Congratulations! …and thank you for purchasing the

Yamaha P-200. The P-200 is a high-performance

electronic piano with full-scale, weighted action

keyboard, a selection of high quality piano and other

useful instrument voices, and versatile performance and

other advanced features which make it ideal for

professional stage and studio applications, as well as for

home entertainment and music study use. The P-200’s

main features include:

■High quality AWM piano

and other sounds

The P-200 features a selection of twelve high quality instrument

voices generated by Yamaha’s patented AWM (Advanced Wave

Memory) sound generation technology. There are several piano

sounds—including a concert grand piano, with full-bodied bass

tones and reverberating high notes, that accurately captures the

natural characteristics of a real grand piano—plus various electric

pianos, vibes, organ combinations, strings and electric and upright

bass. With a maximum simultaneous “polyphonic” note output of

64 notes, the P-200 delivers uncompromising performance

capabilities.

■Organ combination editing

The P-200 comes equipped with two preset organ voices, plus

organ combination editing features which let you create your own

organ sounds and store them in Performances for instant recall.

The organ combination editing features give you precise control

over flute footages as well as attack settings.

■Digital signal processing

The P-200 has a built-in digital signal processor that lets you apply

stereo reverb, chorus, symphonic and tremolo effects to the

voices, and lets you tailor the quality of the voices to suit your

needs with an internal equalizer, as well as a three-band graphic

equalizer on the upper panel.

■Touch-sensitive keyboard with

velocity scaling

The P-200’s full-range 88-key, weighted action piano keyboard

incorporates Yamaha’s unique Graded Hammer Effect keyboard

technology, which gives it the genuine feel and response of a real

piano keyboard. You can even adjust the keyboard’s sensitivity

level, or velocity scaling, to suit your playing style, for both internal

tone generator and MIDI message transmission.

■Dual and Split voice modes

The P-200’s Dual and Split modes let you play two voices at once,

a “main” voice and a “sub” voice, either by layering the two voices

of your choice (Dual mode) or by assigning a different voice to

each end of the keyboard (Split mode). In Split mode, the key

transposition values can be set independently for both main and

sub voices.

■ One-touch Performance recall

The P-200 features a Performance Play mode that lets you store

up to 24 Performances, or configurations of all voice, MIDI and

other parameter settings, for recall at the touch of a button. This

lets you instantly change your sound and entire setup as you play,

or between songs in a live set. The P-200 is set at the factory with

24 Preset Performances, but you can overwrite them and store

User Performances which you create yourself. The P-200 features

extensive editing and storing capabilities.

■ Master keyboard features

The P-200 offers many of the control features standard in a MIDI

master keyboard, including velocity sensitivity, pitch bend and

modulation wheels, an assignable CS (continuous slider), program

change send and receive capabilities, MIDI transpose and merge

functions, and bulk dumping and multitimbral capabilities. It even

lets you set separate MIDI transmit/receive channels for the main

and sub voices. Plus, the P-200 gives you the option of

connecting a foot controller (FC) that can be assigned MIDI and

other functions in the same manner as the CS. With its powerful

MIDI capabilities, the P-200 can easily serve as at the heart of an

expanded MIDI system.
