PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical
shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required
voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have
accumulated on it.
• Use only the supplied power cord/plug.
• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and
do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on
it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything
over it.
• Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or
modify them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. If it
should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it
inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
• Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet
conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill into
any openings.
• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
• Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit.
A burning item may fall over and cause a fire.
• If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a sudden
loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual smells or smoke
should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch,
disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected
by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage
to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold
the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.
• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used
for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector.
Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the
outlet.
• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or
heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to
prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal
components.
• Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment,
mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio
may generate noise.
• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally
fall over.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is
easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off
the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power
switch is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum
level. When you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug
the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

DDK-7 Owner’s Manual
• Do not place the instrument against a wall (allow at least 3 cm/one-inch from
the wall), since this can cause inadequate air circulation, and possibly result in
the instrument overheating.
• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the
power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all
components, set all volume levels to minimum. Also, be sure to set the volumes
of all components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume
controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.
• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners,
solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.
• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel
or keyboard. This could cause physical injury to you or others, damage to the
instrument or other property, or operational failure.
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might
discolor the panel or keyboard.
• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not
use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long period of time at a
high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing
loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a
physician.
Saving and backing up your data
• Always save data to a USB flash memory or other external media, in order to
help prevent the loss of important data due to a malfunction or user operating
error.
Backing up the external media
•To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that you
save your important data onto two external media.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or
modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Main Features
Wide Variety of Registration Menus page 21
The Registration Menu buttons feature a total of 288 Registrations, allowing you to instantly set up the
DDK-7 for playing your favorite type of music. The Registrations in Registration Menu are divided into six
basic categories for ease of selection. Moreover, you can edit any of the Registrations and customize them to fit
your own performance needs.
Richly textured, four-layer AWM Voices and High Quality Digital
Effects
pages 25
and 53
The DDK-7 contains a huge amount of exceptionally high-quality Voices – 415 altogether – created with the
AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) tone generation system. The authentic touch response keyboard lets you
play these Voices with all the expressiveness and control of an actual acoustic instrument. What’s more, there
are 183 different effect types in 15 categories that you can apply to each Voice section —letting you enhance
and even completely change the character of the Voices, without having to use the Voice Edit features.
Dynamic, Contemporary Rhythms and Auto Accompaniment page 61
The exceptionally of wide selection of 274 rhythms lets you choose exactly the rhythm you need in your
performance. Each rhythm contains 15 variations (sections) – such as Main, Fill In, Intro, Ending, and Break
– that you can easily switch while you play, to make your performance even more dynamic and professional.
Each rhythm has its own matching accompaniment divided into five instrument parts, providing basic
backing as well as embellishments.
Comprehensive input and output connectors ideal for live
performance
page 215
Since the DDK-7 is equipped with two types of AUX OUT jacks: MAIN and SUB, you can select outputs for
each part. This lets you add an external effect to a specific part, or adjust the volume balance among the parts
with an external mixer—allowing you to build up your own system and create just the sound you want.
Large, 6.5-inch TFT-LCD with Intuitive Touch Panel Operation page 13
This large LCD display not only lets you clearly see a wide selection of settings and parameters at almost any
angle, it also serves as a touch control panel — letting you intuitively make selections and adjust settings
simply by touching the screen! Once you touch a setting, you can even adjust it in finer detail if necessary with
the Data Control dial.

producers or composers originally intended.
The DDK-7 is compatible with the following formats.
“GM (General MIDI)” is one of the most common Voice allocation formats. “GM System
Level 2” is a standard specification that enhances the original “GM” and improves Song data
compatibility. It provides for increased polyphony, greater Voice selection, expanded Voice
parameters, and integrated effect processing.
XG is a major enhancement of the GM System Level 1 format, and was developed by Yamaha
specifically to provide more Voices and variations, as well as greater expressive control over
Voices and effects, and to ensure compatibility of data well into the future.
GS was developed by the Roland Corporation. In the same way as Yamaha XG, GS is a major
enhancement of the GM specifically to provide more Voices and Drum kits and their variations,
as well as greater expressive control over Voices and effects.
The Style File Format combines all of Yamaha’s auto accompaniment know-how into a single
unified format.

Quick Introductory Guide
Whether you are an advanced performer or have never touched an electronic keyboard in your life, we
recommend that you take the time to go through this basic section. It shows you in the simplest
possible manner how to start playing your DDK-7.
Connect the power cord.
First insert the plug of the power cable into the AC INLET on the DDK-7, then
plug the other end of the cable into the proper AC outlet on the wall.
Connect the speakers or headphones.
Since the DDK-7 has no built-in speakers, you will need to monitor the sound
of the instrument by using external equipment. Connect a set of headphones,
powered speakers, or other playback equipment as required.

Voices
The DDK-7 features hundreds of high quality Voices. Any of these Voices can be used on the
Upper Keyboard and Lower Keyboard. If you connect the Pedal Unit to the DDK-7, you can
use any of these voices also on the Pedalboard. Up to four Voice sections are available on
the Upper Keyboard for playing together in a layer, while the Lower Keyboard and
Pedalboard each have two Voice sections.
A total of 415 voices can be selected on the display which you can call up by pressing
the Voice section buttons on the front panel.
Voices for the Upper Keyboard
Up to four different Voice sections are available on the Upper Keyboard for playing
together: Upper Keyboard Voice 1, Upper Keyboard Voice 2, Lead Voice 1, and Lead
Voice 2. Voices for each section can be selected from the panel.

together: Lower Keyboard Voice 1 and Lower Keyboard Voice 2. Voices for each section
can be selected from the panel.

Pressing a Voice button once calls up the Voice Menu display. Pressing it a second
time calls up the Voice Condition display. Successive presses alternate between the
two displays.
When the Voice Condition display is shown, pressing [VOICE MENU] button on
the display also calls up the Voice Menu.
From the Voice Condition display, you can control Voice-related parameters such as
Pan, Effect, Volume, and so on. For more information on the Voice Condition
display, see page 42.
CAUTION
Turning the DDK-7 off
erases all panel settings
you have made.
If you wish to keep the
panel settings you have
made, save them to a USB
flash memory or other
external media before
turning the DDK-7 off
(page 94).
About the To Lower function
Voices selected for the Lead Voice 1, Pedal Voice 1, and Pedal Voice 2 sections can
also be played on the Lower Keyboard when the [TO LOWER] button in each
section is on. When [TO LOWER] is on, the Lead Voice and Pedal Voice cannot be
played on the Upper Keyboard and Pedalboard, respectively.
The To Lower function is not available in the Lead Voice 2 section.

About the Solo function
The Lead Voice 2 section features an exclusive Solo function. Solo lets you
instantly switch to a solo Lead Voice in the middle of your performance, muting
all other Upper Keyboard Voices. If you connect an optional Foot Pedal to the
DDK-7, you can control the solo function without taking your hands from the
keyboards.
Select the Voice that you wish to play solo in the Lead Voice
2 section.
In this condition, all the Voices for Upper Keyboard (Upper Keyboard
Voice 1 and 2, and Lead Voice 1 and 2) can be played.
Press the [SOLO] button in the Lead Voice 2 section.
This sets Solo to standby status.
Press the [UTILITY] button to call up the Utility Display.
Press the [F. PEDAL] button at the top right of the display to call up the
FOOT PEDAL Page.

Press the [SOLO] button in the display.
Select the [SOLO] button in the left side of the display if you are using the (1
VOLUME) of the FOOT PEDAL jacks, or select in the right side if you are
using (2 SUSTAIN).
The Solo function is assigned to the Foot Pedal, and the polarity is
selected automatically.
In this condition (Solo on), all Voices set to the Upper Keyboard except
for Lead Voice 2 are playable on the Upper Keyboard.
To temporarily turn Solo on as you play, press the Foot
Pedal and hold down.
In this condition, only the Lead Voice 2 is playable on the Upper Keyboard.
(All other voices are muted.) Each time you press the Foot Pedal (Solo on)
you can play only Lead Voice 2, and each time you release it (Solo off) you
can play all Voices except Lead Voice 2 on the Upper Keyboard.
Notes on using Solo
•Some Registration Menu settings reverse the polarity of the Foot Pedal for the
Solo function. In this condition, the situation described above is reversed. In
other words, each time you press the Foot Pedal you can play all Voices except
Lead Voice 2, and each time you release it you can play only Lead Voice 2 on the
Upper Keyboard. To return the polarity to its original setting, press the [-]
button in the display.
•Pressing the Foot Pedal while holding down a key will not turn Solo on for
that key. Solo will active when the next key is played after pressing the Foot
Pedal.
• Lead Voices 1 and 2 sound only the highest note if two or more keys are
played. However, in the Solo mode, Lead Voice 2 sounds for the last key
played.

Organ Flutes
The DDK-7 has an Organ Flutes feature that allows you to create your own organ Voices,
giving you access to an unlimited combination of organ sounds. With this function, you can
recreate all of the classic organ sounds by adjusting the flute footage levels and the
percussive sounds, just like on conventional organs. There are nine flute footage settings,
with three additional footage settings for the attack sound.
Press one of the Organ Flutes buttons (UPPER or LOWER).
The Flute Footage Levers appear on the display.
Press the ON/OFF button in the display to turn the Organ Flutes
function on by selecting “ON”.
To turn off the Organ Flutes function, press the same button a second time to
select “OFF”. The lamp of the [U. ORGAN FLUTES] or [L. ORGAN
FLUTES] button on the panel lights up when the Organ Flutes function is on.
The lamp turns off when the function is off.
Select the wave type for the Organ Flute Voice.
Selecting [SINE] button produces a clean, clear sound and selecting
[VINTAGE] produces a gritty, slightly distorted sound.

makes the keyboard response slower, creating a pipe organ effect.
3 MODE
Determines which notes in a held group of notes are given an attack sound.
This parameter is common to both Upper and Lower Organ Flute Voices.
FIRST: Only the first note played will have attack. All other notes played while
the first is held have no attack.
EACH: All notes played have an attack sound.
4 REVERB

Voice Controls and Effects
The DDK-7 is equipped with two general kinds of functions that can be used to change the
sound of the Voices: Voice Controls and Effects.
Each Voice has been given certain factory-preset effect settings to best enhance its sound.
However, if you wish, you can change the sound to suit your preferences by using the
controls and effects described in this section. All built-in effects are digital.
The chart below shows the various Voice controls and effects for the individual Voice
sections. Available functions are indicated by circles. The controls and effects are applied
differently according to the different types: independently for each Voice section,
independently for each keyboard or globally for the entire system.
✻
Priority is applied only for Lead Voice 2.

Voice Condition Display for each Voice has four pages that can be switched by pressing
[1] – [4] buttons at the top right of the display.
In this display, you can adjust the basic Voice controls, including panning, touch tone
and volume. The displays of the various Voice sections have slight differences in their
functions.

Determines the position of the Voice in the stereo image. Seven pan positions are
available.
2 TOUCH TONE
The Touch Tone function gives you expressive control over the volume and timbre of a
Voice. All Voices are provided with this expressive function, making it possible to
perfectly reproduce the subtle dynamic and tonal changes of actual instruments.
Two types of keyboard touch affect this function: Initial Touch and After Touch.
2 -1 INITIAL touch
Controls volume and timbre according to the velocity at which you play the
keys. The harder you play the keys, the greater the volume and the brighter the
timbre will become.
Higher settings make the change wider. Minimum setting produces no effect.
Range: 0 – 14
2 -2 AFTER touch
Controls volume and timbre according to the pressure you apply to the keys
after playing them.
The harder you press down on the keys, the greater the volume and the brighter
the timbre will become.
Higher settings make the change wider. Minimum setting produces no effect.

them.
The minimum setting produces no effect at all. Higher (positive) settings make
the pitch higher according to the pressure and lower (negative) settings make the
pitch lower. The setting of +14 or -14 results in the widest pitch change.
Range: -14 – +14
4 FEET
Determines the octave setting of the Voice, letting you use the Voice over a wide
register. There are three settings: 4', 8' and 16' (4' is highest and 16' is lowest). A 2'
setting is added to the Pedal Voice sections. PRESET is the original (factory) setting.
5 REVERB
Determines the amount of reverb applied to each Voice section. When the REVERB
control in the Reverb Page 1 is set to the minimum, the setting here will have no effect.
See page 47 for details.
6 BRILLIANCE
Adjustment of the Voice tone, brighter or mellower. Range is from -3 to +3. Higher
settings makes the voice tone brighter.
7 VOLUME
Fine adjustment of the Voice volume. See page 29 for more information.
8 PRIORITY (only for the Lead Voice 2)
Determines the mode of Lead Voice 2, Last or Top.
LAST: Only the last played key is sounded when two or more keys are played
simultaneously.
TOP: Only the highest note is sounded when two or more keys are played
simultaneously. When the Solo mode is on, Lead Voice 2 sounds according to
Last mode, regardless of the setting made here.
9 POLY (only for Pedal Voices)
Allows you to switch the pedal polyphonic mode on or off. Setting POLY to on
switches the normally monophonic pedal Voices to polyphonic play. This makes it
possible to play the Pedalboard in various expressive ways, such as playing legato or
playing intervals and chords.
Keep in mind that you cannot exceed the total maximum polyphony: 14 notes for all
sections, Upper, Lower and Pedal.

Sustain
The sustain effect, selectable for the each Voice section, causes Voices to gradually fade
out when the keys are released. The sustain on/off and sustain length settings are
independent for each Voice section, providing maximum expressive control.
The optional Foot Pedal can also be used to switch sustain on/off for voice sections
other than Pedal Voice 1 and 2.
To add sustain to the Voices and call up the Sustain page:
Press the SUSTAIN button, located to the left of the panel, to set the sustain. The

Rhythm Structure
Each rhythm is made up of “sections.” Since each section is a rhythmic variation of
the basic rhythm, you can use them to add “spice” to your performance and mix up
the beats while you are playing. You can freely change the section while the rhythm
is played back.
INTRO
This is used for the beginning of the song. There are three Intro sections that can be
selected with INTRO [1] – [3] buttons. When the Intro finishes playing, the
rhythm automatically shifts to the Main section.
MAIN
This is used for playing the main part of the song. There are four Main sections that
can be selected with MAIN/FILL IN [A] – [D] buttons. The rhythm pattern of
several measures repeats indefinitely.
FILL IN
This is designed for use as a temporary and regular rhythmic pattern to spice up a
repeating rhythm. There are four Fill In sections that can be played by pressing the
selected (lit) MAIN/FILL IN [A] – [D] buttons as desired. When one measure
pattern of Fill In finishes playing, the rhythm is automatically shifts to the Main
section.

pressing this button again stops the rhythm.
BREAK
This lets you add dynamic variations and breaks in the rhythm pattern. The Break
section is selected by pressing the [BREAK] button. When the one-measure Break
pattern finishes playing, the rhythm automatically shifts to the Main section.

This is used for the ending of the song. There are three Ending sections that can be
selected with the ENDING [1] – [3] buttons. When the ending is finished, the
rhythm automatically stops.

INTRO
Pressing one of the INTRO [1] – [3] buttons automatically adds
a short introduction before starting the actual (Main) rhythm.
First press one of the INTRO [1] – [3] buttons, then press the
[START] or [SYNCHRO START] button to actually start
the rhythm.
While the introduction is playing, the BAR/BEAT display
shows the countdown to the first measure of the pattern.
For example, if there is a four-measure lead-in for a pattern
in 4/4 time, the display at right appears:
ENDING
Pressing one of the ENDING [1] – [3] buttons automatically
adds an ending phrase before stopping the rhythm.
When you press the Ending button while rhythm is
playing back, the rhythm will automatically stop after the
ending phrase is played. You can have the ending gradually
slow down (ritardando) by pressing the ENDING button once again, while the ending
is playing.
To switch the rhythm sections:
You can change the rhythm section of the Main phrase by pressing the desired MAIN/
FILL IN [A] – [D] button. The selected section’s lamp (above the button) is lit.
To use the Fill In patterns:
As you play the DDK-7 along with the rhythm, occasionally press the selected MAIN/
FILL button as desired. The Fill In pattern (one measure) will be played and the
selected Fill In section’s lamp (above the button) flashes.
When you use the Auto Fill In function, Fill Ins will be played automatically. The Auto
Fill In function is set in the Rhythm Condition display.
Pressing the [RHYTHM] button on the panel again (or pressing the rhythm name of
the selected rhythm in the display again) calls up the Rhythm Condition Display.
When Auto Fill is set to ON in the left side of the display, the Fill In pattern is
automatically played whenever you switch the Main sections.
NOTE

pattern is playing, the Lower
Keyboard cannot be played.
NOTE
Pressing the ENDING [1]

embellishments when rhythms are used.
Accompaniment controls are selected from the Rhythm Menu and Rhythm Condition
display.
Select the desired rhythm name in the display.
At the bottom of the display, there are seven part buttons, such as Chord 1,
Chord 2, Pad, and so on. These parts, with the exception of Main Drum and
Add Drum, are Accompaniment parts.
Turn the desired parts on.
The Accompaniment consists of five parts, Chord 1, Chord 2, Pad, Phrase 1,
and Phrase 2, and each of them can be set to on or off by pressing corresponding
button in the display.
If you turn all the parts off, the Accompaniment does not sound.

strings and organ.
PHRASE 1/PHRASE 2:
These parts are used for various embellishments and riffs that enhance the song,
such as brass section accents and chord arpeggios.
Not all parts contain accompaniment data. Some parts may be empty depending
on the selected rhythm and rhythm section.

dimension to your performance by effectively putting a full backing band at your
disposal. There are three modes used for producing Automatic Accompaniment
patterns.
Before using the A.B.C. function, turn Pedal Poly off. If Pedal Poly is set to on, the bass
pattern of the A.B.C. will not sound.

SINGLE FINGER:
The Single Finger mode provides the fastest and easiest means to obtain many different
chord/bass combinations. You can produce major, minor, 7th, and minor 7th chords by
simply using one, or at most, two or three fingers to play the chords. The chord
produced will sound in the same octave regardless of where it is played on the Lower
keyboard.
Key of C
Major chords:
Press the root of the chord (the note that corresponds to the chord’s
name).
Minor chords:
Simultaneously press the root and any one black key to the left of it.
7th chords:
Simultaneously press the root and any one white key to the left of it.
Minor 7th chords:
Simultaneously press the root as well as any black key and any white
key to the left of it.
Playing single finger chords without the use of the rhythm lets you add full continuous
chords to your performance.
FINGERED CHORD:
The Fingered Chord mode automatically produces bass accompaniment for chords
played in the Lower keyboard. It allows you to use a wider range of chord types than in
the Single Finger mode. In the Fingered Chord mode, you play full chords while the
Auto Bass Chord function automatically selects the appropriate bass pattern. If you play
only one or two notes in the Lower keyboard, the appropriate chord will sound on the
basis of the previously played chord.
Key of C
Playing fingered chords without the use of the rhythm lets you add full continuous
chords to your performance.
CUSTOM A.B.C.:
The Custom A.B.C. mode is a slight variation on the Fingered Chord mode. It allows
you to determine what bass notes will be played in the accompaniment by playing a note
on the Pedalboard along with the chords you play in the Lower keyboard.

providing a different set of harmonics to accompany the melody played. Melody On
Chord can also be controlled with the Footpedal.

Registration Memory
Registration Memory
Registration Memory allows you to store virtually all the settings you make on the panel and
LCD, providing a convenient way to instantly change all Voice settings and rhythms while
you’re playing, with the simple touch of a single button on the Registration Memory panel.
The buttons are conveniently located between the Upper and Lower keyboards for easy
access while playing. Moreover, you can also recall the settings using the right footswitch
on the Pedal Unit, or optional Foot Pedal. All Registrations in Registration Memory can also
be saved to a USB flash memory or other external media.
Various types of basic Registrations have been programmed to the numbered Registration
Memory buttons, 1 – 16. When you record your own Registration settings to a numbered
button, the preset Registration for that button will be overwritten and erased as a result.
When you initialize the Registration Memory (page 95), the preset settings will be recalled
and your own Registration setting(s) will be erased and replaced with the factory defaults.
Newly created Registrations you make can be stored to the Registration Memory panel
buttons. All Registrations in Registration Memory can also be saved to a USB flash
memory or other external media for future recall.
Create your original Registration.
While holding down the [M.] (Memory) button in the Registration
Memory section, press the numbered button to which you wish
to save your Registration.
When the Registration is stored, the numbered button flashes momentarily.

Media Contents: Folders, Songs, and Files
Folders:
A folder is a storage location in the media, used to organize multiple songs in
groups. If you’ve saved hundreds of songs to a USB flash memory, it may be difficult
to find the desired song quickly. Organizing your songs in folders, with similar
songs grouped together (for example, according to genre or tempo), makes it easier
to find the songs you want.
Songs:
A song is the DDK-7 data for a piece of music, recorded to external media. A single
song can contain a variety of data, including the recorded performance,
Registrations, and so on.
Files:
A file is an element of data in a song. For example, a single song consists of various
files, such as Registration files and performance files. The following files are created
with the M.D.R. (The extension will not appear in the DDK-7 display. They will,
however, be displayed on a computer.)
In addition, one file (extension: .name) is automatically created in each folder for
organization/maintenance of the folder contents. It does not appear on the DDK-7
display.

Precautions when using the USB TO DEVICE terminal
This instrument features a built-in USB TO DEVICE terminal. When connecting a USB device to the terminal,
be sure to handle the USB device with care. Follow the important precautions below.
NOTE
For more information about the handling of USB devices, refer to the owner’s manual of the USB device.
■ Compatible USB devices
• USB storage devices (flash memory, floppy disk drive, hard
disk drive, etc.)
• USB hub
The instrument does not necessarily support all commercially
available USB devices. Yamaha cannot guarantee operation of
USB devices that you purchase. Before purchasing a USB device
for use with this instrument, please visit the following web page:
http://download.yamaha.com/
NOTE
Other USB devices such as a computer keyboard or mouse
cannot be used.
■ Connecting USB device
• When connecting a USB device to the USB TO DEVICE
terminal, make sure that the connector on the device is
appropriate and that it is connected in the proper direction.
• When connecting a USB cable, Use it less than 3 meters.
•If you intend to connect two or three devices at the same time
to a terminal, you should use a USB hub device. The USB hub
must be self-powered (with its own power source) and the
power must be on. Only one USB hub can be used. If an error
message appears while using the USB hub, disconnect the hub
from the instrument, then turn on the power of the instrument
and re-connect the USB hub.
• Though the instrument supports the USB 1.1 standard, you
can connect and use a USB 2.0 storage device with the
instrument. However, note that the transfer speed is that of
USB 1.1.
Using USB Storage Devices
By connecting the instrument to a USB storage device (external media), you can save data you’ve created to the
connected device, as well as read data from the connected device.
■ The number of USB storage device to be
used
Up to two USB storage devices can be connected to the USB TO
DEVICE terminal. (If necessary, use a USB hub. The number of
USB storage devices that can be used simultaneously with
musical instruments even when a USB hub is used is a maximum
of two.)
■ Formatting USB storage media
When a USB storage device is connected or media is inserted, a
message may appear prompting you to format the device/ media.
If so, execute the Format operation (page 112).
The format operation overwrites any previously existing
data. Make sure that the media you are formatting does not
contain important data. Proceed with caution, especially
when connecting multiple USB storage media.
■ To protect your data (write-protect)
To prevent important data from being inadvertently erased, apply
the write-protect provided with each storage device or media. If
you are saving data to the USB storage device, make sure to
disable write-protect.
■ Connecting/removing USB storage device
Before removing the media from the device, make sure that the
instrument is not accessing data (such as in the Save, Copy and
Delete operations).
Avoid frequently turning the power on/off to the USB
storage device, or connecting/disconnecting the device too
often. Doing so may result in the operation of the
instrument “freezing” or hanging up. While the instrument
is accessing data (such as during Save, Copy, Delete, and
Format operations) or is mounting the USB storage device
(shortly after the connection), do NOT unplug the USB
connector, do NOT remove the media from the device, and
do NOT turn the power off to either device. Doing so may
corrupt the data on either or both devices.

Music Data Recorder (M.D.R.)

If you find that you are unable to use new, blank external media (such as floppy disks or
USB flash memory) or old one that have been used with other devices, you may need
to format them. Formatting erases all the data in the media and makes it ready to
record. The data erased by formatting will be lost permanently. Check whether or not
the media contains any important data you wish to keep before executing the
operation. Proceed with caution, especially when connecting multiple USB storage
media.
Connect the media to the USB TO DEVICE terminal.
Press the [TOOLS] button at the top right of the display to call up
the TOOLS Page.
Press the button repeatedly if necessary until the button
is grayed out.
Select the desired media you want to format.
To format a USB flash memory, select [USB XX] (USB 01, USB 02, etc.). To
format a floppy disk, select [USB-FD01].
Press the [FORMAT] button in the display.
A message appears, prompting confirmation of the operation. Select
[FORMAT] to format the media, or [CANCEL] to abort the operation.

Re-recording (Retry)
If you make a mistake during recording, you can re-record the song from the
beginning.
Press the [I] (Record) button while the song is still running.
This automatically stops recording and returns you to the starting point of the
song.
Press the [F] (Play) or [CUSTOM PLAY] button to begin
rerecording the song.
Re-recording starts from the beginning of the song and replaces the previously
recorded performance with the newly recorded performance.
Recording each part separately
You can also record the parts of your performance independently. This function lets
you record Keyboard Percussion and performance control data, such as Registration
changes and expression pedal operation, separately from the other parts of the song.
Even Keyboard Percussion and Lead Voice 1 Voices can be recorded separately, though,
the Lead Voice 2 Voices will be included in the performance data of the Upper
Keyboard. The following instruction is an example: First, record the chords and bass to
the song using the Lower and Pedalboard, and then record the melody using the Upper
Keyboard.
Follow steps 1 – 3 on page 117 to call up the Rec Standby
display.
Select the parts for recording.
Each pressing of a part button switches the status: PLAY, OFF, and REC.
PLAY: Playback the parts that have been recorded.
OFF: Recording or playback is not active.
REC: Records the part.
If you set the Upper part to “REC,” the performance on the Upper Keyboard
(including Lead Voice 1 Voices) is recorded. Setting Lead to “REC,” however,
records only the Lead Voice 1 Voices. You cannot set both Upper and Lead to
“REC” at the same time; neither can the Lower and Keyboard Percussion parts
be recorded at the same time.

About Protected Songs
If you buy or download the song data, it may be protected so that you cannot delete
or copy, in order to prevent accidental erasure or protect copyright. This is
“Protected Song.” Protected songs can be saved to a Yamaha-confirmed USB flash
memory device with ID.
The protected song can be played back as well as the song you created, but it cannot
be converted to XG format, or EL format. It is not possible to edit the Registration
data in the protected song, nor to overwrite the performance data. If you want to
edit the protected song, first copy it within one media/folder, then edit the copy.
(You cannot copy to another media/folder.) The copy song (called “protected edit
song”) is available only when the original song (called “protected original song”)
exists in the same folder. Be careful not to delete the protected original song.
To move the protected song in a USB flash memory with a computer, you’ll
need to use the Musicsoft Downloader application. If you move the song
without Musicsoft Downloader, the song cannot be played back. Musicsoft
Downloader can be obtained at the following Internet address: http://
download.yamaha.com/

Converting from EL format
You can convert the songs in the floppy disk created with an EL-series Electone, such as
the EL-900, to the DDK-7 format, and save it to a USB flash memory confirmed by
Yamaha. You’ll need to install the optional floppy disk drive such as UD-FD01.
Depending on the original song, the sound or tempo of the converted song may differ
from the original song, or the Next Song function of the original song may not be
effective.
Insert the floppy disk that contains the song you want to convert
from EL format, then select the source song.
For details on selecting a song, see page 113.
In the TOOLS Page, press the [CONVERT] button.
A message appears confirming if you want to convert from the EL format to the
DDK-7 format.
Press the [CONVERT FROM EL] button in the display, then
specify the destination for the converted song.
To use the converted song on the DDK-7, the destination must be USB flash
memory.
Press the [EXECUTE] button in the display to start conversion.
If the remaining memory of the USB flash memory is insufficient, conversion
cannot be executed. (An error message appears and the operation is cancelled.)
NOTE
When you convert the
protected EL data to DDK-7
format, set the write-protect
tab of the EL disk to the
“overwrite” position (tab
closed).
NOTE
When converting a
protected EL song to the
DDK-7 format, make sure to
use a Yamaha-confirmed
USB flash memory device
with ID.

Voice Edit
This DDK-7 has a Voice Edit feature that allows you to create your own Voices.
We suggest that you read through the Voice Structure below at first to get a firmer
understanding of the Voices. Then go through the editing steps, reading Editing a Voice on
page 147 for editing of an AWM Voice.
The internal structure of the Voices of this DDK-7 is explained below.
AWM Voice structure
AWM Voices consist of up to four recorded samples of a real instrument.
Each waveform, referred to as an “Element,” can be edited, by changing the level
(volume), filter settings, and so on. A single Voice contains four boxes (AWM1 –
AWM4) in which the Elements are put. If a Voice consists of less than three Elements,
some boxes are empty. For example, Strings 1 consists of two Elements (as shown).
You can add Elements from other Voices – Brass, for example – if a box (AWM3 and/or
AWM4) is empty. This allows you to create your own original ensemble sounds. In the
Voice Edit function, you can edit not only each Element, but also assemble some
Elements from other Voices.

Editing an AWM Voice
You can edit an AWM Voice on the AWM Page and LAYER Page in the Voice Edit
display. In the AWM Page, the tonal balance of the entire Voice can be corrected by
some EQ parameters. In the LAYER Page, you can make detailed edits to each
Element.
1 Element On/Off switches
The [AWM1] – [AWM4] buttons indicate the Elements which make up the selected
Voice. You can mute any of the Elements by simply pressing the corresponding button.
Pressing the button again cancels the mute.
2 VOICE/ELEMENT
Indicates the Voice/Element currently being edited. For example, the screen above
shows that Element 1 of Accordion 1 is assigned to AWM1, the Element 2 of
Accordion 1 is assigned to AWM2 and no Voice is assigned to AWM3 and AWM4. You
can also call up another Element from another Voice and replace the currently selected
Element with it. Pressing the VOICE or ELEMENT button in the display calls up the
Voice or Element menu, from which you can select the desired Voice/Element (usually
Element 1). If you change Voice, the Element will automatically change to the first
Element of the Voice (usually Element 1).
3 EQ LOW FREQ./EQ LOW GAIN
Sets the frequency and gain (level) of the low frequency band. The EQ LOW FREQ.
slider sets the desired frequency band over a range of 32 Hz – 2.0 kHz. The EQ LOW
GAIN slider sets the level for the frequency band (specified by the EQ LOW FREQ.
slider) over a range of -12 dB – +12 dB.
4 EQ HIGH FREQ./EQ HIGH GAIN
Sets the frequency and gain (level) of the high frequency band. The EQ HIGH FREQ.
slider sets the desired frequency band over a range of 500 Hz – 16.0 kHz. The EQ
HIGH GAIN slider sets the level for the frequency band (specified by the EQ HIGH
FREQ. slider) over a range of -12 dB – +12 dB.

The [AWM1] – [AWM4] buttons indicate the Elements which make up the selected
Voice. You can mute any of the Elements by simply pressing the corresponding button.
Pressing the button again cancels the mute. Muting all other Elements except for the
one you are editing lets you clearly hear that single Element for ease in editing. Note
that when some Elements are muted, playing the keyboard in certain key areas or with
certain velocities may result in no sound.
3 Display switch buttons
The LAYER Page contains three pages. The buttons are used to switch among
them.
EQ (Equalizer)
Usually an equalizer is used to correct the sound output from amps or speakers to
match the special character of the room. The sound is divided into several frequency
bands, then by raising or lowering the level for each band, the correction is made.
This DDK-7 has a two-band (high and low) digital equalizer that lets you adjust the
overall sound according to the type of music you play — classical music being more
refined and soft, pop music more crisp, and rock music more dynamic.

3 ATTACK RATE
Determines how quickly the Element will reach its maximum level after the key is
played. Higher values produce a faster attack.
Range: 0 – 127
4 RELEASE RATE
Determines how much time it takes for the level to reach 0 after the key is released.
Higher values make the time shorter.
Range: 1 – 127
5 CUTOFF FREQ.
Determines the cutoff frequency of the filter.
Range: 9600 – 24000 cent
6 RESONANCE
Determines the amount of resonance (harmonic emphasis) applied to the signal at the
cutoff frequency. Some Elements are not affected by this parameter.
Range: 16 – 140
Filter — Cutoff frequency and Resonance
Filter modifies the tone by cutting the output of a specific frequency portion of the
sound. This DDK-7 is equipped with a low pass filter, which passes only those
signals below the cutoff frequency and cuts signals above the cutoff frequency.
You can produce a relatively bright or darker sound by setting the cutoff frequency.
Resonance is a parameter that boosts the level of the signal in the area of the cutoff
frequency. By emphasizing the overtones in this area, this can produce a distinctive
“peaky” tone.

Higher values result in a greater amount of pitch change. For the minimum setting, the
pitch does not change.
Range: 0 – 400
4 LFO FMD (Frequency Modulation Depth)
Determines the amount by which the LFO waveform varies the filter cutoff frequency.
Higher values result in a greater amount of frequency change. For the minimum
setting, the frequency does not change.
Range: 0 – 4800 cent
5 LFO AMD (Amplitude Modulation Depth)
Determines the amount by which the LFO waveform varies the amplitude of the
sound. Higher values result in a greater amount of amplitude change. For the
minimum setting, the amplitude does not change.
Range: 0 – 128
When playing a User Voice you have created using the LFO parameters (above), set the
Vibrato setting in the Voice Condition display to “Preset,” not “User.” If Vibrato is set
to “User” and the Vibrato parameters (depth and/or speed) are set fairly high, you may
not be able to hear the effect of the LFO.

Step Write and Real Time Write
There are two different methods you can use to program rhythms: Step Write and Real
Time Write.
Step Write allows you to enter percussion sounds as individual note values. As a
method, it is very similar to writing down the notes on a sheet of music paper; each note
is entered one at a time, and though you can hear each individual note entered, you
cannot actually hear the pattern playing as you create it. Step Write is good for precision
and for entering percussion sounds whose note placement and rhythmic value has been
determined, such as a bass drum that plays every beat in a measure.
Real Time Write on the other hand, is similar to using a multi-track tape recorder; you
can hear previously recorded parts of the pattern as you record new parts on top. Real
Time Write is best for capturing the “feel” of a rhythm, because it allows you to actually
play the pattern as you are creating it.
Each method has its own advantages and uses. Which method you use depends partly
on the type of rhythm you intend to create and partly on your own personal preference.
You can switch between the two methods in editing to create a single rhythm by the use
of both methods. This would come handy, for example, in programming the basic beats
of a rhythm with Step Write, then using Real Time Write to add percussion accents and
embellishments.
Which mode of the operation is selected depends on the play status of the rhythm. If
the rhythm is stopped, Step Write is automatically selected. If the rhythm is playing,
Real Time Write is selected. See the instructions below for Step Write, and page 169 for
Real Time Write.

About Quantize
The Quantize function is a process of rounding off timing or duration values, so
that each note plays with precise timing. You can select nine types of Quantize
value.
With Step Write
It allows you to automatically correct the length (duration) and timing of each note
you enter.
Steps Depending on the Quantize Values
With Real Time Write
It allows you to automatically correct the timing of the notes you play, according to
the specified Quantize resolution. No correction occurs when you select FREE.
Generally, you should set Quantize to be the same as the shortest note you intend to
play.

Enter the Rhythmic Chord pattern.
The methods for entering the Rhythmic Chord pattern are the same as those for
entering the rhythm pattern. Any key you press sounds a C major triad chord
(C, E, and G). For information on Step Write, see page 163; for information on
Real Time Write, see page 169.
You can also edit the entered Rhythmic Chord pattern using the same method as in
“Editing Entered Percussion Notes” (page 164). To change the gate time of the notes of
the Rhythmic Chord pattern, follow the instructions below.
Gate time determines the actual length of time a note sounds. For example, a
quarter note is sometimes played as tenuto (long length) and sometimes played as
staccato (short length).
Since 1 beat is made up of 480 clocks, a quarter note played tenuto may have a gate
time between 450 – 470, and a staccato quarter note may be about 240.

After saving the Rhythm, be sure to quit Rhythm Pattern Program (page 181) before
turning the power off. Turning off the DDK-7 without quitting Rhythm Pattern
Program erases the User Rhythm you have created.
Remaining Memory (amount of memory available for storing rhythms) is shown on
the display as a percentage.
When the pattern cannot be saved because of lack of available memory space, a
“Data full” message appears. Return to the previous page by pressing [OK] in this
case.
You should periodically save your rhythm as you are creating it and check the
amount of remaining memory. If the rhythm currently being edited cannot be saved
because of a lack of memory space, erase some of the less necessary percussion
sounds with the [CLEAR] button in the INPUT Page, and try saving the pattern
again.
Confirming rhythm patterns before saving
The rhythm pattern you have created will be saved with 15 sections collectively into
one rhythm. Before saving, we recommend that you confirm the contents of each
section.
Example: When saving the Main A and Main B sections you have created
into one user rhythm
First select “Main A” by using the [SECTION] button on the SETTING Page,
then press the [START] button on the panel. This lets you hear the Main A pattern
you have created. Confirm that the rhythm pattern is what you want to save as
Main A. Next, select “Main B” by using the [SECTION] button, then play it back
and confirm that this is what you want to save as Main B.
If the Main A and/or Main B patterns contain undesired data or no data, create the
desired data by using the Assemble function (page 160).
After confirming the desired section (Main A and Main B here), we recommend
that you confirm that all other sections contain no data. If unnecessary data is
contained in some sections which you don’t want to save, delete that unnecessary
data. This can reduce the data size of the user rhythm.

About file types that can be loaded to the DDK-7
This DDK-7 is compatible with Style File Format data. The
Style File Format (SFF) is Yamaha’s original style data format,
which uses a unique conversion system to provide high-
quality automatic accompaniment based on a wide range of
chord types. In this format, each rhythm pattern (called a
“style”) is made up of fifteen sections (Intro 1 – 3, Main A – D, Fill In A – D, Break,
Ending 1 – 3) as rhythm pattern variations. Each of these fifteen sections in turn has
eight different parts, made up of MIDI sequence data.
You can load any patterns (styles) which have been created by an SFF-compatible
instrument. Instruments compatible with SFF have the Style File Logo on the
panel.

Rhythm Program
With the Rhythm Sequence Program function, you can string together any of the
DDK-7’s existing rhythms and the rhythms of your own creation together to make
complete rhythm compositions.
You can save four rhythm compositions (each can contain up to 140 bars) to the
Sequence buttons on the panel for future recall. Two or more rhythm compositions can
be played back in succession, letting you divide a song into parts and play back the
rhythm data as desired. Here are a couple of example applications:
• When you want to play more than two songs in a medley, save the rhythm
composition for each song to a separate sequence button. You can then recall each
desired song by simply pressing the corresponding sequence button to which the
song is saved.
• When you want to practice a song in separate sections (for example, separately
practicing the verse, chorus and bridge), divide the song into the relevant parts.
For example, save the intro part to the [SEQ. 1] button, the main chorus part to the
[SEQ. 2] button, the ending to the [SEQ. 3] button, and so on. Then, recall the
desired part simply by pressing the appropriate sequence button. You can also play
through a song by recalling all the parts in sequence.
Selecting a Sequence
There are two ways to program a rhythm sequence: copying an existing sequence that is
similar to the sequence you want to create, or creating your own sequence from scratch.
Press the [PROGRAM] button in the DISPLAY SELECT section.
Any rhythm currently playing will automatically be stopped when you call up
the Rhythm Sequence Program function.

This section explains what MIDI is, and what it can do, as well as how you can use
MIDI on your DDK-7.
What is MIDI?
No doubt you have heard the terms “acoustic instrument” and “digital instrument.”
In the world today, these are the two main categories of instruments. Let’s consider a
grand piano and a classical guitar as representative acoustic instruments. They are easy
to understand. With the piano, you strike a key, and a hammer inside hits some strings
and plays a note. With the guitar, you directly pluck a string and the note sounds. But
how does a digital instrument go about playing a note?
As shown in the illustration above, in an electronic instrument the sampled note
(previously recorded note) stored in the tone generator section (electronic circuit) is
played based on information received from the keyboard, and output through the
speakers. So then what is the information from the keyboard that becomes the basis for
note production?
For example, let’s say you play a “C” quarter note using the grand piano sound on the
keyboard. Unlike an acoustic instrument that puts out a resonated note, the electronic
instrument puts out information from the keyboard such as “with what Voice,” “with
which key,” “about how strong,” “when was it pressed” and “when was it released.”
Then each piece of information is changed into a number value and sent to the tone
generator. Using these numbers as a basis, the tone generator plays the stored sampled
note.
Example of Keyboard Information
As described above, your keyboard performance and panel operations such as Voice
selection are handled as MIDI events. All rhythm-related data – including rhythm
patterns, auto accompaniment patterns, Rhythm Sequences, etc. – also consist of
MIDI messages.

MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) allows electronic musical instruments to
communicate with each other, by sending and receiving compatible Note, Control
Change, Program Change and various other types of MIDI data, or messages.
MIDI Messages of the DDK-7
MIDI messages can be divided into two groups: the Channel Messages and System
Messages. Channel Messages consist of data related to the performance on the
keyboard for a specific channel. System Messages consist of data that allows several
MIDI devices to communicate with each other.
Channel Messages
Each time you play the keyboard on the DDK-7, channel messages (indicating which
keys are played and how strongly) are transmitted via a specific channel. Similarly, the
DDK-7 can be played remotely when receiving this data from an external keyboard.
Note On: Indicates which keys are played with the note numbers 0 through 127.
The reception note range is C-2 (0) – G8 (127), C3 = 60.
Note Off: Generated when a key is released.
Velocity: Indicates how strongly the key is played. The range is 1 – 127.
For more detailed information, see MIDI Data Format on page 240 and MIDI
Implementation Chart on page 253.
• Program Change
Program Change messages allow you to change Voices in the middle of a song. With
these messages you can change the Registrations of the DDK-7. For more detailed
information, see MIDI Data Format on page 240 and MIDI Implementation Chart on
page 253.
• Control Change
Control Change Messages let you select Voice banks, control the volume, panning,
modulation, portamento time, brightness and various other sound parameters, through
specific Control Change numbers.
For more detailed information on the Control Change messages available on the DDK-
7, see MIDI Data Format on page 240 and MIDI Implementation Chart on page 253.
System Messages
• System Exclusive Messages
System Exclusive messages are used to exchange the system and Voice/Registration
data.
DDK-7 Owner’s Manual

Connections
12
MIDI Channels
MIDI data is assigned to one of sixteen MIDI channels. Using these channels, 1 – 16,
the performance data for sixteen different instrument parts can be simultaneously sent
over one MIDI cable.
Think of the MIDI channels as TV channels. Each TV station transmits its broadcasts
over a specific channel. Your home TV set receives many different programs
simultaneously from several TV stations and you select the appropriate channel to
watch the desired program.
MIDI operates on the same basic principle. The transmitting instrument sends MIDI
data on a specific MIDI channel (MIDI Transmit Channel) via a single MIDI cable to
the receiving instrument. If the receiving instrument’s MIDI channel (MIDI Receive
Channel) matches the Transmit Channel, the receiving instrument will sound
according to the data sent by the transmitting instrument.
The receive channel of the DDK-7 is fixed at channel 1 for the Upper Keyboard,
channel 2 for the Lower Keyboard, and channel 3 for the Pedalboard. This means that
when you are using another MIDI device to play the DDK-7’s Voices, you must set the
MIDI transmit channel(s) of the connected device to match the receive channel(s) of
the DDK-7. You can select the transmit channel for each keyboard (Upper, Lower and
Pedal) from channels 1 – 16. See page 230 for more information.

Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Cause and Solution
GENERAL OPERATION
The sound is not heard for about 10 seconds after
turning the power on.
This is normal; the DDK-7 takes a while to start up.
A cracking noise is sometimes heard. Noise may be produced when either an electrical appliance is turned on or an
electric power tool (such as drill) is used in the proximity of the DDK-7. If this
occurs, plug the DDK-7 into an electrical outlet located as far as possible from
the device that seems to be the source of the problem.
Interference from radio, TV, or other sources occurs. This is caused by the proximity of a high-power broadcasting station, an
amateur ham radio setup or a mobile phone.
The sound of the DDK-7 causes surrounding objects
to resonate.
Because the DDK-7 is capable of producing powerful bass sounds,
resonance may be caused in surrounding objects, such as cabinets or glass
windows. To avoid this, relocate the objects or lower the DDK-7’s volume.
In the LCD display, there are some black points (unlit)
or white points (always lit).
Unfortunately, this is a common characteristic of TFT-LCDs.
The sound is too small even when the volume is set to
its maximum.
• The Master Volume may be set around the minimum position. Turn it
clockwise.
• The Expression Pedal or Foot Pedal may not be pressed down. Press it
down with your toe.
Foot Pedals has no effect. “OFF” is selected in the Foot Pedal display. Select function to assign it to the
Foot Pedal. (page 203)
The DDK-7 panel does not function normally or the
content of the memorized data has changed.
This happens very rarely. Occasionally, power surges and spikes due to
electrical storms or other reasons may cause the DDK-7 to malfunction and/or
alter the contents of memorized data. If this happens, perform the Factory Set
operation to reset the DDK-7 (page 24).
The Pedal Unit does not work. A cable of the Pedal Unit is disconnected. Make sure that power is OFF when
connecting or disconnecting the pedal.
Some parts cannot be heard from the Headphones or
an external speakers.
The parts are assigned to AUX OUT SUB jacks. If you want to hear all parts
from Headphones, select AUX OUT MAIN jacks for all parts. (page 220) If you
want to hear all parts from an external speakers, use the output from the mixer.

Appendix
DDK-7 Owner’s Manual

VOICES/RHYTHMS
The pitch may sound excessively high on the
Pedalboard and low in the higher registers of the
Lower and Upper keyboards.
This may occur when you compare the DDK-7’s sounds with that of a piano.
Because of the difference of the harmonics structure, the tuning system of the
DDK-7 is different from the piano in the higher and lower ranges.
Some of the Voices may contain cracking and/or noisy
sounds.
You may find these mainly in the wind instrument Voices. These are purposely
added effects to the Voices to reproduce the characteristics of the wind
instruments such as the pipe vibrations, breath noises and squeaks.
When too many keys are pressed, not all of the notes
sound.
Total polyphonic capacity (notes sounding for both Upper and Lower
Keyboards) is 14 notes. When you turn the Pedal Polyphonic mode to on, the
total is 14 for all keyboards, Upper, Lower and Pedalboard.
Only one sound is heard when two notes of the Lead
or Pedal Voices are simultaneously played.
For practical performance reasons, the DDK-7 has been designed so that
only one note of the Lead or Pedal Voices can be played at a time. If you want,
the pedal Voice can be set to polyphonic mode (page 43).
The Pedal Voices do not sound, even though the
volume is properly set.
• The Single Finger or Fingered Chord mode of Auto Bass Chord is on. Turn
off the mode in the display (page 72).
• TO LOWER buttons in the Pedal Voice sections are turned on. Turn the
function off (page 30).
When selecting a Voice or rhythm, the Voice or rhythm
title at the top of the LCD does not match the selected
Voice or rhythm.
The currently assigned Voice or rhythm is displayed at the top of the LCD, and
remains until another Voice or rhythm has been selected.
When keys are pressed, the sounds of percussion
instruments are also heard.
The Keyboard Percussion function has been turned on. When not using the
function, be sure to turn it off (page 75).
Even though a User button’s rhythm has been
selected and started, the pattern does not sound.
Since the User buttons contain User rhythms, no rhythm will sound if a pattern
has not been saved to the selected User button.
EFFECTS
The Touch Tone function does not operate. Adjust the Touch Tone settings in the Voice Condition display (page 42).
The Reverb effect is not applied to the desired Voice
sections, even when the total Reverb depth on the
panel is increased.
Increase the Reverb depth for the desired Voice sections in Reverb Display
Pages 2 – 3.
The Rotary Speaker effect cannot be heard, even
when the [ROTARY SP SPEED] button in the DISPLAY
SELECT section is on.
Rotary Speaker must be selected first in Voice Condition display Pages 3 and/
or 4 (for panel Voices), or in the Organ Flute Voices ATTACK/VOLUME Page
(for Organ Flute Voices).
ACCOMPANIMENT
The pitch in the Single Finger mode does not change,
even when pressing different keys of the keyboard.
Single Finger mode will only produce notes when played within a fixed octave
interval on the Lower keyboard. If notes with the same letter name are pressed
outside of that range, the chords that are sounded will share the same pitch.
While an Intro/Ending pattern is automatically playing,
the Lower keyboard does not produce any sound,
even when the keys are played.
Since the Accompaniment chords play automatically one after another, the
Lower keyboard is designed not to produce any sound during the playback of
an Intro/Ending pattern.
The Accompaniment cannot be heard even when an
appropriate Accompaniment type is selected and the
rhythm has been started.
• The Accompaniment volume may have been set to 0. Be sure to raise the
Accompaniment volume in the Rhythm Condition display (page 72).
• All Accompaniment parts may be set to off (mute). Set the desired part on
(page 71).
The harmony notes of the Melody On Chord function
cannot be heard.
The Upper keyboard has been set to sound only Lead Voices. Increase the
volume of the Upper Keyboard Voices.
The bass phrase of the Auto Bass Cord cannot be
heard.
The pedal polyphonic mode may be set to on. Turn it off in the Voice Condition
display (page 43).
REGISTRATION MEMORY
Certain functions have not been memorized to
Registration Memory.
Some functions cannot be memorized. Refer to page 91.

VOICE EDITING
During Voice editing, the specified Voice isn’t heard,
even when the keyboard is played.
• The Element is turned to mute or its level is set to minimum. Turn it to on or
increase the volume.
•You may have played keys outside the range of Note Limit. Play only keys
within the Note Limit range.
An error message appears while the Voice name is
entered.
Voice name capacity is 16 characters. Delete the unnecessary letters or
spaces.
RHYTHM PROGRAM
During use of the Rhythm Pattern Program, no sound
is produced even when you play a certain percussion
sound.
If percussion sounds have been recorded while memory is full, no
subsequently selected instruments can be heard or recorded. If necessary,
erase some of the less necessary percussion sounds and play again.
MUSIC DATA RECORDER
Recording or playback cannot be performed. • The part buttons in the Rec Standby display or Playing display may have
been turned off. Turn the desired part to REC or PLAY.
• The performance data is too large. The maximum limit for recording
performance data is 1 MB.
• The media is write-protected. Cancel the write-protect.
Recording is stopped before the performance is
finished.
• The amount of recorded data on the media is close to the maximum limit.
Either use another media or delete the data of unnecessary songs.
• When you overwrite the song, the length of a subsequently recorded part
cannot exceed the length of the previously recorded parts. Delete the
previously recorded song, then record again (page 139).
• The performance data is too large. The maximum limit for recording
performance data is 1 MB.
An error message appears while entering a folder
name or song name.
• The song/folder name is too long. The capacity is 50 letters.
• The song/folder name may be an invalid name. Refer to page 122.
• The path name is too long. The capacity of the path name is 234 letters.
Reduce the layer or shorten the song/folder name to shorten the path.
The rhythm does not start at the beginning of a
recording, or stops in the middle of the performance.
The M.D.R. is designed so that the rhythm cannot be started at the very
beginning of a recording. If you wish to use the rhythm, start it after the time
indicator appears in the display.
The floppy disk cannot be formatted when you want to
format an unformatted disk.
Recognizing an unformatted disk takes a few seconds after it is inserted.
Wait about 30 seconds, then try to format again.
The notes of the recording are “stuck” and sound
continuously.
During playback, you may have removed the USB flash memory or floppy
disk. Whenever you wish to stop playback, always press the [J] (Stop)
button before removing the media.
