As I mentioned in my other post I have had my unit for a good while now, one of my early frustrations with it was that each layer was pre-set to a particular type (score, random, push, etc)

Well being the inquisitive type I found out that there is a hidden mode called <ADVANCE MODE> which basically allows you to freely assign the layers to whatever floats your boat, want 16 score layers? No problem, or maybe you would like a few extra bounce layers? Anyway you get the idea.

So how do you get to this layer nirvana? Easy, just hold down L1 and L5 whilst powering up your Tenori On, keep them held down until the LCD displays <ADVANCE MODE>. Now you need to go into the layer menu, scroll the wheel down to where it says MODE and you can select the type for the current layer. To change any layer first select it in play mode as you normally would, then go into the layer menu to change as described.

There are also many other secret modes hidden in button combinations whils powering up, including rom mode, wave mode, test mode and others, whilst I don't think you can do any damage doing this I can't be held responsible if you mess something up so be careful :!: :ugeek:

Have fun

Daren

See.

I told you someone would find it.

I found these months ago.
Here is a list of all the modes available in software 1.0.0.

---
Main Prog Update: R1+CANCEL
TG Prog Update: R2+CANCEL
TG Wave Update: R3+CANCEL
Live Test Status Output: R5+CANCEL
ROM Update: OK+CANCEL
Test Mode: L1+CLEAR
Test Mode 2: L2+CLEAR
DAC Test: L3+CLEAR
Advanced Mode: L1+L5

When I talked to Toshio and Yu, I showed them my list and asked about other hidden things and Toshio just smiled and said "in time" whatever that means... ;)

Oh.. and FYI.. when you turn on Advance Mode, it survives a reset so you never have to do it again unless you reset the unit back to Factory Defaults. :D

I did <Advanced Mode> and it is beautiful! I also did the others, but I'm not quite sure what these did though...

Main Prog Update: R1+CANCEL
TG Prog Update: R2+CANCEL
TG Wave Update: R3+CANCEL
Live Test Status Output: R5+CANCEL
ROM Update: OK+CANCEL
Test Mode: L1+CLEAR
Test Mode 2: L2+CLEAR
DAC Test: L3+CLEAR

Can anyone tell me what these did? Because if they are anything like <Advanced Mode> than I want to exploit these functions to the most of my imagination.

Also, I put some songs on the Tenori-on radio(Crimson Curse, I knew this would happen, Dark Skys, Her Skin and Fly Out), let me know what you think.

Thanks

All of the other modes are just test modes or for adding updates via the SD card slot.

Yeah, I knew about it for a while too but did not know any other users to share with until I found this board. I emailed Yamaha about the advance mode shortly after the UK launch and I am surprised that they did not make it public as it makes the machine much more versatile.

they didn't have to make it public. welcome to the future where new products are mastered, dissected and discussed before they are even shipped to us. i had watched so many tenori on videos on you tube that when i went to the launch event i just knew how to work everything. same goes for the kaossilator. any way the future is awesome.

I just pressed:

L1+L2+L3+L4+L5 and R1+R2+R3+R4+R5 at the same time...


Is it normal for my TO to be making a beeping sound while showing a ten minute clock counting backwards? I am starting to think I have discovered "self destruct mode."

:shock:

Actually, I don't have my TO yet, but I am thankful for the people here searching for the button combos I would have looked for as well.

Is it Monday yet? I'd like to hope I get the call, but being #084 leaves me feeling realistic that June will be my time to shine,
