The QY8: What It Is &
1
What It Can Do
What It Is …
The QY8 is an easy-to-use music production tool with tone generator,
sequencer, and auto-accompaniment (including drum machine)
capability all integrated with a user-friendly control interface. In short,
it provides everything you need to create great-sounding
accompaniments or complete songs. It may be convenient to think of
the QY8 as a 4-part auto-accompaniment machine plus a 4-part
sequencer that lets you record different parts of a musical composition
one at a time, and then play them back all together. The QY8 has an
internal memory that will hold up to 20 complete songs. For extra
storage capacity you can use the Data Out utility to transmit the song
data to a MIDI data recorder such as the Yamaha MDF2 ( page 61).
■ Voices
The QY8’s internal AWM tone generator provides 40 top-quality voices
plus a complete drum kit with different drum and percussion instru-
ments assigned to different notes. You can assign any of these voices to
the QY8’s four sequencer parts ( page 37), or play them directly from
an external keyboard or other MIDI controller via the MIDI interface
( page 43).
