Using Yamaha Disk Orchestra disks (one is supplied with the PDP-400, others are available from Yamaha),
the PDP-400 will let you enjoy listening to automated performances, or function as your “private music tutor,”
allowing you to practice various parts of a piece while the others are played automatically. You can also play “in
ensemble” with the complete Disk Orchestra arrangement.
Disk Orchestra
■ Automatic Performance
ZInsert a Disk Orchestra Disk..................................................................................................................
Insert the DISK ORCHESTRA disk into the disk drive with the sliding door
facing the drive slot and the label side facing upward. The disk should click into
place and the disk lamp will light briefly while the PDP-400 reads and identifies
the disk.

[SONG SELECT] button so that the indicator lights before proceeding.

When the disk is inserted the [SONG SELECT], [RIGHT/1TR], [LEFT/

ing tracks contain performance data, and the selected song number will be shown
on the SONG NUMBER display. Use the [▲] and [▼] buttons below the display
to select the desired song number. Select “ALL” if you want all songs on the disk
to be played and repeated until playback is stopped.

” is selected or when starting playback by pressing the [START/
STOP] button while holding the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button, and playback is
started, depending on the setting of the “Random All Song Repeat” utility function
(page 43).
