other electronic components, turn off
the power for all components. Be-
fore turning the power on or off for
all components, set all volume lev-
els to minimum.
• Do not expose the instrument to
excessive dust or vibrations, or ex-
treme cold or heat (such as in direct
sunlight, near a heater, or in a car
during the day) to prevent the pos-
sibility of panel disfiguration or dam-
age to the internal components.
Do not use the instrument near

Never attempt to remove the disk or turn the power off during recording,
reading and playing back. Doing so can damage the disk and possibly the
disk drive.
If the eject button is pressed too quickly, or if it is not pressed in as far as it
will go, the disk may not eject properly. The eject button may become
stuck in a half-pressed position with the disk extending from the drive slot
by only a few millimeters. If this happens, do not attempt to pull out the
partially ejected disk, since using force in this situation can damage the
disk drive mechanism or the floppy disk. To remove a partially ejected
disk, try pressing the eject button once again, or push the disk back into
the slot and then repeat the eject procedure.
Be sure to remove the floppy disk from the disk drive before turning off the
power. A floppy disk left in the drive for extended periods can easily pick up
dust and dirt that can cause data read and write errors.
Cleaning the Disk Drive Read/Write Head
Clean the read/write head regularly. This instrument employs a precision
magnetic read/write head which, after an extended period of use, will pick
up a layer of magnetic particles from the disks used that will eventually
cause read and write errors.
To maintain the disk drive in optimum working order Yamaha recommends
that you use a commercially-available dry-type head cleaning disk to clean
the head about once a month. Ask your Yamaha dealer about the avail-
ability of proper head-cleaning disks.
Never insert anything but floppy disks into the disk drive. Other
objects may cause damage to the disk drive or floppy disks.
Precautions
Be sure to handle floppy disks and treat the disk drive with care. Follow
the important precautions below.
Compatible Disk Type
3.5” 2DD and 2HD type floppy disks can be used. A blank 2HD floppy disk
has been included with your instrument for you to record your performances.
Inserting/Ejecting Floppy Disks
To insert a floppy disk into the disk drive:
Hold the disk so that the label of the disk
is facing upward and the sliding shutter
is facing forward, towards the disk slot.
Carefully insert the disk into the slot,
slowly pushing it all the way in until it
clicks into place and the eject button
pops out.
To eject a floppy disk:
Before ejecting a floppy disk make sure
that the floppy disk drive is not in opera-
tion (the DISK IN USE indicator should
be off.)
Press the eject button slowly as far as it
will go; the disk will automatically pop
out. When the disk is fully ejected, care-
fully remove it by hand.

YAMAHA is not responsible for damage caused by improper handling or operation.
YAMAHA provides no guarantee against disk damage.
About the Floppy Disks
To handle floppy disks with care:
Do not place heavy objects on a disk or bend or apply pressure to the disk
in any way. Always keep floppy disks in their protective cases when they
are not in use.
Do not expose the disk to direct sunlight, extremely high or low tempera-
tures, or excessive humidity, dust or liquids.
Do not open the sliding shutter and touch the exposed surface of the floppy
disk inside.
• Do not expose the disk to magnetic fields, such as those produced by
televisions, speakers, motors, etc., since magnetic fields can partially or
completely erase data on the disk, rendering it unreadable.
Never use a floppy disk with a deformed shutter or housing.
Do not attach anything other than the provided labels to a floppy disk.
Also make sure that labels are attached in the proper location.
To protect your data (Write-protect Tab):
• To prevent accidental erasure of important data, slide the disk’s write-
protect tab to the “protect” position (tab open).
Data backup
For maximum data security Yamaha recommends that you keep two cop-
ies of important data on separate floppy disks. This gives you a backup if
one disk is lost or damaged. To make a backup disk use the Backup func-
tion on page 54.

MIDI data recorder capability
The MDF3 is able to receive, store, and re-transmit MIDI
System Exclusive data from nearly any MIDI instrument with
bulk data transmission capability, including devices made
by manufacturers other than Yamaha. The MDF3 can also
read and transmit bulk data files created by the Yamaha
MDF2 Data Filer and the QX3 sequencer in that device’s
MDR mode.
Sequencer capability
The MDF3 is capable of recording sequence data to disk,
and playing back this data in realtime. It can also play back
data files written by other MIDI devices using Standard MIDI
File format 0/1, as well as ESEQ sequence files created by
the Yamaha QX3, etc. (You can also play back the MDF2’s
SEQ data). Other convenient playback functions allow you
to play a program of up to 99 sequence data files in a speci-
fied order, and to play back files repeatedly in an endless
loop.
Ample data storage capacity
The MDF3 can store as many as 99 bulk or sequence files
— on each 2HD/2DD floppy disk. If necessary, a single
bulk or sequence data file can occupy the disk’s total ca-
pacity of roughly 1,200/600 kilobytes of data. In sequencer
mode, this corresponds to approximately 150,000/75,000
notes’ worth of sequence data.

ONGRATULATIONS
!
You are now the proud owner of a Yamaha MDF3 MIDI Data Filer. This compact data storage unit is capable of storing bulk data
from nearly any MIDI-equipped synthesizer, tone generator, or sequencer on convenient 3.5" 2HD/2DD floppy disks. The MDF3 is
also able to record and play back sequencer data in realtime, a feature which makes it handy for use as a portable sequencer.
To put the MDF3 to work, you will need to connect it to at least one other MIDI device. If you own the Yamaha QX3 or a MIDI-
equipped personal computer with a 3.5" disk drive, the MDF3 will also be able to read the data from disks you create with these
devices, for maximum flexibility and convenience in data management.
This Owners Manual has been written for easy reference, and includes helpful advice for a wide range of applications. In order
to take full advantage of the many capabilities of your MDF3, we urge you to read through the manual carefully first, then keep
it on hand for future reference.

MIDI-related terminology
Here we define several basic terms used in this manual. These terms are frequently
used in describing the functions of MIDI equipment.

K
EYWORDS
MIDI An abbreviation for Musical Instrument Digi-
tal Interface, which is the name of an interna-
tional standard providing for the communica-
tion of data between electronic musical instru-
ments. MIDI allows musical instruments such
as synthesizers and drum machines to com-
municate with each other, and to be controlled
by sequencers or computers.
MIDI Any piece of electronic equipment capable of
device receiving or sending data in a manner that com-
plies with the MIDI standard. This term is of-
ten applied to synthesizers, tone generators,
rhythm machines, and sequencers; however,
it also includes a variety of peripheral devices
including signal processors and patch bays, not
to mention MIDI data recorders such as the
MDF3.
MIDI data Data in a format that complies with the MIDI
standard. MIDI data can be divided between
two broad categories : sequence data and bulk
data.
sequence The data used to record and play back music.
data Generally speaking, sequence data consists of
note on and off messages, control change mes-
sages, and program change messages. In spe-
cial cases, however, it may also include cer-
tain types of system exclusive data.
bulk data Data transmitted in units known as blocks, usu-
ally for the purpose of storage or retrieval. Each
MIDI device usually transmits bulk data in a
unique format that distinguishes it from the bulk
data of other devices; thus, it is also known by
the name “system exclusive data”. Bulk data is
usually not directly related to a musical per-
formance; rather, it is used as a means for trans-
ferring large blocks of data, such as voice data,
samples, or system setup data, between two
MIDI devices.
bulk dump A transmission of bulk data from one MIDI
device to another.
11
Keywords for MDF3 operation
The terms defined below are used throughout the manual to describe functions pe-
culiar to the MDF3. The same words are frequently used in describing other MIDI
devices, as well; but keep in mind that in many cases the actual function in question
may differ considerably from that performed by the MDF3.
file A position on a disk where data is stored and
assigned a name. The MDF3 is capable of man-
aging up to 99 files on a single disk. The num-
ber of files that can be created on any given
disk is physically limited by the size of the files
and the disk’s capacity of approximately 1,200
(MF2HD)/600 (MF2DD) kilobytes.
MDR mode The mode of operation in which the MDF3 is
used to receive and transmit MIDI bulk data.
MDR data The contents of the data file that is created
when the MDF3 receives bulk data from an-
other MIDI device.
reception Generally, the receiving by one MIDI device
of MIDI data from another. In this manual, “re-
ception” refers specifically to the MDF3’s re-
ception of bulk data. The MDF3 automatically
writes the bulk data it receives to disk as an
MDR data file.
transmission Generally speaking, the sending of data from
one MIDI device to another. In this manual,
“transmission” means specifically the transmis-
sion of MDR data by the MDF3. When the
MDF3 transmits the contents of an MDR data
file, it simultaneously reads data from the disk
and outputs it via the MIDI OUT jack.
SEQ mode The mode of operation in which the MDF3 is
used to record and play back sequence data.
SEQ data The contents of the file that is created when
the MDF3 records sequence data. Such data is
often referred to as “song data”. Strictly speak-
ing, however, such a file can contain as many
as several songs, or as little as a single phrase.
recording The reception of MIDI sequence data. Record-
ing is different from the reception of bulk data
in that the data is received in realtime. The
MDF3 automatically writes the sequence data
it receives to disk as a SEQ data file.
playback The transmission of sequence data from one
MIDI device to another. Playback differs from
the transmission of bulk data in that the se-
quence data is transmitted in realtime. When
the MDF3 plays back a SEQ data file, it simul-
taneously reads data from the disk and outputs
it via the MIDI OUT jack.

Supplying Power
Using an Optional AC adaptor
If you use the MDF3 often, you will probably want to power
it with an AC power adaptor. The MDF3 can be powered by
the Yamaha PA-3B power adaptor, which is available for pur-
chase separately.
Before you connect the adaptor, check to make sure that the
POWER switch on the rear panel is turned off.
Plug the round end of the adaptor cord into the DC IN jack
on the back panel of the MDF3, then plug the adaptor itself
into an AC outlet.
Caution:
Be sure to use a power adaptor that is suited to the voltage
in your locale. Do not use an adaptor other than PA-3B. Any other
AC adaptor using different voltage can damage the MDF3.
Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or
during electrical storms.
Using Batteries
Under normal operating conditions, the MDF3 can be oper-
ated continuously for approximately three hours using a fresh
set of batteries.
Before you begin to insert the batteries, check to make sure
that the POWER switch on the rear panel is turned off. Then,
place six size “AA” alkaline batteries in the battery compart-
ment located on the underside of the unit.
Make sure that the batteries are oriented properly. The cor-
rect orientation is indicated by the markings on the inside of
the compartment.
Caution:
When the batteries run down, replace them with a com-
plete set of six new batteries. NEVER mix old and new batteries.
Do not use different types of batteries (e.g. alkaline and manganese)
at the same time.
Be sure to remove the batteries from the MDF3 when you will not
being using it for an extended period of time. If you leave batteries
in the unit during extended periods of disuse, you run the risk of
damage due to corrosion.

Handling Floppy Disks
The 3.5" 2HD/2DD floppy disk is a reliable and convenient medium for data storage, capable of
holding large amounts of data in a small package. The disk itself is a delicate piece of magnetic
film, which is protected from dust and dirt by a hard plastic cover and a shutter. This design is
capable of preserving your data against most contingencies. However, for the greatest reliability,
you should observe a few basic cautions when handling your disks.
Use 2HD/2DD disks. The MDF3 is not designed to handle disks meeting other specifications.
• Never remove a disk from the disk drive while the disk access LED is lit. Doing so can damage
the floppy disk or the disk drive.
Avoid touching the shutter of a disk. Never open the shutter and touch the actual disk surface.
Avoid placing disks close to speakers, televisions, magnets, or other objects with magnetic
fields. Even weak magnetic fields can damage or erase the data on a disk.
• Do not leave your disks in cars or other locations where they may be exposed to extreme heat
or cold.
Do not leave your disks in places where they may be exposed to condensation or extremely
high humidity.
Avoid using or storing disks in places where they may be exposed to large amounts of dust or
dirt.
Follow these cautions scrupulously. Improper handling can render a disk useless, and may cause

Protecting the data on a disk
If you turn a disk face down, you will find a small plastic tab in the lower right corner. This tab is
a write-protect switch that you can use to prevent the accidental loss of valuable data. When this
tab is in the up position (so the window is closed), the MDF3 will be able to read and write data
to the disk normally.
To protect the data on a disk, push the tab down so that the window is open. The MDF3 will be
able to read the data on the disk as usual. However, if you try to receive or record data using the
disk, the MDF3 will display an error message telling you that the disk is write-protected.
You will see the same message if you try to format a write-protected disk or change the data it
contains using one of the UTILITY mode functions.
Note:
To protect disks against accidental erasure, it is a good idea to set the protect tab down and keep the
disk in a safe place. You also might consider making a backup copy of the disk using the UTILITY mode
”Backup” function. Finally, clear labeling of disk contents is a simple but effective way to prevent the acci-
dental loss of valuable data.

VERVIEW
Now that you’ve formatted a floppy disk, you’re ready to start using the
MDF3. The overview below summarizes the use of each of the MDF3’s four
modes, and shows you how to access the JOB and UTILITY mode functions.
MDR mode (page 23)
This mode lets you receive bulk data from a MIDI device and
save it to disk as an MDR data file. In this mode the MDF3
can also transmit the contents of MDR files it creates, as well
as bulk data files created by the Yamaha MDF2 and the QX3
in MDR mode.
SEQ mode (page 31)
This mode lets you record sequence data as standard MIDI
files. In this mode, the MDF3 can also play back the SEQ data
files it creates (You can also play back the MDF2’s SEQ data
files), as well as Yamaha ESEQ data files and standard MIDI
files created by other devices.
JOB mode (page 39)
This mode lets you play back SEQ data files repeatedly, or in
a programmed order. It also allows you to set the sequence
data playback tempo, and to enable or disable the transmis-
sion and reception of MIDI sync and system control mes-
sages.
UTILITY mode (page 47)
The UTILITY mode lets you rename, delete, copy, and ap-
pend files. It also allows you to format or copy disks, and to
check the amount of space remaining on a disk.
Hint:
In the JOB and UTILITY modes, you can use the FILE DATA
keys to select a function, and the START/STOP key to execute the
function you’ve selected.
