Yamaha Sound Edge Manuel utilisateur

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha Sound Edge—a high quality sound card with on-board musical instrument

sounds and digital effects bundled with a number of software applications with the power to turn your IBM PC/AT

compatible personal computer into a high fidelity multimedia center.

Sound Edge gives you enormous multimedia potential that will add an entirely new dimension to your computer,

including direct access to the wide world of music, stereo digital sound recording and playback, and much more.

In addition to extremely high fidelity musical instrument sounds, including an “AWM” wave table of real musical

instruments sampled with Yamaha’s Advanced Wave Memory technology, plus a wide selection of “FM” voices

generated by Yamaha’s world-famous Frequency Modulation synthesizer technology, the Sound Edge lets you

play multiple wave data on a musical scale using a sequencer. The sound card also features the high quality

“DSP” (Yamaha’s unique effect processor) which gives you great control over the sound.

The software bundled with Sound Edge consists of the original Yamaha applications EffectGear, VoiceMorph

EffectEdit and SampleEdit, plus various Voyetra applications, including AudioStation, SoundScript, WinDAT, MIDI

Orchestrator, MIDI Orchestrator Plus, and more.

The Sound Edge package includes two owner’s manuals—one for the Voyetra software and the one you’re

reading now.

This owner’s manual covers installation of the Yamaha Sound Edge sound card as well as application installation

for both Yamaha and Voyetra, and use of the Yamaha applications. For information about use of the Voyetra

applications, please refer to the

will automatically designate the right channel output to the

computer’s internal speaker.)

PC-SPK (Computer speaker): Lets you input system (“beep”) sounds. The system

sounds come from the computer’s internal speaker via the sound card.

* To hear the system sounds from the computer’s internal speaker via the sound card, unplug one end of the

connector of the audio cable extended from the computer’s internal speaker and connect it to
