Split a yamaha PSR-GX76 keyboard

by Nicolette

I have a yamaha PSR-GX76 keyboard and I can't figure out how to split it so that one half plays one instrument, and the other half plays a different one.

starstarstarstarstar 		Split Point setting on PSR GX76 NEW
by: Anonymous

Yes, you most certainly can set the 'split point' on the GX76.
press and hold the [ACMP ON/OFF] button until 'S_POINT' appears in the display.
Use the keypad to select the value.
You can restore the split point to default, easily by pressing both the + and - keys at the same time when split point is selected.
This almost 20 year old keyboard is still excellent for basic practice uses.
The only thing that has ALWAYS aggravated me is the 'chord fingering'...There is NO 'Fingered Bass' mode...so you CAN'T PLAY INVERSIONS with the lowest bass note as the root of the chord. Just dumb. Many even OLDER Yamaha keyboards have this chord fingering option.

by: Anonymous

I think I have had my PSR-GX76 for almost 20 years but I still haven't figured it all out yet. However, I find the User Manual available on the internet free and it explains that the split voices are located between 099 and 108. On page 44 of the manual it shows how to adjust the split point to your liking but you must hit Style before ACMT ON/OFF or it remains in ACMT mode. Anybody know how to best get a mono output from the headphone jack?

It doesn't split. I had one for almost 10 years.
It's a great keyboard, I used it in the studio and even used the loops I created with it.
They could take off the DJ crap and make a better machine that splits and synchs better on the recorder.

by: Anonymous

Can anyone tell me where I can find an ac adaptor that can be used for the Yamaha PSR-GX76? (I've only found one in the UK and it involves steep shipping rate and I'm not even sure the plug would be correct.)

Thanks,
Leslie

Hello,

As a owner of this keyboard, I can tell you that it hasnt got any split functions accept the preset ones that are between no. 99 and 108 in die voice memory. These cant be changed at all.

Hopes this helps.

Regards,

Johan

Dear Nicolette: Sorry I overlooked inserting my name. What Dick Rector has said in reply is correct. Between his suggestions and mine, you should be successful, and you may not need to re-set to Factory condition. Please excuse typos in earlier message.

Dear Nicolette: If your unit has the Controls and
Display/Menu, try the following:
1) Press Split Button (or activate Split)
2) Check Display/Menu for "Split" indication
Your keyboard may then have a preselected
combo
3) To select combo YOU WANT, hold Split Button
for its delayed-second-function, tehn select t
the Voices.
My suggestion is based on general procedure for PSR's. If it works, please post a message on this Forum so othermembers can learn from your experience. Let me know haow you fare. Good luck.

by: Dick Rector

Dear Nicolette,

Not familiar with your model keyboard as it was released by Yamaha in 2000.
If you still have the manual you have to look for 'splitpoint'.
If you don't have it, with a bit of luck you can still download it in PDF format from:
www.yamaha.co.jp/manual/english/index.php

Sometimes a FACTORY-RESET will set automatically the default splitpoint. Again this is maybe different for your keyboard but if you hold down the highest white key + the 3 nearest BLACK keys to its left while powering up that will do it.
Don't worry you can't ruin anything.

If there is a function button try that to find a splitpoint-setting.
Sorry I can't be at more help, hopefully someone else reads your question and tells you how to do it.
Would be nice to let us know when and how it was done so other readers can benefit from it.

Regards and good luck
