AC adaptor

DC 12V terminal

Household power outlet

Power cord

Preparing a Power Supply

Though either an AC adaptor or batteries can be used for power, use of AC adaptor power is normally
recommended.

Using the AC Adaptor

Use only the AC adaptor (JEITA Standard with unified polarity plug) specified for this Digital Keyboard.
Use of a different type of AC adaptor can cause malfunction.

AC Adaptor Type: AD-A12150LW (JEITA Standard plug)

• Never connect the AC adaptor (JEITA Standard, with unified polarity plug) that comes with

this Digital Keyboard to any other device besides this Digital Keyboard. Doing so creates the
risk of malfunction.

• Be sure to turn off Digital Keyboard power before connecting or disconnecting the AC

adaptor.

• The AC adaptor will become warm to the touch after very long use. This is normal and does

not indicate malfunction.

• Note the following important precautions to avoid damage to the power cord.

During Use

• Never pull on the cord with excessive force.

• Never repeatedly pull on the cord.

• Never twist the cord at the base of the plug or connector.

During Movement

• Before moving the Digital Keyboard, be sure to unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet.

During Storage

• Loop and bundle the power cord, but never wind it around the AC adaptor.

EN-8

Getting Ready to Play

• Never insert metal, pencils, or any other objects into the product’s DC12V terminal. Doing so

creates the risk of accident.

• Do not try to use the power cord that comes with the product with another device.

• Use the AC adaptor so its label surface is pointed downwards. The AC adaptor becomes

prone to emitting electromagnetic waves when the label surface is facing upwards.

• Plug the AC adaptor into a power outlet that is close to the Digital Keyboard. This lets you

immediately unplug from the power outlet should any problem occur.

• The AC adaptor is intended for indoor use only. Do not leave it in a location where it can

become wet. Also, do not place a vase or any other container of liquid on the AC adaptor.

• Make sure that the AC adaptor does not become covered with a newspaper, table cloth,

curtain, or any other type of fabric.

• If you do not plan to use the Digital Keyboard for a long time, unplug the AC adaptor from the

power outlet.

• The AC adaptor cannot be repaired. If your AC adaptor malfunctions or becomes damaged,

you need to purchase a new one.

• AC Adaptor Usage Environment

Temperature: 0 to 40°C

• Use commercially available AA-size alkaline batteries or AA-size rechargeable nickel metal

hydride batteries.

• Low battery power can cause abnormal operation. If this happens, replace batteries with new

ones. If you are using rechargeable batteries, charge them.

• Actual continuous operation time may be shorter due to battery type, performance type, and

usage environment. In particular, Active DSP (page
function settings can dramatically shorten the battery operation time. Power the Digital
Keyboard with the AC adaptor when using these functions.

■ Batteries

Note the precautions below when using rechargeable batteries.

• Use Panasonic Group AA-size eneloop rechargeable batteries. Do not use any other type of
batteries.

• Use only the specified charger to charge batteries.

• Rechargeable batteries must be removed from the product for charging.

• For information about using eneloop batteries or their specified charger, be sure to read the user

documentation and precautions that come with each item, and use them only as directed.

Playing Lyric Tones (Vocal Synthesis)

This digital keyboard has a Vocal Synthesis function that lets you play a singing voice on the keyboard.
You can create various singing voices by selecting the lyrics to be sung and adjusting the voice quality.
You can also configure various performance settings, such as how the performance advances through
the lyrics when playing on the keyboard.
You can use an app running on a phone or tablet to perform with lyrics you created, to perform lyrics
using animal sounds, and more.

■ What is Vocal Synthesis?

Vocal Synthesis is a function that creates an artificial singing voice.
This digital keyboard has a Vocal Synthesis sound source for singing voices.
The Vocal Synthesis sound source was created using machine learning to statistically model
singing voices based on research by the Nagoya Institute of Technology.
The sound source can synthesize a smooth singing voice using simple lyrics and without any
special adjustment.
The conventional PCM sound source method reproduces pre-recorded instrument sounds in
accordance with the pitch played on the keyboard. Vocal Synthesis sound sources offer a whole
new musical instrument experience that was not possible with conventional methods.

Main Features of the Vocal Synthesis Sound Source

1. Support for English and Japanese

You can create lyrics in either of two languages.

2. Vocal timbre creation in real-time

Simple knob operations let you instantly change singing voice characteristics, such as gender
and age.

3. Lyric play on the keyboard

Not only can you play single notes, but you can also play chorus group-like harmonies using
chords.

Adjusting the Timing When Lyrics are Sounded

Lyric tones have the elements of “sounding speed (Lyric Tone Speed)” and “sound attack speed (Lyric
Tone Attack Balancer/Lyric Tone Attack)”. You can adjust these elements if the lyric tone performance
mode is NOTE mode. The lyric tone attack element can also be adjusted in the PHRASE mode.

Adjusting the Speed of Lyric Advancement (Lyric Tone Speed)

Whether lyrics are sung slowly or fast affects the length of consonant pronunciation, and the way
syllables are linked. You can achieve a more natural-sounding singing voice by setting the lyric tone
speed to the tempo you will actually play. If the sound when playing the lyric tone is unnatural or if you
are concerned about sound timing, try adjusting the lyric tone speed.

a certain percentage to make the singing voice easier to play on the keyboard.

Using a Pedal

Connecting a pedal lets you perform pedal operations that add various effects during your
performances. The PEDAL1 jack is compatible with switch pedals that pedal release, and the
PEDAL2/EXPRESSION jack is compatible with both volume pedals and switch pedals that detect the
amount of depression.
This Digital Keyboard does not come with a pedal unit. Purchase one separately.

• You can also use a pedal to change the registration setup. For details, see “

the Settings Sequentially (Registration Sequence)

” (page EN-177).

Using a Switch Pedal

1.

Connect a pedal to the PEDAL1 or PEDAL2/EXPRESSION jack.

• Under initial default settings, pedal sustain is assigned to the PEDAL1 jack so it can be used as

a damper pedal.

• Under initial default settings, the soft function is assigned to the PEDAL2/EXPRESSION jack

so it can be used as a soft pedal.

2.

Depress and release the pedal as you play the keyboard.

• With the pedal sustain function, notes are sustained as long as you hold down the pedal, even if
you release the keyboard keys.

• With the soft function, notes become slightly quieter and softer while the pedal is depressed.

Applying the Effect You Want to a Tone (Active DSP)

■ Active DSP

A DSP (Digital Signal Processor) is a type of effect connected between the sound source and output.
DSP types are equalizer, tremolo, limiter, wah, etc. Many of the built-in tones of your Digital Keyboard
are preset with DSPs that are suited for each tone. Such tones are called “DSP tones”. Your Digital
Keyboard is equipped with Active DSP, which allows you to change DSP settings. The Digital Keyboard
DSPs that can be configured using Active DSP are configured as shown below.

Sound Source Output

DSP

• A DSP consists of one or more DSP modules (“Module” in the above illustration).

• Your Digital Keyboard comes with 100 preset DSPs. The number of DSP modules and the module

type (equalizer, tremolo, limiter, wah, etc.) are defined for each DSP.

• You can use the knobs to manipulate DSP parameters in real-time.

For an Active DSP, first you need to select a preset DSP. You can use the knobs to manipulate DSP
parameters in real-time. You can also fine-tune the parameters, if you want.
For details about DSP types, DSP modules, and the parameters of each DSP module, see the “

” on page EN-323 and the “DSP Effect List” on page EN-326.
