Before you connect the AC cord) In some areas the PSR-7000 will have a voltage selector on the bottom panel. Make sure that the voltage selector is set for the AC mains voltage in your area. The voltage selector can be set (rotated) by using a screwdriver.
The rear-panel AUX IN L/L+R and R jacks accept input from an external instrument or audio souce. The signal received at the INPUT jack is mixed with PSR-7000 sound and delivered via the speaker system. When a plug is inserted into the L/L+R jack only, the signal is delivered via the both channels.
The Demonstration To give you an idea of the PSR-7000’s sophisticated capabilities, it is programmed with 14 demonstration sequences which can be played in a number of ways. Switch ON Plug the AC power cord into a convenient AC outlet, then press the [POWER] button to turn the PSR-7000 ON.
The Random & Single Demo Play Modes If you play the demo as described above, you’ll hear all 14 demo songs played in random order. By selecting an appropriate play mode you can also play back all the songs sequence, or play a single specified song. Select a Play Mode Use either of the LCD dials under display to select one of the available play modes.
The [MIXER] Button The lower section of the normal play mode display, shown above, provides individual volume controls for the PSR-7000’s song, multi pad, accom- paniment, left, right 1, right 2, lead, and organ sound. Pressing the button switches to the individual auto-accompani- ment part volume controls: rhythm 1, rhythm 2, bass, chord 1, chord 2, pad, phrase 1, and phrase 2.
The 5-language Help Function To make operation as smooth and easy as possi- ble, the PSR-7000 provides “on-line help” for most features and functions. Press the [HELP/LANGUAGE] button to see help text for the current display, or press any other panel button after pressing the [HELP/LANGUAGE] button to see help text for that button.
The PSR-7000 allows you to individually select and play up to four “orchestra parts” at the same time in a number of ways. A range of voices can be assigned to each orchestra part. There’s also an “ORGAN FLUTE” part which simulates an extremely wide range of organ sounds —...

F5: Reverb/Chorus/DSP Effect The PSR-7000 has 16 reverb-based effects, a chorus effect, and 50 DSP (Digital Signal Processor) effects that can be selected via the REVERB/CHORUS/DSP EFFECT function display. The selected reverb, chorus, and DSP effect settings are applied to the sound when the [REVERB], [CHORUS], and [DSP EFFECT] buttons are used (see page38).
REVERB PARAMETER EDIT When the parameters are se- lected as described above, the LCD button will appear, pressing this button gives you access to the individual reverb parameters for the currently selected reverb type. Use the LCD dial below the number corresponding to the parameter you want to edit.
F5: Reverb/Chorus/DSP Effect CHORUS DEPTH Independently sets the depth of the chorus effect for the microphone, multi pads, accompaniment, left voice, right 1 voice, right 2 voice, and lead voice Use the LCD dials to set the depth of the chorus effect as required for the corresponding parts.
DSP EFFECT PARAMETER EDIT When the parameters are selected as described above, the LCD button will appear, pressing this button gives you access to the individual DSP effect parameters for the currently selected DSP type. Use the LCD dial below the number corresponding to the param- eter you want to edit.
F6: Harmony/Registration HARMONY Selects the type of harmony to be applied when the [HARMONY] button is turned on (page 37), and the volume of the harmony sound. Use the LCD dials to select the desired harmony type. Use the volume of the harmony sound. The Harmony Types 1.
NOTES • The data backed up (retained in memory even when the power is turned off) by the PSR-7000 are listed on page 140 in the MEMORY BACKUP column. When memory backup is turned OFF, the initial factory settings are automatically recalled whenever the power is turned on.
This makes it possible to create “systems” of MIDI instruments and equipment that offer far greater versatility and control than is available with isolated instruments. The PSR-7000 offers a range of MIDI functions that allow it to be used in even sophisticated MIDI systems.
PSR-7000 is being used alone. If you are using the PSR-7000 with an external sequencer, MIDI computer, or other MIDI device, and you want the PSR-7000 to be synchro- nized to the external device, set this function to .
This display page allows you to specify which PSR-7000 voices and parts will be transmitted via which MIDI channels (there are 16 MIDI channels), and to specify which types of data will be transmitted for each channel.
No data will be transmitted on the selected channel. RIGHT 1 RIGHT 2 LEAD Only data corresponding to the specified voice will be transmitted on the selected channel. LEFT ORGAN FLUTE HARMONY 1 The Harmony feature (page 37) produces a maximum of three harmony notes. These settings HARMONY 2 HARMONY 3 correspond to each of the harmony notes.
F8: MIDI This display page allows you to specify the MIDI receive mode for each PSR-7000 MIDI channels, and to specify which types of data will be received via each channel.
