Connecting Headphones (Figure

Connecting headphones cuts off output from the keyboard’s built-in speakers, so you can play even late at night without disturbing anyone.

Audio Equipment (Figure

Connect the keyboard to a audio equipment using a commercially available connecting cord with a standard plug on one end and two PIN plugs on the other end. Note that the standard plug you connect to the keyboard must be a stereo plug, otherwise you will be able to output only one of stereo channels. In this configuration, you normally set the input selector of the audio equipment to the terminal (usually marked AUX IN or something similar) where the cord from the keyboard is connected. See the user documentation that comes with your audio equipment for full details.

Musical Instrument Amplifier (Figure

Use a commercially available connecting cord to connect the keyboard to a musical instrument amplifier.

❚

NOTE

Be sure to use a connecting cord that has a stereo standard plug on the end you connect to the keyboard, and a connector that provides dual channel (left and right) input to the amplifier to which you are connecting. The wrong type of connector at either end can cause one of the stereo channels to be lost.

When connected to a musical instrument amplifier, set the volume of the keyboard to a relatively low level and make output volume adjustments using the amplifier’s controls.

• This difference between a sostenuto pedal and sustain pedal is the timing. With a sostenuto pedal, you press the keys and then depress the pedal before you release the keys. Only the notes that are sounding when the pedal is depressed are sustained.

Soft Pedal

Depressing the pedal softens the sound of the notes being played.

Rhythm Start/Stop Pedal

In this case, the pedal performs the same functions as the START/ STOP button.

Accessories and Options

Use only the accessories and options specified for this keyboard. Use of non-authorized items creates the danger of fire, electrical shock, and personal injury.

This keyboard can be powered by current from a standard household wall outlet (using the specified AC adaptor) or by batteries. Always make sure you turn the keyboard off whenever you are not using it.

Using batteries

Always make sure you turn off the keyboard before loading or replacing batteries.

To load batteries

1. Remove the battery compartment cover.

2. Load 6 D-size batteries into the battery compartment.

• Make sure that the positive (+) and negative (–) ends are facing correctly.

3. Insert the tabs on the battery compartment cover into

the holes provided and close the cover.

The keyboard may not function correctly if you load or replace batteries with power turned on. If this happens, turning the keyboard off and then back on again should return functions back to normal.

Auto Power Off

When you are using battery power, keyboard power turns off automatically whenever you leave it on without performing any operation for about 6 minutes. When this happens, press the POWER button to turn power back on.

❚

NOTE

❚

Auto Power Off is disabled (it does not function) when you are using the AC adaptor to power the keyboard.

To disable Auto Power Off

Hold down the TONE button while turning on the keyboard to disable Auto Power Off.

• When this function is turned off, the keyboard does not turn off automatically no matter how long it is left with no operation being performed.

• Auto Power Off is enabled again when you manually turn off power and then turn it back on again.

Settings and Memory Contents

Settings

Tone, rhythm, and other “main keyboard settings” in effect when power is turned off manually with the POWER button or automatically by Auto Power Off remain in effect when you next turn power back on.

Main Keyboard Settings

Main keyboard settings are: tone number, layer, split, split point, touch response, rhythm number, tempo, accompaniment volume, General MIDI mode on/off, accomp MIDI OUT on/off, Assignable jack setting, keyboard channel, and tune number.

Memory Contents

In addition to the above settings, data stored using the memory function is also retained.

Electrical Power

The settings and memory data described above are retained as long as the keyboard is being supplied with electrical power. Unplugging the AC adaptor when batteries are not loaded or when loaded batteries are dead cuts off the keyboard’s electrical power supply. This causes all settings to be initialized to their factory defaults and clears all data stored in memory.

Power Requirements

Note the following precautions whenever you want to ensure that current keyboard settings and memory contents are not lost.

• Make sure the keyboard is being supplied power through the AC adaptor before replacing its batteries.

• Before unplugging the AC adaptor, make sure that fresh batteries are loaded in the keyboard.

• Make sure that keyboard power is turned off before replacing batteries or unplugging the AC adaptor.

details. each keyboard key is assigned a different percussion sound. See page

A-3 for details.

Polyphony

The term polyphony refers to the maximum number of notes you can play at the same time. The keyboard has 24-note polyphony, which includes the notes you play as well as the rhythms and auto-accompaniment patterns that are played by the keyboard. This means that when a rhythm or auto-accompaniment pattern is being played by the keyboard, the number of notes (polyphony) available for keyboard play is reduced. Also note that some of the tones offer only 12note polyphony.

• When rhythm or auto accompaniment is playing, the number of sounds simultaneously played is reduced.

Digital Sampling

A number of the tones that are available with this keyboard have been recorded and processed using a technique called digital sampling. To ensure a high level of tonal quality, samples are taken in the low, mid, and high ranges and then combined to provide you with sounds that are amazingly close to the originals. You may notice very slight differences in volume or sound quality for some tones when you play them at different positions on the keyboard. This is an unavoidable result of multiple sampling, and it is not a sign of malfunction.

3. Use the number buttons to input the three digit tone

number for the tone you want to select.

Example: To select “032 ACOUSTIC BASS”, input 0, 3 and then

FULL RANGE CHORD

This accompaniment method provides a total of 38 different chord types: the 15 chord types available with FINGERED plus 23 additional types. The keyboard interprets any input of three or more keys that matches a FULL RANGE CHORD pattern to be a chord. Any other input (that is not a FULL RANGE CHORD pattern) is interpreted as melody play. Because of this, there is no need for a separate accompaniment keyboard, so the entire keyboard, from end to end, can be used for both melody and chords.

3-Step Lesson

The 3-step lesson feature takes you through the three distinct steps described below to help you learn to play tunes on the keyboard.

Step 1 – Master the timing.

In this step, pressing any key on the keyboard plays the correct note, so you can concentrate on getting the timing right without worrying about playing the right note. The sub-melody (obbligato) waits until you press a key before proceeding to the next phrase.

Step 2 – Master the melody.

In this step, you learn the keys to press to play the melody. The keys you need to press light on the on-screen keyboard guide, so simply follow along as you learn to play. The sub-melody (obbligato) waits until your play the correct note, so you can learn at your own pace.

Step 3 – Play a normal speed.

This is where you enjoy actually playing the tunes you learn using Step 1 and Step 2. The on-screen keyboard guide still shows you which keyboard keys to press, but accompaniment proceeds at normal speed regardless of whether or not you play the correct notes.

Tune Types and Their Parts

The built-in tunes of this keyboard are divided between two basic groups: Auto Accompaniment tunes (Song Bank) and two-hand accompaniment tunes (Etude and Concert Piece). The parts available for 3-step lesson practice depend on the type of tune you are using.

Auto Accompaniment Tunes (Song Bank)

As their name suggests, these tunes are made up of an Auto Accompaniment part and a melody part. When using these tunes for a 3step lesson, you can practice playing along with the melody (right hand) part only.

Two-hand Tunes (Etude, Concert Piece)

These types of tunes are played with both hands, as in a piano solo. When using these tunes for a 3-step lesson, you can practice playing along with both the left hand and right hand parts.

Display Contents During 3-step Lesson Play

Whenever you select an Auto Accompaniment tune for 3-step lesson play, the on-screen keyboard guide and staff notation shows the note you should play and its length. The on-screen keyboard guide also shows the notes you play on the keyboard. The following describes the information that appears on the display.

Note Pitch

The key you should press lights on the on-screen keyboard guide, while the actual pitch of the note appears in the display’s staff notation area. The fingers you should use to play the notes are also shown on the display.

Note Length

The key stays lit on the on-screen keyboard guide for as long as the note should be sustained. The staff notation and fingerings also remain on the display for the length of the note.

Next Note

An on-screen keyboard guide key flashes to indicate the next note to be played, while a number appears on the display near the finger you should use to play the next note.

Series of Same Pitch Notes

The on-screen keyboard guide key turns off momentarily between the notes, and lights again for each successive note. The staff notation and fingerings also turn off and back on again.

Example: When play requires pressing keys with fingers 3, 2,

Keyboard Settings

This section describes how to use layer (to play two tones with a single key) and split (to assign different tones to either end of the keyboard), and how to make touch response, transpose, and tuning settings.

Using Layer

Layer lets you assign two different tones (a main tone and a layered tone) to the keyboard, both of which play whenever you press a key. For example, you could layer the FRENCH HORN tone on the BRASS tone to produce a rich and brassy sound.

To layer tones

1. First select the main tone.

Example: To select “061 BRASS” as the main tone, press the

TONE button and then use the number buttons or [+] and [–] buttons to input 0, 6 and then 1.

2. Press the LAYER button.

LAYER SPLIT

Selected layer tone Indicator appears

LAYER

Main Tone (BRASS) + Layered Tone (FRENCH HORN)

Using Split

With split you can assign two different tones (a main tone and a split tone) to either end of the keyboard, which lets you play one tone with your left hand and another tone with your right hand. For example, you could select STRINGS as the main (high range) tone and PIZZICATO as the split (low range) tone, putting an entire string ensemble at your fingertips. Split also lets you specify the split point, which is the location on the keyboard where the changeover between the two tones occurs.

To split the keyboard

1. First select the main tone.

Example: To select “048 STRINGS 1” as the main tone, press the

TONE button and then use the number buttons or [+] and [–] buttons to input 0, 4 and then 8.

3. Select the layered tone.

With piano tones and other sounds that decay, the pedal acts as a damper pedal, with sounds being sustained longer when the pedal is depressed. With organ tones and other continuous sounds, notes played on the keyboard continue to sound until the pedal is released. In either case, the sustain effect is also applied to any notes that are played while the pedal is depressed.

Messages

There is a wide variety of messages defined under the MIDI standard, and this section details the particular messages that can be sent and received by this keyboard. An asterisk is used to mark messages that affect the entire keyboard. Messages without an asterisk are those that affect only a particular channel.

NOTE ON/OFF

This message sends data when a key is pressed (NOTE ON) or released (NOTE OFF). A NOTE ON/OFF message include a note number (to indicate note whose key is being pressed or released) and velocity (keyboard pressure as a value from 1 to 127). NOTE ON velocity is always used to determine the relative volume of the note. This keyboard does not receive NOTE OFF velocity data. Whenever you press or release a key on this keyboard, the corresponding NOTE ON or NOTE OFF message is sent from the MIDI OUT terminal.

E-39

❚

NOTE

❚

The pitch of a note depends on the tone that is being used, as shown in the Note Table on page A-1. Whenever this keyboard receives a note number that is outside its range for that tone, the same tone in the nearest available octave is substituted.

PROGRAM CHANGE

This is the tone selection message. PROGRAM CHANGE can contain tone data within the range of 0 to 127. A PROGRAM CHANGE message is sent out through this keyboard’s MIDI OUT terminal whenever you manually change its tone number. Receipt of a PROGRAM CHANGE message from an external machine changes the tone setting of this keyboard.

❚

NOTE

❚

This keyboard supports 128 tones in the range 0 to 127. However, Channel 10 is a percussion-only channel, and Channels 0, 8, 16, 24, 25, 32, 40, 48, and 62 correspond to the nine drum set sounds of this keyboard.

PITCH BEND

This message carries pitch bend information for smoothly sliding the pitch upwards or downwards during keyboard play. This keyboard does not send pitch bend data, but it can receive such data.

CONTROL CHANGE

This message adds effects such as vibrato and volume changes applied during keyboard play. CONTROL CHANGE data includes a control number (to identify the effect type) and a control value (to specify the on/off status and depth of the effect). The following is a list of data that can be send or received using CONTROL CHANGE.

ALL SOUND OFF

This message forces all sound being produced over the current channel to turn off, regardless of how the sound is being produced.

ALL NOTES OFF

This message turns off all note data sent from an external device and currently being sounded on the channel.

• Any notes being sustained using a sustain pedal or sostenuto pedal continue to sound until the next pedal off.

RESET ALL CONTROLLERS

This messages initializes pitch bend and all other control changes.

SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE*

This message is used to control system exclusives, which are tone fine adjustments that are unique to a particular machine. Originally, system exclusives were unique to a particular model, but now there are also universal system exclusives that are applicable to machines that are different models and even produced by different manufacturers. The following are the system exclusive messages supported by this keyboard.

■

GM SYSTEM ON ([F0][7E][7F][09][01][F7

GM SYSTEM ON is used by an external machine to turn on this keyboard’s GM system. GM stands for General MIDI.

• GM SYSTEM ON takes more time to process than other messages, so when GM SYSTEM ON is stored in the sequencer it can take more than 100msec until the next message.
