Yamaha Tyros / PSR

Tyros series, PSR series (incl. PSR SX, PSR A5000)

The app sends the scale and transpose to the keyboard as SysEx.

Before you start: connect the keyboard to your phone (USB, Bluetooth or network MIDI) and select Yamaha Tyros / PSR in the app's keyboard list. Turn Local Control off on the keyboard.

1

Open the MIDI function

Press FUNCTION, then select MIDI.
2

Pick MIDI OFF and press EDIT

Choose the MIDI OFF template as a clean starting point and press EDIT.
3

Enable SysEx receive

On the System tab, set SYS/EX. Rx to ON.
4

Assign parts to channels

Open the RECEIVE tab and assign each PART to the MIDI A / USB 1 channel the app sends on, so notes reach the sounds you play (Main = Ch 1, Right 1 = Ch 2, etc.).
5

Save as a User setup

Press EXIT, open the USER tab, name the setup (for example "SSC") and SAVE.

Notes

Many Yamaha keyboards route MIDI In to the Song/sequencer by default; the Receive step above fixes that.
Choose "Yamaha PSR Series", "Yamaha PSR A5000" or "Yamaha Tyros" in the app. Turn Local Control off on the keyboard.
