IMPORTANT



Check Your Power Supply



Make sure that your local AC mains vol-

tage matches the voltage specified on

the name plate on the bottom panel. In

some areas a voltage selector may be

provided on the bottom panel of the

main keyboard unit near the power

cord. Make sure that the voltage selec-

tor is set for the voltage in your area.

The voltage selector is set at 240V

when the unit is initially shipped. To

change the setting use a “minus” screw-

driver to rotate the selector dial so that

the correct voltage appears next to the

pointer on the panel.



WICHTIG



Überprüfung der Stromversorgung



Vergewissern Sie sich vor dem Ansch-

ließen an das Stromnetz, daß die ör-

tliche Netzspannung den Betriebsspan-

nungswerten auf dem Typenschild an

der Unterseite des Instruments ents-

pricht. In bestimmten Verkaufsgebieten

ist das Instrument mit einem Span-

nungswähler an der Unterseite neben

der Netzkabeldurchführung ausgestat-

tet. Falls vorhanden, muß der Span-

nungswähler auf die örtliche Netzspan-

nung eingestellt werden. Der Span-

nungswähler wurde werkseitig auf 240

V voreingestellt. Zum Verstellen drehen

Sie den Spannungsregler mit einem

Schlitzschraubendreher, bis der Zeiger

auf den korrekten Spannungswert weist.



IMPORTANTE

Verifique la alimentación de corriente



Asegúrese de que tensión de alimenta-

ción de CA de su área corresponde con

la tensión especificada en la placa de

características del panel inferior de la

unidad del teclado principal, cerca del

cable de alimentación. Asegúrese de

que el selector de tensión esté ajustado

a la tensión de su área. El selector de

tensión se ajusta a 240V cuando la uni-

dad sale de fábrica. Para cambiar el

ajuste, emplee un destornillador de ca-

beza “recta” para girar el selector de

modo que aparezca la tensión correcta

al lado del indicador del panel.



IMPORTANT

Contrôler la source d’alimentation



Vérifiez que la tension spécifiée sur le

panneau arrière correspond à la tension

du secteur. Dans certaines régions, l’in-

strument peut être équipé d’un sélec-

teur de tension situé sur le panneau in-

férieur du clavier à proximité du cordon

d’alimentation. Vérifiez que ce sélec-

teur est bien réglé en fonction de la ten-

sion secteur de votre région. Le sélec-

teur de tension est réglé sur 240 V au

départ d’usine. Pour modifier ce ré-

glage, utilisez un tournevis à lame plate

pour tourner le sélecteur afin de mettre

l’indication correspondant à la tension

de votre région vis à vis du repère trian-

gulaire situé sur le panneau.

beyond repair, or for some reason its useful life is consid-

ered to be at an end, please observe all local, state, and

federal regulations that relate to the disposal of products

that contain lead, batteries, plastics, etc.

the right to change or modify any of the specifications

without notice or obligation to update existing units.

SPECIAL MESSAGE SECTION

Model _____________________________________

Serial No. __________________________________

Purchase Date ______________________________

• Take care that the key cover does not pinch your fingers, and do not

insert a finger or hand in the key cover gap.

• Never insert or drop paper or metallic or other objects between the slits of

the key cover and the keyboard. If this happens, immediately turn off the

power and remove the electric plug from the outlet and have the instru-

ment inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

• Do not place the instrument against a wall (allow at least 3 cm/one-inch

from the wall), since this can cause inadequate air circulation, and possi-

bly result in the instrument overheating.

• Read carefully the attached documentation explaining the assembly pro-

cess. Failure to assemble the instrument in the proper sequence might

result in damage to the instrument or even injury.

• Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high or un-

comfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If

you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physi-

cian.

■USING THE BENCH (if included)

• Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench. Using it as a tool or

step-ladder 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.

• Do not attempt to adjust the bench height while sitting on the bench,

since this can cause excessive force to be imposed on the adjustment

mechanism, possibly resulting in damage to the mechanism or even in-

jury.

• If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten

them periodically using the included tool.

■SAVING USER DATA

• Save all data to an external device such as the Yamaha DOU-10 Disk

Orchestra Unit in order to help prevent the loss of important data due to a

malfunction or user operating error.

Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modi-

fications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

PRECAUTIONS

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING

* Please keep these precautions 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:

• 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 immedi-

ately 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.

• If the power 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 electric plug from the outlet, and have the instru-

ment inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required

voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.

• Before cleaning the instrument, always remove the electric plug from the

outlet. 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.

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 place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radia-

tors, 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.

• When removing the electric plug from an outlet, always hold the plug

itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.

• 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.

• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be

used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

• 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.

• 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 near other electrical products such as televi-

sions, radios, or speakers, since this might cause interference which can

affect proper operation of the other products.

• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might acci-

dentally fall over.

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.

• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint

thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.

Also, do not place vinyl or plastic objects on the instrument, since this

might discolor the panel or keyboard.

• Gently remove dust and dirt with a soft cloth. Do not wipe too hard since

small particles of dirt can scratch the instrument’s finish.

• Bumping the surface of the instrument with metal, porcelain, or other hard

objects can cause the finish to crack or peel. Use caution.

• 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.

Preparation

If you will be using sheet music with your

Clavinova, raise the music stand built into its top

panel by lifting the rear edge of the music stand,

then flip down the music stand braces and engage

them with the corresponding recesses.

The music stand can be lowered after slightly

lifting it and folding the two brackets which sup-

port it against the back of the stand.

To open the CLP-555 key cover lift it just

enough to clear the keys (do not lift excessively)

then slide the cover back into the main unit. To

close the cover slide it forward all the way and then

lower it gently until it closes completely.

The Music Stand.............................................................................................................................................................................

The Key Cover...................................................................................................................................................................................

Opening and Closing the Lid...........................................................................................................................................

• Hold the cover with both hands when moving it, and

do not release it until it is fully opened or closed. Be

careful to avoid catching fingers (yours or others)

between the cover and main unit.

• Do not place objects on top of the key cover. Small

objects placed on the key cover may fall inside the

main unit when the cover is opened.

Z Raise the music stand as described in “The

Music Stand”, above.

X Raise and hold the right side of the lid (viewed

from the keyboard end of the instrument).

C Raise the lid stay and carefully lower the lid so

that the end of the stay fits into the recess in

the lid.

• Make sure that the end of the stay fits securely in

the lid recess. If the stay is not properly seated in

the recess the lid may fall causing damage or injury.

• Be careful that you or others do not bump the stay

while the lid is raised. The stay may be bumped out

of the lid recess causing the lid to fall.

• Be careful not to catch your fingers when raising or

lowering the lid.

Be careful of fingers when opening or closing.

Connections

1 AUX IN L/L+R and R Jacks

These jacks are intended for use with an external tone generator mod-

ule such as the Yamaha DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit. The stereo outputs

from the external tone generator module are connected to the AUX IN L/

L+R and R jacks, allowing the sound of the tone generator to be repro-

duced via the Clavinova’s internal sound system and speakers. A line-level

mono source can be connected to the L/L+R jack.

• The input signal from the AUX IN jacks is delivered to the AUX OUT jacks,

but is not affected by the Clavinova’s volume control or reverb effect.

2 AUX OUT L/L+R and R Jacks

The AUX OUT L/L+R and R jacks deliver the output of the Clavinova for

connection to an instrument amplifier, mixing console, PA system, or record-

ing equipment. If you will be connecting the Clavinova to a monaural sound

system, use only the L/L+R jack. 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 Clavinova’s sound.

• The AUX OUT jack signal must never be returned to the AUX IN jacks, either

directly or through external equipment.

3 MIDI IN, THRU and OUT Connectors

The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external MIDI

device (such as the DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit) which can be used to

control the Clavinova. The MIDI THRU connector re-transmits any data

received at the MIDI IN connector, allowing “chaining” of several MIDI

instruments or other devices. The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI

data generated by the Clavinova (e.g. note and velocity data produced by

playing the Clavinova keyboard).

More details on MIDI are given in “MIDI FUNCTIONS” on page 28.

4 TO HOST Connector & HOST SELECT Switch

This jack and selector switch allow direct connection to a personal

computer for sequencing and other music applications — without the need

for a separate MIDI interface. See page 32 for details.

● PHONES Jacks

(Bottom Panel)

Two pairs of standard pair of stereo headphones can be plugged in here

for private practice or late-night playing. The internal speaker system is

automatically shut off when a pair of headphones is plugged into either of

the PHONES jacks.

default depth settings are different for each voice).

The Pedals

Soft (Left) 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.

The left pedal can also be assigned to song start/stop operation via

the “Left Pedal Mode” described on page 27.

The CLP-555 has three foot pedals that produce a range of expressive ef-

fects similar to those produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano.

Damper (Right) Pedal ................................................................................

The damper pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on

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

All notes are produced at the same volume no matter how hard the

keyboard is played. This is an ideal setting for voices which normally

have no keyboard sensitivity (i.e. harpsichord and organ).

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.

Transposition

Use the [–/NO] or [+/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.

• Notes below and above the A-1 … C7 range of the Clavinova sound one

octave higher and lower, respectively.

The Clavinova’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 Clavinova 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.

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:

• An alternative tuning method is available in the Function mode — page 23.

• The keyboard method of pitch control, described above, has no effect when

LOCAL OFF is active (see “MIDI FUNCTIONS,” page 28).

The Metronome & Tempo Control

The CLP-555 built-in metronome is a convenient feature for practice, and it

can also provide a solid rhythmic guide when recording using the Recorder

feature, described below.

The Metronome

The metronome sound is alternately turned on and off by pressing

the [METRONOME] button. When on, the beat indicator flashes at the

current tempo.

Metronome Volume ......................................................................................

The volume of the metronome sound can be adjusted by using the

[–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons while holding the [METRONOME]

button. The volume range is from 1 through 20 (the current volume

setting appears on the LED display while the [METRONOME] button

is held). A setting of “1” produces minimum sound, while a setting of

“20” produces maximum metronome volume. Press the [–/NO] and [+/

YES] buttons simultaneously while holding the [METRONOME]

button to recall the default setting: “10”.

Other Metronome Functions .............................................................

The time signature (“beat”) of the metronome can be changed via

the metronome “Beat” function in the Function mode — page 27. The

Function mode also has an alternative method for adjusting the metro-

nome volume — page 27.

Tempo Control

The tempo of the metronome and recorder playback (the recorder is

described in the next section) can be set from 32 to 280 beats per

minute by using the [TEMPO/SONG t/s] buttons. The [t] button

decreases the tempo and the [s] button increases the tempo. The

selected tempo appears on the LED display in the normal play mode

and while the [TEMPO/SONG t/s] buttons are being used to adjust

the tempo. The default tempo (120 or the recorded song tempo when

the recorder contains data and the playback track lamp is lit) can be

recalled by simultaneously pressing the [t] and [s] buttons.

Using the Recorder

The CLP-555 features a two-track recorder that let you record what you play

on the keyboard and then play it back. Two tracks mean that you can “overdub”

one part on top of another, using a different voice if you like. The recorder fea-

ture is a useful adjunct to any keyboard study program, since it lets you hear

exactly how you sound from the listener’s perspective. It can also be just plain

fun.

The recorder actually records the following data:

■ Entire Song

● Tempo ● Reverb type & depth ● Effect type

■ Individual Tracks

● Notes played ● Voice selection ● Voice variation

● Dual mode voices ● Split mode voices

● Damper pedal ● Soft pedal

● Sostenuto pedal (not recorded as an initial setting)

● Effect depth ● Dual mode functions (F3)

● Split mode functions (F4)

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.

Engage the Record Ready Mode ..................................................

Press the RECORDER [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.

• The record ready mode cannot be engaged while the demo/piano song

mode is engaged.

Select the Record Track..........................................................................

When the record mode is engaged in the previous step, the last-

recorded track will automatically be selected for recording and its

indicator — i.e. the [1] or [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.

• The track button indicators of tracks which contain previously recorded

data will glow green (unless the track is turned off as described below).

The previously-recorded data on the non-record track will normally be

played back as you record, so you can play along with a previously-

recorded track. If you don’t want to hear the previously recorded track as

you record, press the playback track button before pressing the [REC]

button (step 1, above) so that its indicator goes out.

• Recording on a track which already contains data 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 “21”), and the rightmost dot on the LED display will flash at the

current METRONOME tempo setting.

All data can be erased from either of the recorder’s tracks by engag-

ing the record mode, selecting the track you want to erase, and then

pressing the [START/STOP] button twice without recording any data.

Changing the Initial Settings.............................................................

The initial voice (including dual mode), damper pedal, soft pedal,

tempo, reverb type, reverb depth, and effect settings made in step 1 of the

recording procedure are actually recorded by the CLP-555. 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 [START/STOP] button or a key

on the keyboard, either of which will start recording and erase all previ-

ous 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 (this also cancels

data for the entire song).

Playback

To play back what you’ve recorded, first 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 RECORDER [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 [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.

• It is possible to play along on the keyboard during playback.

• The playback volume and tempo can be adjusted by using the [MASTER VOLUME]

control and [TEMPO/SONG] buttons (press both [TEMPO/SONG] buttons simulta-

neously to recall the default tempo).

• All 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 DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit by

using the Bulk Dump function described on page 30.

• The track indicators will not light automatically when the power is turned on even if

the recorder contains data. It is therefore necessary to press the track buttons so

that the corresponding green indicators light before starting RECORDER playback.

It is also a good idea to press the track buttons to check if the tracks contain data

before recording. If the green indicator lights when the corresponding track button

is pressed, that track contains data which will be erased and replaced by the newly-

recorded data.

• If the metronome is being used during playback, the metronome will stop when

playback is stopped.

• During recorder playback, the volume of a track which is turned off will always be

“0” (i.e. the “Piano Song Part Cancel Volume” function — page 27 — only affects

piano song playback.

• The playback data is not transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector.

• Playback cannot be started when the demo/piano song mode or function mode is

engaged. Playback can be started from the function mode, however, after one of

the track buttons — [1] or [2] — is pressed.

• Playback cannot be started when the recorder contains no data, or when both track

427.0 Hz to 453.0 Hz (corresponding to the A3 note’s Hz). Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES]

buttons simultaneously to recall the default value: 440 Hz.

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:

In addition to the standard Equal Temperament tuning, the CLP-555 includes 6 classic

tunings that you can select and use to play music of the corresponding period, or experiment

with in a more modern context. The tunings are:

1: Equal Temperament

2: Pure Major

3: Pure Minor

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 Clavinova, 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 Clavinova, for example. When the

recorded data is played back, the Clavinova automatically “plays”

the recorded performance in precise detail.

The examples given above really only scratch the surface. MIDI

can do much, much more. The CLP-555 MIDI functions allow it to

be used in fairly sophisticated MIDI systems.

After selecting “F8.Y”, press the [+/YES] button to engage the MIDI function sub-mode, then

use the [<] and [>] buttons to select the desired MIDI function, as listed below.

• The rear-panel HOST SELECT switch must be set to “MIDI” in order to use the MIDI connectors.

• 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 differ-

ent 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.

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 Clavinova 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 trans-

mit channel parameter can also be turned “OFF” if you don’t want the Clavinova 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 the second voice data is transmitted on channel 2, and in the split mode the left-voice data

is transmitted on channel 2. In either mode, no data is transmitted if the transmit channel parameter is set to

“OFF”.

• Demo/piano song data and recorder playback data are not transmitted via MIDI.

• No MIDI reception occurs when the demo/piano song mode is engaged.

• Received MIDI data will not affect the Clavinova’s panel settings or what is being played on the keyboard —

except for reverb type, reverb depth, and effect on/off data which will affect the Clavinova settings.

F8.3: Local Control ON/OFF........................................................................................................................

“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the

Clavinova 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 Clavinova 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.

When using the DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit with the Clavinova, for example, Local Control

should be turned OFF when recording using the DOU-10 voices only, and ON when recording the

Clavinova voices while listening to playback of the DOU-10 voices.

Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to turn local control “On” or “OFF”.

Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting: “On”.

F8.4: Program Change ON/OFF...............................................................................................................

Normally the Clavinova will respond to MIDI program change numbers received from an exter-

nal keyboard or other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly numbered voice to be selected on

the corresponding channel (the keyboard voice does not change). The Clavinova will normally also

send a MIDI program change number whenever one of its voices is selected, causing the correspond-

ingly 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 Clavinova 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”.

F8.5: Control Change ON/OFF......................................................................................................

Normally the Clavinova will respond to MIDI control change data received from an exter-

nal 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, but reverb depth data will affect the Clavinova settings). The Clavinova also

transmits MIDI control change information when one of its pedals or other appropriate con-

trols are operated.

This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission so

that, for example, the Clavinova pedals 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”.

F8.6: MIDI Transmit Transpose......................................................................................................

This function allows the MIDI note data transmitted by the Clavinova to be transposed up

or down in semitone increments by up to plus or minus 12 semitones. The pitch of th-

Clavinova 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” (u

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 Clavinova control 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 DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit

which will be used to control the Clavinova on playback. By transmitting the Clavinova panel

settings and recording them on the MIDI sequence recorder prior to the actual performance

data, the Clavinova 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.

• See page 36 for list of the “Panel Data Contents” transmitted by this function.

• Panel setting data can only be transferred between the same models (data cannot, for example, be

transferred between a CLP-555 and CLP-411).

F8.8: Bulk Data Dump ............................................................................................................................

This function is used to transmit all data stored in the Recorder memory to a MIDI data

storage device such as the Yamaha DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit, 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.

• Bulk dump will not function when the recorder is in operation.

• Recorder data can only be transferred between the same models (data cannot, for example, be

transferred between a CLP-555 and CLP-411).

• No MIDI note/panel data transmission or data reception occurs during a bulk dump transmit operation.

The Function Mode

Backup Functions

After selecting “F9.Y”, press the [+/YES] button to engage the backup function sub-mode,

then use the [<] and [>] buttons to select the desired backup function, as listed below.

• The backup settings themselves, and the contents of the recorder memory, are always backed up.

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.

F9.2: MIDI.............................................................................................................................................................

• When using the [TO HOST] terminal of the CLP-555, first turn the power off on both the CLP-555 and the

computer before connecting the cable. After connecting the cable, turn the power of the computer on first,

then the CLP-555.

• When not using the [TO HOST] terminal of the CLP-555, make sure the cable is disconnected from the [TO

HOST] terminal. If the cable is left connected, the CLP-555 may not function properly.

• When the HOST SELECT switch is set to “Mac”, “PC-1”, or “PC-2, no data transfer occurs via the MIDI

connectors. To use the MIDI connectors for connection via a standard MIDI interface, set the HOST SELECT

switch to “MIDI”.

Connecting to a Personal Computer

Although the CLP-555 can be connected to a personal computer via the MIDI

IN/OUT connectors and a MIDI interface, the TO HOST connector and HOST

SELECT switch allow direct connection to Apple Macintosh or IBM-PC/AT per-

sonal computers for sequencing and other music applications without the need

for a separate MIDI interface.

Connect the TO HOST connector of the Clavinova to the modem or

printer port on your Macintosh, depending on which port your MIDI

software is using for MIDI data communication, using a standard

Macintosh 8-pin system peripheral cable. Set the HOST SELECT

switch to the “Mac” position.

You may also have to make other MIDI interface settings on the

computer side, depending on the type of software you use (refer to your

software owner’s manual). In any case the clock speed should be set to

1 MHz.

POWER

Troubleshooting

If you encounter what appears to be a malfunction, please check the following points before assuming

that your Clavinova is faulty.

1. No Sound When the Power is Turned ON

Is the AC plug properly connected to the Clavinova

and an AC wall outlet? Check the AC connection

carefully. Is the MASTER VOLUME control turned

up to a reasonable listening level?

Also make sure that a pair of headphones is not

plugged into the PHONES jack, and that the Local

Control (page 29) is ON.

2. The Damper Pedal Doesn’t Work

If the damper pedal doesn’t work, or notes are

sustained even when the pedal is not pressed, make

sure that the pedal cord is properly plugged into the

main unit (page 46).

3. The Clavinova Reproduces Radio or TV Sound

This can occur if there is a high-power transmitter

in your vicinity. Contact your Yamaha dealer.

4. Intermittent Static Noise

This is usually due to turning ON or OFF a house-

hold appliance or other electronic equipment which is

fed by the same AC mains line as your Clavinova.

5. Interference Appears On Radio or TV Sets

Located Near the Clavinova

The Clavinova contains digital circuitry which can

generate radio-frequency noise. The solution is to

move the Clavinova further away from the affected

equipment, or vice versa.

6. Distorted Sound When the Clavinova is Con-

nected to An External Amplifier/Speaker

System

If the Clavinova is connected to a stereo system or

instrument amplifier and the sound is distorted, reduce

the setting of the Clavinova volume control to a level

at which the distortion ceases.

● If “Scn” appears on the display an internal malfunction has occurred. In this case, contact your Yamaha

dealer.

WARNING- When using any electrical or electronic prod-

uct, basic precautions should always be followed. These pre-

cautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. Read all Safety Instructions, Installation Instructions,

Special Message Section items, and any Assembly Instructions

found in this manual BEFORE marking any connections, in-

cluding connection to the main supply.

2. Main Power Supply Verification: Yamaha products are

manufactured specifically for the supply voltage in the area

where they are to be sold. If you should move, or if any doubt

exists about the supply voltage in your area, please contact

your dealer for supply voltage verification and (if applicable)

instructions. The required supply voltage is printed on the

name plate. For name plate location, please refer to the graphic

found in the Special Message Section of this manual.

3. This product may be equipped with a polarized plug

(one blade wider than the other). If you are unable to insert the

plug into the outlet, turn the plug over and try again. If the

problem persists, contact an electrician to have the obsolete

outlet replaced. Do NOT defeat the safety purpose of the plug.

4. Some electronic products utilize external power sup-

plies or adapters. Do NOT connect this type of product to any

power supply or adapter other than one described in the owners

manual, on the name plate, or specifically recommended by

Yamaha.

5. WARNING: Do not place this product or any other

objects on the power cord or place it in a position where any-

one could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over power or

connecting cords of any kind. The use of an extension cord is

not recommended! If you must use an extension cord, the

minimum wire size for a 25' cord (or less) is 18 AWG. NOTE:

The smaller the AWG number, the larger the current handling

capacity. For longer extension cords, consult a local electri-

cian.

6. Ventilation: Electronic products, unless specifically

designed for enclosed installations, should be placed in loca-

tions that do not interfere with proper ventilation. If instruc-

tions for enclosed installations are not provided, it must be

assumed that unobstructed ventilation is required.

7. Temperature considerations: Electronic products

should be installed in locations that do not significantly con-

tribute to their operating temperature. Placement of this prod-

uct close to heat sources such as; radiators, heat registers and

other devices that produce heat should be avoided.

8. This product was NOT designed for use in wet/damp loca-

tions and should not be used near water or exposed to rain. Exam-

ples of wet/damp locations are; near a swimming pool, spa, tub,

sink, or wet basement.

9. This product should be used only with the components

supplied or; a cart, rack, or stand that is recommended by the

manufacturer. If a cart, rack, or stand is used, please observe all

safety markings and instructions that accompany the accessory

product.

10. The power supply cord (plug) should be disconnected from

the outlet when electronic products are to be left unused for ex-

tended periods of time. Cords should also be disconnected when

there is a high probability of lightening and/or electrical storm

activity.

11. Care should be taken that objects do not fall and liquids are

not spilled into the enclosure through any openings that may exist.

12. Electrical/electronic products should be serviced by a

qualified service person when:

a. The power supply cord has been damaged; or

b. Objects have fallen, been inserted, or liquids have been

spilled into the enclosure through openings; or

c. The product has been exposed to rain: or

d. The product dose not operate, exhibits a marked change

in performance; or

e. The product has been dropped, or the enclosure of the

product has been damaged.

13. Do not attempt to service this product beyond that de-

scribed in the user-maintenance instructions. All other servicing

should be referred to qualified service personnel.

14. This product, either alone or in combination with an ampli-

fier and headphones or speaker/s, may be capable of producing

sound levels that could cause permanent hearing loss. DO NOT

operate for a long period of time at a high volume level or at a

level that is uncomfortable. If you experience any hearing loss or

ringing in the ears, you should consult an audiologist.

IMPORTANT: The louder the sound, the shorter the time period

before damage occurs.

15. Some Yamaha products may have benches and/or acces-

sory mounting fixtures that are either supplied as a part of the

product or as optional accessories. Some of these items are de-

signed to be dealer assembled or installed Please make sure that

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES: Yamaha strives to pro-

duce 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:

Battery Notice: This product MAY contain a small non-

rechargable battery which (if applicable) is soldered in

place. The average life span of this type of battery is ap-

proximately five years. When replacement becomes nec-

essary, contact a qualified service representative to per-

form the replacement.

Warning: Do not attempt to recharge, disassemble, or

incinerate this type of battery. Keep all batteries away

from children. Dispose of used batteries promptly and as

regulated by applicable laws. Note: In some areas, the

servicer is required by law to return the defective parts.

However, you do have the option of having the servicer

dispose of these parts for you.

Disposal Notice: Should this product become damaged

beyond repair, or for some reason its useful life is consid-

ered to be at an end, please observe all local, state, and

federal regulations that relate to the disposal of products

that contain lead, batteries, plastics, etc.

NOTICE: Service charges incurred due to lack of knowl-

edge relating to how a function or effect works (when the

unit is operating as designed) are not covered by the

manufacturer’s warranty, and are therefore the owners

responsibility. Please study this manual carefully and con-

sult your dealer before requesting service.

NAME PLATE LOCATION: The graphic below indi-

cates the location of the name plate. The model number,

serial number, power requirements, etc., are located on

this plate. You should record the model number, serial

number, and the date of purchase in the spaces provided

PRODUCT SAFETY MARKINGS: Yamaha electronic

products may have either labels similar to the graphics

shown below or molded/stamped facsimiles of these

graphics on the enclosure. The explanation of these graph-

ics appears on this page. Please observe all cautions indi-

cated on this page and those indicated in the safety in-

struction section.

See bottom of Keyboard enclosure for graphic symbol markings

The exclamation point within the equi-

lateral triangle is intended to alert the

user to the presence of important oper-

ating and maintenance (servicing) in-

structions in the literature accompany-

ing the product.

The lightning flash with arrowhead

symbol, within the equilateral triangle,

is intended to alert the user to the pres-

ence of uninsulated “dangerous volt-

age” within the product’s enclosure that

may be of sufficient magnitude to con-

stitute a risk of electrical shock.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: All Yamaha electronic prod-

ucts are tested and approved by an independent safety

testing laboratory in order that you may be sure that when

it is properly installed and used in its normal and custom-

ary manner, all foreseeable risks have been eliminated.

DO NOT modify this unit or commission others to do so

unless specifically authorized by Yamaha. Product per-

formance and/or safety standards may be diminished.

Claims filed under the expressed warranty may be denied

if the unit is/has been modified. Implied warranties may

also be affected.

information contained in this manual is believed to be

correct at the time of printing. However, Yamaha reserves

the right to change or modify any of the specifications
