About this manual

This document serves as a performance reference chart for the Yamaha GS1 and GS2 Voice Cards. It provides general instructions on achieving realistic sound by matching playing styles to instrument types, utilizing touch sensitivity, and experimenting with controls like ensemble, detune, and equalizers.

The guide includes detailed voice libraries for both the GS1 and GS2 models. These charts list specific voice classification numbers (e.g., A-2, B-4) alongside recommended playing techniques, such as using staccato touch for harpsichords or varying attack speed for brass instruments.
