Please keep this manual in a safe and handy 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 place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators. Also,

do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, or place heavy objects on

it.

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

is printed on the name plate of the instrument.

• Use only the supplied power cord/plug.

• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have

accumulated on it.

• This instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not open the instrument

or attempt to disassemble or modify the internal components in any way. If it

should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it

inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

(For information on whether Bluetooth functionality is included or not, refer to page

• Radio waves may affect electro-medical devices.

- Do not use this product near medical devices or inside areas in which the use

of radio waves is restricted.

- Do not use this product within 15cm (6 in.) of persons with a heart pacemaker

implant.

• Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet

conditions, or place on it any containers (such as vases, bottles or glasses)

containing liquids which might spill into any openings. If any liquid such as water

seeps into the instrument, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power

cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha

service personnel.

• 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

• When one of the following problems occur, immediately turn off the power switch

and disconnect the electric plug from the outlet. Then have the device inspected

by Yamaha service personnel.

- The power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged.

- It emits unusual smells or smoke.

- Some object has been dropped into the instrument.

- There is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument.

CAUTION

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage

to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector.

Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the

outlet.

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

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

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

extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

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

fall over.

• When transporting or moving the instrument, always use two or more people.

Attempting to lift the instrument by yourself may damage your back, result in

other injury, or cause damage to the instrument itself.

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent damage to

the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them.

• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily

accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power

switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is

turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When

you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power cord

from the wall AC outlet.

• Though the wooden parts of this instrument have been designed and produced

with care concerning the environment and human health, in some rare instances

customers may sense an unusual odor or develop imitation in the eyes, due to the

coating material and adhesive.

To avoid this, we recommend that you observe the following:

1. Specially ventilate the room for several days after unpacking and installing

this instrument, since it has been packed in airtight conditions in order to

maintain quality during transportation.

2. If the room housing the instrument is small, continue to ventilate it normally,

either daily or periodically.

3. If you have left the instrument in a closed room for a long time under high

temperature, ventilate the room, then lower the temperature if possible before

using the instrument.

• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the

power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components,

set all volume levels to minimum.

• Be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum levels and

gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired

listening level.

• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the fallboard or instrument. Also

take care that the fallboard does not pinch your finger.

• Do not apply excessive force when closing the fallboard.

A fallboard equipped with the SOFT-CLOSE™ mechanism closes the cover

slowly. Applying excessive force to the fallboard when closing it could damage

the SOFT-CLOSE™ mechanism, and possibly result in injury to your hands and

fingers caught under the closing the fallboard.

• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the

fallboard, panel or keyboard. This could cause physical injury to you or others,

damage to the instrument or other property, or operational failure.

• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not

use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.

• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long period of time at a

high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss.

If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.

• Do not place the bench in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall

over.

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

or for any other purpose might result in accident or injury.

• Only one person should sit on the bench at a time, in order to prevent the

possibility of accident or injury.

• For benches that can be adjusted, do not 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 injury.

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

periodically using the specified tool in order to prevent the possibility of accident

or injury.

• Keep special watch over any small children so that they don’t fall off the rear of the

bench. Since the bench does not have a backrest, unsupervised use may result in

accident or injury.

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

Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (power lamp is off), electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level.

NOTICE

To avoid the possibility of malfunction/ damage to the product, damage to data, or damage to other property, follow the notices below.

 Handling

• 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. When you use the instrument along with an application on your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, we recommend that you set “Airplane

Mode” to “ON” on that device in order to avoid noise caused by communication.

• 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, damage to the internal components or unstable operation. (Verified operating temperature range: 5° –

40°C, or 41° – 104°F.)

• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.

• In the case of a model with a polished finish, bumping the surface of the instrument with metal, porcelain, or other hard objects can cause the finish to

crack or peel. Use caution.

 Maintenance

• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft and dry/slightly damp cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, alcohol, cleaning fluids, or chemical-

impregnated wiping cloths.

• In the case of a model with a polished finish, 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.

• During extreme changes in temperature or humidity, condensation may occur and water may collect on the surface of the instrument. If water is left, the

wooden parts may absorb the water and be damaged. Make sure to wipe any water off immediately with a soft cloth.

Hybrid Piano

NU1X

Combining over a century of experience in crafting world-class pianos with the latest in advanced

technology, Yamaha proudly introduces an instrument that is closer than ever to an actual acoustic

piano—equipped with every essential element pianists demand.

Authentic acoustic piano touch with special upright piano action and piano keyboard

The AvantGrand NU1X features a specially designed mechanism in which the keyboard action and the hammer

workings realistically reproduce those of an acoustic piano.

Moreover, the wood construction of the keyboard is the same as on an upright piano, giving the instrument even a

more realistic acoustic piano-like touch response.

Enjoy performing and practicing with the sound of famous grand pianos

This instrument puts the sound of several different renowned grand pianos at your fingertips, including the CFX,

Yamaha’s flagship concert grand piano—which delivers dynamic sound, from a brilliant high-range to powerful

bass—and the Bosendorfer

Imperial, a flagship grand piano known for its subtle and warm sound.

* Bosendorfer is a subsidiary company of Yamaha.

Natural sound distance sensation for headphone play  Page 15

This instrument features a binaural sampling sound designed especially for use with headphones. Binaural sampling

is a method which uses two microphones placed where the ears of a performer would be and records that piano

sound. Listening to the sound created through this method with headphones gives the impression of being immersed

in the sound, as if it was actually emanating from the piano.

Always in optimum condition, no need for tuning

Unlike acoustic pianos, this instrument does not need to be tuned. It always stays perfectly in tune even after long-

time use.

Playback and Recording functions to support your lessons and practice



Page 26, 28, 39

You can record your performance to this instrument and a USB flash drive, and improve your performance by

listening to the recording. Furthermore, this instrument has a Bluetooth audio function, letting you play back audio

data on this instrument by connecting with a Bluetooth-equipped device via Bluetooth.

If you omit this operation and close the fallboard, the music rest will hit the keyboard and may result in damage.

2 With both hands, open the folded top of the fallboard, and close it gently.

The fall board is equipped with the special SOFT-CLOSE™ mechanism which closes the cover slowly.

CAUTION

• Hold the fallboard with both hands when opening or closing it. Do not release it until it is fully opened or closed. Be care-

ful to avoid catching fingers (yours or others, especially children’s) between the fallboard and the unit.

• Do not apply excessive force when closing the fallboard. Applying excessive force to the fallboard when closing it could

damage the SOFT-CLOSE™ mechanism, and possibly result in injury to your hands and fingers caught under the clos-

ing fallboard.

• Do not place anything (such as metal objects or pieces of paper) on top of the fallboard. Small objects placed on the fall-

board may fall inside the unit when the fallboard is opened and may be nearly impossible to remove. Once inside, they

could cause electric shock, short circuit, fire or other serious damage to the instrument.

Since this instrument is equipped with two

[PHONES] jacks, you can connect two sets of

standard stereo headphones. If you are using only

one set of headphones, insert a plug into either

jack; this automatically shuts off the speakers.

CAUTION

Avoid listening to the instrument at a high volume level

through headphones for a long period of time, to prevent

hearing damage.

NOTICE

Do not hang anything other than the headphones on the

hanger. Otherwise, the instrument or the hanger may be dam-

aged.

Reproducing the Natural Sound Distance Sensation (when using Headphones)—Binaural Sampling

and Stereophonic Optimizer

This instrument features two advanced technologies that allow you to enjoy exceptionally realistic, natural sound,

even though listening on headphones.

 Binaural Sampling (“CFX Grand” Voice only)

Binaural sampling is a method that uses two special microphones set at the ear position of a performer and records

the sound from a piano as it is. Listening to the sound with this effect through headphones gives the impression of

being immersed in the sound, as if it was actually emanating from the piano. Moreover, you can enjoy the sound

naturally for a long time without ear strain. When the default Voice, “CFX Grand” (page 17) is selected, connect-

ing the headphones automatically enables the binaural sampling sound.

 Stereophonic Optimizer (Piano Voices other than “CFX Grand”)

The Stereophonic Optimizer is an effect which reproduces natural sound distance like the sound of binaural sam-

pling even though you hear it on headphones. When one of the Piano Voices other than “CFX Grand” (Display

numbers 2–5; page 17) is selected, connecting headphones enable the Stereophonic Optimizer.

Turning the Binaural Sampling and Stereophonic Optimizer function on/off

When headphones are connected, the sound from this instrument changed to the sound of Binaural Sampling or the

sound enhanced with the Stereophonic Optimizer. Since these sounds are optimized for listening with headphones,

we recommend that you set this function to “OFF” (as described below).

While holding down [PIANO/VOICE], press the C6 key repeatedly (if necessary) to turn this function on/off. The

specified value is shown on the display while both controls are held.

Default setting: On

Using Headphones

You should turn these functions off when:

• Playing the sound of this instrument with an external powered speaker system or a mixer, while monitoring the sound

output from this instrument on connected headphones.

• Making an audio recording (page 28) and then playing that recorded audio Song through speakers.

(Make sure to turn off these functions before audio recording.)

NOTE

Before connecting an external powered speaker system, be sure to read “Using an External Stereo System for Playback—AUX OUT [L/L+R] [R] jacks” (page 36).

The instrument has three pedals that produce a range of

expressive effects similar to those produced by the pedals on

an acoustic piano.

Damper Pedal (Right)

Pressing this pedal will sustain notes longer. Releasing this pedal immediately stops

(damps) any sustained notes. The damper pedal features a half-pedal function.

 Half-pedal function

This function allows the sustain length to vary depending on how far the pedal is

pressed. The farther you press the pedal, the more the sound sustains. For example, if

you press the damper pedal and all notes you are playing sound a bit murky and loud

with too much sustain, you can release the pedal half way to subdue the sustain (murk-

iness).

 To set the Half Pedal Point:

While holding down [PIANO/VOICE], press one of the A#4–E5 keys. This operation

sets the degree to which pressing the damper pedal applies the half-pedal effect. The

smaller the value, the shallower the half-pedal point. The larger the value, the deeper

the half-pedal point.

Sostenuto Pedal (Center)

Pressing this pedal while holding the notes will sustain the pressed notes (as if the

damper pedal had been pressed), but all subsequently played notes will not be sus-

tained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while the other notes are

played “staccato.”

Soft Pedal (Left)

Pressing this pedal will reduce the volume and slightly change the timbre of the notes.

The notes played before this pedal is pressed are not affected.

Using the Pedals

If you press and hold the damper pedal here,

all the notes shown will be sustained.

Setting range: -2 (A#4) – 4 (E5)

Default Setting: 0

GP Responsive Damper Pedal

This special pedal has been designed to provide enhanced tactile response and, when

pressed, is much closer in feel to the pedal of an actual grand piano. It makes it easier

to physically experience the half-pedal point and more easily apply the half-pedal

effect than other pedals.

A#4

NOTE

While the sostenuto pedal is held, the

Organ (Display numbers 12–14; page 17)

or Piano + Strings (Display number 15)

Voices sound continuously without decay

after the notes have been released.

If you press and hold the sostenuto pedal here, only

the notes held at this timing will be sustained.

On an actual acoustic piano, if you press the damper pedal and play a key, not only does the string of the

pressed key vibrate, it also causes other strings and the soundboard to vibrate, with each influencing the

rest, creating a rich and brilliant resonance that sustains and spreads. The VRM (Virtual Resonance Mod-

eling) technology featured in the NU1X reproduces the complicated interaction of both string and sound-

board resonance faithfully using a virtual musical instrument (physical modeling), and makes the sound

more like a real acoustic piano. Since instantaneous resonance is made at the moment according to the

state of the keyboard or pedal, you can vary the sound expressively by changing the timing of your press-

ing the keys, and the timing and depth of your pressing the pedal.

The default setting of this function is on. Simply by selecting a VRM Voice (page 17), you can enjoy the

VRM effect. You can turn the VRM function on or off, and adjust the depth.

Aliquot is a stringing method for pianos that uses extra, un-struck strings in the upper

octaves to enhance the tone. These strings sympathetically vibrate with other strings in

an acoustic piano, resonating with overtones, and adding richness, brilliance and com-

plex color to the sound. Since they do not have damper, they will continue sounding

even after you release your hands from the keyboard.

Display Key Scale Description

C5 Equal

The pitch range of each octave is divided equally into twelve parts, with each half-step evenly spaced in

pitch. This is the most commonly used tuning in music today.

C#5 Pure Major

These tunings preserve the pure mathematical intervals of each scale, especially for triad chords (root,

third, fifth). You can hear this best in actual vocal harmonies—such as choirs and a cappella singing.

D5 Pure Minor

D#5 Pythagorean

This scale was devised by the famous Greek philosopher and is created from a series of perfect fifths,

which are collapsed into a single octave. The 3rd in this tuning are slightly unstable, but the 4th and 5th

are beautiful and suitable for some leads.

E5 Mean-Tone

This scale was created as an improvement on the Pythagorean scale, by making the major third interval

more “in tune.” It was especially popular from the 16th century to the 18th century. Handel, among oth-

ers, used this scale.

F5 Werckmeister

This composite scale combines the Werckmeister and Kirnberger systems, which were themselves

improvements on the mean-tone and Pythagorean scales. The main feature of this scale is that each

key has its own unique character. The scale was used extensively during the time of Bach and

Beethoven, and even now it is often used when performing period music on the harpsichord.

Song data of MIDI channels 3–16 cannot be played back, since this instrument can recognize only MIDI channels 1 and 2. This is why you should only play back Songs which have data of

only MIDI channels 1–2, to which the piano performance is assigned.

Song Category List (XX indicates numerals.)

* Shown only when USB flash drive is connected.

** When data does not exist, the Song number is not displayed.

 User Songs and External Songs

Songs recorded by this instrument are called “User Songs” while Songs created in other ways or on other instruments

are called “External Songs.” In USB flash drive, Songs in the USER FILES folder are handled as User Songs while

Songs in a location other than the USER FILES folder are handled as External Songs. When you record a Song to

USB flash drive, a USER FILES folder is created automatically and the resulting User Song will be saved in this

folder.

Songs

MIDI Songs

A MIDI Song contains data of your keyboard performance

(such as which keys you played and how hard you played

them), and is not a recording of the actual sound itself. The

performance information refers to which keys are played, at

what timing, and at what strength—just as in a musical score.

Based on the recorded performance information, the tone

generator (of the digital piano, etc.) outputs the corresponding

sound. A MIDI Song uses a small amount of data capacity in

comparison to audio recording.

Audio Songs

An Audio Song is a recording of the performed sound itself.

This data is recorded in the same way as that used in record-

ing cassette tapes, or with voice recorders, etc. This data can

be played with a portable music player, etc., allowing you to

easily let other people hear your performance.

Data formats

SMF (Standard MIDI File) Formats 0 and 1

One of the most common and widely compatible MIDI formats

used for storing sequence data. MIDI Songs recorded in this

instrument are saved as SMF Format 0.

WAV format (.wav)

Audio file format commonly used by computers. This instru-

ment can play 44.1kHz/16bit stereo WAV files. Audio Songs

recorded on this instrument are saved in this format.

 Minimizing noise of the input sound via Noise Gate

By default, this instrument cuts unwanted noise from the input sound. However, this

may result in necessary sounds also being cut, such as the soft decay sound of a piano

or guitar. To avoid this, set the Noise Gate to off via the following operation.

While holding down [FUNCTION], press the C#6 key repeatedly to toggle Noise

Gate on and off as needed.

Using an External Stereo System for Playback—AUX OUT [L/L+R] [R] jacks

These jacks let you connect the instrument to external powered speaker systems, for

playing in larger venues at higher volumes.

NOTICE

• To avoid possible damage to the devices, first turn on the power to the instrument, then to the external device. When turning

off the power, first turn off the power to the external device, then to the instrument. Since this instrument’s power may auto-

matically be turned off due to the Auto Power Off function (page 13), turn off the power to the external device, or disable Auto

Power Off when you do not intend to operate the instrument. If the instrument’s power is automatically turned off via the Auto

Power Off function, first turn off the external device, then turn on the power to the instrument then the external device again.

• When the AUX OUT jacks are connected to an external device, never connect the [AUX IN] jacks to the output jacks of the

external device. Doing so could result in feedback (oscillation) that may damage both the devices.

MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a global format standard for

performance data transmission and reception between electronic musical

instruments. Connecting musical instruments that support MIDI via MIDI

cables enables you to transfer performance and setting data between multiple

musical instruments. Using MIDI, you can also achieve more advanced per-

formances than using just a single musical instrument.

Example for MIDI connection

Example 1:

The connection below allows you to play the sounds of an external MIDI tone generator from the keyboard of this

instrument.

Set the MIDI Receive Channel of the external MIDI tone generator to “1,” since the MIDI Transmit Channel of this

instrument is set to “1.”

Example 2:

The connection below allows you to play the sounds of this instrument by playing back a Song on an external MIDI

keyboard or sequencer.

The MIDI Receive Channels of this instrument can only be set to 1 and 2. This is why the data for the piano part

should be assigned to MIDI Channels 1 and 2 of the Song.

Local Control on/off

Normally, playing the keyboard will control the internal tone generator. This situation is called “Local Control ON.”

If you want to use the keyboard only for controlling an external MIDI instrument, turn off Local Control. With this

setting, this instrument will produce no sound even if you play the keyboard.

 To turn the Local Control ON or OFF:

While holding down [FUNCTION], press the C6 key repeatedly (if necessary).

By connecting a computer to the [USB TO HOST] terminal, you can transfer Song data between the

instrument and the computer via MIDI, and take advantage of sophisticated computer music software.

For details, refer to the “Computer-related Operations” on the website (page 9).

About Bluetooth

• Bluetooth is a technology for wireless communication between devices within an area of about 10 meters (33 ft.)

employing the 2.4 GHz frequency band.

• The Bluetooth

word mark and logos are registered trademarks owned by Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and any use of such

marks by Yamaha is under license.

 Handling Bluetooth communications

• The 2.4 GHz band used by Bluetooth compatible devices is a radio band shared by many types of equipment.

While Bluetooth compatible devices use a technology minimizing the influence of other components using the

same radio band, such influence may reduce the speed or distance of communications and in some cases interrupt

communications.

• The speed of signal transfer and the distance at which communication is possible differs according to the distance

between the communicating devices, the presence of obstacles, radio wave conditions and the type of equipment.

• Yamaha does not guarantee all wireless connections between this unit and devices compatible with Bluetooth func-

tion.

Bluetooth availability

This instrument is equipped with Bluetooth functionality; however,

even this functionality may not ensure support of Bluetooth, depend-

ing on the country in which you purchased the product. If the Blue-

tooth logo is printed on the control panel, this means that the product

is equipped with Bluetooth functionality.

Troubleshooting

* The message list (page 41) is also provided for your reference.

Problem Possible Cause and Solution

The instrument does not turn on.

The instrument has not been plugged in properly. Securely insert the female plug into

the socket on the instrument, and the male plug into a proper AC outlet (page 12).

A click or pop is heard when the power is

turned on or off.

Electrical current is being applied to the instrument. This is normal.

The power is automatically turned off.

This is normal and due to the Auto Power Off function. If necessary, set the parameter

of the Auto Power Off function (page 13).

Noise is heard from the instrument's

speakers or headphones.

The noise may be due to interference caused by the use of a mobile phone in close

proximity to the instrument. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the

instrument.

Noise can be heard when you use the instrument along with the application on your

smart device, such as an iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. We recommend that you set

your device to not emit radio waves (for example, by setting “Airplane Mode” to “ON”) in

order to avoid noise caused by communication.

The overall volume is low, or no sound is

heard.

The volume is set too low: set it to an appropriate level using the [MASTER VOLUME]

control (page 14).

Make sure a pair of headphones is not connected to the [PHONES] jack (page 15).

Make sure that Local Control (page 37) is on.

The pitch and/or tone of the Piano Voices in

certain ranges do not sound right.

The Piano Voices attempt to precisely simulate actual piano sounds. However, as a

result of sampling algorithms, overtones in some ranges may sound exaggerated,

producing a somewhat different pitch or tone. This is normal, and no cause for concern.

Sound is not heard on a particular key.

Keyboard may not function normally if the key was pressed when the power was turned

on. Turn off the power and turn it on again to reset the function. Do not touch any keys

when turning the power on (page 12).

Mechanical noise is heard during

performance.

This is normal. The keyboard mechanism of this instrument is the same as that of an

actual piano, which also has mechanical noise.

When playing the same key repeatedly and

quickly or playing a trill continuously for a

long time, a sound louder than expected

(considering your playing strength) might

very occasionally occur.

This might be caused by the mechanical structure of the keys and the action; this is

normal, but only very seldom occurs.

The key you pressed does not return to the

original position smoothly.

Since the keyboard mechanism of this instrument is the same as that of an actual

piano, the mechanism may change over years of use. If this occurs or causes problems

in performance, contact your Yamaha dealer.

Some keys sound louder or quieter than

other keys.

Sound input to the [AUX IN] jacks is

interrupted.

The output volume of the external device connected to this instrument is too low,

resulting in the sound being cut off via the Noise Gate after it is input to this instrument.

• Increase the output volume of the external device. The volume level reproduced via

this instrument’s speakers can be adjusted by using the [MASTER VOLUME] control.

• Set the Noise Gate to off (page 36).

The USB flash drive has hung up (stopped).

Disconnect the USB flash drive and connect it to the instrument again.

The USB flash drive is not compatible with the instrument. Only use the USB flash drive

whose compatibility has been confirmed by Yamaha (page 31).

Higher or lower notes do not sound correctly

when the transpose setting is made.

The instrument can cover the range of C-2–G8 when you set the transposition. If notes

lower than C-2 are played, the actual resulting sound is one octave higher. If notes

higher than G8 are played, the resulting sound is one octave lower.

The Bluetooth-equipped device cannot be

paired with nor connected to this instrument.

The Bluetooth function of the instrument is off; make sure that it is turned on (page 39).

The Bluetooth-equipped device is not paired with this instrument. The device and this

instrument need to be paired to each other via Bluetooth (page 39).

The Bluetooth function of the Bluetooth-equipped device is not activated. Make sure

that the function is activated.

This instrument and the Bluetooth-equipped device are too far apart. Use the device in

close proximity to this instrument.

There is a device (microwave oven, wireless LAN device, etc.) that outputs signals in

the 2.4 GHz frequency band nearby. Move the instrument away from any devices that

might be emitting radio-frequency signals.

Sound input via Bluetooth is

int

errupted.

The output volume of the Bluetooth-equipped device connected to this instrument is

too low, resulting in the sound being cut off via the Noise Gate after it is input to this

instrument. Increase the output volume of the device. The volume level reproduced via

this instrument’s speakers can be adjusted by using the [MASTER VOLUME] control.
