IMPORTANT
—Check your power supply—
Make sure that your local AC
mains voltage 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 selector 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" screwdriver to rotate the
selector dial so that the correct
voltage appears next to the
pointer on the panel.
For information on assembling
the keyboard stand, refer to the
instructions at the end of this
manual.
WICHTIG
—Überprüfen Sie Ihren
Netzanschluss—
Vergewissern Sie sich, dass die
Spannung in Ihrem örtlichen
Stromnetz mit der Spannung
übereinstimmt, die auf dem
Typenschild auf der Unterseite
des Instruments angegeben ist. In
bestimmten Regionen ist auf der
Unterseite des Keyboards in der
Nähe des Netzkabels ein
Spannungswähler angebracht.
Vergewissern Sie sich, dass der
Spannungswähler auf die
Spannung Ihres lokalen
Stromnetzes eingestellt ist. Dieser
Spannungswähler ist bei
Auslieferung auf 240 V
eingestellt. Sie können die
Einstellung mit einem
Schlitzschraubenzieher ändern.
Drehen Sie dazu den
Wählschalter, bis der Pfeil auf
dem Instrument auf die richtige
Spannung zeigt.
Weitere Informationen über die
Montage des Keyboard-Ständers
erhalten Sie in den Anweisungen
am Ende dieses Handbuchs.
IMPORTANT
—Contrôler la source
d'alimentation—
Vérifiez que la tension spécifiée
sur le panneau inférieur
correspond à la tension du
secteur. Dans certaines régions,
l'instrument peut être équipé d'un
sélecteur de tension situé sur le
panneau inférieur du clavier à
proximité du cordon
d'alimentation.
Vérifiez que ce sélecteur est bien
réglé en fonction de la tension
secteur de votre région. Le
sélecteur de tension est réglé sur
240 V au départ d'usine. Pour
modifier ce réglage, 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 triangulaire situé sur le
panneau.
Pour obtenir des informations sur
l'assemblage du support du
clavier, reportez-vous aux
instructions à la fin de ce manuel.
IMPORTANTE
—Verifique la alimentación de
corriente—
Asegúrese de que tensión de
alimentación de CA de su área
corresponde con la tensión
especificada en la placa de
características del panel inferior.
En algunas zonas puede haberse
incorporado un selector de
tensión en el 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
unidad sale de fábrica. Para
cambiar el ajuste, emplee un
destornillador de cabeza "recta"
para girar el selector de modo
que aparezca la tensión correcta
al lado del indicador del panel.
Para información sobre el
montaje del soporte del teclado,
consulte las instrucciones al final

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.
Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have
accumulated on it.
Use only the supplied power cord/plug.
Do not place the power 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 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 instrument inspected
by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
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. 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 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.
Read carefully the attached documentation explaining the assembly process.
Failure to assemble the instrument in the proper sequence might result in
damage to the instrument or even injury.
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 cables.
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.

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.
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.
When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use
paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping
cloths.
•Take care that the key cover does not pinch your fingers, and do not insert a
finger or hand in any gaps on the key cover or instrument.
Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the key
cover, 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.
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.
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 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.
If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten them
periodically using the included tool.
Saving and backing up your data
The panel settings and certain other types of data will be lost if the power is
turned off before they have been saved. Be sure to save (back up) data you want
to keep to the internal Flash Memory before turning off the power (page 55).
Keep in mind that this data is for temporary backup purposes and may be
inadvertently lost due to malfunction or incorrect operation. Make sure to save
all your important data to computer for permanent safekeeping (page 62).
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.

Panel Controls and Terminals
The Yamaha Clavinova CLP-240/230 digital piano provides natural, expressive grand piano sound and playability, and
features Yamahas original AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling (CLP-240)/AWM Stereo Sampling (CLP-230)” tone-genera-
tion technology for rich, musical voices.
The CLP-240/230 Grand Piano 1 and 2 voices feature samples painstakingly recorded from a full concert grand piano.
The CLP-240 Grand Piano 1 voice features three velocity-switched samples (Dynamic Sampling), special “Sustain Sam-
pling” (page 51) that samples the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano’s soundboard and strings when the
damper pedal is pressed, and “Keyoff Samples” that add the subtle sound produced when the keys are released.
The CLP-240/230 also utilizes a “GH3 (Graded Hammer 3)” Keyboard that varies the key weight according to the key
range. Moreover, this specially crafted keyboard lets you use techniques only possible on grand pianos, such as playing the
same note successively and having the sounds blend smoothly even without use of the damper pedal, or playing the same
key quickly and having perfect articulation without the sound cutting off unnaturally. With these features, the CLP-240/
230 comes much closer to the sound of a true acoustic piano.

Insert the plugs at the ends of the cord, one into the AC INLET on the Clavinova, and the other into a standard AC
outlet.
In some areas, a plug adaptor may be provided to match the pin configuration of the AC wall outlets in your area.
CAUTION
Make sure your CLP-240/230 is rated for the AC voltage supplied in the area in which it is to be used (voltage rating appears
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 selector is set for the voltage in your area. Connecting the unit
to the wrong AC supply can cause serious damage to the internal circuitry and may even pose a shock hazard!
Use only the AC power cord supplied with the CLP-240/230. If the supplied cord is lost or damaged and needs to be
replaced, contact your Yamaha dealer. The use of an inappropriate replacement can pose a fire and shock hazard!
The type of AC power cord provided with the CLP-240/230 may be different depending on the country in which it is pur-
chased. (In some areas a plug adaptor may be provided to match the pin configuration of the AC wall outlets in your area.)
Do NOT modify the plug provided with the CLP-240/230. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.

Procedure
NOTE
To learn characteristics of the
voices, listen to demo songs for
each voice (page 14). Refer to
“Preset Voice List” on page 71 for
more information on the charac-
teristics of each preset voice.
TERMINOLOGY
Voice:
On the Clavinova, a voice means
a “tone” or “tonal color.”
NOTE
You can control the loudness of a
voice by adjusting the force with
which you strike the keys,
although different playing styles
(touch sensitivities) have little or
no effect with certain musical
instruments.
Refer to “Preset Voice List” on
page 71.

Using the Pedals
The Clavinova has three foot pedals that produce a range
of expressive effects 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 an acoustic piano. When the damper
pedal is pressed, notes sustain longer. Releasing the pedal
immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes.
When you select the GRAND PIANO 1 voice on the CLP-
240, pressing the damper pedal activates the instrument’s
special “Sustain Samples” to accurately recreate the
unique resonance of an acoustic grand pianos sound-
board and strings. A “half-pedal” effect lets you use the
damper pedal to create partial sustain effects, depending
on how far down you press the pedal.
Sostenuto (Center) Pedal
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the
sostenuto pedal while the note(s) are held, those notes
will sustain as long as you hold the pedal (as if the
damper pedal had been pressed) but all subsequently
played notes will not be sustained. This makes it possible
to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes are
played “staccato.
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 that are already playing when it
is pressed.
NOTE
If the damper pedal doesn’t work,
make sure that the pedal cord is
properly plugged into the main
unit (page 67).
NOTE
The depth of the effect produced
by the “Sustain Samples” can be
adjusted via the “Pedal Func-
tions” (page 51) in Function
mode.
NOTE
When the DDE effect is on, you
can hear a simulation of the sus-
tain sound of the damper pedal
on a grand piano, as you press
the damper pedal and play the
keyboard (page 22).
When you press the damper
pedal here, the notes you
play before you release the
pedal have a longer sustain.
NOTE
Organ, string and choir voices will
continue to sound for as long as
the sostenuto pedal is depressed.
When you press the sostenu-
to pedal here while holding
the note, the note will sustain
as long as you hold the pedal.
NOTE
The left pedal can be assigned to
song play/pause operation or
variation function (CLP-240) via
the “Left Pedal Mode” described
on page 51.

Adding Variations to the Sound – [VARIATION] (CLP-
240)/[BRILLIANCE]/[REVERB]/[EFFECT]/[DDE]
(CLP-240)
[VARIATION] (CLP-240)
Lets you alter another aspect of the effect, depending on the selected type.
Refer to “Preset Voice List on page 71 for more information on the characteristics of
each variation.
Pressing the [VARIATION] or selected voice button toggles the variation on and off.
The indicator lights (ON) each time the [VARIATION] button is pressed.
[BRILLIANCE]
This control can be used to change the tonality or “timbre of the sound output.
BRIGHT: Bright tone
NORMAL: Standard tone
MELLOW: Soft and mellow tone
To select a brilliance type, press the [BRILLIANCE] button a few times until the indica-
tor corresponding to the desired type lights (the indicator lights in sequence each time
you press the [BRILLIANCE] button). Brilliance can be selected among five types. When
two adjacent indicators are lit, the type that is between the two indicated types is
selected. For example, when both NORMAL and MELLOW are lit, the brilliance set-
ting between NORMAL and MELLOW is selected. This parameter affects the entire
sound of the instrument.
[REVERB]
This control enables you to select various digital reverb effects that would add extra
depth and expression to the sound to create a realistic acoustic ambience.
OFF: When no reverb effect is selected, no REVERB indicator is lit.
ROOM: This setting adds a continuous reverb effect to the sound, similar to the
acoustic reverberation you would hear in a room.
HALL 1: For a “bigger” reverb sound, use the HALL 1 setting. This effect simulates
the natural reverberation of a small-size concert hall.
HALL 2: For a truly spacious reverb sound, use the HALL 2 setting. This effect simu-
lates the natural reverberation of a large concert hall.
STAGE: Simulates the reverb of a stage environment.

Touch Sensitivity – [TOUCH]
You can select four different types of keyboard touch sensitivity — HARD, MEDIUM, SOFT or FIXED
— to match different playing styles and preferences.
HARD: Requires that the keys be played quite hard to produce maximum loud-
ness.
MEDIUM: Produces a fairly “standard” keyboard response.
SOFT: Allows maximum loudness to be produced with relatively light key pres-
sure.
FIXED: All notes are produced at the same volume no matter how hard the key-
board is played. (No indicators are lit.) The fixed volume can be changed.
To select a touch sensitivity type press the [TOUCH] button a few times until the indica-
tor corresponding to the desired type lights (the indicators light in sequence each time
the [TOUCH] button is pressed). No indicator is lit when “FIXED” is selected.
Changing the volume when FIXED is selected
When you select FIXED, you can set the volume for notes
played in FIXED mode by using the [–/NO] and [+/YES] but-
tons while you hold the [TOUCH] button. The current vol-
ume 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.
NOTE
Normal setting = MEDIUM
NOTE
The touch sensitivity type will
become the common setting for
all voices. However, the touch
sensitivity settings may have little
or no effect with certain voices
that are not normally responsive
to keyboard dynamics. (Refer to
the “Preset Voice List” on
page 71.)

Transposition – [TRANSPOSE]
The Clavinova’s Transpose function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or
down in semitone intervals to facilitate playing in difficult key signatures, and to let you easily
match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instruments. For example, if you
set the transposition amount to “5,” playing key C produces pitch F. In this way, you can play a
song as though it were in C major, and the Clavinova will transpose it to the key of F.
Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] button while holding the
[TRANSPOSE]
button to transpose down or up as required.
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 function ON or OFF.

Combining Two Voices (Dual mode)
You can play two voices simultaneously across the entire range of the keyboard. In this way, you
can simulate a melody duet or combine two similar voices to create a thicker sound.
1. Engage Dual mode.
Press two voice buttons at the same time (or press one voice button while hold-
ing another). The voice indicators of both selected voices will light when Dual
mode is active.
•According to the voice numbering
priority shown in the diagram on
the right, the lower value voice
number will be designated as Voice
1 (the other voice will be desig-
nated as Voice 2).
The CLP-240/230 Function mode provides access to a number of other Dual
mode functions, such as volume balance setting or octave setting (page 49). (If
you do not set Dual mode functions, the appropriate setting will be set in each
voice by default.)
2. Exit Dual mode and return to normal play mode.
To return to the normal single-voice play mode, press any single voice button.

Splitting the Keyboard Range and Playing Two Different
Vo ices (Split mode) (CLP-240)
Split mode enables you to play two different voices on the keyboard — one with the left hand and
another with the right hand. For example, you can play a bass part using the Wood Bass or Electric
Bass voice with the left hand, and a melody with the right hand.
1. Engage Split mode.
Press the [SPLIT] button so that its indicator lights. The default setting (WOOD
BASS)
will be selected for the left-hand voice at first.
The Function mode provides access to a number of other Split mode functions
(page 50). (If you make no settings for Split mode functions, the appropriate
setting will be set in each voice by default.)
2. Specify the split point (the border between the
right-and left-hand range).
(The split point is initially set at the F
2 key by default.
If you do not need to change the split point, skip this procedure.)
You can change the split point to any other key by pressing the key while hold-
ing the [SPLIT] button (the name of the current split-point key appears on the
LED display while the [SPLIT] button is held).

nient for practicing.
1. Start the metronome.
The metronome sound is turned on by pressing
the METRONOME [ON/OFF] button.
Adjusting the tempo
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/FUNC-
TION# , ]
buttons [TEMPO] indicator is lit).
Adjusting the time signature
The time signature (beat) of the metronome can be
set by using the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons while
holding the METRONOME [ON/OFF] button. You
can set the beat from 0 to 15. The current setting
appears on the LED display while you are holding
the METRONOME [ON/OFF] button.
2. Stop the metronome.
Turn off the metronome by pressing the METRONOME [ON/OFF] button.

Recording Your Performance
CLP-240/230 Owner’s Manual
ENGLISH

Recording Your Performance
The ability to record and play back what you’ve played on the CLP-
240/230 keyboard can be an effective practice aid. You can, for exam-
ple, 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 parts 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 two-part Song Recorder on the CLP-
240/230 allows the recording of up to three User songs (U01-U03) to
the instrument. On the CLP-240, the User songs can be saved to an
optional USB storage device.
Recording a performance quickly
This convenient and simple recording method lets you quickly record
your performance without specifying the recording parts—useful, for
example, in recording solo piano pieces.
In this way, the performance is automatically recorded to right part.
CAUTION
To avoid erasing previously recorded song(s):
If the song contains data, the part indicator lights up green when you select a song.
Note that recording new data on this part will erase the existing data.
(CLP-240)
You cannot record the performance to the connected USB storage device
directly. The recorded songs are saved to the instrument automatically. If you want to
save data to the device, perform the Save operation (page 36) after stopping recording.
1. Make all the initial settings.
Before you begin to record, select the voice you want to record (or voices if you
will be using Dual or Split mode). Make any other desired settings (reverb,
effect, etc.) as well. You might also want to set the volume.
You can also adjust the playback volume using the [MASTER VOLUME] slider.
NOTE
You can record your performance
(audio data) to a cassette tape
recorder or other recording
device via the AUX OUT jack
(page 56).
TERMINOLOGY
Recording vs. Saving:
The format of performance data recorded on a cassette tape differs from that of data recorded on the
Clavinova. A cassette tape records audio signals. The Clavinova “saves” information regarding note
timing, voices, and a tempo value, but not audio signals. When you play back recorded songs, the
Clavinova produces sound based on the saved information. Therefore, recording on the Clavinova
may be more accurately called “saving information.” However, this book often uses the word “record-
ing” because it seems to make more sense.
NOTE
When the unit is in Demo Song
mode or during a file operation
(CLP-240), Record mode cannot
be engaged.

Handling Songs with a USB Storage
Device (CLP-240)
You can handle User songs (save, export and delete) with a USB stor-
age device. You can also format the device or media.
About Save and Export
Save
You can save three User songs in the instrument to the USB storage device as a single
file (User file). These songs can be saved to a container” (or memory location) in the
USB storage device. 100 containers are available — A00-A99.
Since the User songs are saved in a special Clavinova format, they cannot be played
back on other instruments, including other Clavinovas.
With this file format, you can re-record each part on the CLP-240. Songs cannot be
directly played back from the USB storage device; they must first be loaded to the
instrument.
For details on the save operation, see “Saving Songs” on page 36.
Export
You can export a User song in the instrument to the USB storage device as a single file
(SMF song). Songs can be exported to a “container” (or memory location) in the USB
storage device. 100 containers are available — S00-S99.
Since the User songs are saved in SMF format, they can be played back on other instru-
ments, including other Clavinovas.
With this file format, you cannot re-record on the CLP-240. Songs in this format can be
directly played back from the USB storage device, and do not need to be previously
loaded to the instrument.
For details on the export operation, see “Exporting a Song in SMF format” on page 37.
NOTE
For details on connecting a USB
storage device, see page 58.
NOTE
Before handling songs with a
USB storage device, make sure
that the device is not protected.
If the device is protected, you
cannot access it.
NOTE
If there is not enough capacity left
on the USB storage device to
save or export the data, an appro-
priate message will appear on the
display and you will not be able to
save or export the data. Delete
unwanted files from the device to
make more memory available
(page 38), or use another device.
NOTE
The “A” indication at the top of the
User file name means “All” — all
three songs in the instrument are
saved into one container.
NOTE
The file numbers which can be
handled in this instrument are 100

formats used for storing sequence
data. There are two variations:
Format 0 and Format 1. A large
number of MIDI devices are com-
patible with SMF Format 0, and
most commercially available MIDI
sequence data is provided in SMF
Format 0. The SMF format for
sequence files allows you to
exchange song data between dif-
ferent sequencers. User songs
recorded on the CLP-240 are
exported as SMF Format 0.

cally be saved into the “USERFILES” folder and named as “USERFILExx.usr.
Overwriting the file
If you select a container which contains a User file, three dots appear in the dis-
play (ex., A.0.0.”). If you do not want to overwrite the file, press the [–/NO] but-
ton when “n y (no or yes)” appears in the display and select another container. If
you want to overwrite the file, press the [+/YES] button when “n y (no or yes)”
appears in the display. After “n
-
y” appears in the display again to confirm
whether you wish to overwrite the file or not, press the [+/YES] button once
more.
CAUTION
While the instrument is accessing data (such as during Save, Export, Delete, Load and
Format operations) or is mounting the USB storage device (shortly after the connec-
tion: until the FILE LOAD LED flash stops), do NOT unplug the USB cable, do NOT
remove the media from the device, and do NOT turn the power off to either devices.
Doing so may corrupt the data on either or both devices.
2. Exit from the file operation mode.
Press the [FILE] button several times to exit the file operation mode. (The FILE
indicators turn off.)
CAUTION
Do not rename User files on a computer. If the file name is changed in this way, the file
cannot be loaded to the instrument.

Procedure
Playing Back Songs
CLP-240/230 Owner’s Manual
ENGLISH
40
Playing Back Songs
You can play back songs recorded using the Record function (pages 29–34) or commercially avail-
able songs. You can also play the keyboard along with the playback.
50 Piano Preset Songs (CLP-240/230) ............................................... page 15
50 Piano Preset Songs in the instrument.
•User songs in the instrument (CLP-240/230) ................................... page 41
User songs which you recorded to the instrument by using the record function
(page 29).
•User files in the USB storage device (CLP-240) ................................ page 42
User files which you saved recorded song data to the USB storage device (page 35).
SMF songs in the USB storage device (CLP-240) .............................page 43
SMF songs which you exported recorded song data to the USB storage device
(page 35).
External songs in the USB storage device (CLP-240) ....................... page 43
Commercially available songs or songs which have been edited on a computer, etc.
and stored to a USB storage device. Up to 999 songs can be played back on this
instrument (numbers 001-999).
External songs in the instrument (CLP-240/230)............................. page 41
Songs transferred from a computer (including commercially available songs and
songs which have been edited on a computer). Songs can be transferred (saved) to
the instrument by using the included Musicsoft Downloader software. The songs are
saved to an area of the internal memory separate from the area for recorded User
songs. Up to 255 songs can be played back on this instrument (numbers 001-255).
NOTE
You cannot select songs in Demo
Song mode (page 14) or during
file operations (page 35).
NOTE
When playing back songs con-
taining various voices or parts
(such as XG or GM songs), the
voices may not sound correct or
as intended on the original. You
may be able to remedy this and
make the playback sound more
natural or appropriate by chang-
ing the Song Channel Selection
setting (page 51) to “1&2,” so that
only channels 1 and 2 will play
back.
NOTE
If the song cannot be selected or
loaded, you may need to change
the Character Code setting
(page 55).
NOTE
Song data is not transmitted via
the MIDI connections. However,
channels 3-16 of DOC songs,
Disklavier Piano Soft songs, and
non-protected External songs will
be transmitted via the MIDI con-
nections depending on the Song
Channel Selection setting
(page 51).
NOTE
Appropriate channels in the song
will automatically be assigned to
[RIGHT] and [LEFT]. Therefore,
[RIGHT] may be assigned to a
part other than channel 1, or
[LEFT] to a part other than chan-
nel 2.
NOTE
For the USB storage device,
folder directories on this instru-
ment can be recognized up to
two levels. However, the level is
not displayed and song numbers
001-999 are displayed whichever
level the song contains.
NOTE
If the metronome is being used
during playback, the metronome
will automatically stop when play-
back is stopped.
NOTE
If the REVERB type is changed
via the panel controls during play-
back, both the playback and key-
board reverb effects will be
changed.
NOTE
If the EFFECT type is changed via
the panel controls during playback,
the playback effect may be
switched off in some cases.
Sequence formats that can be played on the CLP-240/230
• SMF (Standard MIDI File) Formats 0 and 1
The SMF format is one of the most common and widely compatible sequence formats used
for storing sequence data. There are two variations: Format 0 and Format 1. A large number
of MIDI devices are compatible with SMF Format 0, and most commercially available MIDI
sequence data is provided in SMF Format 0. The SMF format for sequence files allows you to
exchange song data between different sequencers. User songs recorded on the CLP-240 are
exported as SMF Format 0.
• ESEQ
This sequence format is compatible with many of Yamaha’s MIDI devices, including the
Clavinova series instruments. This is a common format used with various Yamaha software.
In the ESEQ files, only DOC (Disk Orchestra Collection) files and Disklavier Piano Soft songs
can be played back on this instrument.

If you do not want to overwrite them, save them to the USB storage device before load-
ing.
CAUTION
While the instrument is accessing data (such as during Save, Export, Delete, Load and
Format operations) or is mounting the USB storage device (shortly after the connec-
tion: until the FILE LOAD LED flash stops), do NOT unplug the USB cable, do NOT
remove the media from the device, and do NOT turn the power off to either devices.
Doing so may corrupt the data on either or both devices.

cession. Doing so may delete all song data in the instrument, including external songs
(page 40).

Playing Back SMF/External songs from a USB storage
device (CLP-240)
1. Select the desired song.
After making sure that the USB storage device is connected to the instrument,
press the [SONG SELECT] button (the USB indicator lights). Then, press the
[–/NO] [+/YES] buttons to select a song. The SMF songs are displayed as “Sxx*”
and External songs are displayed as “xxx*.
* The “S” indication in the SMF song name means “SMF. The letters “xx” represent the song number.
Repeating songs in the USB Storage device.
Select “ALL”: Play all SMF/External songs in the USB storage device in sequence.
Select “rnd”: Play all SMF/External songs in the USB storage device continuously in
random order.
2. Start and stop playback.
Same as step 2 and 3 in “Playing Back User/External Songs on the Instrument”
on page 41.
Useful Playback Functions
Turning part playback on and off
When you select a song on the Clavinova, the indicators for parts that contain
data (one of [RIGHT] [LEFT] or both) are lit in green. While the Clavinova is playing or
stopped, pressing these part buttons turns off the indicators, and the data on those
parts is not played. Pressing the part buttons toggles part playback on and off.
Starting playback automatically when you start playing the keyboard
(Sync Start)
You can start playback as soon as you start playing the keyboard. This is called the
“Sync Start” function.
To engage the Sync Start function, press the SONG [PLAY/PAUSE] button while hold-
ing down the SONG [STOP] button. The SONG [PLAY/PAUSE] lamp will flash at the
current tempo.
(Repeat the previous operation to disengage the Sync Start function.)
Playback will then start as soon as you begin playing on the keyboard.
This function is useful when you wish to match the timing of the beginning of the play-
back sound and the start of your own performance.
Assigning the PLAY/PAUSE function to the left pedal
The left pedal can also be assigned to song play/pause operation via the “Pedal Play/
Pause” (page 51). This is convenient for starting playback of the song anytime after you
have started playing.

About Each Function
You can fine tune the pitch of the entire instru-
ment. This function is useful when you play
the Clavinova along with other instruments or
CD music.
1. Engage the Function mode and select .
2. Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to lower
or raise the pitch of the A3 key in approxi-
mately 0.2 Hz increments.
..... .....
Te nths of a hertz are indicated on the LED display by
the appearance and position of one or two dots, as in
the following example:
•Each key has a note name; for example, the lowest
(farthest left) key on the keyboard corresponds to A-1,
and the highest (farthest right) key to C7.
During the procedure described above, the display indi-
cates a value in Hz < >. After the proce-
dure, the display returns to the previous indication.
During the procedure described above, the display indi-

(two white keys at the left end) simultaneously and press any key
between C3 and B3.
To tune down (in about 0.2Hz steps): Hold the A-1 and A
-1
keys (a white and a black key at the left end) simultaneously and
press any key between C3 and B3.
To restore standard pitch: Hold the A-1, A
-1 and B-1 (two
white keys and one black key at the left end) simultaneously and
press any key between C3 and B3.
NOTE
You can also tune in about 1Hz steps (in any mode other
than Function mode).
To tune down or up, respectively, in approximately 1 Hz incre-
ments: Hold the A-1 and A
-1 keys (a white and a black key at
the left end) or A-1 and B-1 keys (two white keys at the left end)
simultaneously and press the [–/NO] or [+/YES] button.

You can select various scales.
Equal Temperament is the most common con-
temporary piano tuning scale. However, his-
tory has known numerous other scales, many
of which serve as the basis for certain genres of
music. You can experience these tunings with
the Clavinova.
Equal Temperament
One octave is divided into twelve equal intervals. Cur-
rently the most popular piano tuning scale.
PureMajor/PureMinor
Based on natural overtones, three major chords using
these scales produce a beautiful, pure sound.
Pythagorean
This scale, designed by Pythagoras, a Greek philosopher,
is based on the interval of a perfect 5th.
The 3rd produces swells, but the 4th and 5th are beauti-
ful and suitable for some leads.
MeanTone
This scale is an improvement of the Pythagorean in that
the swell of the 3rd has been eliminated. The scale
became popular during the late 16th century through the
late 18th century, and was used by Handel.
Werckmeister/Kirnberger
These scales combine Mean Tone and Pythagorean in
different ways. With these scales, modulation changes the
impression and feel of the songs. They were often used in
the era of Bach and Beethoven. They are often used today
to reproduce the music of that era on harpsichords.
1. Engage the Function mode and select .
2. Press the [+/YES] button to engage the scale
function’s sub-mode, then use the [TEMPO/
FUNCTION# , ] buttons to select the
desired sub-mode.
Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to select
the number of the desired tuning.

Local Control ON/OFF
“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the
CLP-240/230 keyboard controls its internal tone genera-
tor, 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
CLP-240/230 keyboard does not play the internal voices,
but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted
via the MIDI OUT terminal when notes are played on
the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone genera-
tor responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI
IN terminal.
Setting range: ON/OFF
Normal setting: ON
F8.4: (CLP-240)/F7.4: (CLP-230)
Program Change ON/OFF
Normally the CLP-240/230 will respond to MIDI pro-
gram change numbers received from an external key-
board or other MIDI device, causing the
correspondingly-numbered voice to be selected on the
corresponding channel (the keyboard voice does not
change). The CLP-240/230 will normally also send a
MIDI program change number whenever one of its
voices is selected, causing the correspondingly-num-
bered 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 CLP-240/230 without
affecting the external MIDI device.
Setting range: ON/OFF
Normal setting: ON
F8.5: (CLP-240)/F7.5: (CLP-230)
Control Change ON/OFF
Normally the CLP-240/230 will respond to MIDI control
change data received from an external MIDI device or
keyboard, causing the voice on the corresponding chan-
nel to be affected by pedal and other “control” settings
received from the controlling device (the keyboard voice
is not affected).
The CLP-240/230 also transmits MIDI control change
information when the pedal 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
CLP-240/230’s pedal and other controls can be operated
without affecting an external MIDI device.
Setting range: ON/OFF
Normal setting: ON
NOTE
ALL:
“Multi-timbre” Receive mode. This allows simultaneous reception
of different parts on all 16 MIDI channels, enabling the Clavinova
to play multi-channel song data received from a music computer
or sequencer.
1&2:
“1&2” Receive mode. This allows simultaneous reception on
channels 1 and 2 only, enabling the Clavinova to play 1 and 2
channel song data received from a music computer or
sequencer.
NOTE
Program change and other like channel messages received will
not affect the CLP-240/230’s panel settings or the notes you play
on the keyboard.
NOTE
No MIDI reception occurs when Demo mode is engaged or dur-
ing file operations (CLP-240).

Connection to a USB storage device (CLP-240)
By connecting the instrument to a USB storage device with a standard USB cable, you can save data
you’ve created to the connected device, as well as read data from the connected device.
Compatible USB storage devices
A USB storage device, such as a floppy disk drive, hard disk drive, CD-ROM drive, flash
memory reader/writer, etc., can be connected to the
USB [TO DEVICE] terminal. Other
USB devices such as a computer keyboard or mouse cannot be used.
CAUTION
Avoid frequently turning the power on/off to the USB storage device, or connecting/disconnect-
ing the cable too often. Doing so may result in the operation of the instrument “freezing” or
hanging up. While the instrument is accessing data (such as during Save, Export, Copy, Delete,
Load and Format operations) or is mounting the USB storage device (shortly after the connection:
until the FILE LOAD LED flash stops), do NOT unplug the USB cable, do NOT remove the media
from the device, and do NOT turn the power off to either devices. Doing so may corrupt the data
on either or both devices.
Connection to a USB storage device
This instrument has two USB [TO DEVICE] terminals; one on the left of the panel and
one on the terminal at the bottom.
Both are the same terminal; however, both cannot be used at the same time. Use the
[SELECT] switch to select the desired terminal. Switching to A selects the terminal on
the left of the panel, while switching to “B” selects the terminal panel at the bottom.
When the device is mounting, the FILE “LOAD indicator flashes. When the mounting
operation is completed, the indicator goes off.
CAUTION
While the instrument is accessing data (such as in the Save, Export, Load, Delete or Format opera-
tions) or is mounting the USB storage device (shortly after the connection: until the FILE LOAD
LED flash stops), do NOT use the [SELECT] switch. Doing so may corrupt the media or data.
CAUTION
Disconnect the optional USB storage device connected to the [USB TO DEVICE] A terminal before
closing the key cover. Closing the cover with the device still connected may damage the device.
Formatting USB storage media
When executing a file-related operation with a connected USB storage device, a “For”
message may appear, indicating that the device or media may be unformatted. If this
happens, format the media (page 39).
CAUTION
The format operation overwrites any previously existing data. Proceed with caution.

Problem Possible Cause and Solution
The Clavinova does not turn on. The Clavinova has not been plugged in properly. Securely insert the female plug into
the socket on the Clavinova, and the male plug into a proper AC outlet (page 11).
A click or pop is heard when the power is
turned on or off.
This is normal when electrical current is being applied to the instrument.
Noise is heard from the speakers or head-
phones.
The noise may be due to interference caused by the use of a mobile phone in close
proximity to the Clavinova. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the
Clavinova.
The overall volume is low, or no sound is
heard.
The Master Volume is set too low; set it to an appropriate level using the [MASTER
VOLUME] control.
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 12).
Make sure that Local Control (page 53) is ON.
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 “NOR-
MAL” position (page 12).
The damper pedal has no effect, or the sound
continuously sustains even when the damper
pedal is not pressed.
The pedal cable/plug may not be properly connected. Make sure to securely insert the
pedal plug into the proper jack (page 67).
(CLP-240)

you shake it?
Tighten all screws.
Does the pedal box rattle or give way when you
step on the pedals?
Turn the adjuster so that it is set firmly against the
floor.
Are the pedal and power cords inserted securely
into the sockets?

Handling the Floppy Disk Drive (FDD) and Floppy Disks (CLP-240)
CLP-240/230 Owner’s Manual
ENGLISH

Handling the Floppy Disk Drive (FDD)
and Floppy Disks (CLP-240)
An optional floppy disk drive can be installed to the
CLP-240. For instructions on installing the floppy disk
drive, see page 70.
The floppy disk drive lets you save original data you’ve
created on the instrument to floppy disk, and allows you
to load data from floppy disk to the instrument.
Be sure to handle floppy disks and treat the disk drive
with care. Follow the important precautions below.
Floppy Disk Compatibility
3.5" 2DD and 2HD type floppy disks can be used.
Formatting a Floppy Disk
•If you find that you are unable to use new, blank disks or
old disks that have been used with other devices, you
may need to format them. For details on how to format a
disk, see page 39. Keep in mind that all data on the disk
will be lost after formatting. Make sure to check before-
hand whether or not the disk contains important data.
n
Floppy disks formatted on this device may or may not be useable
as is on other devices.
Inserting/Removing Floppy Disks
Inserting a Floppy Disk into the Disk Drive:
Hold the disk so that the label of the disk is facing upward
and the sliding shutter is facing forward, towards the disk
slot. Carefully insert the disk into the slot, slowly pushing
it all the way in until it clicks into place and the eject but-
ton pops out.
n
Never insert anything but floppy disks into the disk drive. Other
objects may cause damage to the disk drive or floppy disks.
Removing a Floppy Disk
•After checking that the instrument is not accessing* the
floppy disk (checking that the use lamp on the floppy
disk drive is off), firmly press the eject button at the
upper right of the disk slot all the way in.
When the floppy disk is ejected, pull it out of the drive. If
the floppy disk cannot be removed because it is stuck, do
not try to force it, but instead try pressing the eject but-
ton again, or try re-inserting the disk and attempt to
eject it again.
*Access of the disk indicates an active operation, such as
recording, playback, or deletion of data.
If a floppy disk is inserted while the power is on, the disk is
automatically accessed, since the instrument checks
whether the disk has data.
CAUTION
Do not remove the floppy disk or turn off the instrument itself
while the disk is being accessed.
Doing so may result not only in loss of data on the disk but also
damage to the floppy disk drive.
•Be sure to remove the floppy disk from the disk drive
before turning off the power. A floppy disk left in the
drive for extended periods can easily pick up dust and
dirt that can cause data-read and -write errors.
Cleaning the Disk Drive Read/Write
Head
•Clean the read/write head regularly. This instrument
employs a precision magnetic read/write head which,
after an extended period of use, will pick up a layer of
magnetic particles from the disks used that will eventu-
ally cause read and write errors.
•To maintain the disk drive in optimum working order
Yamaha recommends that you use a commercially-avail-
able dry-type head cleaning disk to clean the head about
once a month. Ask your Yamaha dealer about the avail-
ability of proper head cleaning disks.
About Floppy Disks
Handle floppy disks with care, and follow
these precautions:
•Do not place heavy objects on a disk or bend or apply
pressure to the disk in any way. Always keep floppy disks
in their protective cases when they are not in use.
•Do not expose the disk to direct sunlight, extremely high
or low temperatures, or excessive humidity, dust or liq-
uids.
•Do not open the sliding shutter and touch the exposed
surface of the floppy disk inside.
•Do not expose the disk to magnetic fields, such as those
produced by televisions, speakers, motors, etc., since
magnetic fields can partially or completely erase data on
the disk, rendering it unreadable.
•Never use a floppy disk with a deformed shutter or hous-
ing.
•Do not attach anything other than the provided labels to
a floppy disk. Also make sure that labels are attached in
the proper location.
To Protect Your Data (Write-protect Tab):
•To prevent accidental erasure of important data, slide the
disk’s write-protect tab to the “protect position (tab
open). When saving data, make sure that the disk’s write-
protect tab is set to the “overwrite position (tab closed).
write-protect tab open

ing cords of any kind. The use of an extension cord is not recom-
mended! 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 electrician.
6. Ventilation: Electronic products, unless specifically
designed for enclosed installations, should be placed in locations
that do not interfere with proper ventilation. If instructions for
enclosed installations are not provided, it must be assumed that
unobstructed ventilation is required.

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
extended periods of time. Cords should also be disconnected
when there is a high probability of lightning 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.

described in the user-maintenance instructions. All other servic-
ing should be referred to qualified service personnel.
14. This product, either alone or in combination with an
amplifier and headphones or speaker/s, may be capable of pro-
ducing 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 accessory
mounting fixtures that are either supplied as a part of the product
or as optional accessories. Some of these items are designed to be
dealer assembled or installed. Please make sure that benches are
