PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep this manual 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:
Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required
voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
Use the specified adaptor (PA-300 or an equivalent recommended by
Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the
instrument or overheating.
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.
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.
Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit.
A burning item may fall over and cause a fire.
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 the power
switch, disconnect the adaptor plug from the outlet, and have the instrument
inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.
Even when the power switch is in the “STANDBY” position, 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 AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.
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:
When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always
hold the plug itself and not the cord.
Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during
electrical storms.
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.
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 in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment,
mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or
radio may generate noise.
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.
Use only the stand 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.
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. Also, 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.
When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint
thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
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. If this happens, turn off the power immediately and
unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument
inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
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.
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 and backing up your data
Depending upon the Backup Settings (page 40), internal data is retained for
about 1 week after the power is turned off. If the period is exceeded, the data
will be lost. Be sure to turn the power switch on for a few minutes at least
once a week. The data could be lost due to malfunction or incorrect
operation. Save important data to external media such as the Yamaha MDF3
MIDI data filer.
Backing up the external media
To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that
you save your important data onto two external media.

P-120/P-120S
Introduction
Thank you for choosing the Yamaha Electronic Piano P-120/P-120S. Your P-120/P-120S is a fine musical
instrument that employs advanced Yamaha music technology. With the proper care, your P-120/P-120S will
give you many years of musical pleasure.
The P-120/P-120S Electronic Piano offers unmatched sonic realism and natural
grand-piano type playability with Yamaha’s original “AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling”
tone generation technology for rich, musical voices, and a special “Graded Hammer”
keyboard which provides graded key weight and response throughout the keyboard
range. The grand piano voices feature totally new samples painstakingly recorded
from a full concert grand piano.
Both GRAND PIANO 1 and 2 voices feature multiple velocity-switched samples
(Dynamic Sampling), a “Soundboard Reverb” effect that accurately simulates the res-
onance of a piano soundboard and “Key-off Samples” that add the subtle sound pro-
duced when the keys are released. They also feature special “Sustain Samples” that
recreate the unique resonance produced by an acoustic grand piano’s soundboard
and strings when its damper pedal is pressed.
Dual mode allows 2 voices to be played simultaneously.
Split mode allows different voices to be played by the left and right hands.
The sustain pedal includes a natural resonance effect for the piano voices, simulating
the string and sound-board resonance of acoustic pianos.
Metronome feature with variable tempo facilitates practice.
A two-track digital recorder allows the recording and playback of anything you play on
the keyboard. Up to three user songs can be recorded and stored in the P-120/P-
120S.
MIDI compatibility and a range of MIDI functions make the P-120/P-120S useful in a
range of advanced MIDI music systems.
Built-in computer interface for direct connection to personal computers running
advanced music software.
In order to make the most of your P-120/P-120S’s performance potential and features, we urge you to read
this Owner’s Manual thoroughly, and keep it in a safe place for later reference.

3AUX OUT Jacks : L and R Pin jacks (LEVEL FIXED),
L/L+R and R Phone Jacks
The P-120/P-120S is equipped with both Pin and Phone AUX
OUT jacks to deliver the output of the P-120/P-120S for connection
to an instrument amplifier, mixing console, PA system or recording
equipment. The Pin connectors (L and R) provide easy connection to
a home audio system, etc. The L/L+R Phone Jack allows connection
of the P-120/P-120S to a monaural sound system. When a plug is
inserted into the L/L+R jack only, the left- and right-channel signals
are combined and delivered via the L/L+R jack so you don’t lose any
of the P-120/P-120S’s sound.
Before connecting the P-120/P-120S to other electronic compo-
nents, turn off the power for all components. Before turning the
power on or off for all components, set all-volume levels to mini-
mum.
When turning the power on, first turn the P-120/P-120S’s power on
and then turn the power on of the external amplifier/speaker sys-
tem.
When turning the power off, simply reverse the order.
Make sure that a low resistance audio cable or adaptor plug is used.
The [MASTER VOLUME] control on the P-120/P-120S has no affect on
the sound that is delivered from the AUX OUT (LEVEL FIXED) jacks.

SUSTAIN PEDAL Jack
This jack is for connecting a sustain pedal to the P-120/P-120S.
The pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on an acous-
tic piano. Connect the supplied pedal to this jack and press the pedal
to sustain the sound. The further down the pedal is pressed, the
longer the sound will be sustained (can be used like a half pedal
effect).
When the GRAND PIANO 1 and 2 voices are selected, pressing
the damper pedal activates the instrument’s special “Sustain Sam-
ples” to accurately recreate the unique resonance of an acoustic
grand piano’s soundboard and strings.
Make sure that power is OFF when connecting or disconnecting the
pedal.
The depth of the effect produced by the “Sustain Samples” can be
adjusted via the “Pedal Functions” (page 35) in the function mode.
Depending upon the pedal that is connected to the SUSTAIN PEDAL jack,
the effect produced by operating the pedal (ON/OFF, dynamics, etc.)
might be reversed. If this is the case, refer to the “SUSTAIN PEDAL Type”
section (page 36).
7
AUX PEDAL Jack
This jack is for connecting the supplied pedal, an FC7 foot con-
troller or an FC4 foot switch. A wide range of functions such as the
Soft Pedal function, etc., can be assigned to this jack. Use the Func-
tion settings to assign the function. (see page 35)
The FC7 Foot Controller can be used to control “Expression” (page 35).
Depending upon the pedal that is connected to the AUX PEDAL jack, the
effect produced by operating the pedal (ON/OFF, dynamics, etc.) might be
reversed. If this is the case, refer to the “AUX PEDAL Type” section (page
36).

MIDI IN, and OUT Connectors
The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external
MIDI device (such as a MIDI sequencer) which can be used to con-
trol the P-120/P-120S. The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI
data generated by the P-120/P-120S (e.g. note and velocity data pro-
duced by playing the P-120/P-120S keyboard).
More details on MIDI are given in “MIDI Functions” on page 37.

TO HOST Connector & HOST SELECT Switch
This jack and selector switch allow direct connection to a per-

Transposition
Brilliance
For a brighter or “sharper” tone, slide the control towards the
BRIGHT position. For a “rounder” more mellow tone, slide the control
towards the MELLOW position.
When the BRILLIANCE is set to BRIGHT, the overall sound will be slightly
louder. If the MASTER VOLUME is set at a high level the sound may
become distorted. If so, lower the MASTER VOLUME level.
This control can be used to change the tonality or “timbre” of the sound output.
The control range is from MELLOW to BRIGHT.
NOTE
Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] button while holding the [TRANS-
POSE] button to transpose down or up as required. The transposition
range is from “–12” (down one octave) through “0” (normal pitch) to
“12” (up one octave). The amount of transposition appears on the LED
display while the [TRANSPOSE] button is held. The default transpose
setting is “0”.
The [TRANSPOSE] button indicator remains lit when a transpose
setting other than “0” is selected. Every time the [TRANSPOSE] button
is pressed after that switches the transpose ON/OFF.
• Notes below and above the A-1 … C7 range of the P-120/P-120S sound
one octave higher and lower, respectively.
The P-120/P-120S’s TRANSPOSE function makes it possible to shift the pitch
of the entire keyboard up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of 12
semitones (i.e. a maximum of one octave up or down). “Transposing” the pitch of
the P-120/P-120S keyboard facilitates playing in difficult key signatures, and you
can easily match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instru-
mentalist.

Touch Sensitivity
To select a touch sensitivity type press the [TOUCH] button a few
times until the indicator corresponding to the desired type lights (the
indicators light in sequence each time the [TOUCH] button is pressed).
HARD
The HARD setting requires the keys to be played quite hard to produce
maximum loudness.
MEDIUM
The MEDIUM setting produces a fairly “standard” keyboard response.
This is the initial factory default setting.
SOFT
The SOFT setting allows maximum loudness to be produced with rela-
tively light key pressure.
FIXED (no indicator lit)
All notes are produced at the same volume no matter how hard the key-
board is played.
When the FIXED type is selected, the volume of notes played in the
FIXED mode can be set by using the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons
while the [TOUCH] button is held (the current volume level appears on
the display). The volume range is from 1 through 127. The default setting
is 64.
• This setting does not change the weight of the keyboard.
• The touch sensitivity type and volume set in the FIXED mode will become
the common setting for all voices. However, the touch sensitivity settings
may have little or no effect with certain voices which are not normally
responsive to keyboard dynamics (Refer to the “Voice Descriptions” on
page 45).
Four different types of keyboard touch sensitivity — HARD, MEDIUM, SOFT
or FIXED — can be selected to match different playing styles and preferences.

The current tuning setting is shown on the LED display while the tuning is
being adjusted. Tenths of a Hertz are indicated on the LED display by the
appearance and position of one or two dots, as in the following example:
An alternative tuning method is available in the Function mode — page 31.
Tuning makes it possible to adjust the pitch of the P-120/P-120S over a 427.0
Hz … 453.0 Hz (corresponding to the A3 note’s Hz) range in approximately 0.2
Hertz intervals. Pitch control is useful for tuning the P-120/P-120S to match other
instruments or recorded music.

The ability to record and play back what you’ve played on the P-120/P-120S
keyboard can be an effective practice aid. You can, for example, record just the
left-hand part, and then practice the right-hand part while playing back the
recorded left-hand part. Or, since you can record up to two tracks separately, you
could record the left- and right-hand parts separately, or record both parts of a
duet and hear how they sound when played back. The P-120/P-120S’s two-track
Song Recorder allows the recording of three User Songs.

Changing the Initial Settings..............................
The initial voice, tempo, time signature, reverb type, reverb
depth, effect type and effect depth settings made in step 2 of the
recording procedure are actually recorded by the P-120/P-120S.
These initial settings can be changed after the recording is fin-
ished by pressing the [REC] button to engage the record ready
mode, pressing the appropriate track button, making the required
changes, and then pressing the [REC] button again to exit from
the record ready mode and register the changes.
If you do this, be careful not to press the SONG [START/
STOP] button or a key on the keyboard, either of which will start
recording and erase all previous recorded data on the selected
track.
It is possible to cancel the operation even after changes have
been made: change tracks and then press the [REC] button to exit
from the record mode.
Erasing a Single Track.........................................
All data can be erased from either of the recorder’s tracks by
engaging the record mode, selecting the track you want to erase,
and then pressing the SONG [START/STOP] button twice with-
out recording any data.
To playback what you’ve recorded, first make sure that the song you
want to playback is selected by pressing the [USER 1/2/3] button to
select the song for playback. The selected song indicator will light. (A
song is not selected if none of the indicators are lit.) Next, make sure
that the green track indicators of the tracks you want to play are lit. If
not, press the corresponding track button(s) so that they are lit. Then
press the SONG [START/STOP] button. Playback starts from the
beginning of the recorded data, and will stop automatically at the end of
the recorded data. You can also stop playback at any time by pressing
the SONG [START/STOP] button.
To mute a track so that it doesn’t play back, press the corresponding
track button so that its indicator goes out (press again to turn the track
back on).

When in the demo song mode, the [USER 1/2/3] button can not be used
to select a song.
It is possible to play along on the keyboard during playback. In this case,
the playback voice and the voice you play on the keyboard are not the
same. The playback voice is the voice that was set when the data was
recorded. The voice you play on the keyboard is the voice that is selected
on the panel.
The playback volume and tempo can be adjusted by using the [MASTER
VOLUME] control and [TEMPO/FUNCTION#
,
] buttons (press both
[TEMPO/FUNCTION#
,
] buttons simultaneously to recall the default

All user song recorder data will be retained in memory for about one week
after the power is turned off. If you want to keep your recorded data for
longer periods, turn the power on for a few minutes at least once a week.
It is also possible to store it to an external MIDI storage device such as the
Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3 by using the Bulk Data Dump function
described on page 39.
If the metronome is being used during playback, the metronome will auto-
matically stop when playback is stopped.
During recorder playback, the volume of a track which is turned off will
always be “0” (i.e. the “Preset Song Part Cancel Volume” function — page
36 — only affects preset song playback.
The playback data is not transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector.
Playback cannot be started when the recorder contains no data, or when
both track buttons are off.
If the REVERB type is changed via the panel controls during playback,
both the playback and keyboard reverb effects will be changed.
If the EFFECT type is changed via the panel controls during playback, the

1. Soft Pedal
The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly
changes the timbre of notes played while the
pedal is pressed. The soft pedal will not affect
notes which are already playing when it is
pressed.
2. Sostenuto Pedal
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and
press the pedal while the note(s) are held,
those notes will be sustained for as long as the
pedal is held (as if the sustain pedal had been
pressed) but all notes played thereafter will not
be sustained. This makes it possible to sustain
a chord, for example, while other notes are
played “staccato.
Organ, string and choir voices will
continue to sound for as long as the
sostenuto pedal is depressed.
3. Expression
This mode allows control of dynamics during
performance.
4. Sustain Pedal (ON/OFF)
The sustain pedal functions in the same way
as the damper pedal on an acoustic piano. In
this case the AUX PEDAL operates as an ON/
OFF switch so when the pedal is pressed,
notes played have a long sustain. Releasing
the pedal immediately stops (dampens) any
sustained notes.
5. Sustain Pedal (Continuous)
The sustain pedal functions in the same basic
way as the damper pedal on an acoustic piano
however, in this case the pedal operates as
continuous controller so the further down the
pedal is pressed, the longer notes will sustain
(can be used like a half pedal effect).
6. Variation
This mode allows switching of the Voice’s vari-
ation on or off. In this mode, the AUX PEDAL
functions in the same manner as the [VARIA-
TION] button on the panel.
7. Song Start/Stop
This mode allows starting/stopping of song
playback. In this mode, the AUX PEDAL func-
tions in the same manner as the SONG
[START/STOP] button on the panel.
We recommend that an optional foot
controller FC7 be used with mode 3
(Expression). In mode 5 (Sustain
Pedal [Continuous]), we recommend
that the supplied pedal be used. For
all other modes, we recommend
either the supplied pedal or the
optional FC4 foot switch be used.

setting of “1” produces minimum effect depth while a setting of “5” produces maximum effect
depth. Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting
of “3”.
F5.4: SUSTAIN PEDAL Type....................................................................
F5.5: AUX PEDAL Type............................................................................
Depending upon the pedal that is connected to the SUSTAIN PEDAL jack or AUX PEDAL
jack, the effect produced by operating the pedal (ON/OFF, dynamics, etc.) might be reversed.
If that is the case, use this setting to correct pedal operation. The setting range is from 1 to 2.
Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting of “1”.
Make sure that the power is switched OFF when connecting or disconnecting the pedal.
If the SUSTAIN PEDAL type is set to “2”, disconnecting the sustain pedal while the power is switched
on may leave the sustain active, causing notes to sustain indefinitely. In this case, switch the power
“OFF” then back “ON”.
The volume of the metronome sound can be changed. After selecting “F6”, use the
[–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to set the metronome volume as required. The volume range
is from 1 through 20. A setting of “1” produces minimum sound, while a setting of “20” pro-
duces maximum metronome volume. Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simulta-
neously to recall the default setting “10”.
This function sets the volume at which a “canceled” part is played during preset song play-
back (see page 17 for information on the “preset song part cancel” function). Use the
[–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to set the volume as required. The volume range is from 0
through 20. A setting of “0” produces no sound, while a setting of “20” produces maximum
volume. Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting
“5”.
Adjust the part volume to a comfortable level to use the “canceled” part as a guide to play
along with. Set to “0” if you don’t want to hear the part.

The side-panel HOST SELECT switch must be set to “MIDI” in order to use the MIDI connectors. When you
use the TO HOST connector, set the HOST SELECT switch to the appropriate position for the type of com-
puter you are using (see page 41). In this situation, all MIDI settings described below will have affect on the
MIDI signal in and out of the TO HOST connector.
Always use a high-quality MIDI cable to connect MIDI OUT to MIDI IN terminals. Never use MIDI cables
longer than about 15 meters, since cables longer than this can pick up noise which can cause data errors.
F8.1: MIDI Transmit Channel Selection .........................................................
F8.2: MIDI Receive Channel Selection ..........................................................
The MIDI system allows transmission and reception of MIDI data on 16 different channels. Mul-
tiple channels have been implemented to allow selective control of certain instruments or devices
connected in series. For example, a single MIDI sequence recorder could be used to “play” two dif-
ferent instruments or tone generators. One of the instruments or tone generators could be set to
receive only on channel 1, while the other is set to receive on channel 2. In this situation the first
instrument or tone generator will respond only to channel-1 information transmitted by the sequence
recorder, while the second instrument or tone generator will respond only to channel-2 information.
This allows the sequence recorder to “play” two completely different parts on the receiving instru-
ments or tone generators.
F8: MIDI Functions ________________________________

A Brief Introduction to MIDI
MIDI, the Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a
world-standard communication interface that allows MIDI-
compatible musical instruments and equipment to share
musical information and control one another. This makes it
possible to create “systems” of MIDI instruments and equipment that offer far greater versatility and control than is available
with isolated instruments. For example, most MIDI keyboards (including the P-120/P-120S, of course) transmit note and veloc-
ity (touch response) information via the MIDI OUT connector whenever a note is played on the keyboard. If the MIDI OUT
connector is connected to the MIDI IN connector of a second keyboard (synthesizer, etc.) or a tone generator (essentially a syn-
thesizer with no keyboard), the second keyboard or tone generator will respond precisely to notes played on the original trans-
mitting keyboard. The result is that you can effectively play two instruments at once, providing thick multi-instrument sounds.
This same type of musical information transfer is used for MIDI sequence recording. A sequence recorder can be used to
“record” MIDI data received from a P-120/P-120S, for example. When the recorded data is played back, the P-120/P-120S auto-
matically “plays” the recorded performance in precise
detail.
The examples given above really only scratch the sur-
face. MIDI can do much, much more. The P-120/P-120S
MIDI functions allow it to be used in fairly sophisticated
MIDI systems.

In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and receiving equipment must
be matched for proper data transfer. A “Multi-timbre” receive mode is also available, which allows
simultaneous reception of different parts on all 16 MIDI channels, allowing the P-120/P-120S to
play multi-channel song data received from a music computer or sequencer. There’s also a “1-2”
mode which allows simultaneous reception on channels 1 and 2.
Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to select the desired transmit or receive channel. The
transmit channel parameter can also be turned “OFF” if you don’t want the P-120/P-120S to transmit
any MIDI data. To select the multi-timbre receive mode, set the receive channel to “ALL”. Select “1-
2” for multi-timbre reception on channels 1 and 2 only.
Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting: transmit =
“1”; receive = “ALL”.
In the dual mode first voice data is transmitted on its set channel, and in the split mode right voice data is
transmitted on its set channel. In the dual mode second voice data is transmitted on the next greater channel
number of the set channel, and in the split mode left voice data is transmitted on the next greater channel
number of the set channel. In either mode, no data is transmitted if the transmit channel is set to “OFF”.
Demo/preset song data and recorder playback data are not transmitted via MIDI.
No MIDI reception occurs when the demo/preset song mode is engaged.
Program change and other like channel messages received will not affect the P-120/P-120S’s panel settings
or what is being played on the keyboard.
F8.3: Local Control ON/OFF ...........................................................................
“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the P-120/P-120S keyboard controls its internal
tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the keyboard. This situation is
“Local Control On” since the internal tone generator is controlled locally by its own keyboard.
Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that the P-120/P-120S keyboard does not play the
internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT connec-
tor when notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator responds to
MIDI information received via the MIDI IN connector.
Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to turn local control “On” or “OFF”.
Press [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “On”.
F8.4: Program Change ON/OFF .....................................................................
Normally the P-120/P-120S will respond to MIDI program change numbers received from an
external keyboard or other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly numbered voice to be selected
on the corresponding channel (the keyboard voice does not change). The P-120/P-120S will nor-
mally also send a MIDI program change number whenever one of its voices is selected, causing the
correspondingly numbered voice or program to be selected on the external MIDI device if the device
is set up to receive and respond to MIDI program change numbers.
This function makes it possible to cancel program change number reception and transmission so
that voices can be selected on the P-120/P-120S without affecting the external MIDI device.
Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to turn program change transmission and reception
“On” or “OFF”.
Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “On”.
For information on program change numbers for each of the P-120/P-120S’s voices, refer to page 51 in the
MIDI Data Format section.

F8.5: Control Change ON/OFF .......................................................................
Normally the P-120/P-120S will respond to MIDI control change data received from an external
MIDI device or keyboard, causing the voice on the corresponding channel to be affected by pedal
and other “control” settings received from the controlling device (the keyboard voice is not affected).
The P-120/P-120S also transmits MIDI control change information when the pedal or other appro-
priate controls are operated.
This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission so that,
for example, the P-120/P-120S’s pedal and other controls can be operated without affecting an exter-
nal MIDI device.
Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to turn control change transmission and reception “On”
or “OFF”.
Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “On”.
For information on control changes that can be used with the P-120/P-120S, refer to the MIDI Data Format on
page 50.
F8.6: MIDI Transmit Transpose .......................................................................
This function allows the MIDI note data transmitted by the P-120/P-120S to be transposed up or
down in semitone increments by up to plus or minus 12 semitones. The pitch of the P-120/P-120S
itself is not affected.
Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to set the desired amount of MIDI transmit transposi-
tion. The range is from “–12” (down one octave) through “0” (no transposition) to “12” (up one
octave).
Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “0”.
F8.7: Panel/Status Transmit............................................................................
This function causes all the current P-120/P-120S panel settings (selected voice, etc.) to be trans-
mitted via the MIDI OUT terminal. This is particularly useful if you will be recording performances
to a MIDI sequence recorder such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3 which will be used to con-
trol the P-120/P-120S on playback. By transmitting the P-120/P-120S panel settings and recording
them on the MIDI sequence recorder prior to the actual performance data, the P-120/P-120S will be
automatically restored to the same settings when the performance is played back.
Press the [+/YES] button to transmit the panel/status data. “End” will appear on the LED dis-
play when the data has been successfully transmitted.
See page 51 for list of the “Panel Data Contents” transmitted by this function.
Panel setting data that is transmitted to an external device can only be reloaded on another P-120/P-120S.
Panel setting data can also be directly transferred to or from another P-120/P-120S.
F8.8: Bulk Data Dump.....................................................................................
This function is used to transmit all data stored in the User Song Recorder memory to a MIDI data
storage device such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3, other sequence recorders, or MIDI com-
patible computers.
Press the [+/YES] button to begin bulk transmission. “End” will appear on the LED display
when the data has been successfully transmitted.
User song recorder data that is transmitted to an external device can only be reloaded on another P-120/P-
120S. Recorder data can also be directly transferred to or from another P-120/P-120S.
The reload operation cannot be executed when the demo/preset song mode or user song recorder is in oper-
ation, or when the Function mode is engaged.
No MIDI note/panel data transmission or data reception occurs during a bulk data dump transmit operation.

If you’re already very familiar with MIDI, or are using a com-
puter to control your music hardware with computer-gener-
ated MIDI messages, the data provided in this section can
help you to control the P-120/P-120S.
Falls Sie bereits mit MIDI vertraut sind oder einen Computer
zur Erzeugung von MIDI-Steuermeldungen für die Instru-
mente verwenden, können Sie sich zur Steuerung des P-120/
P-120S nach den im folgenden Abschnitt aufgeführten Spezi-
fikationen richten.
Si vous êtes très familier avec l’interface MIDI ou si vous uti-
lisez un ordinateur pour commander votre matériel de musi-
que au moyen de messages MIDI générés par ordinateur, les
données suivantes vous seront utiles et vous aideront à com-
mander le P-120/P-120S.
SI usted está ya familiarizado con MIDI, o si emplea una
computadora para controlar sus aparatos musicales con
mensajes MIDI generados por computadora, los datos pro-
porcionados en esta sección le ayudarán a controlar la P-
120/P-120S.

Bank Select and Mode messages.
Local on/off, OMNI on/off are not transmitted. (The appropriate note
off number is supplied with “All Note Off” transmission).
When a voice bank MSB/LSB is received, the number is stored in
the internal buffer regardless of the received order, then the stored
value is used to select the appropriate voice when a program
change message is received.

Serial No. Purchase Date ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES: Yamaha strives to produce products that are both user safe and environmentally friendly. We sincerely believe that our products and the production methods used to produce them, meet these goals. In keeping with both the letter and the spirit of the law, we want you to be aware of the following: PLEASE KEEP THIS MANUAL 92-BP (bottom) PRECAUTIONS PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING * Please keep this manual 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: Power supply/AC power adaptor Water warning • Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument. • 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. • Use the specified adaptor (PA-300 or an equivalent recommended by Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument or overheating. • 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. Fire warning • Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit. A burning item may fall over and cause a fire. If you notice any abnormality Do not open • 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. 1/2 1 (3)-7 • 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 the power switch, disconnect the adaptor plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel. P-120/P-120S 3 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: Power supply/AC power adaptor Maintenance • When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths. • When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. • Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during electrical storms. • 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. Handling caution • 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. If this happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel. Location • 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 place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard. • Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise. • 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. • 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 place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over. • Before moving the instrument, remove all connected adaptor and other cables. Saving data • Use only the stand 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. Connections • 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. Also, 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. Saving and backing up your data • Depending upon the Backup Settings (page 40), internal data is retained for about 1 week after the power is turned off. If the period is exceeded, the data will be lost. Be sure to turn the power switch on for a few minutes at least once a week. The data could be lost due to malfunction or incorrect operation. Save important data to external media such as the Yamaha MDF3 MIDI data filer. Backing up the external media • To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that you save your important data onto two external media. 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. Even when the power switch is in the “STANDBY” position, 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 AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet. (3)-7 2/2 2 4 P-120/P-120S Introduction Thank you for choosing the Yamaha Electronic Piano P-120/P-120S. Your P-120/P-120S is a fine musical instrument that employs advanced Yamaha music technology. With the proper care, your P-120/P-120S will give you many years of musical pleasure. ● The P-120/P-120S Electronic Piano offers unmatched sonic realism and natural grand-piano type playability with Yamaha’s original “AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling” tone generation technology for rich, musical voices, and a special “Graded Hammer” keyboard which provides graded key weight and response throughout the keyboard range. The grand piano voices feature totally new samples painstakingly recorded from a full concert grand piano. Both GRAND PIANO 1 and 2 voices feature multiple velocity-switched samples (Dynamic Sampling), a “Soundboard Reverb” effect that accurately simulates the resonance of a piano soundboard and “Key-off Samples” that add the subtle sound produced when the keys are released. They also feature special “Sustain Samples” that recreate the unique resonance produced by an acoustic grand piano’s soundboard and strings when its damper pedal is pressed. ● Dual mode allows 2 voices to be played simultaneously. ● Split mode allows different voices to be played by the left and right hands. ● The sustain pedal includes a natural resonance effect for the piano voices, simulating the string and sound-board resonance of acoustic pianos. ● Metronome feature with variable tempo facilitates practice. ● A two-track digital recorder allows the recording and playback of anything you play on the keyboard. Up to three user songs can be recorded and stored in the P-120/P120S. ● MIDI compatibility and a range of MIDI functions make the P-120/P-120S useful in a range of advanced MIDI music systems. ● Built-in computer interface for direct connection to personal computers running advanced music software. In order to make the most of your P-120/P-120S’s performance potential and features, we urge you to read this Owner’s Manual thoroughly, and keep it in a safe place for later reference. ■ Trademarks • Apple and Macintosh are trademarks of Apple Computer, Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries. • IBM-PC/AT is a trademark of International Business Machines Corporation. • Windows is the registered trademark of Microsoft® Corporation.

NOTE • When the BRILLIANCE is set to BRIGHT, the overall sound will be slightly louder. If the MASTER VOLUME is set at a high level the sound may become distorted. If so, lower the MASTER VOLUME level. Transposition The P-120/P-120S’s TRANSPOSE function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of 12 semitones (i.e. a maximum of one octave up or down). “Transposing” the pitch of the P-120/P-120S keyboard facilitates playing in difficult key signatures, and you can easily match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instrumentalist. Use the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] button while holding the [TRANSPOSE] button to transpose down or up as required. The transposition range is from “–12” (down one octave) through “0” (normal pitch) to “12” (up one octave). The amount of transposition appears on the LED display while the [TRANSPOSE] button is held. The default transpose setting is “0”. The [TRANSPOSE] button indicator remains lit when a transpose setting other than “0” is selected. Every time the [TRANSPOSE] button is pressed after that switches the transpose ON/OFF. NOTE • Notes below and above the A-1 … C7 range of the P-120/P-120S sound one octave higher and lower, respectively. 20 22 P-120/P-120S Touch Sensitivity Four different types of keyboard touch sensitivity — HARD, MEDIUM, SOFT or FIXED — can be selected to match different playing styles and preferences. To select a touch sensitivity type press the [TOUCH] button a few times until the indicator corresponding to the desired type lights (the indicators light in sequence each time the [TOUCH] button is pressed). HARD The HARD setting requires the keys to be played quite hard to produce maximum loudness. MEDIUM The MEDIUM setting produces a fairly “standard” keyboard response. This is the initial factory default setting. SOFT The SOFT setting allows maximum loudness to be produced with relatively light key pressure. FIXED (no indicator lit) All notes are produced at the same volume no matter how hard the keyboard is played. When the FIXED type is selected, the volume of notes played in the FIXED mode can be set by using the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons while the [TOUCH] button is held (the current volume level appears on the display). The volume range is from 1 through 127. The default setting is 64. NOTE • This setting does not change the weight of the keyboard. 21 • The touch sensitivity type and volume set in the FIXED mode will become the common setting for all voices. However, the touch sensitivity settings may have little or no effect with certain voices which are not normally responsive to keyboard dynamics (Refer to the “Voice Descriptions” on page 45). P-120/P-120S 23 Tuning Tuning makes it possible to adjust the pitch of the P-120/P-120S over a 427.0 Hz … 453.0 Hz (corresponding to the A3 note’s Hz) range in approximately 0.2 Hertz intervals. Pitch control is useful for tuning the P-120/P-120S to match other instruments or recorded music. Tuning Up ..................................................................... Z To tune up (raise pitch), hold the A-1 and B-1 keys simultaneously. X Press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range is A -1 B -1 C3 B3 A# -1 A -1 C3 B3 A# -1 A -1 B -1 C3 B3 pressed the pitch is increased by approximately 0.2 Hz. The [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons can also be used to tune down or up, respectively, in approximately 1 Hz increments. Press the [–/ NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall standard tuning (A3 = 440 Hz). C Release the A-1 and B-1 keys. Tuning Down ................................................................ Z To tune down (lower pitch), hold the A-1 and A#-1 keys simultaneously. X Press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range is pressed the pitch is decreased by approximately 0.2 Hz. The [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons can also be used to tune down or up, respectively, in approximately 1 Hz increments. Press the [–/ NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall standard tuning (A3 = 440 Hz). C Release the A-1 and A#-1 keys. To Restore Standard Pitch.......................................... Z To restore the default pitch (A3 = 440 Hz), hold the A-1, A#-1 and B-1 keys simultaneously. X Press any key between C3 and B3. (Pressing once will restore the keyboard to standard pitch, regardless of the amount of pitch adjustment.) C Release the A-1, A#-1 and B-1 keys. In terms of “Hertz”, the overall tuning range is from 427.0 Hz to 453.0 Hz. The current tuning setting is shown on the LED display while the tuning is being adjusted. Tenths of a Hertz are indicated on the LED display by the appearance and position of one or two dots, as in the following example: Display 440 4.40 44.0 440. 4.40. NOTE Value 440.0 440.2 440.4 440.6 440.8 • An alternative tuning method is available in the Function mode — page 31. 22 24 P-120/P-120S The Metronome & Tempo Control The P-120/P-120S built-in metronome is a convenient feature for practice, and it can also provide a solid rhythmic guide when recording with the User Song Recorder feature, described in the next section. The Metronome The metronome sound is alternately turned on and off by pressing the METRONOME [START/STOP] button. When on, the beat indicator flashes at the current tempo. Metronome Time Signature................................. Beat indicator The time signature (beat) of the metronome can be set by using the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons while holding the METRONOME [START/STOP] button. You can set the beat to 0, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 (the current setting appears on the LED display while the METRONOME [START/STOP] button is held). Press the [–/ NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously while holding the METRONOME [START/STOP] button to recall the default setting “0” (no accent). Metronome Volume Function.............................. The volume of the metronome sound can be adjusted via the Metronome Volume function in the Function mode—page 36. Tempo Control The tempo of the metronome and user song recorder playback (the recorder is described in the next section) can be set from 32 to 280 beats per minute by using the [TEMPO/FUNCTION# ▼, ▲] buttons (when the [TEMPO/FUNCTION #] button’s [TEMPO] indicator is lit). The selected tempo will appear on the LED display while in the normal play mode and while the [TEMPO/FUNCTION# ▼, ▲] buttons are being used to adjust the tempo in the recording/playback mode. The default tempo (120 or the recorded song tempo when the recorder contains data and the playback track indicator is lit) can be recalled by simultaneously pressing the [▼] and [▲] buttons. • If the [TEMPO/FUNCTION#] button’s [FUNCTION#] indicator is lit, press the [TEMPO/FUNCTION#] button to light the [TEMPO] indicator. 23 NOTE P-120/P-120S 25 Using the User Song Recorder The ability to record and play back what you’ve played on the P-120/P-120S keyboard can be an effective practice aid. You can, for example, record just the left-hand part, and then practice the right-hand part while playing back the recorded left-hand part. Or, since you can record up to two tracks separately, you could record the left- and right-hand parts separately, or record both parts of a duet and hear how they sound when played back. The P-120/P-120S’s two-track Song Recorder allows the recording of three User Songs. The user song recorder actually records the following data: ■ Entire Song ● Tempo ● Time signature (beat) ● Effect type (including OFF) ● Reverb type (including OFF) ■ Individual Tracks ● Notes played ● Voice selection ● Dual mode voices ● Split mode voices ● Pedal Operation (sustain, soft, sostenuto, expression) ● Reverb depth ● Dual balance (F3) ● Dual octave shift (F3) ● Split balance (F4) ● Voice variation ● Effect depth ● Dual detune (F3) ● Split octave shift (F4) Recording 1 Select a Song For Recording.............................. Press the [USER 1/2/3] button to select a song for recording. The indicator of the selected song will light. (A song is not selected if none of the indicators are lit.) NOTE 2 Make All Necessary Initial Settings ................... Before actually beginning to record, select the voice you want to record with (or voices if you will be using the dual or split mode). You might also want to set the volume and tempo controls. NOTE 3 • When in the demo song mode, the [USER 1/2/3] button can not be used to select a song. • If you want to change the tempo, time signature, reverb type, or effect type when re-recording a track or when recording to another track, do so after entering the record ready mode (step 3). Engage the Record Ready Mode........................ Press the [REC] button to engage the record ready mode (recording does not actually start yet). The record ready mode can be disengaged before recording by pressing the [REC] button a second time. 24 26 P-120/P-120S Using the User Song Recorder 4 Select the Record Track ...................................... When the record mode is engaged in the previous step, the lastrecorded track will automatically be selected for recording and its indicator — i.e. the [TRACK 1] or [TRACK 2] button indicator — will glow red. If you want to record on a different track, press the appropriate track button so that its indicator glows red. NOTE • The indicator of a track containing previously recorded data will glow green (unless the track is turned off as described below). When recording, the previously recorded data on the track not being recorded will be played back so you can play along with the previously recorded track. If you don’t want to hear the previously recorded track as you record (when you want to record a song different from what you recorded on the previous track etc.,), press the playback track button before pressing the [REC] button (step 2, above) so that its indicator goes out. • If a user song ([USER 1/2/3]) is not selected (the lamp is not lit), pressing the [REC] button will result in the [USER 1] song’s [TRACK 1] being selected and the record ready mode engaged. At this time, [TRACK 2] playback will be turned off if the track contains data. • Recording on a track which already contains data (the indicator glows green) will erase all previous data on that track. • When the record mode is engaged the amount of memory available for recording will be shown on the LED display in approximate kilobytes (starting at “47”), and the rightmost dot on the LED display will flash at the current METRONOME tempo setting. 5 Start Recording.................................................... Recording will begin automatically as soon as you play a note on the keyboard or press the SONG [START/STOP] button. The current measure number will appear on the display while recording. NOTE • The AUX pedal can be assigned to start and stop recording via the “AUX PEDAL Mode” function described on page 35. • If the metronome was on when you started recording, you’ll be able to keep time with the metronome while recording, but the metronome sound will not be recorded. • You can record up to a maximum of about 10,000 notes on the P120/P-120S depending on pedal usage and other factors. The record track indicator will begin to flash when recorder memory is almost full. If the memory becomes full during recording, “ FUL” will appear on the display and recording will stop automatically. (All recorded data up to that point will be retained.) Stop Recording .................................................... Press either the [REC] or SONG [START/STOP] button to stop recording. The indicator of the recorded track will glow green to indicate that it now contains data. 25 6 P-120/P-120S 27 Using the User Song Recorder Changing the Initial Settings .............................. The initial voice, tempo, time signature, reverb type, reverb depth, effect type and effect depth settings made in step 2 of the recording procedure are actually recorded by the P-120/P-120S. These initial settings can be changed after the recording is finished by pressing the [REC] button to engage the record ready mode, pressing the appropriate track button, making the required changes, and then pressing the [REC] button again to exit from the record ready mode and register the changes. If you do this, be careful not to press the SONG [START/ STOP] button or a key on the keyboard, either of which will start recording and erase all previous recorded data on the selected track. It is possible to cancel the operation even after changes have been made: change tracks and then press the [REC] button to exit from the record mode. Erasing a Single Track......................................... All data can be erased from either of the recorder’s tracks by engaging the record mode, selecting the track you want to erase, and then pressing the SONG [START/STOP] button twice without recording any data. Press twice. Playback To playback what you’ve recorded, first make sure that the song you want to playback is selected by pressing the [USER 1/2/3] button to select the song for playback. The selected song indicator will light. (A song is not selected if none of the indicators are lit.) Next, make sure that the green track indicators of the tracks you want to play are lit. If not, press the corresponding track button(s) so that they are lit. Then press the SONG [START/STOP] button. Playback starts from the beginning of the recorded data, and will stop automatically at the end of the recorded data. You can also stop playback at any time by pressing the SONG [START/STOP] button. To mute a track so that it doesn’t play back, press the corresponding track button so that its indicator goes out (press again to turn the track back on). The current measure number appears on the display during playback. 26 28 P-120/P-120S Using the User Song Recorder NOTE • When in the demo song mode, the [USER 1/2/3] button can not be used to select a song. • It is possible to play along on the keyboard during playback. In this case, the playback voice and the voice you play on the keyboard are not the same. The playback voice is the voice that was set when the data was recorded. The voice you play on the keyboard is the voice that is selected on the panel. • The playback volume and tempo can be adjusted by using the [MASTER VOLUME] control and [TEMPO/FUNCTION# ▼,▲] buttons (press both [TEMPO/FUNCTION# ▼,▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default tempo). • All user song recorder data will be retained in memory for about one week after the power is turned off. If you want to keep your recorded data for longer periods, turn the power on for a few minutes at least once a week. It is also possible to store it to an external MIDI storage device such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3 by using the Bulk Data Dump function described on page 39. • If the metronome is being used during playback, the metronome will automatically stop when playback is stopped. • During recorder playback, the volume of a track which is turned off will always be “0” (i.e. the “Preset Song Part Cancel Volume” function — page 36 — only affects preset song playback. • The playback data is not transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector. • Playback cannot be started when the recorder contains no data, or when both track buttons are off. • If the REVERB type is changed via the panel controls during playback, both the playback and keyboard reverb effects will be changed. • If the EFFECT type is changed via the panel controls during playback, the playback effect may be switched off in some cases. Synchro Start ....................................................... When the Synchro Start function is engaged, recorder playback will begin automatically as soon as you start playing on the keyboard. To engage the Synchro Start function press the SONG [START/STOP] button while holding a track button which is ON. The rightmost dot on the display will flash at the current tempo. (Repeat the previous operation to disengage the Syncro Start function.) Playback will then start as soon as you begin playing on the keyboard. If you hold a track button which is OFF while pressing the SONG [START/STOP] button, that track will be turned ON and the Synchro Start mode will be engaged. AUX PEDAL Start/Stop........................................ 27 The AUX PEDAL can be assigned to start and stop recorder playback via the “AUX PEDAL Mode” function described on page 35. This is convenient for starting playback of the recorded part anytime after you have started playing.

F5.1: AUX PEDAL Mode .......................................................................... This function conveniently lets you set operation of the AUX PEDAL to one of the modes listed below. Use the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons to select the desired AUX PEDAL mode. Press the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting of “1”. 1. Soft Pedal 5. Sustain Pedal (Continuous) The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played while the pedal is pressed. The soft pedal will not affect notes which are already playing when it is pressed. 2. Sostenuto Pedal If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the pedal while the note(s) are held, those notes will be sustained for as long as the pedal is held (as if the sustain pedal had been pressed) but all notes played thereafter will not be sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes are played “staccato.” NOTE • Organ, string and choir voices will continue to sound for as long as the sostenuto pedal is depressed. 3. Expression This mode allows control of dynamics during performance. 4. Sustain Pedal (ON/OFF) The sustain pedal functions in the same way as the damper pedal on an acoustic piano. In this case the AUX PEDAL operates as an ON/ OFF switch so when the pedal is pressed, notes played have a long sustain. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (dampens) any sustained notes. The sustain pedal functions in the same basic way as the damper pedal on an acoustic piano however, in this case the pedal operates as continuous controller so the further down the pedal is pressed, the longer notes will sustain (can be used like a half pedal effect). 6. Variation This mode allows switching of the Voice’s variation on or off. In this mode, the AUX PEDAL functions in the same manner as the [VARIATION] button on the panel. 7. Song Start/Stop This mode allows starting/stopping of song playback. In this mode, the AUX PEDAL functions in the same manner as the SONG [START/STOP] button on the panel. NOTE • We recommend that an optional foot controller FC7 be used with mode 3 (Expression). In mode 5 (Sustain Pedal [Continuous]), we recommend that the supplied pedal be used. For all other modes, we recommend either the supplied pedal or the optional FC4 foot switch be used. F5.2: Sustain Sample Depth ................................................................... 33 The GRAND PIANO 1 and 2 voices feature special “Sustain Samples” that recreate the unique resonance produced by an acoustic grand piano’s soundboard and strings when its damper pedal is pressed. The effect is can be controlled with the P-120/P-120S’s sustain pedal or the AUX PEDAL to which the sustain function has been assigned. This function lets you adjust the depth of this effect. The effect depth range is from 0 through 20. A setting of “0” produces no effect, while a setting of “20” produces maximum effect depth. Press the [–/ NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting of “12”. P-120/P-120S 35 The Function Mode F5.3: Soft Pedal Effect Depth ................................................................. This function sets the depth of the soft pedal effect. The effect depth range is from 1 to 5. A setting of “1” produces minimum effect depth while a setting of “5” produces maximum effect depth. Press the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting of “3”. F5.4: SUSTAIN PEDAL Type.................................................................... F5.5: AUX PEDAL Type............................................................................ Depending upon the pedal that is connected to the SUSTAIN PEDAL jack or AUX PEDAL jack, the effect produced by operating the pedal (ON/OFF, dynamics, etc.) might be reversed. If that is the case, use this setting to correct pedal operation. The setting range is from 1 to 2. Press the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting of “1”. NOTE • Make sure that the power is switched OFF when connecting or disconnecting the pedal. • If the SUSTAIN PEDAL type is set to “2”, disconnecting the sustain pedal while the power is switched on may leave the sustain active, causing notes to sustain indefinitely. In this case, switch the power “OFF” then back “ON”. F6: Metronome Volume______________________________ ■ SHORTCUT: You can jump directly to the metronome functions by pressing the [TEMPO/FUNCTION#] button while holding the METRONOME [START/ STOP] button. The volume of the metronome sound can be changed. After selecting “F6”, use the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons to set the metronome volume as required. The volume range is from 1 through 20.

Set to “0” if you don’t want to hear the part. 34 36 P-120/P-120S The Function Mode F8: MIDI Functions _________________________________ ● A Brief Introduction to MIDI MIDI, the Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a world-standard communication interface that allows MIDIcompatible musical instruments and equipment to share MIDI Cable musical information and control one another. This makes it possible to create “systems” of MIDI instruments and equipment that offer far greater versatility and control than is available with isolated instruments. For example, most MIDI keyboards (including the P-120/P-120S, of course) transmit note and velocity (touch response) information via the MIDI OUT connector whenever a note is played on the keyboard. If the MIDI OUT connector is connected to the MIDI IN connector of a second keyboard (synthesizer, etc.) or a tone generator (essentially a synthesizer with no keyboard), the second keyboard or tone generator will respond precisely to notes played on the original transmitting keyboard. The result is that you can effectively play two instruments at once, providing thick multi-instrument sounds. This same type of musical information transfer is used for MIDI sequence recording. A sequence recorder can be used to “record” MIDI data received from a P-120/P-120S, for example. When the recorded data is played back, the P-120/P-120S automatically “plays” the recorded performance in precise Data Being Recorded detail. The examples given above really only scratch the surMIDI IN MIDI OUT Sequence face. MIDI can do much, much more. The P-120/P-120S Recorder MIDI functions allow it to be used in fairly sophisticated MIDI OUT MIDI IN MIDI systems. MIDI IN MIDI OUT Synthesizer or Tone Generator Playback Data After selecting “F8.Y”, press the [+/YES▲] button to engage the MIDI function sub-mode, then use the [TEMPO/FUNCTION# ▼, ▲] buttons to select the desired MIDI function, as listed below. NOTE • The side-panel HOST SELECT switch must be set to “MIDI” in order to use the MIDI connectors. When you use the TO HOST connector, set the HOST SELECT switch to the appropriate position for the type of computer you are using (see page 41). In this situation, all MIDI settings described below will have affect on the MIDI signal in and out of the TO HOST connector. • Always use a high-quality MIDI cable to connect MIDI OUT to MIDI IN terminals. Never use MIDI cables longer than about 15 meters, since cables longer than this can pick up noise which can cause data errors. F8.1: MIDI Transmit Channel Selection ......................................................... F8.2: MIDI Receive Channel Selection .......................................................... Sequence Recorder MIDI OUT MIDI IN Tone Generator MIDI THRU (Set to receive on MIDI channel 2) MIDI IN (Set to receive on MIDI channel 1) 35 The MIDI system allows transmission and reception of MIDI data on 16 different channels. Multiple channels have been implemented to allow selective control of certain instruments or devices connected in series. For example, a single MIDI sequence recorder could be used to “play” two different instruments or tone generators. One of the instruments or tone generators could be set to receive only on channel 1, while the other is set to receive on channel 2. In this situation the first instrument or tone generator will respond only to channel-1 information transmitted by the sequence recorder, while the second instrument or tone generator will respond only to channel-2 information. This allows the sequence recorder to “play” two completely different parts on the receiving instruments or tone generators. P-120/P-120S 37 The Function Mode In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and receiving equipment must be matched for proper data transfer. A “Multi-timbre” receive mode is also available, which allows simultaneous reception of different parts on all 16 MIDI channels, allowing the P-120/P-120S to play multi-channel song data received from a music computer or sequencer. There’s also a “1-2” mode which allows simultaneous reception on channels 1 and 2. Use the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons to select the desired transmit or receive channel. The transmit channel parameter can also be turned “OFF” if you don’t want the P-120/P-120S to transmit any MIDI data. To select the multi-timbre receive mode, set the receive channel to “ALL”. Select “12” for multi-timbre reception on channels 1 and 2 only. Press the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting: transmit = “1”; receive = “ALL”. NOTE • In the dual mode first voice data is transmitted on its set channel, and in the split mode right voice data is transmitted on its set channel. In the dual mode second voice data is transmitted on the next greater channel number of the set channel, and in the split mode left voice data is transmitted on the next greater channel number of the set channel. In either mode, no data is transmitted if the transmit channel is set to “OFF”. • Demo/preset song data and recorder playback data are not transmitted via MIDI. • No MIDI reception occurs when the demo/preset song mode is engaged. • Program change and other like channel messages received will not affect the P-120/P-120S’s panel settings or what is being played on the keyboard. F8.3: Local Control ON/OFF ........................................................................... “Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the P-120/P-120S keyboard controls its internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the keyboard. This situation is “Local Control On” since the internal tone generator is controlled locally by its own keyboard. Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that the P-120/P-120S keyboard does not play the internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector when notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN connector. Use the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons to turn local control “On” or “OFF”. Press [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “On”. F8.4: Program Change ON/OFF ..................................................................... Normally the P-120/P-120S will respond to MIDI program change numbers received from an external keyboard or other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly numbered voice to be selected on the corresponding channel (the keyboard voice does not change). The P-120/P-120S will normally also send a MIDI program change number whenever one of its voices is selected, causing the correspondingly numbered voice or program to be selected on the external MIDI device if the device is set up to receive and respond to MIDI program change numbers. This function makes it possible to cancel program change number reception and transmission so that voices can be selected on the P-120/P-120S without affecting the external MIDI device. Use the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons to turn program change transmission and reception “On” or “OFF”. Press the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “On”. NOTE • For information on program change numbers for each of the P-120/P-120S’s voices, refer to page 51 in the MIDI Data Format section. 36 38 P-120/P-120S The Function Mode F8.5: Control Change ON/OFF ....................................................................... Normally the P-120/P-120S will respond to MIDI control change data received from an external MIDI device or keyboard, causing the voice on the corresponding channel to be affected by pedal and other “control” settings received from the controlling device (the keyboard voice is not affected). The P-120/P-120S also transmits MIDI control change information when the pedal or other appropriate controls are operated. This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission so that, for example, the P-120/P-120S’s pedal and other controls can be operated without affecting an external MIDI device. Use the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons to turn control change transmission and reception “On” or “OFF”. Press the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “On”. NOTE • For information on control changes that can be used with the P-120/P-120S, refer to the MIDI Data Format on page 50. F8.6: MIDI Transmit Transpose ....................................................................... This function allows the MIDI note data transmitted by the P-120/P-120S to be transposed up or down in semitone increments by up to plus or minus 12 semitones. The pitch of the P-120/P-120S itself is not affected. Use the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons to set the desired amount of MIDI transmit transposition. The range is from “–12” (down one octave) through “0” (no transposition) to “12” (up one octave). Press the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “0”. F8.7: Panel/Status Transmit............................................................................ This function causes all the current P-120/P-120S panel settings (selected voice, etc.) to be transmitted via the MIDI OUT terminal. This is particularly useful if you will be recording performances to a MIDI sequence recorder such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3 which will be used to control the P-120/P-120S on playback. By transmitting the P-120/P-120S panel settings and recording them on the MIDI sequence recorder prior to the actual performance data, the P-120/P-120S will be automatically restored to the same settings when the performance is played back. Press the [+/YES▲] button to transmit the panel/status data. “End” will appear on the LED display when the data has been successfully transmitted. NOTE • See page 51 for list of the “Panel Data Contents” transmitted by this function. • Panel setting data that is transmitted to an external device can only be reloaded on another P-120/P-120S. Panel setting data can also be directly transferred to or from another P-120/P-120S. F8.8: Bulk Data Dump ..................................................................................... This function is used to transmit all data stored in the User Song Recorder memory to a MIDI data storage device such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3, other sequence recorders, or MIDI compatible computers. Press the [+/YES▲] button to begin bulk transmission. “End” will appear on the LED display when the data has been successfully transmitted. NOTE • User song recorder data that is transmitted to an external device can only be reloaded on another P-120/P120S. Recorder data can also be directly transferred to or from another P-120/P-120S. 37 • The reload operation cannot be executed when the demo/preset song mode or user song recorder is in operation, or when the Function mode is engaged. • No MIDI note/panel data transmission or data reception occurs during a bulk data dump transmit operation. P-120/P-120S 39 The Function Mode F9: Backup Functions ______________________________ After selecting “F9.Y”, press the [+/YES▲] button to engage the backup function sub-mode, then use the [TEMPO/FUNCTION# ▼, ▲] buttons to select the desired backup function, as listed below. NOTE • The backup settings themselves, and the contents of the user song recorder memory, are always backed up. • Even if the Backup is turned on, factory presets can be recalled at any time (see page 44). The factory setting list is found on page 49. Even if backup is turned on via one of the functions described below, the data will only be retained in memory for about 1 week if the power is not turned on during this time. If the backup period is exceeded, all settings will be reset to their default values. If you want to retain the backup settings for longer periods, be sure to turn the power switch on for a few minutes at least once a week.

NOTE • When connecting the P-120/P-120S to a personal computer, first turn the power to both the P-120/P-120S and the computer OFF before connecting the cable and setting the HOST SELECT switch. After connecting the cable and making the appropriate HOST SELECT switch setting, turn the power to the computer on first, then turn on the P-120/P-120S. • When not using the [TO HOST] terminal of the P-120/P-120S, make sure the cable is disconnected from the [TO HOST] terminal. If the cable is left connected, the P-120/P-120S may not function properly. • “ HS(” will appear in the display if the host computer is not turned on, the connecting cable is not properly connected, the HOST SELECT switch is not in the proper position, or the MIDI driver or MIDI application is not active. In this case, turn the power off on both the P-120/P-120S and the computer, and check the cable connection and the position of the HOST SELECT switch. Once the connection and HOST SELECT switch position is verified, turn the power of the computer on first, then the P-120/P-120S, to check if the MIDI driver and MIDI application function properly. • When the HOST SELECT switch is set to “Mac”, “PC-1”, or “PC-2, no data transfer occurs via the MIDI connectors.

Troubleshooting If you encounter what appears to be a malfunction, please check the following points before assuming that your P-120/P-120S is faulty. 1. No Power Is the AC adaptor’s DC plug connected to the main unit? Is the AC cable plugged into the AC adaptor and an AC wall outlet? Please check all connections. (page 10) 6. Interference Appears On Radio or TV Sets Located Near the P-120/P-120S The P-120/P-120S contains digital circuitry which can generate radio-frequency noise. The solution is to move the P-120/P-120S further away from the affected equipment, or vice versa. 2. No Sound or Sound Output is Low Is the MASTER VOLUME control turned up to a reasonable listening level? Make sure a pair of headphones is not connected to the headphones jack (when the SPEAKER switch is set to the “NORMAL” position). If the SPEAKER switch is set to the “OFF” position set it to “NORMAL” or “ON” (page 11). Also make sure that the Local Control (page 38) is ON. 7. Distorted Sound When the P-120/P-120S is Connected to An External Amplifier/ Speaker System. If the P-120/P-120S is connected to a stereo system or instrument amplifier and the sound is distorted, reduce the P-120/P-120S’s [MASTER VOLUME], and/or the volume of the external equipment to a level at which the distortion ceases. 3. The speakers do not switch off when a pair of headphones is connected. The SPEAKER switch may be switched “ON”. Set the SPEAKER switch to the “NORMAL” position (page 11). 8. Noise is heard from the speakers or headphones. The noise may be due to interference caused by the use of a mobile phone in close proximity to the P120/P-120S. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the P-120/P-120S. 4. The P-120/P-120S Reproduces Radio or TV Sound This can occur if there is a high-power transmitter in your vicinity. Contact your Yamaha dealer. ● If “Scn” appears on the display an internal malfunction has occurred. In this case, contact your Yamaha dealer. 5. Intermittent Static Noise This is usually due to turning ON or OFF a household appliance or other electronic equipment which is fed by the same AC mains line as your P-120/P120S. 42 44 P-120/P-120S Voice Descriptions Voice Descriptions/Beschreibung der Stimmen/Descriptions des voix/ Descripciones de las voces Voice Name GRAND PIANO 1 VARIATION GRAND PIANO 2 VARIATION E.PIANO 1 VARIATION E.PIANO 2 VARIATION HARPSICHORD Touch Dynamic Key-off Response Sampling*1 Sampling*2 O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O — O O — — O — — — O O O — O — — O — — O O — — O Voice Descriptions Newly-recorded samples from a full concert grand piano.
