PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep these precautions 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:
• 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.
• If the AC adaptor 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
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:
the power switch, disconnect the adaptor plug from the outlet, and have
the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
• Use the specified adaptor (PA-3B or an equivalent recommended by
Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument or overheating.
• Before cleaning the instrument, always remove the electric plug from the
outlet. Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which
may have accumulated on it.
• Do not place the AC adaptor 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.
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always
hold the plug itself and not the cord.
• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multipleconnector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause
overheating in the outlet.
• Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during
electrical storms.
• Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with the +/polarity markings. Failure to do so might result in overheating, fire, or
battery fluid leakage.
• Always replace all batteries at the same time. Do not use new batteries
together with old ones. Also, do not mix battery types, such as alkaline
batteries with manganese batteries, or batteries from different makers, or
different types of batteries from the same maker, since this can cause
overheating, fire, or battery fluid leakage.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not intended to be charged.
• If the instrument is not to be in use for a long time, remove the batteries
from it, in order to prevent possible fluid leakage from the battery.
• Keep batteries away from children.
• 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.
• 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 near other electrical products such as televisions, radios, or speakers, since this might cause interference which can
affect proper operation of the other products.
• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected adaptor and other cables.
• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint
thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
Also, 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.
• Use only the stand/rack specified for the instrument. When attaching the
stand or rack, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause
damage to the internal components or result in the instrument falling over.
• Do not operate the instrument 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 USER DATA
• Save all data to an external device such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer
MDF3, in order to help prevent the loss of important data due to a malfunction or user operating error.
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.
Make sure to discard used batteries according to local regulations.

Congratulations on your purchase of the Yamaha
PSR-270 PortaTone!
You now own a portable keyboard that combines advanced func-
tions, great sound and exceptional ease-of-use in a highly compact
package. Its outstanding features also make it a remarkably ex-
pressive 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 PSR-270 is a sophisticated yet easy-to-use keyboard
with the following features and functions:
Yamaha Education Suite
………………………………………… Pages 60-71
The PortaTone features the new Yamaha Education
Suite — a set of learning tools that utilize the latest
technology to make studying and practicing music
more fun and fulfilling than ever before!
The Yamaha Education Suite includes:
Chord Guide functions in the Style mode —
Smart and Dictionary — that make it exceptionally
easy to learn chords and chord relationships.
There’s also a powerful EZ Chord function that lets
you easily record and play back chord progressions.
• Smart lets you easily play harmonically “correct”
chord progressions for whatever key you specify. It’s
great for learning — and performing!
• Dictionary is a built-in “chord encyclopedia” that
teaches you how to play specific chords. You type
in the chord name, and the PortaTone shows you
which notes to play!
• EZ Chord is a powerful and simple way to program and play chord progressions. Record all the
chord changes you need for a song, then play back
the chords one after another by simply playing a
single key!
Portable Grand……………………….Page 24
The PortaTone also has a Portable Grand function for
realistic piano performance. Pressing the PORTABLE
GRAND button instantly calls up the stunningly
authentic “Stereo Sampled Piano” voice and configures
the entire PortaTone for optimum piano play. Special
Pianist styles — with piano-only accompaniment — are
also provided.
Other powerful features include:
• Exceptionally realistic and dynamic sounds with 100
voices, utilizing digital recordings of actual instruments.
• Dual voice and Split voice modes that let you layer two
voices together or assign two voices to separate sections of
the keyboard
• Four high-quality effects — Reverb, Chorus, DSP, and
Harmony — each with a variety of different types.
• 100 auto accompaniment styles, each with different
Intro, Main A and B, and Ending sections. All styles
(except for the Pianist styles) also have their own four Fillin patterns. The PortaTone also gives you convenient
control over accompaniment Styles — including Tempo
and independent Accompaniment Volume.
• Powerful song recording operations for recording and
playing back complete compositions (three User songs are
available). Up to six tracks can be recorded to a song,
including a special chord track for style accompaniment.
• One Touch Setting (OTS), for automatically calling up an
appropriate voice for playing with the selected style. Plus,
there are 16 User OTS memory spaces that let you save
your custom panel settings for instant recall.
• Touch response (with front panel on/off switch) for
maximum expressive level control over the voices. This
also works in conjunction with the Dynamic Filter, which
dynamically adjusts the timbre or tone of a voice according to your playing strength — just a like a real musical
instrument!
• Convenient footswitch control over various functions —
including sustain, start/stop, and more.
• GM (General MIDI) compatibility and full GM voice set.
• Large custom LCD (backlit) gives you easy, at-a-glance
confirmation of all important settings, as well as chord and
note indications.
• Comprehensive MIDI functions that let you integrate the
PortaTone into a MIDI music system, for sequence recording and other advanced applications.
• Built-in, high-quality stereo amplifier/speaker system.

SETTING UP
This section contains information about setting up your PortaTone for playing.
Make sure to read this section carefully before using the instrument.
POWER REQUIREMENTS
Although the PSR-270 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.
Never interrupt the power supply (e.g. remove the batteries or
unplug the AC adaptor) during any PSR-270 record operation!
Doing so can result in a loss of data.
Using an AC Power Adaptor
To connect your PortaTone to a wall socket, you
will need the optionally available Yamaha PA-3B
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 10-12V jack on the rear
panel of your PortaTone, and the other end to a
suitable electrical outlet.
• Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-3B 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-
270.
• Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the PSR-270,
or during electrical storms.
BATTERIES 1.5V x 6
■ 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.
• Never mix old and new batteries or different types of
batteries (e.g., alkaline and manganese).
• To prevent possible damage from battery leakage, remove
the batteries from the instrument if it is not to be used for a
long time.
TURNING ON THE POWER
With the AC power adaptor connected or with
batteries installed, simply press the power switch
until it locks in the ON position. When the
instrument is not in use, be sure to turn the
power off. (Press the switch again so that it
pops up.)
Using Batteries
■ Inserting Batteries
Turn the instrument upside-down and remove
the battery compartment lid. Insert six 1.5-volt
size “D” (SUM-1, R-20 or equivalent) batteries as
shown in the illustration, making sure that the
positive and negative terminals are properly
aligned, and replace the lid.
8
Even when the switch is in the “STANDBY” position, electricity
is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When
you are not using the PSR-270 for a long time, make sure you
unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet, and/or
remove the batteries from the instrument.

SETTING UP
ACCESSORY JACKS
■ Using Headphones
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
■ Connecting a Keyboard Amplifier or Stereo
System
Though the PortaTone is equipped with a builtin speaker system, you can also play it through
an external amplifier/speaker system. First,
make sure the PortaTone and any external
devices are turned off, then 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 rear panel PHONES/OUTPUT jack on the
PortaTone.
■ Using a Footswitch
This feature lets you use an optional footswitch
(Yamaha FC4 or FC5) to sustain the sound of the
voices, or control a variety of other functions.
(See page 91.) When this is used for sustain, the
footswitch functions the same way as a damper
pedal on an acoustic piano — press and hold
down the footswitch as you play the keyboard
to sustain the sound.
FOOT SWITCH
• Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to
the FOOT SWITCH jack before turning on the power.
• Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on.
Doing this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch,
resulting in reversed footswitch operation.
■ Using the MIDI Terminals
The PortaTone also
features MIDI termi-
MIDI instrument
nals, allowing you to
interface the
PortaTone with other
MIDI instruments and
devices. (For more
information, see
pages 20, 93.)

PANEL DISPLAY INDICATIONS
The PortaTone features a large multi-function display that shows all important
settings for the instrument. The section below briefly explains the various icons
and indications in the display.
The LCD’s backlight will gradually dim over a long period of use. When the display becomes dim or hard to read, contact the store
where you purchased the instrument or, Yamaha directly, to have the LCD replaced. A fee will be charged for replacement.

PLAYING VOICES — THE VOICE MODE
The Voice mode features 228 authentic voices (including 128 General MIDI
voices), plus 10 special drum kits — all of which have been created with
Yamaha’s sophisticated AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) tone generation system.
The Voice mode gives you many powerful and versatile tools for playing and
enhancing these Voices.
The voices are divided into various instrument
categories, all of which are printed on the panel
for convenience. For a complete list of the
available voices, see page 109.
The Voice mode is actually divided into three
separate modes: Main, Dual and Split. In the
Main Voice mode (see below), you can play a
single voice over the entire range of the keyboard. The Dual Voice mode (page 34) allows
you to “layer” two different voices together for
rich, complex sounds. The Split Voice mode
(page 36) lets you set up two different voices for
playing from separate sections of the keyboard.
Moreover, each mode features special effect
sections that let you enhance the sound of the
Voice or Voices. These include Reverb, Chorus,
and Harmony, as well as a “DSP” section that
provides miscellaneous effects such as tremolo,
echo, delay, distortion, equalization, and wah.
(See page 40.)
Other voice-related functions include Voice Set
(page 38), which lets you automatically call up
the ideal settings for each voice, and Touch
Sensitivity (page 38), which determines how the
voices respond to your playing technique.
The PortaTone includes special Drum Kit voices
— #101 — #110 — that let you play various drum
and percussion sounds from the keyboard.
(Refer to the Drum Kit Voice chart on page 30.)
Symbols are also printed above the keyboard,
conveniently indicating which sounds are played
from which keys.

SOUND EFFECTS
There are three ways to select voices: 1) directly entering the voice number
with the numeric keypad, 2) using the +/- keys to step up and down
through the voices, or 3) pressing the VOICE button to advance through
the voice numbers.
Using the numeric keypad
Enter the digits of the voice number as indicated on the panel. For example, to select voice #42, press “4” on the numeric keypad, then “2.”
All two-digit voice numbers
can be selected without
entering an initial “0.”
However, when selecting
voice numbers 1 — 23, the
PortaTone pauses briefly
before actually calling up
the voice. (This pause
allows for entering threedigit voice numbers, such as
“235.” Entering the
numbers “2” then “4”
immediately calls up voice
#24, since there are no
voices #240 or higher.)

If you want to immediately
call up voices #1 — #23,
enter one or two zeros
before the number; for
example, select voice #9 by
pressing “0,” “0,” then
“9.” Pressing only “0” does
not change the voice.
26
PLAYIN G VOICES — THE VO ICE MODE
Using the +/- keys
Press the + key to select the next voice number, and press the — key to
select the previous voice. Holding down either key continuously scrolls up
or down through the numbers. The +/- keys have a “wrap around” feature. For example, pressing the + key from voice #238 returns to voice #1.
Using the VOICE button
Press the VOICE button to select the next voice number. (This functions
exactly the same as the + button.)
3 Play the selected voice.
To change to another voice, repeat step 2 above.
Since either the Style or Song mode is active in the background (as indicated by the mode name in the display, without the rectangle), you can
also play styles or songs, respectively, in the Voice mode by simply pressing
the START/STOP button. The last selected style or song will be played.
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.
When you select a voice, the
PortaTone also automatically calls up various
settings that are appropriate for the voice. [This is
true when Voice Set
(Function #72, page 39) is
set to on — the default
setting.]
About Panel Voices and GM Voices
Keep in mind that the PortaTone has two separate sets of voices:
100 Panel voices and 128 GM (General MIDI) Voices. The GM
Voices can also be used for optimum playback of GM-compatible
song data. This means that any GM song data (played from a sequencer or other
MIDI device) will sound just as the composer or programmer intended.
When a GM voice is selected, the General MIDI icon appears at the top left of the
display.

Function Parameters — Main Voice
The Function parameters provide additional settings for the Main
voice. These settings are especially useful when using a second voice
in the Dual or Split modes, since they let you change or enhance the
sound of the Main voice separate from the Dual or Split voice. These
settings include:
• Volume
• Octave
• Pan
• Reverb Send Level
• Chorus Send Level
• DSP Effect Send Level

the voices (see page 28). You can use the numeric keypad to directly
enter the number, use the +/- keys to step up and down through the
