PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/AC power adaptor
• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
• Use the specified adaptor (PA-3C or PA-3B or an equivalent recommended by

CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/AC power adaptor
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord.
• Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during electrical storms.
• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector.
Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet.
• Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not intended to be charged.
• When the batteries run out, or if the instrument is not to be used for a long time, remove the batteries from the instrument to prevent possible leakage of the battery fluid.
• Keep batteries away from children.
• If the batteries do leak, avoid contact with the leaked fluid. If the battery fluid should come in contact with your eyes, mouth, or skin, wash immediately with water and consult a doctor. Battery fluid is corrosive and may possibly cause loss of sight or chemical burns.
Battery
• Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with the +/- polarity markings. Failure to do so might result in overheating, fire, or battery fluid leakage.
• Always replace all batteries at the same time. Do not use new batteries together with old ones. Also, do not mix battery types, such as alkaline batteries with manganese batteries, or batteries from different makers, or different types of batteries from the same maker, since this can cause overheating, fire, or battery fluid leakage.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
Location
• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal components.
• Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise.
(4)-8
1/2
• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected adaptor and other cables.
• Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching the stand or rack, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage to the internal components or result in the instrument falling over.
Connections
• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components, set all volume levels to minimum. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.
Maintenance
• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
Handling caution
• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.
• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel or keyboard. If this happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified
Yamaha service personnel.
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.
• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
• Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.

Congratulations on your purchase of the Yamaha PSR-290 PortaTone!
You now own a portable keyboard that combines advanced functions, great sound and exceptional ease-of-use in a highly compact package. Its outstanding features also make it a remarkably expressive and versatile instrument.
Read this Owner’s Manual carefully while playing your new PSR-290 in order to take full advantage of its various features.
6
Main Features
The PSR-290 is a sophisticated yet easy-to-use keyboard with the following features and functions:
The PSR-290 has a special Portable Grand Piano Voice — created by state-of-the-art stereo sampling technology and using Yamaha’s sophiscated AWM (Advanced Wave memory) tone generation system.
The exceptionally natural Touch Response feature, with a convenient front panel on/off switch, gives you maximum expressive level control over the voices. It also works in conjunction with the Dynamic Filter, which dynamically adjusts the timbre or tone of a voice according to your playing strength — just a like a real musical instrument!
■ Yamaha Education Suite ......................................................... pages 43, 45, 61
The PSR-290 features the new Yamaha Education Suite — a set of learning tools that utilize the latest technology to make studying and practicing music more fun and fulfilling than ever before!
■ One Touch Setting................................................................................. page 28
The One Touch Setting feature lets you automatically call up an appropriate voice for playing with the selected style. Each style has memory space for two One Touch Settings, and you can change them to your own desired voice setting — letting you save your custom panel settings for instant recall.
■ Powerful Speaker System
The built-in stereo amplifier/speaker system of the PSR-290 — with a special Bass Boost feature — provides exceptionally powerful, high-quality sound, letting you hear the full dynamic range of the PSR-290’s authentic voices.
The PSR-290 has an advanced, easy-to-use Music Database feature that automatically selects the style, voice, and effect settings for playing in a specific type of music. This can be a big help if you know what genre of music you want to play, but you don’t know what settings to make. Just select the genre, and the PSR-290 takes care of the rest!
■ GM System Level 1
“GM System Level 1” is an addition to the MIDI standard which ensures that any GM-compatible music data can be accurately played by any GM-compatible tone generator, regardless of manufacturer. The GM mark is affixed to all software and hardware products that support GM System Level.
■ XGlite
As its name implies, “XGlite” is a simplified version of Yamaha’s high-quality XG tone generation format. Naturally, you can play back any XG song data using an XGlite tone generator. However, keep in mind that some songs may play back differently compared to the original data, due to the reduced set of control parameters and effects.

Setting Up
This section contains information about setting up your PSR-290 for playing. Make sure to read this section carefully before using the instrument.
Power Requirements
Although the PSR-290 will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries,
Yamaha recommends use of an AC adaptor whenever possible. An AC adaptor is more environmentally friendly than batteries and does not deplete resources.
• Never interrupt the power supply (e.g. remove the batteries or unplug the AC adaptor) during any PSR-290 record operation! Doing so can result in a loss of data.
• Never attempt to turn the power off when a “WRITING!” message is shown in the display. Doing so can damage the internal flash memory and result in loss of data.
■ Using an AC Power Adaptor • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • q Make sure that the [STANDBY/ON] switch of the PSR-290 is set to
STANDBY.
w Connect the AC adaptor (PA-3C, PA-3B, or other adaptor specifically recommended by Yamaha) to the power supply jack.
e Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.
w e
• Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-3C or
PA-3B AC Power Adaptor (or other adaptor specifically recommended by Yamaha) to power your instrument from the AC mains. The use of other adaptors may result in irreparable damage to both the adaptor and the PSR-290.
• Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the PSR-290, or during electrical storms.
■ Using Batteries • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
For battery operation the PSR-290 requires six 1.5V “D” size, R20P (LR20) or equivalent batteries. (Alkaline batteries are recommended.) When the batteries need to be replaced, the volume may be reduced, the sound may be distorted, and other problems may occur. When this happens, turn the power off and replace the batteries, as described below q Open the battery compartment cover located on the instrument’s bottom panel.
w Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow the polarity markings on the inside of the compartment.
e Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it locks firmly in place.
• When the batteries run down, replace them with a complete set of six new batteries.
NEVER mix old and new batteries.
• Do not use different kinds of batteries (e.g. alkaline and manganese) at the same time.
• If the instrument is not to be in use for a long time, remove the batteries from it, in order to prevent possible fluid leakage from the battery.
Setting Up
Turning On the Power
With the AC power adaptor connected or with batteries installed, simply press the power switch until it locks in the ON position. When the instrument is not in use, be sure to turn the power off. (Press the switch again so that it pops up.)
• Even when the switch is in the “STANDBY” position, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the PSR-290 for a long time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet, and/or remove the batteries from the instrument.
• Never attempt to turn the power off when a “WRITING!” message is shown in the display. Doing so can damage the internal flash memory and result in loss of data.
Accessory Jacks
■ Using Headphones• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
For private practicing and playing without disturbing others, connect a set of stereo headphones to the rear panel PHONES/OUTPUT jack.
Sound from the built-in speaker system is automatically cut off when you insert a headphone plug into this jack.
■ Connecting a Keyboard Amplifier or Stereo System • • • • • • •
Though the PSR-290 is equipped with a built-in speaker system, you can also play it through an external amplifier/speaker system. First, make sure the PSR-290 and any external devices are turned off, then connect one end of a stereo audio cable to the LINE IN or AUX IN jack(s) of the other device and the other end to the rear panel
PHONES/OUTPUT jack on the PSR-290.
Stereo System
■ Using a Footswitch • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
This feature lets you use an optional footswitch
(Yamaha FC4 or FC5) to sustain the sound of the voices. The footswitch functions the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano — press and hold down the footswitch as you play the keyboard to sustain the sound.
■ Using the MIDI Terminals • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
The PSR-290 also features MIDI terminals, allowing you to interface the PSR-290 with other
MIDI instruments and devices. (For more infor-
• To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the external devices at the minimum setting before connecting them. Failure to observe these cautions may result in electric shock or equipment damage. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all devices at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.
• Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the
SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power.
• Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, resulting in reversed footswitch operation.

PSR-290 sound with the Transpose and Tuning functions.
■ Transpose • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
Transpose determines the key of both the main voice and the bass/chord accompaniment. It also determines the pitch of the songs. This allows you to easily match the pitch of the PSR-290 to other instruments or singers, or play in a different key without changing your fingering. The Transpose settings can be adjusted over a range of ± 12 semitones (± 1 octave).
Transpose can be set in the Function mode (page 75).
■ Tuning

Tuning determines the fine pitch setting of both the main voice and the bass/chord accompaniment. It also determines the pitch of the songs. This allows you to accurately match the tuning with that of other instruments. The Tuning settings can be adjusted over a range of ± 100 (approx. ± 1 semitone).
Tuning can be set in the Function mode (page 75).

Touch and Touch Sensitivity
The Touch function gives you dynamic, expressive control over the voices, letting you determine how loud or soft the sound is by your playing strength.
Turn the Touch function on or off as desired by pressing the [TOUCH] button.
• To save the Touch on/off status and the Function parameters to internal memory (flash memory), press and hold the [FUNCTION]
GrandPno
001
Indicates Touch function is on.
Touch Sensitivity lets you set how the PSR-290 responds to your playing strength, allowing you to customize the keyboard to suit your own playing style.
The default Touch Sensitivity is 2 (Medium).
Sensitivity can be set in the Function mode (page 75).
● Settings:
1 (Soft)
2 (Medium)
3 (Hard)
This results in limited touch response, and produces a relatively narrow dynamic range, no matter how lightly or strongly you play the keys.
This lets you play over a normal dynamic range (soft to loud).
This is designed for playing very soft passages, giving you slightly more detailed control in the soft volume range.
When Touch is turned off, a constant volume (corresponding to a velocity value of
80) is produced.
Effects
The PSR-290 is equipped with a wide variety of effects that can be used to enhance the sound of the voices. The PSR-290 has four separate effect systems — Harmony, Reverb, Chorus and
DSP — and each has many different effect types to choose from.
Harmony
The Harmony section features a variety of performance effects that enhance the melodies you play when using the accompaniment styles of the PSR-290. A total
of twenty-six Harmony types are available. (See page 33.)

Description
Harmony types 1 - 5 are pitch-based and add one-, two- or threenote harmonies to the single-note melody played in the right hand.
These types only sound when chords are played in the auto accompaniment area of the keyboard.
Types 6 - 26 are rhythm-based effects and add embellishments or delayed repeats in time with the auto accompaniment. These types
The individual note values in each type let you synchronize the ef-
fect precisely to the rhythm. Triplet settings are also available: 1/6
= quarter-note triplets, 1/12 = eighth-note triplets, 1/24 = sixteenthnote triplets.
• The Trill effect Types (6 - 12) create two-note trills (alternating notes) when two notes are held.
• The Tremolo effect Types (13 - 19) repeat all held notes (up to four).
• The Echo effect Types (20 - 26) create delayed repeats of each note played.

Selecting and Playing Styles
The PSR-290 provides dynamic rhythm/accompaniment patterns (styles) — as well as voice settings appropriate for each style — for various popular musical categories.
A total of 135 different styles are available, in several different categories. Each style is made up of separate
“sections” — Intro, Main A and B, and Ending — letting you call up different accompaniment sections as you perform.
The auto accompaniment features that are built into the rhythms add the excitement of instrumental backing to your performance, letting you control the accompaniment by the chords you play. Auto accompaniment effectively splits the keyboard into two areas: The upper is used for playing a melody line, and the lower (set by default to keys F#2 and lower) is for the auto accompaniment function.

Using Auto Accompaniment — Multi Fingering
When it is set to on (page 36), the auto accompaniment function automatically
generates bass and chord accompaniment for you to play along with, by using
Multi Fingering operation. You can change the chords of the accompaniment by playing keys in the auto accompaniment area of the keyboard using either the
“Single Finger” or “Fingered” method. With Single Finger you can simply play a one-, two- or three-finger chord indication (see Single Finger Chords below). The
Fingered technique is that of conventionally playing all the notes of the chord.
Whichever method you use, the PSR-290 “understands” what chord you indicate and then automatically generates the accompaniment.
■ Single Finger Chords • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
Chords that can be produced in Single Finger operation are major, minor, seventh and minor seventh. The illustration shows how to produce the four chord types.

• Notes in parentheses can be omitted.
• Playing two same root keys in the adjacent octaves produces accompaniment based only on the root.
• A perfect fifth (1 + 5) produces accompaniment based only on the root and fifth which can be used with both major and minor chords.
• The chord fingerings listed are all in “root” position, but other inversions can be used — with the following exceptions:
m7, m7b5, 6, m6, sus4, aug,
dim7, 7b5, 6(9), 1+2+5.
• Inversion of the 7sus4 and m7(11) chords are not recognized if the notes shown in parentheses are omitted.
• The auto accompaniment will sometimes not change when related chords are played in sequence (e.g. some minor chords followed by the minor seventh).
• Two-note fingerings will produce a chord based on the previously played chord.

The simple answer: Three or more notes played simultaneously is a chord. (Two notes played together is an “interval” — an interval being the distance between two different notes. This is also referred to as a “harmony.”) Depending on the intervals between the three or more notes, a chord can sound beautiful or muddy and dissonant.
The organization of notes in the example at left — a triad chord — produces a pleasant, harmonious sound. Triads are made up of three notes and are the most basic and common chords in most music.
In this triad, the lowest note is the “root.” The root is the most important note in the chord, because it anchors the sound harmonically by determining its “key” and forms the basis for how we hear the other notes of the chord.
The second note of this chord is four semitones higher than the first, and the third is three semitones higher than the second. Keeping our root note fixed and changing these notes by a semitone up or down (sharp or flat), we can create four different chords.

Augmented chord
(ex. Caug)
Diminished chord
(ex. Cdim)
Minor 3rd Major 3rd Major 3rd Minor 3rd Major 3rd Major 3rd Minor 3rd Minor 3rd
Keep in mind that we can also change the “voicing” of a chord — for example, change the order of the notes (called “inversions”), or play the same notes in different octaves — without changing the basic nature of the chord itself.

Selecting and Playing Styles
Beautiful sounding harmonies can be built in this manner. The use of intervals and chords is one of the most important elements in music. A wide variety of emotions and feelings can be created depending on the types of chords used and the order in which they are arranged.

Knowing how to read and write chord names is an easy yet invaluable skill. Chords are often written in a kind of shorthand that makes them instantly recognizable (and gives you the freedom to play them with the voicing or inversion that you prefer). Once you understand the basic principles of harmony and chords, it’s very simple to use this shorthand to write out the chords of a song.
First, write the root note of the chord in an uppercase letter. If you need to specify sharp or flat, indicate that to the right of the root. The chord type should be indicated to the right as well. Examples for the key of C are shown below.
Major chord
C
Minor chord
C m
For simple major chords, the type is omitted.
Augmented chord
C aug
Diminished chord
C dim
One important point: Chords are made up of notes “stacked” on top of each other, and the stacked notes are indicated in the chord name of the chord type as a number — the number being the distance of the note from the root. (See the keyboard diagram below.) For example, the minor 6th chord includes the 6th note of the scale, the major 7th chord has the 7th note of the scale, etc.
The Intervals of the Scale
To better understand the intervals and the numbers used to represent them in the chord name, study this diagram of the C major scale:

Song recording on the PSR-290 is similar to using a tape recorder; whatever you play on the keyboard is recorded in real time as you play it. Also, when you record subsequent parts to other tracks, you can hear the previously recorded parts as you record new ones.
Song Memory Capacity
• Maximum number of notes : approximately 10,000 (when only
“melody” tracks are recorded)
• Maximum number of chords : approximately 5,500 (when only the chord track is recorded)

Song Lesson
The Lesson feature provides an exceptionally fun and easy-to-use way to learn how to read music and play the keyboard. Lesson lets you practice the left- and right-hand parts of each song independently, step by step, until you’ve mastered them and are ready to practice with both hands together. These practices are divided into four Lesson steps, as described below.
Lessons 1 - 3 apply to each hand; press the appropriate button, [L] (left) or [R] (right) to select the desired part for practice.
Naturally, you can also use Song data you’ve loaded from computer with the Lesson features.
■ Lesson 1 — Timing
This lesson step lets you practice just the timing of the notes — any note can be used, as long as you play in rhythm.
■ Lesson 2 — Waiting
In this lesson step, the PSR-290 waits for you to play the correct notes before continuing playback of the song.
■ Lesson 3 — Minus One
This lesson step plays back the song with one part muted, letting you play and master the missing part yourself — in rhythm and at the proper tempo.
■ Lesson 4 — Both Hands
Lesson 4 is a “Minus One” practice essentially the same as Lesson 3, except that both the left- and right-hand parts are muted — letting you play and master both hands at the same time.

MIDI Functions
The PSR-290 is MIDI-compatible, featuring MIDI IN and MIDI OUT terminals and providing a variety of MIDI-related controls. By using the MIDI functions you can expand your musical possibilities. This section explains what MIDI is, and what it can do, as well as how you can use
MIDI on your PSR-290.
What Is MIDI?
No doubt you have heard the terms “acoustic instrument” and “digital instrument.” In the world today, these are the two main categories of instruments. Let’s consider an acoustic piano and a classical guitar as representative acoustic instruments. They are easy to understand. With the piano, you strike a key, and a hammer inside hits some strings and plays a note. With the guitar, you directly pluck a string and the note sounds. But how does a digital instrument go about playing a note?

R

66
Pluck a string and the body resonates the sound.
Based on playing information from the keyboard, a sampling note stored in the tone generator is played through the speakers.
As shown in the illustration above, in an electronic instrument the sampling note
(previously recorded note) stored in the tone generator section (electronic circuit) is played based on information received from the keyboard. So then what is the information from the keyboard that becomes the basis for note production?
For example, let’s say you play a “C” quarter note using the grand piano sound on the PSR-290 keyboard. Unlike an acoustic instrument that puts out a resonated note, the electronic instrument puts out information from the keyboard such as
“with what voice,” “with which key,” “about how strong,” “when was it pressed,” and “when was it released.” Then each piece of information is changed into a number value and sent to the tone generator. Using these numbers as a basis, the tone generator plays the stored sampling note.
● Example of Keyboard Information
Voice number (with what voice)
Note number (with which key)
Note on (when was it pressed) and note off (when was it released)
Velocity (about how strong)
01 (grand piano)
60 (C3)
Timing expressed numerically (quarter note)
20 (strong)
GM System Level 1
“GM System Level 1” is an addition to the MIDI standard which ensures that any GM-compatible music data can be accurately played by any GM-compatible tone generator, regardless of manufacturer. The GM mark is affixed to all software and hardware products that support GM System Level
1. The PSR-290 supports GM System Level 1.
MIDI Functions
MIDI is an acronym that stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, which allows electronic musical instruments to communicate with each other, by sending and receiving compatible Note, Control Change, Program Change and various other types of MIDI data, or messages.
The PSR-290 can control a MIDI device by transmitting note related data and various types of controller data. The PSR-290 can be controlled by the incoming
MIDI messages which automatically determine tone generator mode, select MIDI channels, voices and effects, change parameter values and of course play the voices specified for the various parts.
MIDI messages can be divided into two groups: Channel messages and System messages. Below is an explanation of the various types of MIDI messages which the PSR-290 can receive/transmit.
● Channel Messages
The PSR-290 is an electronic instrument that can handle 16 channels. This is usually expressed as “it can play 16 instruments at the same time.” Channel messages transmit information such as Note ON/OFF, Program Change, for each of the 16 channels.
Message Name
Note ON/OFF
Program Change
Control Change
PSR-290 Operation/Panel Setting
Messages which are generated when the keyboard is played. Each message includes a specific note number which corresponds to the key which is pressed, plus a velocity value based on how hard the key is stuck.
Voice number (along with corresponding bank select MSB/LSB settings, if necessary).
Messages that are used to change some aspect of the sound (modulation, volume, pan, etc.).
● System Messages
This is data that is used in common by the entire MIDI system. System messages include messages like Exclusive Messages that transmit data unique to each instrument manufacturer and Realtime Messages that control the MIDI device.
Message Name PSR-290 Operation/Panel Setting
Exclusive Message Reverb/chorus/DSP settings, etc.
Realtime Messages Start/stop operation
The messages transmitted/received by the PSR-290 are shown in the MIDI Imple-
MIDI Terminals
In order to exchange MIDI data between multiple devices, each device must be connected by a cable.
The MIDI terminals of the PSR-290 are located on the rear panel.
MIDI IN
MIDI OUT
Receives MIDI data from another MIDI device.
Transmits the PSR-290’s keyboard information as MIDI data to another MIDI device.
• Special MIDI cables (sold separately) must be used for connecting to MIDI devices. They can be bought at music stores, etc.
• Never use MIDI cables longer than about 15 meters. Cables longer than this can pick up noise which can cause data errors.

MIDI Functions
Local Control
This function lets you enable or disable keyboard control over the PSR-290’s
voices in the Function mode (page 76). This would come in handy, for example,
when recording notes to MIDI sequencer. If you are using the sequencer to play back the voices of the PSR-290, you would want to set this to “off” — in order to avoid getting “double” notes, both from the keyboard and from the sequencer.
Normally, when playing the PSR-290 by itself, this should be set to “on.”
• No sound is output from the
PSR-290 when Local ON/OFF is set to OFF.
Using Initial Setup Send with a Sequencer
The most common use for the Initial Setup Send function is in recording a song on a sequencer that is intended for playback with the PSR-290. Essentially, this takes a “snapshot” of the PSR-290 settings and sends that data to the sequencer.
By recording this “snapshot” at the start of the song (before any actual performance data), you can instantly restore the necessary settings on the PSR-290 in
the Function mode (page 76). Provided there is a pause in the song, you could
also do this in the middle of a song — for example, completely changing the PSR-
290 settings for the next section of the song.
• When the Initial Setup Send operation is completed, the PSR-
290 automatically returns to the previous panel condition.
External Clock
This determines whether the style and song playback functions are controlled by the PortaTone’s internal clock (off) or by MIDI clock data from an external sequencer or computer (on).
This should be set to on when you want to have style or song playback follow the external device (such as a rhythm machine or a sequencer). The default setting is off.
These settings can be made in the Function mode (page 76).
• If External Clock is set to ON, style or song playback will not start unless external clock are received.
Bulk Data Send
This lets you save important PortaTone data and settings to another device (such as a sequencer, computer, or MIDI data filer).
These settings can be made in the Function mode (page 76).
● Bulk Data Receive
Send the Bulk Data from computer or sequencer to the PSR-290.
• Keep in mind that all recorded
Song data and One Touch Setting data operations replace the data.

MIDI Functions
Keyboard Out
This determines whether Keyboard performance data of the Portatone is transmitted via MIDI OUT or not.
These settings can be made in the Function mode (page 76).
Style Out
This determines whether style data is transmitted via MIDI OUT or not.
These settings can be made in the Function mode (page 76).
Song Out
This determines whether Song data is transmitted via MIDI OUT or not.
These settings can be made in the Function mode (page 76).
• For the Song #001, data is not transmitted.
MIDI LSB Receive Cancel
Determines whether the LSB data of Bank Select is received or not. Press and hold the lowest key and turn on the power to change the setting (LSB is ignored).
70
To restore MIDI LSB Receive Cancel to normal (LSB is recognized), turn on the power again normally.

Loading a Song into PSR-290’s Flash Memory
The PSR-290’s internal flash memory enables you to save song data transmitted from a connected personal computer. You can play or practice Flash songs (saved in flash memory) in the same way as preset songs.
To transmit song data from a personal computer to the PSR-290, you first need to install the “Song
Filer” application to your computer.
Song data that can be saved in flash memory:
• The number of songs: max. 99 songs (Song #101–#199)

Troubleshooting
Problem
When the PSR-290 is turned on or off, a popping sound is temporarily produced.
When using a mobile phone, noise is produced.
There is no sound even when the keyboard is played or when a song is being played back.
Possible Cause and Solution
This is normal and indicates that the PSR-290 is receiving electrical power.
Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the PSR-290 may produce interference. To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or use it further away from the PSR-290.
Check that nothing is connected to the PHONES/OUTPUT jack on the rear panel. When a set of headphones is plugged into this jack, no sound is output.
Check the Local Control on/off. (See page 69.)
When using the Dictionary function (page 45), the keys in the right
hand area are used only for entering the chord root and type.
The battery power is too low. Replace the batteries. (See page 10.)
Playing keys in the right hand area of the keyboard does not produce any sound.
The sound of the voices or rhythms seems unusual or strange.
The auto accompaniment doesn’t turn on, even when pressing the [ACMP] button.
The style or song does not play back even when pressing the [START/STOP] button.
The style does not sound properly.
Make sure the Style mode is active before using the auto accompaniment. Press the [STYLE] button to enable style operations.
Check the External Clock on/off. (See page 69.)
When playing back one of the Pianist styles (#124
- #135), the rhythm cannot be heard.
Not all of the voices seem to sound, or the sound seems to be cut off.
Make sure that the Style Volume (page 42) is set to an appropriate
level.
Make sure that the Split Point (page 27) is set to an appropriate value.
This is normal. The Pianist styles have no drums or bass — only piano accompaniment. The accompaniment of the style can only be heard when accompaniment is set to ON and keys are played in the auto accompaniment area of the keyboard.
The PSR-290 is polyphonic up to a maximum of 32 notes. If the Dual voice or Split voice is being used and a style or song is playing back at the same time, some notes/sounds may be omitted (or “stolen”) from the accompaniment or song.
When using the style with a sequencer, set MIDI Echo (or the relevant control) to “off.” (Refer to the owner’s manual of your particular device and/or software for details.)
A strange “flanging” or “doubling” sound occurs when using the PSR-290 with a sequencer. (This may also sound like a “dual” layered sound of two voices, even when Dual is turned off.)
The footswitch (for sustain) seems to produce the opposite effect. For example, pressing the footswitch cuts off the sound and releasing it sustains the sounds.
The polarity of the footswitch is reversed. Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power.
The sound of the voice changes from note to note.
The AWM tone generation method uses multiple recordings (samples) of an instrument across the range of the keyboard; thus, the actual sound of the voice may be slightly different from note to note.

Voice List
■ Maximum Polyphony • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
The PSR-290 has 32-note maximum polyphony. This means that it can play a maximum of up to 32 notes at once, regardless of what functions are used. Auto
Accompaniment uses a number of the available notes, so when Auto Accompaniment is used the total number of available notes for playing on the keyboard is correspondingly reduced. The same applies to the Split Voice and Song functions.
• The Voice List includes MIDI program change numbers for each voice. Use these program change numbers when playing the PSR-290 via MIDI from an external device.
• Some voices may sound continuously or have a long decay after the notes have been released while the sustain pedal (footswitch) is held.

Drum Kit List
• “ ” indicates that the drum sound is the same as “Standard Kit 1”.
• Each percussion voice uses one note.
• The MIDI Note # and Note are actually one octave lower than keyboard
Note # and Note. For example, in “109: Standard Kit 1”, the “Seq Click H”
(Note# 36/Note C1) corresponds to (Note# 24/Note C0).
• Key Off: Keys marked “O” stop sounding the instant they are released.
• Voices with the same Alternate Note Number (*1 … 4) cannot be played simultaneously. (They are designed to be played alternately with each other.)
