•Do not place the bench in an unstable position where it might
accidentally fall over.
•Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench. Using it as a tool or
stepladder or for any other purpose might result in accident or injury.
•Only one person should sit on the bench at a time, in order to prevent
the possibility of accident or injury.
• Keep special watch over any small children so that they don’t fall off
the rear of the bench. Since the bench does not have a backrest,
unsupervised use may result in accident or injury.
• When one of the following problems occur, immediately turn off the
power switch and disconnect the electric plug from the outlet. Then
have the device inspected by Yamaha service personnel.
- The power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged.
- It emits unusual smells or smoke.
- Some object has been dropped into the instrument.
- There is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument.
- If any cracks or breakages exist on the instrument.
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:
• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-
connector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly
cause overheating in the outlet.
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet,
always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can
damage it.
• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to
be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
• Assemble the stand and bench in the proper sequence by following the
assembly instructions in this manual (page 106). Also, make sure to
tighten the bolts regularly. Failure to do so might result in damage to
the instrument or even injury.
• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might
accidentally fall over.
• When transporting or moving the instrument, always use two or more
people. Attempting to lift the instrument by yourself may damage your
back, result in other injury, or cause damage to the instrument itself.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent
damage to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them.
• Do not move the stand when the Main unit is placed on it. Doing so
could cause the Main unit to drop off from the stand, resulting in
damage to the instrument or other property, and possibly causing
injury to you or others.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are
using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs,
immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the
outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off, electricity is still
flowing to the product at the minimum level. When you are not using
the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power cord from
the wall AC outlet.
• Use only the provided stand. Failure to do so could cause damage to
the internal components or result in the instrument falling over.
• 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.
• Be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum levels
and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to
set the desired listening level.
• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.
• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on
the panel or keyboard. This could cause physical injury to you or
others, damage to the instrument or other property, or operational
failure.
• 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.
• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones 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.
• Do not place your hand between moving parts. Otherwise, your hand
could be pinched between the parts, possibly resulting in injury.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.
Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (display is off), electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level.
When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

Welcome to the world of the Electone!
This instrument features various realistic instrumental Voices from all over
the world, including piano, organ, guitar, strings, brass, wind instruments
and more. You can play each of the Upper Keyboard, Lower Keyboard,
and Pedalboard in different Voices to layer them.
Super Articulation Voices (page 37)
Super Articulation Voices realistically recreate characteristic instrument
sounds, such as the sound of finger slides on guitar and the breath
noises of saxophone, simply by how you play or by pressing a
Footswitch.
Organ Flutes (page 38)
You can create your original organ sounds by adjusting the footage lever, just like on traditional organs.
This instrument provides you with a wide variety of rhythm patterns or
accompaniment Styles that matches the various music genres. Simply
playing chords automatically triggers and controls the auto
accompaniment backing, and puts an entire backing band behind you!
You can change arrangements on the fly, instantly selecting different
rhythm variations and breaks in real time—including Intro, Ending, and
Fill-in—during your performance.
Unison & Accent (page 50)
With the Unison function, you can play a melody, and have it reproduced in unison (i.e., the same melody is
played by multiple instruments) or tutti (i.e., all parts are played at the same time)—expressively enhancing
your performance. With the Accent function, accents such as crash cymbals are automatically generated in the
Style playback according to your playing strength.
By connecting a microphone, you can hear your vocals through the built-
in speakers, and can also record them with high sound quality. Moreover,
since the lyrics (page 66) or music scores (page 65) of the Song are
shown on the display, you can easily enjoy singing along with your
keyboard performance or Song playback.

Welcome to the world of the Electone!
Various functions can be assigned to each of the Expression Pedal,
Second Expression Pedal and two Footswitches, and this feature lets you
control your performance in real-time by using your foot without
interruption. For example, you can change the volume balance among
the parts, pitch, EQ, etc., and can also add short phrases by using the
Multi Pad function—allowing you to easily add variations to your
performance to match the atmosphere or the mood.
Audio files (WAV format) saved to a USB flash drive can be played back
on the instrument. You can also record your performance as audio files
(WAV format) to a USB flash drive—making it easy to edit your
recordings on a computer, and burn your own CDs. Moreover, the
compatible smart device app (page 97) allows you to record audio and
video of your performances and share them over the Internet.
The Registration Memory function allows you to save the panel
settings such as Voices for each keyboard part, Styles, effects, etc.
all together, and call them up instantly during your performance. The
panel settings can be called up by simply pressing the panel button
or by using the Footswitch (if the Registration Sequence is pre-
programmed).
Each of the REGISTRATION MEMORY [1] – [8] buttons contains the
basic settings by default. Moreover, the preset Playlist provides the
links to call up Registration Memory settings in various music genres.
Try it out!
These are just a few of the many functions that enhance your musical enjoyment and
expand your creative and performance possibilities. Try them out and enjoy your ELA-1!

Adding Articulation Effects by Playing the Keyboard
Example: “ ” VoiceSaxophone
If you play a C note and then an adjacent D in a very legato way, you will hear
the note change seamlessly, as though a saxophone player played it in a single
breath.
Example: “ ” VoiceConcertGuitar
If you play a C note and then the E just above in a very legato but firm way, the
pitch slides up from C to E.
Adding Articulation Effects by Using a Footswitch
You can add articulation effects by using a Footswitch, if you assign the
articulation function to the Footswitch beforehand. Pressing the Footswitch
triggers different playing effects, separate from your keyboard playing. For
example, pressing the Footswitch while playing a saxophone Voice can produce
breath noises or key noises, while doing the same for a guitar Voice can
produce fret noises or body-tapping sounds. You can effectively intersperse
these into the notes as you play.
To apply articulation effects by using the Footswitches, assign “ ” or Articulation1
