Overview of the PLG150-PF
The PLG150-PF is a sophisticated tone generator board that provides realistic piano and other key-
board sounds. Utilizing Yamaha’s state-of-the-art AWM2 tone generation system along with true
stereo sampling, the PLG150-PF features exceptionally rich, natural and authentic instrument
voices, to augment the sound palette on the “mother” device.
Easy Installation
Once it is connected, the PLG150-PF automatically becomes another sound source in the tone gener-
ator/sound card, and can be used as one of the instrument Parts. You can create your own original PF
voices and combine PF voices with the other voices in the “mother” device.
136 Voices and 64-note Polyphony
The PLG150-PF is packed with a total of 132 rich and authentic keyboard voices. Many of the acous-
tic grand piano sounds have been recorded in stereo for enhanced realism and luxurious tone. The
PLG150-PF also has a huge variety of realistic electric piano voices, covering a broad stylistic range
— from the classic keyboards of the ‘60s and ‘70s, to the crisp and bright digital sounds of recent
years. In addition to the electric grand, harpsichord and clav voices, a variety of combination voices
are also included, letting you play sustained pad and choir sounds, layered with piano. A maximum
64-note polyphony lets you play complex sustained chords and passages, without worrying about
notes being cut off. (For certain stereo and combination voices, the polyphony may be 32 notes or
less.)
Built-in Effects
The PLG150-PF also has its own dedicated effects processing. This means that you can apply EQ,
Reverb, Chorus, and even a Insertion effect to the voice, letting you use all of the effects on the
“mother” device for the other Parts.ong.

Required and Recommended Items
In addition to the included items listed above, you should also have the following:
Synthesizer/Tone Generator/Sound Card Compatible with the Modu-
lar Synthesis or XG Plug-in Systems
In order to use the PLG150-PF, you’ll need a synthesizer, tone generator or sound card compatible
with the Modular Synthesis Plug-in System or the XG Plug-in System. Compatible instruments
include the CS6x, MU128, and the SW1000XG. The synthesizer/tone generator/sound card should al
so have an available slot or space for installing the PLG150-PF.
XGworks or XGworks lite Music Sequencing Software
These software sequencers provide convenient tools for taking full advantage of the PLG150-PF, let-
ting you create song data that automatically selects and plays back the PF voices. They also include
the powerful PF Easy Editor (see below) for editing and controlling the PF voices. XGworks lite is
contained on a CD-ROM included with the CS6x, MU128, etc., and XGworks is contained on a CD-
ROM included with the SW1000XG.
PF Easy Editor
The PF Easy Editor is a special plug-in software module for XGworks and XGworks lite. It provides
convenient easy-to-use control over the most important PLG150-PF settings and parameters. It also
provides exceptionally intuitive editing, with a virtual “front panel” display that lets you change the
settings with sliders.
Using the PF Easy Editor is just like using the Part editing controls on your tone generator — it indi-
rectly and temporarily changes the PF voices without making changes to the original voice. The
changed parameters can either be inserted into a song to automate sound changes, or can be saved as
an PF parameter file for future recall. The PF Easy Editor software is contained on the included floppy
disk.
11
Installing and Starting the Plug-in Editor Software
(Windows 95/98)
Installing the Software
Double-click the “Setup.exe” file in the “Plug_” folder on the floppy disk to start the installation.

Parameters
PF Native Part Parameters
Keep in mind that the parameter values and settings represent offsets of the actual voice settings. This
means that the actual sound that results from the settings made here depends on the original settings
of the voice.
Also keep in mind that these are “Part” parameters and as such, are temporary; they simply alter or
offset the settings of the currently selected voice. The original voice settings are permanently main-
tained in memory.
For parameter values, a setting of “0” results in no change, while positive and negative values increase
and decrease the value respectively.
Let’s look at a specific example. If the original Bass Frequency parameter of the selected voice is set
to 100, and you set the Bass Frequency (below) to “-25,” the actual Bass Frequency will become “75.
If you set it to “+10,” the value will become “110.” Naturally, this also means that the parameter
value cannot be increased or decreased beyond its maximum or minimum values. In our example,
Bass Frequency values higher than “+27” have no effect on the sound, since the actual range is 0 —
127.
Depending on the selected voice and the particular parameter being edited, the sound or actual
parameter value of certain voices may change very little or not at all, even when the parameter
value is changed drastically.
For Modular Synthesis Plug-in System compatible devices, the voices you edit/create can be stored
to the device as PLG voices. For details on storing voices, refer to the owner’s manual of your Mod-
ular Synthesis Plug-in System compatible instrument.
PF Mode
Settings: ON, OFF
This determines whether the PF (Piano) Mode is on or off. When this is set to “ON” and damper (sus-
tain) pedal messages are received, the PLG150-PF simulates the sound of a damper pedal.
SusCurve (Sustain Curve)
Settings: Normal, Step
This determines how the voices respond to damper (sustain) pedal messages. When this is set to
“Normal, the PLG150-PF simulates the actual damper pedal action of an acoustic piano, giving you
continuous control over sustain. When this is set to “Step, sustain is simply turned on or off in
response to damper pedal messages.
Parameters

The voices of the PLG150-PF are made up of one to four sound elements. More sophisticated sounds
have more elements. Though these elements are fixed for the various sounds and cannot be changed,
the volume of each element can be set and adjusted. These parameters determine the level of each
corresponding element. (Elements that are not used by the voice cannot be set here and are indicated
by “***” in the display.)
