Congratulations on your purchase of the Yamaha PortaTone
You now own a portable keyboard that packs advanced functions and great sound in a highly compact size. Its outstanding features also make it an exceptionally expressive and versatile instrument. Read this Owner's Manual carefully while playing your new PortaTone in order to take full advantage of its various features.
Main Features
The PortaTone is a sophisticated musical instrument with the following features and functions:
q Exceptionally realistic sounds with 100 AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) Voices, utilizing digital recordings of actual instruments. q Dynamic, versatile rhythms and accompaniment with 100 music Styles. q 20 Songs, for listening enjoyment or for playing along with when using the Minus One function. q 20 Jam Track patterns, providing specially programmed rhythms and chord progressions for playing along with. q One Touch Setting, for automatically calling up an appropriate Voice for playing with the Style, Song or Jam Track you select.
4
Getting Started
Power Requirements
Although the PSR-125 will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries, Yamaha recommends use of an AC adaptor whenever possible. An AC adaptor is more environmentally friendly than batteries and does not deplete resources.
q When the Batteries Run Down
When the batteries run low and the battery voltage drops below a certain level, the PortaTone may not sound or function properly. As soon as this happens, replace them with a complete set of six new batteries.
CAUTION Never mix old and new batteries or different types of batteries (e.g., alkaline and manganese). CAUTION To prevent possible damage from battery leakage, remove the batteries from the instrument if it is not to be used for a long time.
Using an AC Power Adaptor
To connect your PSR-125 to a wall socket, you will need the optionally available Yamaha PA-3/3B/3C Power Adaptor. Use of other AC adaptors could result in damage to the instrument, so be sure to ask for the right kind. Connect one end of the adaptor to the DC IN 12V jack on the rear panel of your PSR-125, and the other end to a suitable electrical outlet.
DC IN 12V
q Auto Power OFF
The PSR-125 features an Auto Power OFF function that automatically turns the power OFF if the instrument is not used for approximately 30 minutes. This functions whether batteries or the AC power adaptor is used.
Accessory Jacks
Using Headphones
WARNING Use ONLY the Yamaha PA-3/3B/3C AC Power Adaptor (or other adaptor specifically recommended by Yamaha) to power your instrument from the AC mains. The use of other adaptors may result in irreparable damage to both the adaptor and the PSR-125.
For private practicing and playing without disturbing others, connect a set of stereo headphones to the rear panel PHONES/OUTPUT jack. Sound from the built-in speaker system is automatically cut off when you insert a headphone plug into this jack.
PHONES/OUTPUT
CAUTION Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the PSR-125, or during electrical storms.
Using Batteries
q Inserting Batteries
Turn the instrument upside-down and remove the battery compartment lid. Insert six 1.5-volt size "C" batteries as shown in the illustration, making sure that the positive and negative terminals are properly aligned. Replace the lid.
Connecting a Keyboard Amplifier or Stereo System
After making sure the PortaTone and any external devices are turned off, connect one end of a stereo audio cable to the LINE IN or AUX. IN jack(s) of the other device and the other end to the PHONES/OUTPUT jack of the PortaTone.
The Music Stand
Insert the bottom edge of the music stand into the slot located at the top rear of the PSR-125 control panel.

Turning on the Power
Press the STANDBY/ON button 1 to turn on the power of the PortaTone. Whenever the power is turned on, Voice 01 (PIANO) is automatically selected.
Playing a Song in the Song Mode
A variety of Songs and special Jam Tracks have been recorded to your PortaTone to give you a taste of what you can do with the instrument, and to provide music and patterns for you to play along with.
Selecting a Mode
Your PortaTone has three different operating modes: Voice, Style and Song -- each selected from the corresponding panel buttons. VOICE 2 lets you select and play a Voice. STYLE 3 lets you select and play a setting that includes a rhythm/accompaniment pattern. SONG 4 lets you select and play either a Song or a Jam Track pattern.
To select and play one of the Songs:
1.
With the Song mode selected, use the Numeric Keypad 5 to enter the desired Song or Jam Track number. Be sure to enter a two-digit number, as is printed next to each song on the panel. For example, to select Song 09, first press "0" on the Numeric Keypad, then "9." You can also use the +/ buttons on the Numeric Keypad to step up or down through the preset numbers; holding down the appropriate button continuously changes the number. Note that the +/ buttons have a "wrap around" feature. For example, pressing the + button from the last number returns to Song 01. (Song 01 is also automatically selected when you turn the power on.)
To select one of the modes:
Press the button corresponding to the desired mode. For now, press SONG 4 to select the Song mode.

2. To play the selected Song, press the START/STOP
button 7. Note that the dots in the MULTI DISPLAY ! flash in time with the music. The left dot flashes at the first beat of every measure, and the right dot flashes at the other beats. (For more information on the MULTI DISPLAY, see box at right.)
About the MULTI DISPLAY
As mentioned above, the dots in the MULTI DISPLAY flash in time with the rhythm, and the indication is used when a Song or Style plays back. This flashing provides a visual indication of both the tempo and the time signature of the rhythm. For Songs and Styles in 4/4 time, the dots flash like this:
1st beat

About the Tempo Functions
Tempo Values
As mentioned above, the tempo value is shown briefly in the MULTI DISPLAY when one of the TEMPO buttons is pressed. The displayed tempo range is from 10 to 60; in actual tempo values, the range is from 40 to 240 beats per minute. (Each step in the tempo adjustment corresponds to 4 beats per minute.)
NOTE
You should enter numbers on the Numeric Keypad relatively quickly. If you do not enter the second digit of a number within about ten seconds after entering the first digit, the first digit will be cancelled. Entry of a first digit is also automatically cancelled if any other button on the panel (except for those on the Numeric Keypad) is pressed before entering the second digit. Also, keep in mind that entry of numbers higher than 40 in the Song mode are ignored.
Default Tempos
Each Song and Style has been given a default or standard tempo. If you change the tempo, you can set it back to the original default setting, by pressing both TEMPO buttons simultaneously. Also, the tempo of a Song or Style returns to the default setting when selecting a different Song or Style. (The set tempo remains, however, when switching Styles during playback.) When you turn on the power of the PortaTone, the tempo is automatically set to the default setting of Style 01.
7
Voice Mode
The Voice mode features 100 authentic Voices. Many of these Voices have special preset characteristics or embellishments. The Voices are divided into various categories depending on their characteristics or the effects used. Dual Voices (#41 - #56) feature two Voices mixed together in a layer for rich ensemble sounds. Split Voices (#57 - #67) also have two Voices, but rather than being layered, each is played from a different range of the keyboard. Sustain Voices (#68 - #72) extend the sound by adding a natural, slow release. Harmony Voices (#73 - #85) have an additional one-, two- or three-note harmony added to the original monophonic Voice. Finally, Echo Voices (#86 - #00) have an echo effect that adds delayed repeats to the original Voice. Included in the Voices are special PERCUSSION Voices (#40 and #00) that lets you play various drum and percussion sounds from the keyboard. (Refer to the Percussion Assign List page 13.)
About the Harmony Voices
Since Harmony Voices are designed to automatically play two or more notes with the notes you play on the keyboard, only one note can be played on the keyboard at a time. If several notes are played together, only the last note or highest note played will be heard. The type of harmony used depends on the Voice that is selected. When a Style or Song/Jam Track is not being played back, the basic key for the harmony is always C. When a Style is played or the Stopped Accompaniment function is active, the harmony changes according to the chord played with the left hand. When a Song is played back, the harmony changes according to the chord progression of the Song or Jam Track.
Selecting a Voice
1.
Press the VOICE button to select the Voice mode.
NOTE
The PortaTone is polyphonic up to a maximum of 12 notes. (Depending on the Voice selected, fewer notes may be available.) This includes not only the Voices played from the keyboard, but also the notes in a Style pattern, and so on. Thus, if you play too many notes at one time, some may not sound and/or others may be cancelled.
2. Use the Numeric Keypad to select the desired Voice
number. Each Voice is automatically called up with the most suitable octave range setting. Thus, playing middle C with one Voice may sound higher or lower than another Voice at the same key.
3. Play the newly selected Voice.
Voice, repeat step 2 above.
To change to another
You can also play rhythm Styles in the Voice mode by simply pressing the START/STOP button. The Style last selected from the Style mode will be played.
8
Style Mode
The Style mode provides dynamic rhythm/ accompaniment patterns -- as well as Voice settings appropriate for each pattern -- for various popular music styles, as listed on the panel. A total of 100 different Styles are available, and are divided into ten different categories. Each rhythm pattern also has a specially created companion Fill In pattern, which can be played by using the SYNC START/FILL IN button. Auto Accompaniment features built into the rhythms add the excitement of instrumental backing to your performance, letting you control the accompaniment by the chords you play. Auto Accompaniment effectively splits the keyboard into two sections: The upper is used for playing a melody line, and the lower (labeled "AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT SECTION" on the keyboard, including keys C1 through F2) is for the Auto Accompaniment function.
4. With the rhythm running, you're ready to try out the
Auto Accompaniment feature. Try playing a few single notes with your left hand, and notice how the bass and chord accompaniment change with each key you play. (Refer to the boxed sections on pages 10 and 11 for more information on how to use Auto Accompaniment.)
5. Use the TEMPO buttons to change the tempo of the
Style as it's playing. (For more information on the Tempo functions, see page 7.)
6. While the Style is playing, you can add variation to the
rhythm by playing special Fill In patterns. To play a Fill In pattern, press the SYNC START/FILL IN button.
Selecting a Style
1.
Press the STYLE button to select the Style mode.
NOTE
The Fill In pattern may not play precisely when you press the SYNC START/FILL IN button, but instead starts on the beat immediately following your press of the button. Also, depending on when you press the button, only a portion of the Fill In might be played. Both of these situations are normal and are done to ensure that the Fill In pattern complements the basic rhythm, rather than disrupting it.
7. To stop the rhythm, press the START/STOP button 2. Use the Numeric Keypad to select the desired Style
number. Pressing the START/STOP button while the rhythm is playing produces a simple ending phrase. This also applies to playing Jam Track patterns in the Song mode. again.
3. You can start the selected rhythm by pressing the
START/STOP button. The PortaTone also has a Synchro Start function that allows you to start the rhythm by simply pressing a key on the keyboard. To use Synchro Start, first press the SYNC START/FILL IN button, then press one of the keys in the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT SECTION.
NOTE
Synchro Start is automatically set to stand-by when you select the Style mode. (The dots in the MULTI DISPLAY flash to indicate stand-by status.)
9
Using the Auto Accompaniment Function/Multi Fingering
The Auto Accompaniment function automatically generates bass and chord accompaniment for you to play along with, by using Multi Fingering operation. You can change the chords of the accompaniment by playing keys in the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT SECTION of the keyboard using either the "Single Finger" or "Fingered" method. With Single Finger you can simply play a one-, two- or three-finger chord indication (see Single Finger Chords below). The Fingered technique is that of conventionally playing all the notes of the chord. Whichever method you use, the PortaTone "understands" what chord you indicate and then automatically generates the accompaniment.
NOTE
Chords played in the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT SECTION of the keyboard are also detected and played when the accompaniment is stopped (Stopped Accompaniment function). In this condition, the Voices used for the bass and chords are automatically selected.
Single Finger Chords
Chords that can be produced in Single Finger operation are major, minor, seventh and minor seventh. The illustration below shows how to produce the four chord types. (The key of C is used here as an example; other keys follow the same rules. For example, B 7 is played as B and A.)
C
Press the root note of the chord.
C7
Press the root note together with any white key to the left of it.
Cm
NOTE
To use the Minus One function with one of the Styles, press the MINUS ONE button. (The LED next to the button lights.) Minus One cancels all chord accompaniment, leaving only the bass and basic rhythm of the Style.
Press the root note together with any black key to the left of it.
Cm7
Setting Auto Accompaniment to Single Finger or Fingered
Though detection of the Single Finger and Fingered methods is automatic, you can set Auto Accompaniment to function exclusively in either the Single Finger or Fingered mode. To set Auto Accompaniment to Single Finger, turn the power off, then hold down the "" button on the Numeric Keypad and simultaneously turn the power on. "SF" (Single Finger) briefly appears in the MULTI DISPLAY.
NOTE
In Single Finger, the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT SECTION is set between the C1 key (the lowest key) and the C 2 key.
Press the root note together with any white and black key to the left of it (three keys altogether).
To set Auto Accompaniment to Fingered, follow the same steps, holding down the "+" button instead. "F" (Fingered) briefly appears in the MULTI DISPLAY. To switch back to Multi Fingering operation, simply turn the power off and on again.
10
Fingered Chords
Using the key of C as an example, the chart below shows the types of chords that can be recognized in the Fingered mode.

Notes enclosed in parentheses are optional; the chords will be recognized without them.
NOTE
· If the chord is inverted (i.e., C-E-G is played as G-C-E), the PortaTone will still recognize it as a C chord. · Minor 6th chords are recognized only in root position, however; all other inversions are interpreted as minor 7th/flatted 5th. · If augmented and diminished 7th chords are inverted, the lowest note will be recognized as the root. · 7th flatted 5th chords may be played with the lowest note as the root or the 7th. · 9th chords are recognized only in root position; all other inversions are interpreted as suspended 4th. · Augmented 7th and diminished 7th chords are interpreted as simple augmented and diminished. · The PortaTone also has a Chord Cancel function to stop the chord accompaniment but allow the rhythm pattern to continue playing. To use Chord Cancel, simultaneously press any three consecutive notes in the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT SECTION; for example, C, C and D.
One Touch Setting in the Style Mode
The One Touch Setting function automatically selects an appropriate Voice for playing with the Style you select. In other words, when One Touch Setting is on, the Voice automatically changes when you change the Style. To turn on the One Touch Setting function, press the ONE TOUCH SETTING button. (The LED next to the button lights.) To turn the function off, press the button again.
NOTE
When the One Touch Setting is on, selecting another Style will automatically reset the tempo to the default of the selected Style.
11
Song Mode
The Song mode features special Songs and Jam Track patterns that have been created using the rich sounds and sophisticated accompaniment functions of the PortaTone. The Songs are generally for your listening enjoyment; however, you can also play along with them on the keyboard. Also, by using the Minus One function, you can "mute" the original melody and play it manually on the keyboard yourself. The Jam Track patterns in this mode let you "jam" or play along with a variety of dynamic rhythm styles and chord changes. If playback is not stopped, all Songs play back repeatedly in succession, indefinitely. (However, if Minus One is on, only the selected Song repeatedly plays back.) If a Jam Track pattern is selected, only the selected pattern repeats indefinitely.
About the Minus One Function
Minus One, as its name implies, takes away the melody part of the Song, allowing you to play that part yourself. You can turn Minus One on before starting a Song, or do it even while a Song is playing. To help you play the "missing" melody, scores for all Songs have been provided; see pages 16-25. To use the Minus One function with the selected Song, press the MINUS ONE button (either before starting the Song or while it is playing). (The LED next to the button lights.)
Selecting and Playing a Song or Jam Track Pattern
1.
Press the SONG button to select the Song mode.

2. Use the Numeric Keypad to select the desired Song
or Jam Track number.
The One Touch Setting function works with the Minus One function and automatically selects an appropriate Voice for playing the melody along with the Song you select. Though the Minus One function is not used with the Jam Track patterns, One Touch Setting works the same way with Jam Track, automatically selecting an appropriate Voice. To turn on the One Touch Setting function, press the ONE TOUCH SETTING button. (The LED next to the button lights.)
3. Start the selected Song or Jam Track by pressing the
START/STOP button. You can also start the selected Song or Jam Track pattern with the Synchro Start function (as in the Style mode) by simply pressing any key of the keyboard. To turn the function off, press the button again.

Troubleshooting
Problem
When the PortaTone is turned on or off, a buzzing sound is temporarily produced. The sound of the voices or rhythms seems unusual or strange. Not all notes are heard when playing a number of notes simultaneously.
Possible Cause and Solution
This is normal and indicates that power is flowing into the PortaTone. The battery power is too low. Replace the batteries.
Too many keys are pressed at the same time. The PortaTone is polyphonic up to a maximum of 12 notes. (See the note on page 8.) The AWM tone generation method uses multiple recordings (samples) of an instrument across the range of the keyboard; thus, the actual sound of the Voice may be slightly different from note to note. Quick, successive pressing of the STANDBY/ON button may fail to turn the power on. When using the STANDBY/ON button, wait a short time between successive presses.
The sound of the Voice changes from note to note.
The power cannot be turned on.
