(Mine contains a sticker "10 OCT 1996", but IC copyright label and embossed case date stamp from 1994.) The concept of this instrument has many similarities with Casio SA-5. Like the latter it selects its 100 preset sound by multiple presses of 5 group buttons and a 4 variations button. But unlike the SA-5, the Yamaha PSS-6 has no tekkno sounds but only natural instrument samples, and the variations are mainly duet or trio versions of the same preset sound, or add echo etc. The rhythms have an optional fixed- key accompaniment (called "jam tracks") that plays pre- programmed chord sequences and can automatically switch the main voice sound all few patterns. main features: 32 mini keys built-in speaker (high quality) main voice polyphony 2 notes 100 preset sounds divided into 5 groups with each 5 sounds and each 4 variants per sound selected by the "variation" button: {piano, e. piano, harpsichord, clavi, e. organ | violin, vibraphone, marimba, flute, clarinet | folk guitar, e. guitar, banjo, harp, strings | saxophone, harmonica, accordion, trumpet, horn | fantasy, wood bass, e. bass, slap bass, piano split} 15 preset "jam track" rhythms {dance, rap, funk, rock, minor blues | rock 'n' roll, r b, slow rock, jazz blues, fusion | bossa nova, samba, tango, march, waltz} (switch main voice sound all few patterns). preset sounds rhythms selected through multiple presses of group buttons "jam tracks" accompaniment (fixed- key chord sequences, can be switched off) volume button (7 steps, stepping down up again) tempo button (7 steps, stepping down up again) "AWM" wavetable sound generator with sounds based on medium resolution samples with partly complex volume envelopes (those e.g. simulate echo) and astonishingly high sound quality (16 bit?).
