BeforeYouBegin
Location
To prevent damage to the instrument electronics, do not use or store it for extended periods where it may be exposed to:
■direct sunlight ■ extreme temperature or humidity
■sand or dust ■ excessive vibration
Power Supply
9 Only connect the instrument to electrical outlets match ing Üie specifications on the name plate at the rear of ttie unit.
Note: If necessary, add the appropriate step-up or stepdown transformer. Connecting to the wrong polarity or voltage can irreparably damage the instrument
9 To help prevent noise and poor sound quality, avoid con necting the instrument to the same electrical circuit as mo tors or large appliances.
9 For the same reasons, never overload the electrical circuit with too many extension cords.
9 Always start with the volume at a low level and gradu ally increase it-especially when the instrument is con nected to external equipment.
Interference
To minimize the risk of radio-frequency interference:
9 Keep the instrument away from fluorescent light fixtures and other sources of radio-frequency noise that may dis rupt operation of the instrument’s main microprocessor.
9 Never use the instrument in the immediate vicinity of a radio, television set, or similar equipment, as the equip ment may pick up radio-frequency noise from the micro processor.
9 If operation becomes erratic or unpredictable or the in strument fails to respond, reset the micro-processor by turning off the instrument, waiting a few seconds and then turning it on again.
Rear Connections
Only use jacks and connectors matching the corresponding connectors available at the rear of the instrument.
Handling
9 Never apply excessive force to keys, switches, terminals and other components.
9 Avoid dropping the instrument.
Treatment of the Stand
If you use the stand for long periods of time, the screws may become loose. For safety, retighten the screws if you notice significant shaking during use or if you move the stand to another place (see "Assembling the stand").
Cleaning
9 Wipe the exterior of the instrument with a clean, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt,
9 Never use harsh cleanser, organic solvents, or flammable polishes.
Foreign Objects
9 Do not place vases or beverage containers on the instru ment. Liquid spills may cause fire or electrical shock, as well as cause permanent damage to the instrument.
9 Care should be taken so that metal objects such as pins and coins do not fall into the enclosure through openings between keys.
if any of the above has occurred, turn off the power, un plug the power cord from the outlet and contact your dealer or a KORG service center.
Warranty
Have your warranty card validated at the place of purchase and keep it in a safe place until the warranty period expires.
Manual
This manual is your guide to using the instrument properly and effectively. Keep it in a safe place.
Six voices
The piano’s "AP Synthesis System" produces six realistic voices: concert piano, electric piano, harpsichord, vibes, organ, and strings.
Digital effects
Set the reverberation effects to simulate a large concert hall. Add modulation effects to obtain a wider sound.
Voice combinations
Use the LAYER mode to play two different voices at the same time.
Pedal effects
Damper, sostenuto, and soft pedals work in the same was as the corresponding pedals on an acoustic piano.
Only C-350: The damper pedal on the C-350 includes a reso nance feature that simulates the resonance effect of an acoustic damper pedal
Built-in metronome
Use the metronome to set both meter and tempo. Metronome volume is adjustable, and you can select a bell sound for the accented beat.
Recorder
Use the piano's built-in recorder to record and play back your performances.
Touch control
The piano offers three levels of keyboard response. Select the level by pressing the appropriate TOUCH key combination.
Premodem temperaments
in addition to the modem Equal temperament (tuning), your piano also offers the premodem Kimberger and Werckmeister temperaments. Select either of these temperaments to accurately reproduce the sound of a premodem keyboard instrument.
Transposition and tuning
Use the transposition function to transpose any key into any other. Use the tuning function to make fine adjustments in pitch.
MIDI
Your piano comes equipped with the industry-standard "Musi cal instmment Digital Interface." You can use MIDI to connect your piano to computers and other electronic instruments. Your piano can drive and be driven by external devices. The piano’s "MIDI Muitivoice function" allows external input to drive up to four of the piano’s voices at the same time.
TheBackupBattery
Your piano’s backup battery enables the memory to retain re corder data and various settings even while the piano's power is off. If the [TRANSPOSE/FUNCTION] lamp begins blinking when you switch on the piano, it is time to change the battery. For instructions, refer to your nearest service center or dealer.
To switch the lamp off, press the [TRANSPOSE/FUNCTION] switch.

Selecting Voice Modes |
|
|
The piano offers two voice modes: SINGLE |

SINGLE This, the normal performance mode, uses one sound over the entire range of the keyboard.
LAYER This mode simultaneously uses two voices over the entire range of the keyboard.
Note: The LED indicators in the switches light to indicate which voice or voices are currently in use.
SINGLE
BPress a [VOICE SELECTOR] and every note across the range of the keyboard will sound the selected voice (for example, PIANO).
Hold down one [VOICE SELECTOR] and press another and every note over the range of the key board will sound both selected voices (for ex ample, PIANO and STRINGS).
Since the LAYER mode uses two voices , a maxi mum of 16 notes (or 10, if the PIANO voice is se lected), instead of the normal 32, can be played at a given time.

|
|
DEPTH1 |
produces a light chorus effect. |
|
DEPTH2 |
produces a moderate chorus effect. |
|
DEPTHS |
produces a deep chorus effect. |
|
You can check the current setting by |
holding down |
|
the |
[CHORUS] switch. The selector lamp corre |
|
sponding to the current chorus setting |
(the lamp on |
|
the |
[PIANO], [E. PIANO] or [HARPSI] switch) lights |
|
up while the switch is held down. |
|
To turn the chorus effect off, press the [CHORUS] switch so that the lamp on the switch goes off.
Note: You can set BRILLIANCE, REVERB, and CHORUS effects separately for each voice. The .piano memo rizes the settings, and automatically restores them each time you select the voice.
Note: The piano retains all of these settings (the brilliance setting, the reverb and chorus ON/OFF settings, and the reverb and chorus depth settings) for each voice even while power is off.
4. Using Pedals
4. Using Pedals
The left pedal on the C-150 can function as either a soft pedal or a sostenuto pedal.
This pedal simulates the effect of a damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the pedal is depressed on an
acoustic |
piano, |
small |
felts, |
called |
dampers, |
are |
lifted |
|||
from the strings. This allows all |
strings |
to |
vibrate, |
|||||||
whether |
the key for |
those |
strings |
has |
been |
struck |
or |
|||
not. When the pedal is |
released, strings |
vibrating |
||||||||
without keys depressed are damped. |

|
|
If the Surround parameter is set to |
"Off", |
pressing |
the |
|||||||
damper |
pedal |
produces an |
effect |
that |
simulates |
the |
||||
sound |
of an |
acoustic |
piano's resonating |
strings, |
when |
|||||
the PIANO voice is selected. |

This pedal simulates the effect of a |
soft |
pedal |
on |
an |
|
acoustic |
piano. When the pedal is |
depressed |
on |
an |
|
acoustic |
piano, the sound produced |
is |
softer, |
as |
the |
hammers strike one fewer string per key, |
|
|
|
|
This |
pedal |
simulates the |
effect |
of a sostenuto |
pedal |
||||
on |
an |
acoustic |
piano. When this pedal is |
depressed |
|||||
on |
an |
acoustic |
piano, |
dampers |
for |
keys |
depressed |
||
when the |
pedal |
is depressed are suspended above the |
|||||||
strings |
until the |
pedal is released. This allows certain |
|||||||
strings |
to |
vibrate |
freely |
while other |
strings |
are |
struck |
and damped by depressing and releasing keys.
