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 rear 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 instrument, refer to the instructions at the end of this manual.

IMPORTANT

— Vérifiez votre alimentation électrique —

Vériﬁez que la tension de l’alimentation secteur correspond à celle indiquée sur la plaque du fabricant, située sur le panneau

inférieur. Les instruments destinés à certaines régions disposent d’un sélecteur de tension. Il est installé sur le panneau arrière de

l’unité principale du clavier, à côté du câble d’alimentation. Assurez-vous que ce sélecteur est réglé sur la tension utilisée dans

votre pays. À sa sortie d’usine, le sélecteur est réglé sur 240 V. Pour modiﬁer ce réglage, utilisez un tournevis plat et faites tourner

le cadran du sélecteur jusqu’à ce que la valeur correcte apparaisse à côté de l’indicateur ﬁgurant sur le panneau.

Pour plus d’informations sur l’assemblage de l’instrument, reportez-vous aux instructions ﬁgurant à la ﬁn de ce manuel.

IMPORTANTE

— Revise la fuente de alimentación —

Asegúrese de que la tensión de la red eléctrica local de CA coincida con la tensión especiﬁcada en la placa del panel inferior. Es

posible que, en algunas zonas, se suministre un selector de tensión en el panel posterior del teclado principal, junto al cable de

alimentación. Asegúrese de que este selector esté ajustado según la tensión de la zona. El selector viene ajustado de fábrica para

240 V. Para cambiar el ajuste, utilice un destornillador de punta normal para girar el selector hasta que la tensión correcta

aparezca al lado del puntero del panel.

Para obtener más información sobre el montaje del instrumento, consulte las instrucciones que encontrará al ﬁnal de este manual.

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

• 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.

• 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.

• 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 key cover or

instrument. Also take care that the key cover does not pinch

your finger.

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

gaps on the key cover, 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 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 injury.

allocation formats. “GM System Level 2” is a standard

specification that enhances the original “GM” and improves

Song data compatibility. It provides for increased polyphony,

greater Voice selection, expanded Voice parameters, and

integrated effect processing.

XG is a major enhancement of the GM System Level 1

format, and was developed by Yamaha specifically to provide

more Voices and variations, as well as greater expressive

control over Voices and effects, and to ensure compatibility of

data well into the future.

GS was developed by the Roland Corporation. In the same

way as Yamaha XG, GS is a major enhancement of the GM

specifically to provide more Voices and Drum kits and their

variations, as well as greater expressive control over Voices

and effects.

Main Features

Real Grand Expression (RGE) Sound Engine

This lets you enjoy the playing response and expressive capability of a concert grand piano. In addition to providing

smooth tonal changes that respond to your playing touch, it also features a new Smooth Release function which can

clearly enunciate staccato notes and produce the sound of lingering resonance when gently lifting your fingers from the

keys. It succeeds in capturing the essence of a piano performance to create grand piano-like, richly expressive

experiences.

GP Soundboard Speakers for simulating a Grand Piano

This special speaker system, located on the rear panel, will simulate or produce the reverberation and spaciousness of the

sound as if there were the soundboard of a grand piano.

NW (Natural Wood) keyboard with synthetic ivory keytops and Linear Graded

Hammer

The CLP-480 features a keyboard that has the feel of real ivory. The key surface is soft and slightly porous, giving the keys

added grip and a natural friction that lets you play easily. The special Natural Wood keyboard uses real-wood white keys

just as an actual grand piano. Moreover, Linear Graded Hammer features the lower keys are heavy in touch and the

higher keys are light, with all the natural gradations in between. The CLP-480 provides the performance functions and

expressive power found only on grand pianos, such as having repeated plays of the same note perfectly articulated, even

when playing at high speed or with partial key release.

Tri-Amp System

The instrument has a built-in Tri-Amp System that features separate amplification for each speaker range—high, mid,

and low—providing greater clarity and accuracy from each speaker, ensuring optimum volume balance for each octave

range, and letting you enjoy richer, more natural, expansive sound.

Audio Playing and Recording from a USB Flash Memory

Audio files (.wav) saved to a USB storage device such as a USB flash memory can be played back on the instrument.

Moreover, since you can record your performance as audio data to a USB flash memory device, it is possible to listen to

your performance on portable music players, with the data transferred by computer.

Introduction

Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano

With the full set of pedals and expressive keyboard, this instrument can be played just like a real acoustic

piano. This section shows you how to simply set up the instrument and play it. It also shows you how to use

the built-in metronome, convenient for practice purposes. We’ve also included for your piano-playing

pleasure “50 greats for the Piano” (Music Book) to help you master the instrument.

1. Connect the power cable.

First insert the plug of the power cable into the AC connector on this instrument, then plug the other end of the

cable into the proper AC outlet on the wall. For an illustration of the location of the [AC IN] connector, see “Panel

Controls and Terminals” (page 11). In some areas a plug adaptor may be provided to match the pin configuration

of the AC wall outlets in your area.

2. Open the key cover.

Lift the cover slightly, then push and slide it to end

completely so that both the panel buttons and keyboard are

visible. In this condition, you can make various panel

Turning the power on

WARNING

• Make sure your instrument 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 AC IN. 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 your instrument. 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 your instrument may be different depending on the country in which it is

purchased. (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 your instrument. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed

by a qualified electrician.

Introduction

Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano

This instrument is equipped with three foot pedals: damper pedal (right),

sostenuto pedal (center), and soft pedal (left).

Damper pedal (right pedal)

When you press the damper pedal, the notes you play

have a longer sustain. When you select a Grand Piano

Voice, pressing the damper pedal activates the

instrument’s special “Sustain Samples” to accurately

recreate the unique resonance of an acoustic grand

piano’s soundboard and strings. You can set the depth of

the Sustain Sampling (page 71).

Sostenuto pedal (center pedal)

If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the

sostenuto pedal while holding the note(s), the notes will

sustain as long as the pedal is held. All subsequent notes

will not sustain.

Soft pedal (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. When you wish to apply this effect, play notes after pressing the

pedal.

Keep in mind that this pedal function will be changed from the Soft pedal depending

on the selected Voice. When the Jazz Organ or Mellow Organ is selected, pressing

and releasing this pedal switches between “fast” and “slow” of the Rotary Speaker

speed (“RotarySpeed” on page 64). When the Vibraphone is selected, this pedal

switches between on and off of the Vibrato (“VibeRotorOnOff ” on page 64).

Using the pedals

When you press the damper

pedal here, the notes you

play before you release the

pedal have a longer sustain.

NOTE

For details about the Grand

Piano Voices to which the

Sustain Sampling can be

applied, refer to Preset Voice

List (detailed) on page 75.

NOTE

You can assign other functions

to each pedal by using

“RPedalFunc,” ”CPedalFunc”

and ”LPedalFunc” in Voice

Setting (page 65).

NOTE

While the sostenuto (center)

pedal is held, the Voices in the

[PIPE ORGAN], [JAZZ

ORGAN], [STRINGS], [CHOIR]

and some Voices in the [XG]

may sound continuously

without decay after the notes

have been released.

NOTE

The center pedal or left pedal

can be used as equivalent to

the [PLAY/PAUSE] button on

the panel by setting the

“PedalPlay/Pause” parameter

(page 70).

NOTE

The pedals are covered with

vinyl covers when shipped

from the factory. For optimum

use of the GP Responsive

Damper Pedal, we

recommend that you remove

the cover from the damper

pedal.

Half-pedal function

This instrument also has a Half-pedal function which allows you to use half-damper

techniques, in which the damper is pressed somewhere between all the way down and

all the way up. In this half-damper state (on a real piano), the damper felts only

partially mute the strings. The Half-pedal function on the Clavinova lets you delicately

and expressively control the damper muting, and create subtle nuances in your

performance. It also lets you finely control the point at which pressure on the pedal

affects the damper muting. (Refer to “Other settings — [FUNCTION]” on page 70.)

GP Responsive Damper Pedal

The damper pedal of this instrument is the 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. Since the pressing sensation may vary depending on the situation,

including the location where the instrument is installed, you should adjust the half-

pedal point to the desired setting (page 70).

When you press the sostenuto

pedal here while holding the

note(s), the notes will sustain

as long as you hold the pedal.

Introduction

Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano

Introduction

Maintenance

To keep your Clavinova in optimum condition, we recommend

that you periodically follow the maintenance points below.

Instrument and Bench Maintenance

• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth.

If you are using 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.

To keep the surface polished, apply commercially available piano polisher to a soft cloth and wipe the

instrument’s surface with it. Then, polish it with a separate cloth. Before using any piano polisher,

make sure to read the instructions for proper usage.

• Tighten the screws of the instrument and bench periodically.

NOTICE

Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.

Bench Height Adjustment (for applicable benches)

The bench height can be adjusted by rotating the handle. Rotating clockwise heightens the bench.

(Before shipment, the handle is firmly fastened.)

Pedal Cleaning

As with an acoustic piano, pedals may become tarnished over years of use. When this occurs, polish the

pedal with a compound designed for piano pedals. Before using the compound, make sure to read the

instructions for proper usage.

Tuning

Unlike an acoustic piano, the instrument does not need to be tuned. It always stays perfectly in tune.

Transporting

You can transport the instrument along with other belongings. You can move the unit as it is

(assembled) or you can disassemble the unit down to the condition it was in when you first took it out of

the box. Transport the keyboard horizontally. Do not lean it up against a wall or stand it up on its side.

Do not subject the instrument to excessive vibration or shock.

When transporting the assembled instrument, make sure all screws are properly tightened and have not

been loosened by moving the instrument.

NOTE

To ensure optimum performance of the GP Soundboard Speaker function, place the instrument so that the rear side

of the instrument is 1 – 2 cm away from the wall.

Playing back Songs

This instrument can play Preset Songs, Songs you recorded on this instrument, or commercially available

Songs. In addition to listening to these Songs, you can play the keyboard as the Song plays back.

For a general overview of MIDI and how you can effectively use it, refer to “MIDI Basics” (downloadable from the

Yamaha website).

You can play back the following types of Songs in this instrument.

• Preset Songs (50 Piano Preset Songs)

• Your own recorded Songs (see page 33 for instructions on recording)

• Commercially available MIDI Song data: SMF (Standard MIDI File) or ESEQ

The maximum size for playback on this instrument is approx. 550KB per single MIDI

Song.

• Commercially available Audio Song data: WAV (file extension = .wav with 44.1

kHz sample rate, 16 bit resolution, stereo, and maximum 80 minutes length)

If you wish to play back the Song in a USB storage device, read “Connecting a USB storage device” (page 51),

then connect a USB storage device to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal.

1. Press the [SONG SELECT] button to enter the Song mode.

2. Select a Song to be played back.

2-1 Use the A [–][+] buttons to select a drive (data location).

MIDI Songs and Audio Songs

There are two kinds of Songs that can be recorded and played back on this instrument: MIDI Songs and Audio

Songs.

A MIDI Song is comprised of your keyboard performance information 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 Clavinova, etc.)

outputs the corresponding sound. A MIDI Song uses a small amount of data capacity in comparison to audio song,

and allows you to easily change aspects of the sound, such as Voices used, etc.

An Audio Song is a recording of the performed sound itself. This data is recorded in the same way as that used in

recording 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.

Advanced Functions

Recording your performance

This instrument allows you to record your performance in the following two data formats.

MIDI data format

Recorded performances are saved as an SMF (format 0) MIDI Song. Two types of recording methods are

available: Recording without specifying the Part, and Multi Recording, which lets you record specific Parts.

You can also re-record only the specified range in case your performance was not satisfactory, or even change

the Voice or tempo. The maximum size for recording on this instrument is approx. 550KB per single MIDI

Song.

Audio data format

Recorded performances are saved as Audio Songs. Recording is done without specifying the recorded part.

Since it is saved in stereo WAV format of normal CD-quality resolution (44.1 kHz/16 bit), it can be

transmitted to and played on portable music players by using a computer. This instrument’s recordable time

is up to 80 minutes per single Audio recording.

If you wish to record on a USB storage device, read “Connecting a USB storage device” (page 51) then follow

the instructions below after connecting the USB storage device to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal.

For details about the difference between MIDI Songs and Audio Songs, refer to page 27.

As described above, two methods are available.

Recording without specifying the Part (MIDI/Audio data format)

..................................................................................................... page 34

With MIDI data format recording, the performance will be recorded to Part 1.

Multi Recording of specific Parts (MIDI data format) .............. page 36

This lets you record the right, left and extra parts separately. Since you can

record the left part while playing back the right, this is useful for recording both

parts of a duet. Since you can record up to sixteen parts separately, record the

performance of each instrument part one by one and create fully orchestrated

compositions.

Recording method

NOTE

(For Multi Recording)

Depending on the Song, such

as commercially available

Song data, Part assignment to

each button may be different

from the illustration shown at

left.

[EXTRA PARTS] corresponds to Parts 3 – 16.

Record Parts 3 – 16 in addition to Parts 1 and 2

when you are recording a Song which has many

parts, such as that of an ensemble or orchestra.

[RIGHT] corresponds to Part 1. Record the right-hand

If you select a Song from an ensemble collection disk,

such as the “XG for Piano” disks, you can specify phrase

numbers in the score to play back from the score from the

mark point, or to play back the phrase repeatedly.

If you start playing back a Song with “Repeat On”

selected, the count down starts, followed by the repeated

playback of the specified phrase until you press the

[STOP] button.

If you select “Repeat Off,” normal playback starts without

repeat.

Setting range of the phrase number:

--- (not specified)

000 – the last phrase number of the Song

NOTE

If you select any Song without the phrase marks, you can select

only “Off.”

You can correct the timing of notes. For example, you can

adjust recorded notes to precise eighth or sixteenth notes.

Changes are made by Song.

Notes for which you can adjust the timing:

The three Quantize settings marked with asterisks (*) are

exceptionally convenient, since they allow you to quantize two

different note values at the same time. For example, when the

straight eighth notes and eighth notes triplet are contained in the

same part, if you quantize by the straight eighth notes, all notes in

the part are quantized to straight eighth notes—completely

eliminating any triplet feel.

However, if you use the eighth note + eighth note triplet setting,

both the straight and triplet notes will be quantized correctly.

Default setting:

1/16

Setting the Quantize strength*

From this display, you can determine how strongly the

notes will be quantized. A setting of 100% produces exact

timing. If a value less than 100% is selected, notes will be

moved toward the specified quantization beats according

to the specified percentage. Applying less than 100%

quantization lets you preserve some of the “human” feel

in the recording.

TRANSPOSE = To change the key

(Changing the key: To raise or lower the overall pitch of the entire

Song.)

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

the Song as if it were in C major, and the Clavinova will

transpose it to the key of F.

NOTE

Audio song playback cannot be transposed.

responds to the way you play the keys).

Setting range:

• Light

With a soft touch, the Clavinova produces a loud sound. The

volume level of tones tends to be consistent.

•Medium

Standard touch response.

• Heavy

You must hit the key very hard to generate a loud volume. This

allows for versatile expression, from pianissimo to fortissimo

tones.

•Fixed

No touch response. The volume level will be the same

regardless of how hard you play the keys. Use the B [– (NO)]

[+ (YES)] buttons to set the volume level.

Setting range of the “Fixed” volume level:

ENGLISH FRANÇAIS OWNER’S MANUAL CLP- 480 MODE D’EMPLOI ESPAÑOL MANUAL DE INSTRUCCIONES 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 rear 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 instrument, refer to the instructions at the end of this manual. IMPORTANT — Vérifiez votre alimentation électrique — Vériﬁez que la tension de l’alimentation secteur correspond à celle indiquée sur la plaque du fabricant, située sur le panneau inférieur. Les instruments destinés à certaines régions disposent d’un sélecteur de tension. Il est installé sur le panneau arrière de l’unité principale du clavier, à côté du câble d’alimentation. Assurez-vous que ce sélecteur est réglé sur la tension utilisée dans votre pays. À sa sortie d’usine, le sélecteur est réglé sur 240 V. Pour modiﬁer ce réglage, utilisez un tournevis plat et faites tourner le cadran du sélecteur jusqu’à ce que la valeur correcte apparaisse à côté de l’indicateur ﬁgurant sur le panneau. Pour plus d’informations sur l’assemblage de l’instrument, reportez-vous aux instructions ﬁgurant à la ﬁn de ce manuel. IMPORTANTE — Revise la fuente de alimentación — Asegúrese de que la tensión de la red eléctrica local de CA coincida con la tensión especiﬁcada en la placa del panel inferior.

BOARD SPEAKER] button to turn the function on and off. When it is on, the lamp lights. To ensure optimum performance of the GP Soundboard Speaker function, place the instrument so that the rear side of the instrument is 1– 2 cm away from the wall. You can also set the depth of GP Soundboard Speaker. For details, refer to “Detailed settings for acoustic effects” on page 67. Introduction Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano 15 Using the pedals This instrument is equipped with three foot pedals: damper pedal (right), sostenuto pedal (center), and soft pedal (left). Damper pedal (right pedal) When you press the damper pedal, the notes you play have a longer sustain. When you select a Grand Piano Voice, pressing the damper pedal activates the instrument’s special “Sustain Samples” to accurately recreate the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano’s soundboard and strings. You can set the depth of the Sustain Sampling (page 71). NOTE For details about the Grand Piano Voices to which the Sustain Sampling can be applied, refer to Preset Voice List (detailed) on page 75. When you press the damper pedal here, the notes you play before you release the pedal have a longer sustain. NOTE You can assign other functions to each pedal by using “RPedalFunc,” ”CPedalFunc” and ”LPedalFunc” in Voice Setting (page 65). Half-pedal function This instrument also has a Half-pedal function which allows you to use half-damper techniques, in which the damper is pressed somewhere between all the way down and all the way up. In this half-damper state (on a real piano), the damper felts only partially mute the strings. The Half-pedal function on the Clavinova lets you delicately and expressively control the damper muting, and create subtle nuances in your performance. It also lets you finely control the point at which pressure on the pedal affects the damper muting. (Refer to “Other settings — [FUNCTION]” on page 70.) NOTE GP Responsive Damper Pedal The damper pedal of this instrument is the 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. Since the pressing sensation may vary depending on the situation, including the location where the instrument is installed, you should adjust the halfpedal point to the desired setting (page 70). Sostenuto pedal (center pedal) If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal while holding the note(s), the notes will sustain as long as the pedal is held. All subsequent notes will not sustain. Soft pedal (left pedal) When you press the sostenuto pedal here while holding the note(s), the notes will sustain as long as you hold the 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. When you wish to apply this effect, play notes after pressing the pedal. Keep in mind that this pedal function will be changed from the Soft pedal depending on the selected Voice. When the Jazz Organ or Mellow Organ is selected, pressing and releasing this pedal switches between “fast” and “slow” of the Rotary Speaker speed (“RotarySpeed” on page 64). When the Vibraphone is selected, this pedal switches between on and off of the Vibrato (“VibeRotorOnOff ” on page 64). 16 Introduction Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano The pedals are covered with vinyl covers when shipped from the factory. For optimum use of the GP Responsive Damper Pedal, we recommend that you remove the cover from the damper pedal. NOTE While the sostenuto (center) pedal is held, the Voices in the [PIPE ORGAN], [JAZZ ORGAN], [STRINGS], [CHOIR] and some Voices in the [XG] may sound continuously without decay after the notes have been released. NOTE The center pedal or left pedal can be used as equivalent to the [PLAY/PAUSE] button on the panel by setting the “PedalPlay/Pause” parameter (page 70). Using the metronome — METRONOME [ON/OFF] The instrument has a built-in metronome (a device that keeps an accurate tempo) that is a convenient tool for practice. 1 2 TEMPO [DOWN] [UP] buttons 1. Press the METRONOME [ON/OFF] button to start the metronome. Adjusting the tempo Press the TEMPO [DOWN] or [UP] button to call up the tempo in the display. Tempo 120 To adjust the tempo (number of beats per minute: 5 – 500), use the TEMPO [DOWN]/[UP] or the D [–]/[+] buttons. To reset the tempo to the default setting (120), press the [DOWN] and [UP] buttons or the D [–] and [+] buttons simultaneously. Press the [EXIT] button to return to the Voice display. 2. NOTE You can set the time signature, metronome volume, and metronome sound using the METRONOME [SETTING] button (page 60). Press the METRONOME [ON/OFF] button to stop the metronome. Touch Response You can specify the Touch Response (how the sound responds to the way you play the keys). You should adjust this setting according to the specific Voice you’re playing or the particular Song you’re performing, as desired. For information about how to make settings, refer to “Other settings — [FUNCTION]” on page 68. Introduction Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano 17 Introduction to the controls This instrument has many buttons and controls — so many that you may feel overwhelmed at first.

Grand Piano 18 Introduction Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano Maintenance To keep your Clavinova in optimum condition, we recommend that you periodically follow the maintenance points below. Instrument and Bench Maintenance • When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. NOTICE Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths. If you are using 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. To keep the surface polished, apply commercially available piano polisher to a soft cloth and wipe the instrument’s surface with it. Then, polish it with a separate cloth. Before using any piano polisher, make sure to read the instructions for proper usage. • Tighten the screws of the instrument and bench periodically. Bench Height Adjustment (for applicable benches) The bench height can be adjusted by rotating the handle. Rotating clockwise heightens the bench. (Before shipment, the handle is firmly fastened.) Pedal Cleaning As with an acoustic piano, pedals may become tarnished over years of use. When this occurs, polish the pedal with a compound designed for piano pedals. Before using the compound, make sure to read the instructions for proper usage. Tuning Unlike an acoustic piano, the instrument does not need to be tuned. It always stays perfectly in tune. Transporting You can transport the instrument along with other belongings. You can move the unit as it is (assembled) or you can disassemble the unit down to the condition it was in when you first took it out of the box. Transport the keyboard horizontally. Do not lean it up against a wall or stand it up on its side. Do not subject the instrument to excessive vibration or shock. When transporting the assembled instrument, make sure all screws are properly tightened and have not been loosened by moving the instrument. NOTE To ensure optimum performance of the GP Soundboard Speaker function, place the instrument so that the rear side of the instrument is 1 – 2 cm away from the wall.

In addition to listening to these Songs, you can play the keyboard as the Song plays back. MIDI Songs and Audio Songs There are two kinds of Songs that can be recorded and played back on this instrument: MIDI Songs and Audio Songs. A MIDI Song is comprised of your keyboard performance information 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 Clavinova, etc.) outputs the corresponding sound. A MIDI Song uses a small amount of data capacity in comparison to audio song, and allows you to easily change aspects of the sound, such as Voices used, etc. An Audio Song is a recording of the performed sound itself. This data is recorded in the same way as that used in recording 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. For a general overview of MIDI and how you can effectively use it, refer to “MIDI Basics” (downloadable from the Yamaha website). You can play back the following types of Songs in this instrument. • Preset Songs (50 Piano Preset Songs) • Your own recorded Songs (see page 33 for instructions on recording) • Commercially available MIDI Song data: SMF (Standard MIDI File) or ESEQ NOTE For information on compatible data formats, refer to page 6. The maximum size for playback on this instrument is approx. 550KB per single MIDI Song. • Commercially available Audio Song data: WAV (file extension = .wav with 44.1 kHz sample rate, 16 bit resolution, stereo, and maximum 80 minutes length) Playing back a Song If you wish to play back the Song in a USB storage device, read “Connecting a USB storage device” (page 51), then connect a USB storage device to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal. 1 1. 2. 43 2-1 2-2 5 Press the [SONG SELECT] button to enter the Song mode.

Recording is done without specifying the recorded part. Since it is saved in stereo WAV format of normal CD-quality resolution (44.1 kHz/16 bit), it can be transmitted to and played on portable music players by using a computer. This instrument’s recordable time is up to 80 minutes per single Audio recording. If you wish to record on a USB storage device, read “Connecting a USB storage device” (page 51) then follow the instructions below after connecting the USB storage device to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal. For details about the difference between MIDI Songs and Audio Songs, refer to page 27. Recording method As described above, two methods are available. Recording without specifying the Part (MIDI/Audio data format) ..................................................................................................... page 34 With MIDI data format recording, the performance will be recorded to Part 1. Multi Recording of specific Parts (MIDI data format) .............. page 36 This lets you record the right, left and extra parts separately. Since you can record the left part while playing back the right, this is useful for recording both parts of a duet. Since you can record up to sixteen parts separately, record the performance of each instrument part one by one and create fully orchestrated compositions. Part 1 [RIGHT] corresponds to Part 1. Record the right-hand part to [RIGHT]. Part 2 [LEFT] corresponds to Part 2. Record the left-hand part to [LEFT]. NOTE (For Multi Recording) Depending on the Song, such as commercially available Song data, Part assignment to each button may be different from the illustration shown at left. Part 3 Part 4 [EXTRA PARTS] corresponds to Parts 3 – 16. Record Parts 3 – 16 in addition to Parts 1 and 2 when you are recording a Song which has many parts, such as that of an ensemble or orchestra.

Setting range of the phrase number: --- (not specified) 000 – the last phrase number of the Song The three Quantize settings marked with asterisks (*) are exceptionally convenient, since they allow you to quantize two different note values at the same time. For example, when the straight eighth notes and eighth notes triplet are contained in the same part, if you quantize by the straight eighth notes, all notes in the part are quantized to straight eighth notes—completely eliminating any triplet feel. However, if you use the eighth note + eighth note triplet setting, both the straight and triplet notes will be quantized correctly. Default setting: 1/16 Setting the Quantize strength* NOTE If you select any Song without the phrase marks, you can select only “Off.” Correcting note timing* Quantize You can correct the timing of notes. For example, you can adjust recorded notes to precise eighth or sixteenth notes. Changes are made by Song. Stores the changed value. Quantize Execute?_ > Strength=100% 1/16 From this display, you can determine how strongly the notes will be quantized. A setting of 100% produces exact timing. If a value less than 100% is selected, notes will be moved toward the specified quantization beats according to the specified percentage. Applying less than 100% quantization lets you preserve some of the “human” feel in the recording.

Select the parameters to be set. [FUNCTION] button Changing the key Selecting a touch response Transpose TouchResponse TRANSPOSE = To change the key (Changing the key: To raise or lower the overall pitch of the entire Song.) 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 the Song as if it were in C major, and the Clavinova will transpose it to the key of F. You can specify a touch response (how the sound responds to the way you play the keys). Set the “Fixed” volume. TouchResponse Vel= 64 Fixed Select the setting. Setting range: • Light With a soft touch, the Clavinova produces a loud sound. The volume level of tones tends to be consistent. NOTE Audio song playback cannot be transposed. • Medium Standard touch response. Transpose Master Select what sound the transpose is applied to. • Heavy 0 Set the Transpose value. Setting for: • Master The sound of the entire instrument (the manually-played sound and the Song playback). • Keyboard The manually-played sound. • Song The Song playback. Default setting: Master Determines the amount of pitch transposition Setting range: -12 (-1 octave) – 0 (normal pitch) – +12 (+1 octave) Default setting: 0 68 Detailed Settings Other settings — [FUNCTION] You must hit the key very hard to generate a loud volume. This allows for versatile expression, from pianissimo to fortissimo tones. • Fixed No touch response. The volume level will be the same regardless of how hard you play the keys. Use the B [– (NO)] [+ (YES)] buttons to set the volume level. Setting range of the “Fixed” volume level: 1 – 127 Default setting: Medium NOTE “TouchResponse” determines the touch sensitivity of an instrument. The MIDI note-on velocity data is changed when you play the keyboard with a consistent touch. Fine tuning the pitch Selecting a scale Tune Scale You can fine tune the pitch of the entire instrument. This function is useful when you play the Clavinova along with other instruments or CD music. Select a root note. Scale NOTE BaseNote=C PureMajor The pitch of audio song playback cannot be fine tuned. Select a scale. Tune A3=440.0Hz Setting range: • Equal One octave is divided into twelve equal intervals. Currently most popular piano tuning scale. Set the value. • PureMajor/PureMinor Setting range: Based on natural overtones, three major chords using these scales produce a beautiful, pure sound. A3 = 414.8 Hz – 466.8 Hz (0.2 Hz steps) • Pythagorean Default setting: 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 beautiful and suitable for some leads. A3 = 440.0 Hz • MeanTone This scale is an improvement of the Pythagorean in that the swell of the 3rd has been eliminated. It spread during the late 16th century through the late 18th century. Handel used this scale. Selecting a tuning curve for a piano Voice PianoTuningCurve You can select a tuning curve from the Voices in the [GRAND PIANO 1] – [GRAND PIANO 4]. Select “Flat” if you feel the tuning curve of the piano Voice does not quite match that of other instruments’ Voices. • 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 also often used now to reproduce the music of that era on harpsichords. Default setting: Equal PianoTuningCurve Stretch Select the setting. Setting range: • Stretch Determines the fundamental (root) note for the scale If you select a scale other than Equal, you need to specify the root note using the B [– (NO)][+ (YES)] buttons. Setting range: Tuning curve particularly for pianos. • Flat Tuning curve in which the frequency is precisely octave doubled over the entire keyboard range. Default setting: C Default setting: Stretch Detailed Settings Other settings — [FUNCTION] 69 Specifying the Split Point Selecting a type of auxiliary pedal SplitPoint AuxPedalType You can specify the split point (the boundary between the right-hand and left-hand keyboard areas).

Wrong selection 80 Appendix Message List The file operation you attempted cannot be executed to the selected drive. For information on the limitations of handling Song files, see page 41. Troubleshooting When a message is displayed, refer to the “Message List” (page 78) for troubleshooting aid. 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. This is normal when electrical current is being applied to the instrument. Noise is heard from the speakers or headphones. The noise may be due to interference caused by the use of a mobile phone in close proximity to the instrument. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the instrument. 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] dial (page 14). The volume level for the keyboard performance is set too low. Move the [SONG BALANCE] slider toward “KEYBOARD” to increase the keyboard volume (page 40). Headphones are connected when the Speaker setting is “Normal (HeadphoneSW)” (page 71). Disconnect the headphone plug. Speaker setting is “Off.” Set the Speaker to “Normal (HeadphoneSW)” or “On” (page 71). Local Control is “Off.” Set Local Control “On” (page 72). “Expression” is assigned to the right pedal or the AUX pedal. Assign any function other than “Expression” to the pedal (page 65). The speakers do not switch off when a pair of headphones is connected to the [PHONES] jack. Speaker setting is “On.” Set the speaker setting to “Normal (HeadphoneSW)” (page 71). The tone quality and/or volume from the speakers or headphones has changed. The sound condition output from the internal speakers and the headphones changes automatically to the appropriate settings depending on how the external device is connected to the AUX OUT jacks. See chart on page 50. Pedals do not function. The pedal cord may not be securely connected to the [PEDAL] jack. Be sure to insert the pedal cord all the way until the metal part of the cord plug disappears from view (page 85). The on/off setting of the pedal connected to the AUX PEDAL jack is reversed. Some types of pedals may turn on and off in opposite fashion. Use the “AuxPedalType” parameter (page 70) in the “FUNCTION” menu to change the external pedal setting. The keyboard volume is lower than the Song playback volume. The volume level for the keyboard performance is set too low. Move the [SONG BALANCE] slider toward “KEYBOARD” to increase the keyboard volume (page 40). The buttons do not respond. While you are using a function, some buttons not used for the function are disabled. If the Song is playing, stop playback. Otherwise, press the [EXIT] button to return to the Voice display. Then, perform the desired operation. Higher or lower notes do not sound correctly when the transpose or octave setting is made. This instrument can cover the range of C -2 – G8 when you set the transposition or octave. If notes lower than C -2 are played, the sound is moved one octave higher. If notes higher than G8 are played, the sound is moved one octave lower. Performance in Dual or Split mode is not recorded, or part data is lost unexpectedly. Switching to Dual mode or Split mode in the middle of the Song is not recorded. Also, the recording part for the Voice 2 (Dual mode) or the left-hand Voice (Split mode) is automatically assigned (page 40). If the assigned part already has data, the data will be overwritten and deleted when you record. The Song title is not correct. The “CharacterCode” setting may be different than that is selected when you named the Song. Also, if the Song was recorded on another instrument, the title might be displayed incorrectly. Use the “CharacterCode” parameter (page 48) in the [FILE/SONG SETTING] menu to change the setting. However, if the Song was recorded on another instrument, changing the “CharacterCode” parameter setting may not resolve the problem.
