OWNER’S MANUAL
SUPPLEMENTAL MARKING INFORMATION
Yamaha Digital Musical Instrument Products will have either a label similar to the graphic shown below or a molded/stamped
facsimile of the graphic on its enclosure. The explanation of these graphics appears on this page. Please observe all cautions
indicated.
The Exclamation point within an equila-
teral triangle is intended to alert the user

The lightning flash with arrowhead sym-
bol, within an equilateral triangle, is in-
tended to alert the user to the presence
of uninsulated “dangerous voltage”
within the product’s enclosure that may
be of sufficient magnitude to constitute
a risk of electric shock to persons.
SPECIAL MESSAGE SECTION
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE (RFI): Your Yamaha
Digital Musical Instrument Product has been type tested and
found to comply with all applicable regulations. However,
if it is installed in the immediate proximity of other electronic
devices, some form of interference may occur. For additional
RFI information see FCC information section located in this
manual.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: This product has been tested and
approved by independent safety testing laboratories in order
that you may be sure that when it is properly installed and
used in its normal and customary manner, all foreseeable
risks have been eliminated. DO NOT modify this unit or
commission others to do so unless specifically authorized
by Yamaha. Product performance and/or safety standards
may be diminished. Claims filed under the expressed war-
ranty may be denied if the unit is/has been modified. Implied
warranties may also be affected.
SPECIFICATIONS SUBJECT TO CHANGE: The information
contained in this manual is believed to be correct at the time
of printing. Yamaha reserves the right to change or modify

STATIC ELECTRICITY CAUTION: Some Yamaha Digital
Musical Instrument products have modules that plug into the
unit to perform various functions. The contents of a plug-in
module can be altered/damaged by static electricity dis-
charges. Static electricity build-ups are more likely to occur
during cold winter months (or in areas with very dry cli-
mates) when the natural humidity is low. To avoid possible
damage to the plug-in module, touch any metal object (a
metal desk lamp, a door knob, etc.) before handling the
module. If static electricity is a problem in your area, you
may want to have your carpet treated with a substance that
reduces static electricity build-up. See your local carpet
retailer for professional advice that relates to your specific
situation.

Welcome
Welcome to the DX7s, the newest member of the growing family of FM digital
synthesizers from Yamaha. Using the industry-standard DX7 as its starting point, the
DX7s offers a number of important new features, such as improved sound quality,
additional FM features, new performance options, and improved controls.
Since there is so much material available on the DX7 family of synthesizers (and on the
theory of FM digital synthesis), this manual will not be an FM tutorial. Instead, it has
been designed to be a “users manual” in the truest sense — its goal is to help you make
music with your new DX7s as quickly as possible.
If you are already familiar with the operation of the original DX7, this manual will help
you make the transition to the DX7s in short order. On the other hand, if this is your first
FM digital instrument, this manual will guide you into the operation of your new
synthesizer with easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions and explanations.
After you are comfortable with the operation of your new synthesizer, you may want to
explore the fascinating world of FM digital voicing. If so, consult the extensive list of
reference works on FM synthesis listed in the bibliography at the back of this manual.
Tips
The DX7s has been designed for years of trouhle-free use. In order to ensure that it
remains a healthy member of your family
of
musical instruments, please keep the
following tips in mind:
Installation:
When setting up the DX7s in your home or studio, avoid exposure to direct sunlight or
other sources of heat. Environments with excessive dust, cold, dampness, or vibration can
also damage your instrument. Even though the DX7s is electronic, you should treat it with
the same kind of care you would lavish on any other musical instrument.
Also, since the DX7s is electronic, you should make sure not to set it too close to
equipment (such as a television set) that generates electromagnetic fields. Such proximity
could cause both malfunctions in the synthesizer’s digital circuitry and interference noise
in the other unit.
Handling:
The DX7s is sturdy, but it can do without rough handling. Don’t subject it to sudden jolts
(such as dropping it), as this can damage the internal circuitry. If you plan to travel with it,
be sure to use a road case. Also, make sure not to apply excessive force to any of the keys,
buttons, or other controls.
Cleaning:
To clean or dust your DX7s, use nothing more than a clean, slightly damp cloth. Using
chemical solvents will damage the finish, and using too much water may do considerable
damage to the internal circuitry.
AC Power & Other Equipment:
When you are using the DX7s with an amplifier or mixer that has unbalanced outputs,
connect both units to the same AC outlet to avoid hum.
If you use a number of electronic instruments in your setup, you may want to consult an
electrician, who can make sure that your system does not overtax the available power.
AC Power & Down Time:
Whenever the DX7s will not be used for an extended period of time, it is best to protect it
from potential disaster. Electrical storms and other natural or man-made disasters can give
rise to power surges, which may damage the digital circuitry of your DX7s — even if the
power is turned off. Either unplug your instrument when not in use, or invest in power
strips with surge protectors to safeguard all of your electronic equipment.
Service & Your Warranty:
The DX7s contains no user-serviceable parts. Opening it up or tampering with it in any
way will void the warranty, and may also lead you to experience some nasty electrical
shocks. If you have a problem with your instrument, please take it to an authorized
Yamaha service center.
Modifications & Your Warranty:
Unless you are assured to the contrary in writing, you should assume that any
modifications made to your DX7s will void the original product warranty. Therefore, you
should make sure that you receive a warranty (or some other kind of guarantee) from the
person or company that is responsible for the modification.

Getting
Started
Connecting the DX7s
to a single input
amplifier.
Using stereo headphones
with the DX7s.
You can begin to enjoy your DX7s immediately, without poring through a lot of
complicated electronic theory. All you have to do is take the instrument out of the box and
proceed as follows:
Making Audio Connections
There are three different ways to connect the DX7s to sound reinforcement equipment.
The one you choose will depend on your situation:
1. If
you
have a monophonic (single input) amplifier such as a guitar amp, connect the
DX's output to the amp’s input (using a standard ¼” cable).
2. If you are using a multi-channel mixer, connect the DX’s back-panel audio output to
one of your mixer’s inputs (using a ¼” cable).
3. If you are using a set of standard stereo headphones, plug them into the DX’s Phones
output.

Turning on the DX7s
After you have made the audio connection of your choice, turn the DX7s on by pressing
the power switch located on the right side of the back panel. This is the first display you
will see on the main panel:
After a few seconds, this display will be replaced by the last Play Mode display selected

Setting the
ROM Cartridge
Banks
The ROM Cartridge supplied with your DX7s actually contains several sets of data —
called “banks.” These banks can be selected from the front panel. In order to hear all of
the Voice and Performance data, you will need to set the Voice/Performance bank to 2.
Also, certain voices in the DX7s are created using the new fractional scaling feature.
These scalings are stored in bank 3 of the ROM cartridge, so the Fractional Scaling Bank
will need to be set to bank 3. Look at the diagram on the next page and make the
necessary changes before you begin playing.
Inserting the ROM Cartridge
Before you begin to play your DX7s, insert the supplied ROM cartridge into the cartridge
slot:

Library
The Performance Mode is a completely new feature for the DX7s. It allows a number of
useful performance-oriented features to be stored and recalled instantly. These features
will be explained in detail in Sections 2 and
3
of this manual. For now, though, just follow
the steps below, and explore the richness of the Performance Mode by playing through all
of the new sounds available in the Internal and ROM Cartridge memories.
