Pssing Acid Tutorial - Loops and Realtime tweaking on Yamaha Pss-480 Pss-580 Pss-680 Pss-780

[@kentaccordionist]

I had a pss790 in the early 90s. It was awm not fm, had 5 octaves of mini keys. Full midi in out and thru. An 8 track 8 song sequencer. And a vector joystick for morphing between sounds. I used it with an Atari STFM and an alesis mmt8 for sequencing as it was 16 part multitimbral. And I could also do a sysex dump of the internal sequencer to the Atari. Oh happy days. Also you could use the pitchbend on the drums, and there was a way of reversing the bend so bending up lowered the pitch and vice versa.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

I've seen those, they do look like fun so I'll grab one if I manage to find one for reasonable money. Yamaha knew how to make home keyboard equipment that was much more powerful than it needed to be back then 😄

[@guitfidle]

Cool video! I was given a PSS-480 like 20 years ago- it's a blast! People see it and think it's a toy, but I have definitely done the deep dive with parameter manipulation on it, I swear nobody I've ever talked to has even heard of these before, so it's great to see it getting some love here.

[@5argetech56]

Wrong Bing! the PSS-480 was my first synth! I used it with a Yamaha QX-21 two track sequencer! Made some banging tracks with it! Stored all my sequences via Cassette interface from the QX-21. The thing was a real musical synth instrument. It had full 16 midi channels 12 note poly! and full Midi in-out-thru. I loved it!

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Ha yeah I had a QX sequencer for a while. Storing data on the cassettes was a particular challenge for some reason even though it's tech i grew up with so I'm familiar with the method. I had to track down a specific tape deck to get it to work properly 😄

[@TechNoPhobiaGirl]

Great job! Really enjoyed watching! I bought the PSS-480 back in the 80s, brand new, and I still have it. I had NO IDEA it could do such COOL stuff!

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

TechNoPhobe Thanks. I hope you have some fun with it :)

[@RaptureMusicOfficial]

Awesome model! I'm a big time PortaSound and PortaTone lover. The 80s and 90s models of Yamaha keyboards have so much personality, character and style! (Just like the Korg Workstations of 80s and 90s). Nowadays they mostly just produce digital plastic junk keyboards.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Thank you. Yeah love this era of home keyboard, they were really trying to offer something with some flexibility even if it was just a mini lofi synth.

[@RaptureMusicOfficial]

@@ChrisLodyMusic Yes indeed, they tried hard and succeeded! The newer keyboards are often very boring, they offer nothing interesting! Unlike the 80s & 90s Yamaha & Korg keyboards for example.

[@briannhinton]

I do love the newer reface line. And some of the mini ps keyboards.

[@KRAFTWERK2K6]

Amazing to see someone going a step beyond the machine limitations :) I should test this with my PSS 680 sometimes.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

KRAFTWERK2K6 Thanks. I did a tune on the 680 too which was also fun. I haven't recorded the tutorial for that one yet, not sure when I'll get time.

[@danieklerr]

Hello.. You know, in the last ten years, I've gone to great lengths to promote the old PSS/PSR FM Yamaha keyboards. I have lots of videos and modified units, right here in KZbin. I absolutely learned some things from you today, and I greatly appreciate it! Thank you! Subbed.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

SnowMetal No problem, glad I could help. Yeah I’ve been hoovering them up wherever I can find them. Yamaha did some great work cramming some really useable hardware into these tiny boxes back in the day. Shame I didn’t have one when I was growing up

okay i just bought a pss-780 for 3€, what a great deal considering it is able to do such tricks

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Gerris Lacustris Wow that is a good price. Yeah they offer good band for buck, especially for that price!

[@gerrislacustris328]

yep i found it at a yard sale without box nor alimentation, the keys are pretty yellowed and it makes a nasty static noise when turned on but everything else works properly. did you ever experienced such an issue ? i think it may come from the alimentation i use, even if it works perfectly with my good'ol PSS-270

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Gerris Lacustris Do you mean power supply when you say alimentation? If so that could be an issue but they are a little bit noisy anyway, they tend to have a high frequency whistle when being used. But it might be worth trying batteries or another power supply and see if it makes any difference

[@gerrislacustris328]

oh yes i meant power supply (english is not my first language so the words i use might be a little off). it does quite a loud buzzing sound like 'prprprprprprpr', i'm definitly gonna buy some batteries because i wan't to get my PSS-270 outside eheh. thank you for answering :)

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Gerris Lacustris No problem. A bad power supply is most likely then. Batteries are the purest form of power so it'll sound it's least buzzy using them.

[@bestrickie2]

Hi very good production you are creating. I have a PSS-580 that is the same as the 480. I am attempting to play arpeggios from another keyboard and attempting to get the 580 to play arpeggios via midi but to no avail. I have midi out from the other keyboard that has arpeggios to midi in on 580. The midi signal is being received as when I play notes there is a response. Do you happen to know how I can have arpeggio play on the 580 from the other keyboard? Thank you.

[@bestrickie2]

Soz mate I may have asked you the question below but can’t remember as I have sent the message to a few folk who have the same type of set up. I’m trying to get my 580 to play the arpeggios from my mini Nova Novation synth that is a stunning synth to.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

+bestrickie2 Hi. Yeah the 580 can do that as long as the novation can send the midi notes over midi. I’ve never used a nova so it’s worth checking the manual for that

[@telecomboring]

Sure I recognise your name from the korg ds10 forums way back? Found a pss 680 on the side of the road and impressed with what it can do.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Yeah that was me 😁 Ds10 was the reason I started my KZbin channel actually. Nice work finding that 680, plenty of goodness still to be squeezed from them I'd say

I have a question I started to try various sounds on my piano and I was not sure how I do to put it back to traditional

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

If it's the same model as these you can get back to the basic presets by pressing 'Voice' and typing in the number of the preset you want such as 00 for synth brass

[@dianafridabtmfrid923]

This is so cool

[@daddy_skinny_fingers8184]

Gonna have to try this on my PSS-680. Would be cool to mod a wheel or something for the parameter value selection so stuff like this could be done more fluidly.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Pete Pasanen Yeah it would. I've thought about having a go at that. A store button switch lock and an encoder would hopefully do the trick as they send out pulses as they're turned which would work I think. Hasn't gone beyond the thinking stage yet but worth a go

jus bought a PSS-270 which is on da way... wish I'd have checked a few vids out on the bad boi before hand...

[@Medniex]

Wow! And I tought that it's not possible to make loops and arpeggios without any external gear. So I made really long sequence by using 3 melody slots for one of my band's song. It was really painful to record it haha 😁

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Medniex Yeah it’s tricky to record that kind of thing on it without making mistakes so it’s great to have the loop function sometimes

[@Medniex]

Just uploaded a video where I'm using loops for the first time. There is no patch editing in real time like in your video, but I tried it later today. Maybe I'll make another video using this technique.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Medniex Cool I’ll go check that out in a bit

[@squishmusic]

Just an idea for a nicer (?) acid line. If you slow the 'record tempo' to something like 40bpm you could much easier punch-in almost steptime speed 16th notes; this would be a nicer pattern to then edit imo

[@squishmusic]

...of course it was better to run sequences into it from a QY10 (back then) :D

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Ha yeah I had one of those for a while, fun to use but damn they were a pain to edit things together 😄 Slowing down that much on the Pss is a good idea if it works for you but personally I find if I slow down too much I loose the rhythm completely and struggle to find my place

[@squishmusic]

@@ChrisLodyMusic havent tried but i figured at such a low tempo one doesnt need to feel the tempo just count the 16ths (so count 32note entried for a 2bar loop) ...and hit random notes. Much like I did with the 303 sequencer. :D

[@darxkai]

Getting the 580 for 25€ next week (The person who sells it said in the description, that its a keyboard for children because of the small keys. Little does she/he know... :D). Thought about getting the 480 for 40€, but it that would have been 2 hours of additional time on train. i am happy I waited for a better deal. Are there even any noticable differences between the 480 and the 580? Was not able to find out from a quick look into the manuals. Nice tutorial by the way ;)

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

darxkai Thanks. The only difference is a cosmetic change of colour and the presets are in a different order. That's it. 25€ is a good deal! Yeah they're often mistaken for toys so good find!

[@industrial_records]

Hello, I have a question. I'm considering buying a PSS-680 today, but I have a problem I can't find an answer to, can I use this MIDI-enabled keyboard in programs like "FL Studio", "Mixcraft" - to play instruments in the program?

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

You can yes. But you will need a way to connect the large round DIN midi sockets into your computer, which will either be via a midi to usb cable or an audio interface that has midi sockets on it

[@mickypoo4622]

What a great tutorial! I have a PSS 580 and I never knew it was capable of doing this sort or arrangement. Are the melody and chord settings you save in the buttons retained when the power is off so that you can use them again i.e do they use non-volatile storage? Are there any other settings that are retained in the same way? I'd be grateful for your advice.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Thanks. Unfortunately the memory is really unpredictable. It will sometimes retain the memory for quite a while after power off but sometimes looses everything immediately. The best thing to do is to back the memory up to a computer using a midi sysex dump and then you can load it back in at any time

[@mickypoo4622]

@@ChrisLodyMusic Thanks for the tip. I have the means to do a MIDI Sysex dump so that really helps. Much appreciated.

[@paulgoodtimes5168]

Wow! Great demonstration! Tell me can you loop a melody without the drums playing? Thanks!

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Thank you. Yes I’m sure you can. There’s buttons in the auto accompaniment section to turn off various parts. If I remember correctly you can turn of Rhythm here before you record the melody to memory to chord memory and it’ll play without drum, I think!

[@syn138]

After doing this, when I turned off the PSS-580, all the settings were initialized.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Yes sadly the memory on these machines is extremely unpredictable. Sometimes they will remember and sometimes not. Always best to make something and record it straight away, preferably with the keyboard plugged into the mains supply

The volume of my unit seems to be stuck on way-to-low. Any chance you might know a way to fix this? I feel like it was louder when I 1st got it, perhaps hit a setting I am not aware of. thank you for your tutorials new subscriber here.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Hi. There shouldn’t be any settings that would lower the sound long term as it will reset itself after a while if it’s not plugged in and switched off. Is it just lower through the speakers or over the headphone socket too?

[@RiversInTheDesert]

ChrisLody Thank you for the response, I figured it out, by holding "Melody vol" button and then pushing value + it raised the volume back up. But I was wondering if there was a reset button, so you told me that, and I appreciate it:)

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

Ah I see it was just the melody volume, glad it’s nothing serious. I’d quite like if it had a reset but unfortunately doesn’t as it’s a seemingly random length of time it takes to reset.

[@SevenDeMagnus]

So cool. Hi. I just found the PSS-480 in a kind of shed, missing a battery cover and power adapter (asia 220v). I'm not sure it's working coz' it may have been rained on. Where can you buy an original power adapter (could be 100v or 110v, I'll just glue it to a transformer) and original cover? Thanks. Btw, I wonder if this keyboard is good to modify to circuit bend? Is this model a toy by the way? Or is it used by professionals, like Roland. God bless, Proverbs 31

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

SevenDeMagnus Almost any 12v power supply with a positive centre connection will work as long as the plug fits so see what you can find in your country with those specs. The battery compartment will be almost impossible to find though to be honest. Yo’d have better luck finding one on another keyboard, though it wouldn’t be impossible to make one if you know anyone who’s good at crafting things. I’m not sure about mods and circuit bending it. I’ve done a bit of that myself but I’m happy with this one the way it is so I don’t want to risk breaking it. I wouldn’t say it’s considered to be a pro keyboard no, but it’s much better than a toy. So somewhere in between I’d say

[@Mac_Fleetwood]

Do you know how to send MIDI without the drums? I figured out how to play the chords memory via MIDI but the rhythm plays too.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

I’ve not tried this but I think you could probably just switch off the Rhythm button (on the left on the 480 and 580) and this will mute the drums. I think this is correct, mine is in the attic at the moment while we try to sell our house

[@Mac_Fleetwood]

No prob. Thanks for the info. You can actually manually press the Rhythm button to shut off the drums but you have to press it every bar.

[@ChrisLodyMusic]

It depends what the inputs on your mixer are but a guitar lead will do it if it fits, by which I mean a 1\4" to 1\4" mono cable. The output is mono apart from the drums so if you're just looking to connect it for synth that will do.
