Memory Contents

Even when the keyboard is turned off, user song data saved as Song Bank tunes are retained as long as power is being supplied to the keyboard. Unplugging the AC adaptor when batteries are not loaded or when batteries are dead cuts off the power supply. This causes all keyboard settings to be initialized to the initial factory defaults, and clears all data stored in memory.

Phones/Output Jack

PREPARATION

• Before connecting headphones or other external equipment, be sure to first turn down the volume settings of the keyboard and the connected equipment. You can then adjust volume to the desired level after connections are complete.

To select a tone

Find the tone you want to use in the TONE List and note its tone number.

• Not all of the available tones are shown on the tone list printed on the keyboard console. For a complete list, see the “Tone List” on page A-1.

Press the TONE button.

Number buttonsKEY LIGHT

Use the number buttons to input the three-digit tone number of the tone you want to select.

Example: To select “049 ACOUSTIC BASS”, input 0, 4

and then 9.

Aco . Bsas

NOTE

• Always input all three digits for the tone number, including leading zeros (if any). If you input one or two digits and stop, the display will automatically clear your input after a few seconds.

• You can also increment the displayed tone number by pressing [+] and decrement it by pressing [–].

• When one of the drum sets is selected (tone numbers 256 through 263), each keyboard key is assigned a different percussion sound. See page A-4 for details.

Polyphony

The term polyphony refers to the maximum number of notes you can play at the same time. The keyboard has 32-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 autoaccompaniment 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 16-note polyphony.

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

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. Accompaniment (left-hand part) waits until you press a key before proceeding to the next phrase.

Step 2 – Master the notes.

In this step, you use the display to learn which fingers you should use and how loud or soft to play, and the key light system to learn which keyboard keys to press. Accompaniment (left-hand part) waits until your play the correct note, so you can learn at your own pace.

Key Lighting System Operation and Display Contents During 3-step Lesson Play

Whenever you select an Auto Accompaniment tune for 3-step lesson play, the key lighting system shows you which keys to press, while the display shows you the notes and their fingerings.

Note Pitch

The keyboard key that should be pressed lights, 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

Keyboard keys stay lit for as long as the note should be played. The staff notation and fingerings also remain on the display for the length of the note.

Next Note

The keyboard key for the next note to be played flashes, while a number appears on the display near the finger you should use to play the next note.

Series of Same Pitch Notes

The keyboard key light 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.

Step 3 – Play at normal speed.

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

The following procedure describes how to use synchro start. Before starting, you should first select the rhythm you want to use, set the tempo, and use the POWER/MODE switch to select the chord play method you want to use (NORMAL, CASIO CHORD, FINGERED).

To use synchro start

Finishing with an Ending Pattern

You can end your performances with an ending pattern that brings the rhythm pattern you are using to a natural-sounding conclusion. The following procedure describes how to insert an ending pattern. Note that the actual ending pattern played depends on the rhythm pattern you are using.

To finish with an ending pattern

While the rhythm is playing, press the SYNCHRO/ ENDING button.

• This causes the ending pattern to play, which brings rhythm accompaniment to an end.

NOTE

• The timing when the ending pattern starts depends on when you press the SYNCHRO/ENDING button. If you press the button before the second beat of the current measure, the ending pattern starts playing immediately. Pressing the button at any point in the measure after the second beat results in the ending pattern playing from the beginning of the following measure.

Press the SYNCHRO/ENDING button to put the keyboard into synchro start standby.

Flash

Playing a chord and the rhythm pattern starts to play automatically.

NOTE

• If the POWER/MODE switch is set to NORMAL, only the rhythm plays (without a chord) when you play on the accompaniment keyboard.

• If you press the INTRO button before playing anything on the keyboard, the rhythm starts automatically with an intro pattern when you play something on the accompaniment keyboard.

• Pressing the VARIATION/FILL-IN button before playing anything on the keyboard causes play to start with the variation pattern when something is played on the keyboard.

• To cancel synchro start standby, press the SYNCHRO/ ENDING button one more time.

Perform either of the two following operations.

• Without deleting the original (fragmented) data, perform a “save as” operation to save the data under a different name. Next, try performing the operation using the newly saved data.

• If you saved the data to the card from another location, format the card (which will delete its contents), and then save the data to the card again. Next, try performing the operation using the newly saved data.

Press the RHYTHM button to enter the rhythm mode, which is indicated by the rhythm indicator on the display.

Stop playback, disconnect the USB cable from and then reconnect it to the keyboard’s USB port, and then try playing back the tune again. If this does not correct the problem, exit the MIDI software you are using, and then disconnect the USB cable from and then reconnect it to the keyboard’s USB port. Next, restart your MIDI software and try playback again.
