Required and Recommended Items

XGworks or XGworks lite Music Sequencing Software

When you use Yamaha’s XGworks(lite) as your sequence software, you can take advantage of the two

editing software programs explained below, the “DX Simulator” and the “DX Easy Editor.” These

programs make it really easy to edit the voices of your PLG150-DX board.

DX Easy Editor

The DX 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-DX settings and parameters. It also

provides exceptionally intuitive editing, with virtual sliders and buttons, as well as special graphs with

click-and-drag operation.

Using the DX Easy Editor is just like using the Part editing controls on your tone generator — it indi-

rectly and temporarily changes the DX 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 a

DX Parameter ﬁle for future recall. Continuous real-time parameter changes can be recorded to a song

as well. The DX Easy Editor software is contained on the included CD-ROM.

DX Simulator

As with DX Easy Editor above, the DX Simulator is special software for use with XGworks and

XGworks lite. It allows you to directly edit all of the DX voice settings and parameters from your

computer. It also provides exceptionally intuitive editing, with a virtual “front panel” display that lets

you change the settings with buttons and sliders, just as you would on an actual DX7. It also features

a special Edit List window, that lets you quickly and easily edit all parameters from one convenient

chart.

More comprehensive than the DX Easy Editor above, the DX Simulator gives you convenient access

to all of the PLG150-DX’s parameters, controls and functions. The changed parameters can either be

inserted into a song to automate sound changes, or can be saved as a DX Cartridge ﬁle for future

recall. Continuous real-time parameter changes can be recorded to a song as well. It also lets you save

your edits directly as a User voice for future recall. The DX Simulator software is contained on the

included CD-ROM.
