S90 and the SQ01 Demystified

The SQ01 is a powerful Windows audio/MIDI

sequencer that can be used with your S90. To

take advantage of this sequencer you will need to

install both the SQ01 and the VOICE EDITOR

for S90 on your computer. Please follow the

installation guide in the TOOLS for S90 booklet

that accompanies your unit.

MULTIPLE PORT USB INTERFACE

If you want to use the S90/SQ01 as a MIDI/Audio

sequencer with Remote Control over the audio,

you need to use the S90 as your USB MIDI

interface. You can send tracks to it from the

external sequencer software to address it via a

Multiple PORT system.

• Press UTILITY

• Press F5 MIDI

• Press SF4 OTHER

• Set the MIDI IN/OUT to USB

The 5-pin DIN connector on the back (the

standard MIDI jack) is a single PORT system.

USB, on the other hand, is a multiple PORT

system. Each Port can have potentially 16 MIDI

channels. PORT 1 (always) addresses the internal

Parts of the S90. Where Port 2, for example, can

be used to address any PLG150 series Boards that

you may have installed in the unit. Port 3 will be

to control the AUDIO MIXER.

• Press UTILITY

• Press F6 PLUG

• Press SF2 MIDI

• Set the PLG150 Boards to Port 2

When you click on SETUP on the toolbar of the

SQ01 you can select MIDI > Device you can set

the Ports. This will establish communication

between the S90 and the sequencer. Each MIDI

track can be routed to the Yamaha USB OUT and

assigned a specific MIDI channel. For example,

you might have sixteen S90 PARTS, 01-16, on

MIDI channel 1-16: via Yamaha USB OUT 0-1.

You might have several PLG150-series boards -

they can be set to receive on MIDI channels 1, 2

and 3 with no conflict, if you have set your PLG

boards to Yamaha USB OUT 0-2 MIDI channel 1-

3. These tracks will be totally discreet because

they are on separate PORTS.

We will be using three Ports. Highlight the USB IN

and OUT devices as shown below. Port 1 will be

internal S90 Parts; Port 2 for PLG150 Boards and

Port 3 will be used for Remote Control functions

for the Audio Mixer.

SELECTING SOUND FROM SQ01

You will be able to select Voices from any bank of

the S90 using a search engine like this:

Here’s how to set this up: In the far left CONTROL

column of the Track View screen of SQ01 (on

MIDI tracks) you will see the GENERATOR and

VOICE boxes. Here you can select Voices for MIDI

tracks by setting the "Generator" to S90 and then

search for Voices via the "Voice" box. In order for

the S90 to show up as an available SYNTHESIZER

under the Generator function, you must have

installed the VOICE EDITOR FOR S90 on your

computer. This will load in the necessary items so

that S90 appears on the available Tone Generator

list. By clicking on the small chevron next to the

word GENERATOR you will be able to select the

S90 as the TONE GENERATOR (shown below):

On the main toolbar of the SQ01 click on SETUP…

• Select TONE GENERATOR....

• Connect the DEVICE/CH "Yamaha USB OUT 0-1:

Ch1" through "Yamaha USB OUT 0-1: Ch16" in

the left column with S90 as the TONE

GENERATOR in the right column. (Shown

here):

• Now open a NEW session by clicking on FILE>

NEW on the toolbar of the SQ01.

This will setup a new song with S90 set as the

Tone Generator for all MIDI tracks and you can

click on the VOICE box and select your sounds

using the software's Category Search. Of course,

you can set the transmit PORT/CH of the Tracks

individually, as necessary, if you are using more

than one synthesizer in your setup.

REMOTE CONTROL

In order to get the S90 Remote Control function

to work, Port 3 is designated as the

communication PORT. Port 1 is always the internal

Parts; Port 2 could be for your PLG boards (as

explained earlier) and Port 3...is selected for

communication with the REMOTE CONTROL

functions for the AUDIO MIXER.

On your S90:

• Press UTILITY

• Press F4 CTL ASN (Control Assign)

• Press SF4 REMOTE

• Set this to SQ01

• Press ENTER

• Press SEQ PLAY

• Press MIX to set the S90 in multi-

timbral/multi-MIDI channel mode.

• Press the REMOTE CONTROL button on the far

right front panel to activate Remote functions

In SQ01 under SETUP on the toolbar

• Click REMOTE CONTROL...

If you have SQ01 version 1 it will allow you to set

the MIDI communication CHANNEL, and INPUT

DEVICE.

• Set the Channel to 16, and the INPUT DEVICE

to YAMAHA USB 0-3 (if you have a different

version: select STANDARD as the MODE, then

set Channel to 16, USB 0-3 as the IN

Device).

MIDI Channel 16 is used as the communication

channel for all AUDIO MIXER communication. This

is a very important step. You will now be able to

use all the Remote Control functions, including the

START/STOP function. For details on what is

available please refer to the S90 Owner’s Manual

page 58-59. The Remote Control functions are

principally used for controlling the AUDIO tracks in

the SQ01 – using the front panel sliders and

buttons to control the audio tracks.

Audio Mixer: Quick Launch [SHIFT] + [7]

On the Audio Mixer select Setup; click on Remote

Control; The Audio Mixer Remote Control will

communicate via the YAMAHA USB IN 0-3 as

shown below. In this example there are eight

audio tracks selected under COMMAND.

• Click OK.

AUDIO AUTOMATION

The audio mixer automation icons appear on the

toolbar and under the SETUP menu. When you

select WRITE AUTOMATION the SQ01 will

automatically create the necessary track to

document your moves: Fader, Pan position, Mute

status, Solo status, and Effect send levels. It is

not necessary to create a track to record the

Audio Mixer – the sequencer will allow you to

overlay your automation – it will do the

housekeeping and put it into a folder on the main

Track View screen (typically you will find it at the

bottom of the list of tracks - in a track with a

suitcase icon in the track number column). If you

need to delete or change this data you can open

the suitcase by clicking on it and then double click

on the track to view and edit its data.

Built-in Effects

There are built-in Effects that can be applied to

the audio tracks. Please see the ON LINE Manual

for details on what is available and how to assign

them to an audio track.

The effects can be applied to any audio track as

necessary.

MIDI Mixer: Quick Launch [SHIFT] + [6]

The MIDI MIXER is available for creating

automated MIDI mixes within the sequencer. You

can use it to write data into SQ01 tracks. You can

“READ AUTOMATION” and “WRITE AUTOMATION”:

READ from/ WRITE to a sequencer track to control

the channel levels, control effect Send levels, of

your MIDI tracks. Snapshots of settings can be

inserted into the track data. When recording MIDI

track AUTOMATION you will be addressing the

S90 internal PARTS so you will want to use USB

OUT 0-1. The MIDI control data must, like all MIDI

data be recorded to a track of the sequencer.

Select a track that is set to OUT 0-1 but set the

MIDI channel for this (automation) track to ALL.

This will allow data from any fader icon or Effect

knob icon to be recorded to this track.

Here is a step-by-step:

• Set the MIDI OUT on the toolbar of the MIDI

Mixer to YAMAHA USB OUT 0-1

• Make sure both of the AUTO icons are selected

READ and WRITE (you can view the selection

under the SETUP menu – a check appears

next to READ and WRITE AUTOMATION

• Set the MIDI track to USB OUT 0-1 and the

MIDI channel to ALL (see diagram below)

• Set the TRACK to RECORD READY “R”

• Click the RED Record dot on the main

transport and press START.

The MIDI MIXER is addressing the internal Parts of

the S90 and thus is communicated with via OUT

0-1, only.1This means it is possible to control

what happens on the S90 and to the track

automation of the SQ01 from this MIDI Mixer.

For example, another good use for the MIDI Mixer

is selection of Voices. Click on the three-digit

number above the Track number at the bottom of

the channel fader. This will open a dialog box that

will allow you to search for S90 Voices and send

out an audition note.

• In the dialog box shown below, you see that

you can select a Voice via the “LIST” and it

will show you the MSB/LSB Bank Select and

Program Change Number.

• If you are using another SQ01 supported

instrument you can select it by selecting

“DEVICE” from the DATABASE.

1There is no USB IN for MIDI MIXER therefore the

direction of information is from the software to the

synth or to a track, only.

It will let you view a LIST similar to the one that

the GENERATOR / VOICE routine did. If you select

your VOICE with the MIDI MIXER, when you have

completed selection you can click on the INSERT

PARAMETER icon on the toolbar and the SQ01 will

automatically create the setup data and insert it

into the appropriate tracks.

Saving data

Saving data in the SQ01 should be done in one of

the native formats. The .yws format will save your

entire session but not the audio and there is a

second .yws format (with Samples), which will

save your session and audio included in it.

• Click SAVE AS… and select the appropriate

type file for your purpose

If you are doing a non-audio session, and wish to

send the file to a SmartMedia card for play in real

time from the S90’s playback sequencer:

• Save your data as a SMF TYPE 0

• Send your MIDI MIXER settings to the S90 by

clicking on the TRANSMIT PARAMETERS icon

(a MIDI jack icon). Then you can save the MIX

to an S90 TEMPLATE

• From the MIX area press F5 TEMPLATE

• Name one of the 50 MIX TEMPLATES and

press SF5 PUT to place (or Put) the current

MIX to the location.

• When you transfer your SMF to SmartMedia

card and place it in the S90, you can create a

play list (called a CHAIN) – each Chain can

recall a MIX and then a SMF – you can even

program in stops;

Manually retrieving a Template is called "GET" and

is accessed from F5 Template/ SF4 Get.

You can use the Chain function to automate recall

of mix setups from the FLASH ROM of the S90 and

then play SMF from the SmartMedia card. This

requires that you create several TEMPLATES (one

for each Song setup) – These will be stored in the

S90’s Flash ROM memory. Name your MIX

Templates appropriately, then set up a Chain (F1)

that has steps that look something like this:

01 mix01: Feelings (recalls the Template)

02 SMF: Feelings (plays the song)

03 mix02: My Girl (recalls the Template)

04 SMF: My Girl (plays the song)

05 mix03: SanJose? (recalls the Template)

06 SMF: SanJose? (plays the song)

07 Stop (program a stop for an announcement)

08 mix04: Alfie (recalls the Template)

09 SMF: Alfie (plays the song)

etc., etc. There are 50 TEMPLATES and 100 STEPS

available in a CHAIN. When you push PLAY, the

Mix will be recalled from the internal FLASH ROM

Mix Template and then the Chain will play the

NEXT SMF (song) directly from SmartMedia card.

In other words, to recall mix01 for “Feelings”, you

start at the top of the list. It will instantly recall

the MIX and go on to play the song “Feelings”.

The Chain will advance automatically and wait

after playing “SanJose?” Step 07 is a programmed

stop. When you push PLAY again it will continue

from the current position and recall the mix04

“Alfie” from the internal Template setup, and then

immediately play the song file from the

SmartMedia card.
