Returning the Digital Keyboard to Its Factory Default Settings

There are two ways to reset the Digital Keyboard to its default settings: a “setting reset” that initializes settings only without deleting data, and a “factory reset” that initializes settings and deletes all data, returning the Digital Keyboard to the state it was in when it left the factory.

For details, see “Batch Deleting Data from Digital Keyboard Memory” (page EN-113).

EN-7

Preparing a Power Supply

Your Digital Keyboard uses an AC adaptor for power.

Though the CT-X8000IN supports battery operation, use of an AC adaptor is generally recommended.

Using the AC Adaptor

Make sure that you use only the AC adaptor specified for this Digital Keyboard. Use of a different type of AC adaptor can cause malfunction.

Power cord

AC adaptor

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.

Never insert metal, pencils, or any other objects into the product’s DC24V (CT-X9000IN) or DC12V (CTX8000IN) 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.

Preparing a Power Supply

CT-X8000IN: Using Batteries

You can use six D-size batteries for power.

Be sure to turn off power before loading batteries.

It is up to you to prepare six commercially available batteries. Do not use oxyride batteries or any other nickel based batteries.

1. Open the battery cover on the bottom of the Digital Keyboard.

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

Make sure the positive + and negative - ends of the batteries are facing as shown in the illustration.

3.Insert the tabs of the battery cover into the holes on the side of the battery compartment, and close the cover.

Tabs

Low Battery Indication

The indicators shown below start to flash to let you know when battery power is low. Replace the batteries with new ones.

Low battery indicators (flash)

Turning Power On or Off

1. Connect the Digital Keyboard to a power supply.

See “Using the AC Adaptor” (page EN-8) or “CT-X8000IN: Using Batteries” (page EN-9).

2.Press 1P (power) to turn on power.

Use 2 VOLUME to adjust volume.

3.To turn off power, hold down 1P (power) again.

The message “Bye” will appear on the display and then power will turn off.

If you press 1P (power) only lightly, the display will light up momentarily but power will not turn on. This does not indicate malfunction. Press 1P (power) firmly and completely to turn on power.

Turning off the Digital Keyboard causes most current settings to be cleared. While Auto Resume function (page EN-10) is turned on, most settings are retained even when power is turned off.

Never try to perform any operation while the “Wait...” or “Bye” message is displayed. The “Wait...” or “Bye” message indicates that an internal data save operation is being performed. Turning off the Digital Keyboard can cause Digital Keyboard data to be deleted or become corrupted.

Pressing 1P (power) to turn off power actually puts the Digital Keyboard into a standby state. Minute amounts of current continue to flow within the Digital Keyboard in the standby state. If you do not plan to use the Digital Keyboard for a long time or if there is a lightning storm in your area, be sure to unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet.

Auto Power Off

If you do not perform any operation on the Digital Keyboard for about 30 minutes, power will turn off automatically.

You can disable Auto Power Off to ensure that power is not turned off automatically during a concert, etc.

Perform the procedure under “To configure function settings with the bk FUNCTION button” (page EN-107) and disable the following setting: Other (Other) 3 Auto Power Off (AutoOff) (page EN-112).

Connecting to Audio

Equipment

Digital Keyboard Audio Output

Your Digital Keyboard outputs audio from its built-in speakers and/or the PHONES jack. (CT-X9000IN: Also outputs audio from the LINE OUT jacks.)

There will be an indicator mark next to [SPEAKER] while built-in speaker output is enabled.

Displayed

There will be no indicator mark next to [SPEAKER] while built-in speaker output is disabled.

Built-in speaker output is disabled in the cases described below.

When there is a plug in the PHONES jack.*

When the following setting is disabled (Off): Speakers (Speaker) 3 Speaker on/off (Enabled) (page EN-112).

The Digital Keyboard automatically adjusts the sound to make it suitable for headphones (or, in the case of the CTX9000IN, the LINE OUT jacks) while speaker output is disabled, and for speakers while speaker output is enabled.

*When the following setting is disabled (Off): Speakers (Speaker) 3 Enabled when PHONES connected (PhoneSpk) (page EN-112).

If there is no sound output even though there is an indicator mark next to [SPEAKER], check the current settings of the 2 VOLUME knob and/or volume related settings.

To enable and disable speaker output

Perform the procedure under “To configure function settings with the bk FUNCTION button” (page EN-107) and configure the following setting: Speakers (Speaker) 3 Speaker on/off (Enabled) (page EN-112).

To output from the speakers while headphones are connected

Perform the procedure under “To configure function settings with the bk FUNCTION button” (page EN-107) and enable the following setting: Speakers (Speaker) 3 Enabled when PHONES connected (PhoneSpk) (page EN-112). This will leave speaker output enabled even if there is a plug in the PHONES jack.

Using Headphones

Using headphones normally cuts off* output from the built-in speakers, which means you can practice playing even late at night without disturbing others.

*When the following setting is disabled (Off): Speakers (Speaker) 3 Enabled when PHONES connected (PhoneSpk) (page EN-112).

fk PHONES jack (Stereo standard jack (6.3mm))

Before connecting headphones, be sure to use

2 VOLUME to turn the volume down to a low level.

After connecting, you can adjust the volume to the level you want.

Do not listen to very high volume output over headphones for long period. Doing so creates the risk of hearing damage.

If you are using headphones that require an adaptor plug, make sure you do not leave the adaptor plugged in when removing the headphones.

Headphones do not come with the Digital Keyboard. Use commercially available headphones. See page EN-3 for information about options.

Outputting Keyboard Notes to Audio Equipment

You can connect audio equipment or a music amplifier to the Digital Keyboard and then play through external speakers for more powerful volume and better sound quality.

Turn off the external device when making connections. After connecting, turn down the Digital Keyboard and external device volume levels whenever turning power on or off.

After connecting, turn on the Digital Keyboard and then the external device.

If keyboard notes sound distorted when they are sounded from external audio equipment, lower the Digital Keyboard’s volume setting.

To connect an external device to the Digital Keyboard’s PHONES jack

Connection requires commercially available connecting cords, supplied by you.

The connecting cords should have a stereo standard plug on one end and a plug that matches the configuration of the external device on the other end.

Operations Common to All Modes

About this manual

Unless otherwise specifically noted, all of the procedures in this manual assume that the Digital Keyboard is in its initial power on state (immediately after you turn on power). If you run into problems with a procedure, turn keyboard power off and back on, and then try performing the procedure again.

Note that turning off Digital Keyboard power during a procedure causes any pending unsaved data to be deleted.

Numeric Input

The [NUM] indicator on the display means that numeric input is enabled.

[NUM] indicator

S t a g e P n o

Use the procedures below to input tone numbers, setting values, etc.

Using the bm Number Keys

When entering a number or value, input all the required digits. The number of digits you need to input depends on what you are inputting. For example, to input the tone number 015 (all three digits required), input the following: [0] 3 [1] 3 [5]. In this case, the numbers being input flash until you input the final 5. The input value is registered (and 015 is displayed without flashing) after you input all of the required digits.

The range of allowable input values depends on what you are inputting. If you attempt to input a value that is outside an allowable range, the value will change to the value within the range that is closest to the one you input.

To specify a value without inputting a leading zero, enter the desired value and then press bk FUNCTION. For example, when inputting a three-digit tone number, the following operation would result in input of tone number

010:[1] 3 [0] 3 bk FUNCTION.

To discard input without finalizing it, long-press [4] (EXIT) bm number key.

Using the bn [–] and [+] Keys

Pressing [–] reduces the currently displayed number or value by one, while [+] increases it by one. Holding down either button will sequentially increase or decrease the displayed number or value until you release the button. Pressing both buttons at the same time will return the number or value to its initial default or recommended setting.

If input of a negative value is allowed, pressing [–] while the value is flashing on the display will add a minus sign (–) to the left of the value. Pressing [+] while a value is flashing changes back to a positive value.

Using the bl Dial

You can also change a displayed number or value by rotating the dial.

Playing on the Keyboard

Selecting an Effect for a Tone (Reverb, Chorus, Delay)

Your Digital Keyboard includes reverb, chorus, and delay effects, which you can use to enhance the sound of tones.

Reverb (REVERB)

Reverb simulates ambient spaces, such as a room or hall.

Chorus (CHORUS)

Chorus adds a rich, shimmering quality to a sound. This digital keyboard applies a preset chorus setting that is suitable for each tone.

Delay (DELAY)

Delay stores a sound and repeats it periodically with a slight delay before each repeat, which creates an echo effect. Delay is different from reverb, which creates a reverberation effect. This digital keyboard applies a preset delay setting that is suitable for each tone.

You can determine the current enabled/disabled status of each effect by checking the indicator marks on the right side of the display.

Preset chorus effect and delay effects are applied to each tone even when there is no indicator mark next to [CHORUS] and [DELAY].

You can adjust how tone effects are applied to each part. For details, see “Using the Mixer” (page EN-62). The setting items that are used for adjustment correspond to the following: Reverb Send, Chorus Send, Delay Send (see “Advanced Mixer Settings” on page EN-64).

To select a digital effect

Controlling Sounds

Using a Pedal

Connecting a pedal lets you perform pedal operations that add various effects during your performances. You can use a pedal to start and stop Auto Accompaniment and Song Bank (page EN-38) song play.

A pedal unit does not come with the Digital Keyboard. Purchase one separately from your retailer. See page EN-3 for information about options.

You can also use a pedal to switch the Digital Keyboard registration setup. For details, see “Using a Pedal to Cycle Through Multiple Setups (Registration Sequence)” (page EN-68).

Connecting a Pedal

Depending on the type of operation you want the pedal to perform, connect the pedal’s cable either to the Digital Keyboard’s fo PEDAL1 jack or fp PEDAL2/ EXPRESSION jack.

Pedal jacks

You can connect a CASIO sustain pedal (“Separately Available Accessories”, page EN-3) to the fo PEDAL1 jack. The fp PEDAL2/EXPRESSION jack can be used to connect a CASIO sustain pedal or a commercially available expression pedal.

If you use the fp PEDAL2/EXPRESSION jack to connect a commercially available expression pedal, you will need to specify the polarity type of the pedal and also calibrate the pedal before you use it.

To do this, perform the procedure under “To connect a pedal to the fp PEDAL2/EXPRESSION jack” (page

EN-30).

To connect a pedal to the fo PEDAL1 jack

1. Connect a pedal to the fo PEDAL1 jack.

2. Press bk FUNCTION.

3. Use the [1] (V) and [3] (W) bm number keys to display “Cntrller”, and then press [6] (ENTER).

4. Use the [1] (V) and [3] (W) keys to display

“Pedal”, and then press [6] (ENTER).

This displays “Pd1Efect”. This is the Pedal 1 function selection mode.

5. Use bn [–] and [+] or the bl dial to change the setting value.

For details about the function that is assigned by each setting value, refer to the “Pedal Function List” (page EN-31).

6.Turn pedal effects on or off for each keyboard part* as required.

(1) Use the [1] (V) and [3] (W) bm number keys to display “Pd1Enabl”.

(2) Press the [6] (ENTER) bm number key.

(3) Use the [1] (V) and [3] (W) keys to display the part whose setting you want to change.

(4) Use bn [–] and [+] to switch between on and off.

The pedal effect is applied to parts that are turned on, and not applied to parts that are turned off.

The Auto Harmonize (page EN-51) sound depends on the UPPER 1 part setting.

7.When the setting is the way you want, longpress the [4] (EXIT) bm number key to exit the setting screen.
