phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the device, TV, or radio may
generate noise.
Before connecting the device to other devices, turn off the power for all devices.
Before turning the power on or off for all devices, set all volume levels to minimum.
Be sure to connect to a properly grounded power source. A ground screw
terminal is provided on the rear panel for safely grounding the device and
preventing electrical shock.
Do not insert your fingers or hand in any gaps or openings on the device.
•Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic, metal, etc.) into any
gaps or openings on the device. If this happens, turn off the power immediately
and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the device inspected
by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Do not rest your weight on the device or place heavy objects on it, and avoid use
excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
This device has a built-in backup battery. When you unplug the power cord from
the AC outlet, the internal data is retained. However, if the backup battery fully
discharges, this data will be lost. When the backup battery is running low, the
LCD indicates “Low Battery!”. In this case, immediately save the data to a
computer or other external device, then have qualified Yamaha service
personnel replace the backup battery.

SPX2000—Owner’s Manual
Features of the SPX2000
High-quality sound
High quality is guaranteed by 96 kHz 24-bit digital processing.
Flexible support for a variety of situations and applications
122 different effects are provided as presets, meeting the needs of a wide variety of situations and applica-
tions. You can edit these preset effects to create your own unique sounds.

You can use the SPX2000 Editor
(*)
or MIDI messages to control effects remotely. You can not only switch
effects, but also modify the effect parameters to make fine adjustments, or make the effect vary in conjunc-
tion with your performance on a MIDI keyboard.
*Refer to “Controlling the SPX2000 from your computer, below.
Manage effect data on your computer
You can use the SPX2000 Editor to manage or back up your original effects and data. For example you could
create a separate library for each live performance or recording project, and store effects for just that event.
Then you can simply swap the data (USER bank) for each occasion, allowing you to use effects efficiently.
Digital input/output
By connecting an AES/EBU format compatible device
you can input/output audio in digital form.
Intuitive operation
Operation is intuitive; use the [STORE] button to store
an effect, the [RECALL] button to recall an effect, and
the [
INC]/[
DEC] buttons to increment/decre-
ment a parameter value.
Instant recognition of effect types
The SPX2000’s display shows a different background
color (by default) for each type of effect. You can tell the
general effect type at a glance; e.g., cyan (light blue) for
reverb and early reflection, white for delay, magenta for
modulation, and green for effects of the Classic bank.
New reverb algorithms
New reverbs feature the newly-developed REV-X algo-
rithm, delivering rich, high-density reverberation with
smooth decay, spaciousness, and depth that brings out
the best in the original signal.
Classic SPX effects revived with new algorithms
Favorite effects such as gate reverb, freeze, and flanger
have been carried over from previous SPX-series mod-
els, with newly developed algorithms.
Stereo input/output
The SPX2000 provides full stereo operation; 2 IN/2
OUT.
Tempo synchronization
Some effects can be synchronized to a specified note
length and tempo. The tempo can be set using the front
panel [TAP] button, from a foot switch such as the FC5,
or via MIDI messages.
A full range of MIDI functionality
You can use MIDI to switch effects, modify parameter
values, or transmit/receive bulk data.Effects and tempo
synchronization can also be controlled via MIDI.
Hardware features
Controlling the SPX2000 from

devices
NOTE: If you are inputting/outputting analog signals, you must
set the [INPUT –10 dBu/+4 dBu] switch (
\
) and the [OUTPUT
–10dBu/+4dBu] switch (
Z
) appropriately for the signal level of
the connected devices.
You must turn off the power of all devices before you
make connections.
Turn the power on
NOTE:To prevent high-volume noise from being out-
put from your speakers, turn on the power starting
with the device that is closest to the audio source.
Example: sound modules mixer SPX2000
power amp
Reverse this order when turning the power off.

This will indicate whether the input signal is ANALOG
or DIGITAL. If you want to change input sources, use
“INPUT SOURCE (page 19) to select the desired input
source.
MIDI (7):
This indicator will light when MIDI data is received.
CLOCK (6):
This indicates the word clock source. Use “CLOCK
SOURCE (page 18) to select the word clock source.
kHz (8)
This indicates the word clock frequency (44.1/48/88.2/96
kHz). If you are using the SPX2000’s internal clock, you
can use “CLOCK SOURCE” (page 18) to select the fre-
quency.
Use the [INPUT L R] control (1) to adjust the analog
input signal levels (L/R); the inner knob controls the L

Three banks
The SPX2000 has three effect banks; PRESET,
USER, and CLASSIC. These banks are organized as
follows.
PRESET bank
This bank contains a total of 97 effects; 80
effects based on new algorithms and ranging
from standard to distinctive, and 17 newly-
developed reverb (REV-X) effects.
The effects in this bank are read-only.
CLASSIC bank
This bank contains 25 simple and easy-to-use
effects based on early models of the SPX series.
The effects in this bank are read-only.
USER bank
When shipped, this bank does not contain
effects. You can edit effects from the PRESET
bank or CLASSIC bank and store them as your
own original effects in the USER bank. Once
you have stored an effect, you can recall and use
it in the same way as the effects of the PRESET
bank or CLASSIC bank.
You can store 99 effects in this bank.

Basic parameters and Fine
parameters
Each of the SPX2000’s effects consists of two types
of parameter: Basic parameters and Fine parame-
ters.
Since some effects have a rather large number of
parameters, the parameters that you will probably
need to edit most often are grouped as “Basic
parameters, and supplementary parameters are
grouped as “Fine parameters.
The number and type of Basic parameters and Fine
parameters will differ for each effect.

Setting the tempo
Some effects have a Tempo parameter. You can edit
the Tempo parameter in any of the following five
ways.
Use the [ INC]/[ DEC] button (G)
This is the same method as when editing other
parameters.
Use the [TAP] button (N)
When you press the [TAP] button (N) two or
more times, the average interval will be calculated
and set as the Tempo value. If you want to use this
method, set TEMPO SOURCE (page 23) to
specify TAP” as the synchronization source.
Use the foot switch
When you press the foot switch (optional) two or
more times, the average interval will be calcu-
lated and set as the Tempo value. If you want to
use this method, use the following procedure.
1. Connect an optional foot switch (e.g., FC5) to
the [FOOT SW] jack (O).
2. Set the “TEMPO SOURCE” setting (page 23)
to specify “TAP” as the synchronization source.
Use MIDI clock
The interval of MIDI Clock messages can be used
to set the Tempo value. If you want to use this
method, set “TEMPO SOURCE (page 23) to
specify “MIDI” as the synchronization source.
Use MIDI control changes
The value specified by a MIDI Control Change
message can be used to set the Tempo value. By
using this method you can control the SPX2000’s
Te mpo value from a connected external MIDI
device.
SPX2000—Owner’s Manual 15
Operation
Effects and tempo synchronization
Some of the SPX2000’s effects allow you to synchronize the effect with the tempo. There are two such types of effect; delay-
type effects and modulation-type effects. For delay-type effects, the delay time will change according to the tempo. For mod-
ulation-type effects, the frequency of the modulation signal will change according to the tempo.
Parameters related to tempo synchronization
The following five parameters are related to tempo synchronization.
1) SYNC 2) NOTE 3) TEMPO 4) DELAY 5) FREQ.
SYNC: ........................................This is the on/off switch for tempo synchronization.
NOTE and TEMPO: .................These are the basic parameters for tempo synchronization.
DELAY and FREQ.:................... DELAY is the delay time, and FREQ. is the frequency of the modulation signal. These
directly affect the way in which the effect sound will change. DELAY is relevant only
for delay-type effects, and FREQ. is relevant only for modulation-type effects.
How the parameters are related
Te mpo synchronization uses TEMPO and NOTE to calculate a value that will be the basis for the tempo, and continues
making adjustments so that this tempo basis stays essentially the same as the DELAY (or FREQ.). This means that when
TEMPO, NOTE, and DELAY (or FREQ.) are synchronized, and you change any of these values, the other parameters will
be re-set in order to maintain the correct relationship. The parameters that are re-set and the calculation method(*
a
) used
are as follows.
If you turn SYNC on
NOTE will be set
If you edit DELAY (or FREQ.)
NOTE will be set
In this case, the NOTE value is calculated as follows.
NOTE = DELAY (or FREQ.)/(4 x (60/TEMPO))
If you edit NOTE DELAY (or FREQ.) will be set
In this case, the DELAY (or FREQ.) value is calculated as follows.
DELAY (or FREQ.) = NOTE x 4 x (60/TEMPO)
If you edit TEMPO DELAY (or FREQ.) will be set
In this case, the DELAY (or FREQ.) value is calculated as follows.
DELAY (or FREQ.) = original DELAY (or FREQ.) x (previous TEMPO/new TEMPO)
Example 1: When SYNC=ON, DELAY=250 ms, TEMPO=120, you change NOTE from 8th note to quarter note
DELAY= new NOTE x 4 x (60/TEMPO)
= (1/4) x 4 x (60/120)
= 0.5 (sec)
= 500 ms
Thus, the DELAY will change from 250 ms to 500 ms.
Example 2: When SYNC=ON, DELAY=250 ms, NOTE=8th note, you change TEMPO from 120 to 121
DELAY= original DELAY x (previous TEMPO/new TEMPO)
= 250 x (120/121)
= 247.9 (ms)
Thus, the TEMPO will change from 250 ms to 247.9 ms.
*
a
Rounded values are used for the calculation results.
Ranges of the NOTE and TEMPO values
The ranges of the NOTE and TEMPO values are limited by the ranges of the DELAY or FREQ. values. You cannot set
NOTE or TEMPO values that would cause DELAY or FREQ. to exceed their maximum possible values when synchronized
to tempo. This limitation also applies even when SYNC is OFF.
Special characteristics of the TEMPO parameter
The TEMPO parameter has the following characteristics that are unlike other parameters.
•It is a common value shared by all effects
•It cannot be stored/recalled (the value is not saved)
This means that the TEMPO value may not necessarily be the same when an effect is recalled as when that effect was
stored. Here is an example.
Store the effect: TEMPO=120 Change TEMPO to 60 Recall the effect: TEMPO=60
Normally when you change the TEMPO, the DELAY (or FREQ.) will be re-set accordingly. However if the DELAY (or
FREQ.) were changed, the effect would sound differently when recalled than when it was stored. To prevent the effect from
changing in this way between store and recall, the SPX2000 does not update the DELAY (or FREQ.) value when an effect is
recalled, even if the TEMPO is no longer the same as when that effect was stored.

Selecting the word clock source
NOTE: If the display indicates “WRONG WORD CLOCK!”, the
word clock signal from the external device has either been
interrupted or is a frequency to which the SPX2000 cannot
synchronize. Check whether there might be a problem with the
connection from the device supplying the word clock, or an
incorrect word clock setting.
If this occurs, the word clock source will automatically switch to
one of the SPX2000’s internal clocks until an acceptable word
clock is supplied from the external device.
NOTES:
The SPX2000 extracts the sampling frequency from the
clock frequency. This means that the word clock frequency =
the sampling frequency.
When INT44.1 kHz–INT 96 kHz is selected, noise may occur
or the output may be muted if the word clock and the input
signal cannot be synchronized correctly

About word clock
The signal used to synchronize digital audio signal
processing is called “word clock.
When two or more digital devices are connected in
order to send and receive digital audio signals, each
digital device must process the signal at the same
timing. Even if all connected devices are set to the
same clock frequency, the signals will not be trans-
mitted and received correctly if the processing tim-
ing does not match, or you may hear noise.
In order for digital audio signals to be synchro-
nized, one digital device must transmit the clock
(synchronization data), and the other devices must
be set to receive this clock. In such a setup, the
device that supplies the synchronization reference
clock is called the “CLOCK MASTER, and the
receiving devices are called “CLOCK SLAVES.
To use the SPX2000 as the clock master, set the
“CLOCK SOURCE” function (page 18) to either
INT96kHz, INT88.2kHz, INT48kHz, or INT44.1.
To use the SPX2000 as a clock slave, use either of
the following two methods.
1 Set the “CLOCK SOURCE” function
(page 18) to AES/EBU, and connect the
AES/EBU format compatible device supply-
ing the clock data to the [AES/EBU IN] jack
(X).
2 Set the “CLOCK SOURCE” function
(page 18) to WORD CLOCK, and connect
the device supplying the clock to the
[WORD CLOCK IN] jack (V). When doing
so, the device supplying the clock must be
connected one-to-one with the SPX2000.
Selecting the input source
NOTE: If the display indicates “Sync Error!” or if the DIGITAL
[INPUT SOURCE] indicator blinks, the incoming digital input
signal does not match the clock on which the SPX2000 is
operating.

Press the [UTILITY] button (L) several times to select
“U## CLEAR?” (## will be an effect number).
4 Erase the effect
Press the [ INC] button (G) to erase the recalled
effect.
When the effect has been erased, the display will
indicate “Completed!”
NOTE: If you attempt to use the front panel buttons to perform
an operation that has been disabled by Operation Lock, a
message of “Operation Locked!” will appear in the display.
However, this message will not appear if such an operation is
attempted by remote control.
