• Whenever connecting something to the digital piano, first use the VOLUME controller to set the volume to a low level. After connecting, you can adjust the volume to the level you want.

Connecting Headphones

Connecting headphones to either of the PHONES jack cuts off output to the speakers, which means you can practice even late at night without bothering others. To protect your hearing, make sure that you do not set the volume level too high when using headphones.

• Be sure to push the headphones plug into the PHONES jacks as far as it will go. If you don’t, you may hear sound from only one side of the headphones.

• If the plug of the headphones you are using does not match the PHONES jacks, use the applicable commercially available adaptor plug.

• If you are using headphones that require an adaptor plug, make sure you do not leave the adaptor plugged in when you unplug the headphones. If you do, nothing will sound from the speakers when you play.

Connecting Audio Equipment (Figure )

Use commercially available connecting cords (Standard Plug × 1, Pin Plugs × 2) to connect as shown in Figure . Make sure that the end of the cord that you connect to the digital piano is a stereo standard plug. A monaural standard plug will result in output of only one of the two stereo channels. Normally, you should set the input selector of the audio equipment to the terminal where the digital piano is connected (AUX IN, etc.) Adjust volume using the digital piano’s VOLUME controller.

Connecting a Music Amplifier (Figure )

Connect the connecting cord* to one of the types of amplifiers shown in Figure . Adjust volume using the digital piano’s VOLUME controller.

* Digital Piano: Stereo standard plug

Amplifier : Inputs signals for the left and right

channels. Not connecting either plug will result in output of only one of the two stereo channels.

Bundled and Optional Accessories

Connecting Audio Equipment or an Amplifier

• GRAND PIANO tones (MODERN, CLASSIC)

Use the VOLUME controller to adjust the volume.

Your digital piano has a total of 16 built-in tones. The MODERN and CLASSIC tones are stereo sampled tones that can be selected using the GRAND PIANO buttons. Try using the GRAND PIANO tones to familiarize yourself with their distinctive sounds and characteristics.

Tone Name Characteristics

MODERN This tone provides a bright grand piano

sound. The volume and timbre of this tone is quick to respond to different keyboard pressures, and it has relatively strong reverb. This tone is a good choice for dynamic and lively performances.

CLASSIC This is a natural piano tone that closely

resembles the sound of an acoustic grand piano. Reverb and other effects are kept to a minimum in order to enhance the impact of piano pedals operations (acoustic resonance), for musically delicate expressions. This tone is a good choice for lesson and practice sessions.

Playing with Different Tones

To adjust the brilliance of a tone

While holding down the FUNCTION button, use the BRILLIANCE keys to specify a brilliance value in the range of –3 to 0 to 3.

For this type of sound:

Mellower and softer

Brighter and harder

It takes a long time before I can use the Digital Piano after I turn it on.

A tone’s quality and volume sounds slightly different depending where it is played on the keyboard.

When I press a button, the note that is sounding cuts out momentarily or there is a slight change in how effects are applied.

Digital Piano memory data was corrupted because a data transfer operation with a computer was in progress the last time you turned off the piano. When this happens, the Digital Piano performs a memory format operation the next time you turn it on. You cannot perform any other operation while a format operation is in progress.

This is an unavoidable result of the digital sampling process, * Multiple digital samples are taken for the low range, middle range, and high range of the original

musical instrument. Because of this, there may be very slight differences in tonal quality and volume between sample ranges.

This happens when the sounds of multiple parts are sounding at the same time while using layer, using the Duet Mode, playing back a built-in tune, recording, etc. Pressing a button when one of these conditions exists will cause the effect setting that is built into the tone to change automatically, which causes notes to cut out momentarily or causes a slight change in how effects are being applied.

towards “MAX”.

2. Disconnect whatever is connected to the

PHONES jacks.
