The Yamaha EX5 and EX7 Music Synthesizers, and the EX5R Tone Generator, offer more
music performance and production power than ever before available in a single keyboard or
tone generator unit. All three models feature a unique Extended Synthesis system which
incorporates a number of the most advanced tone generator technologies currently available
… plus a full-featured sampling system. There’s also a top-quality internal effect system so
no extra sound-processing equipment is required. 16-track song and 8-track pattern
sequencers provide sophisticated on-board sequence programming and editing capability,
while a unique 4-track arpeggiator function adds extended performance and
accompaniment capability. The EX-series keyboards and tone generator also offer one of the
most versatile and intuitive real-time control systems available, and they’re expandable to
suit a wide range of professional systems and requirements.
We urge you to read through at least the introductory section of this owner’s manual while
