Introduction
Assembly Instructions
In addition to the main piano cabinet, your instrument comes with a stand requiring assembly, using the parts shown
below. Two people may be needed to complete the assembly, as the stand must first rest on the floor and then the
instrument must be securely attached on top of it.
⑧
⑨
⑥
⑦
⑨
Step 1:
Place the stand parts on a carpeted floor or blanket.
Use the four long bolts to attach the pedal unit to the
side panels.
Use the four shorter screws to attach the back panel
to brackets, as shown below.
Step 2:
Move the stand into an upright position and then place
the instrument upon it. To avoid possible damage, don’t
let the weight of the body rest on the stand until it is
properly aligned and secured with the six screws as
shown. Rotate the pedal adjuster until it comes in firm
contact with the floor surface. If the adjuster is not in firm
contact with the floor, the pedal will wobble and cause
malfunctions.
page 2
Page 9
Introduction
Step 3:
Insert the pedal cable connector into the pedal jack
located on the bottom of the keyboard.
Be sure that the connector is inserted in the correct
orientation. Make sure that the cable clamp fastens to
the pedal cable.
Power Connection
A DC power adapter supplies the CUP310’s power. Connect the power adapter to the DC receptacle on the rear panel
of the CUP310. Then connect the power cord to an AC outlet.
CAUTION: Use only the DC power adapter supplied with the CUP310 / 320.
Connecting the wrong DC power adapter could damage the instrument.
If the power adapter is damaged or lost, contact your Kurzweil dealer to order a replacement.
The AC plug shape will vary
depending on location of use
The AC plug shape will vary depending on location of use. After the CUP310 is set up, turn the power on.
While the unit is performing its power-up routine some of the front panel buttons will flash. After a couple of seconds,
the LCD screen will display the first Piano Program. The CUP310 is now ready to play. Use the Quick Start instructions on the
following pages for the basic steps to change Programs or play one of the Demo Songs.

Introduction
MP3 - Aux In
Connects an external audio source to the CUP310
sound system.
Volume
Before turning on the CUP310, it’s always a good idea to
set the volume at its minimum setting (all the way to the
left). For a generally comfortable level of volume while
playing, set the knob at its middle position.
The Volume Control is located on the right end of the
keyboard. Turn this knob from left to right (clock- wise) to
increase the volume. This adjusts the CUP310 speaker
and headphone audio volume. The Volume control does
not affect the volume of the sound coming from external
sources through the Audio In jacks on the rear panel.
Quick Start
Playing the Programs:
1. Turn on the power.
2. The Piano CATEGORY button LED is lit and the first Program (Piano) is ready to play.
3. There are a number of different Programs available. Press a CATEGORY button, then press the LEFT
or RIGHT navigation button to step through the available Programs in the selected category.
Playing a Demo Song:
1. Press the RECORD and PLAY/PAUSE buttons simultaneously to enter Demo Mode
2. The first demo song immediately plays.
When the current demo song finishes, the next song begins playing.
3. Press the LEFT or RIGHT navigation button to select the previous or next song.
4. You can also press PLAY/PAUSE and STOP buttons to start and stop the current demo.
5. To exit Demo Mode, press the EXIT button.
Headphone Jacks
The CUP310 has two 1/4” stereo headphone jacks
located below the keyboard on the left end of the
cabinet.
Plugging in headphones provides privacy during
practice. Each jack operates the same so multiple
people can play and hear the music together. When
headphones are connected the CUP310’s speakers are
silent.
page 4
Page 11
Overview
Input/Output Panel
The Input/Output panel is located on the rear of the instrument cabinet.
Audio In and Audio Out:
Audio Out (RCA jacks) may be used to connect the CUP310 to external audio equipment, such as an outboard mixer,
powered speakers, or recording device. Audio In jacks are used to connect the CUP310’s internal speakers to other
devices such as a digital audio player or CD player. Always turn off the CUP310’s power before plugging or unplugging
cables into the Audio In jacks. The CUP310’s Volume Control does not affect the volume of the sound coming from the
Audio In jacks. Therefore it is best to use a device that has its own output level control and to use that to adjust the sound
volume from the external device.
MIDI In and Out ports:
Use the MIDI In and Out ports to connect the CUP310 to other MIDI devices to receive and send MIDI data.
CC Pedal (Volume/Expression Pedal):
This jack is used to connect a continuous controller pedal for volume and expression control.
The CUP310 requires a pedal with a TRS 1/4” connector and 10k linear potentiometer. Most manufacturers EXCEPT
Yamaha and Korg make pedals with the same specifications and should work. Yamaha and Korg pedals typically use
an exponential potentiometer and therefore will not work correctly. The CC-1 pedal is available from Kurzweil.
You can order the CC-1 through your local Kurzweil dealer.
USB:
Connect a USB cable to this port to send and receive MIDI or to connect to a computer to apply system updates.

Correcting Mistakes (Punch-in Recording)
You can fix mistakes in your performance by doing “punch-in” recording. Punch-in recording allows you to re-record
a section in the middle of a song. This is useful for correcting mistakes without recording the whole song again.
Follow these steps to perform a “punch-in”:
1. Select a previously recorded song and press the PLAY/PAUSE button to begin playing.
2. When the song reaches the part you need to correct, press the RECORD button and play the corrected notes.
3. After playing the corrected notes, press the STOP button to stop recording. The start and end sections of the
song will remain unchanged. If you don’t press the STOP button after you punch-In, you will erase the remaining
portion of the song. Changes to the song are saved automatically.
Tempo, Rec.Rthm, and Rhythm Vol
The Tempo, Rec.Rthm, and Rhythm Vol parameters can be adjusted for each song. After selecting a song,
use the UP and DOWN navigation buttons to select the desired Tempo, Rec.Rthm, or Rhythm Vol parameter,
then use the LEFT and RIGHT navigation buttons to change the settings of the selected parameter.
● The Tempo parameter adjusts the tempo of the current song in beats per minute (BPM).
● The Rec.Rthm parameter controls whether a Rhythm Pattern plays during recording.
If you record a song and want the Rhythm Pattern recorded as well, be sure to change this parameter to On.
● The “Rhythm Vol” parameter controls the volume of the Rhythm Pattern.
The volume range is from 0 (minimum) to 10 (maximum). The default volume setting is 5.
This setting is not saved per song, but instead applies to all songs.

AutoPwr (Auto Power Off)
“Auto Power Off” is an energy-saving feature that will automatically shut off power to the unit after a period of inactivity.
Five minutes before the instrument is automatically powered off, a warning will be shown which displays the time remaining
before power off. Pressing any button or key will reset the timer, and the instrument will not be powered off until it has been
inactive for the selected amount of time again. After the instrument is automatically powered off, simply pressing the power
button will power up the unit once again. This allows you to reduce overall power consumption, and also extends the lifetime
of the instrument.
The AutoPower parameter determines how long the instrument must be inactive before automatically powering off.
You can adjust the AutoPower parameter to the following settings: Off, 15 min, 30 min, 1 hour, 2 hours or 4 hours.
The selected AutoPower setting is remembered across power cycles. The default setting is 4 hours.

MIDI
About MIDI
MIDI is the acronym for Musical Instrument Digital Interface. It is the industry standard protocol which allows the
exchange of musical data between electronic musical instruments, devices (such as a sequencer), and computers.
MIDI enables MIDI-equipped devices designed by different manufacturers to communicate MIDI data to each other.
MIDI data is sent or received using standard MIDI cables to connect to other MIDI devices or a USB cable to
connect to a computer. The CUP310 is equipped with conventional MIDI In and Out ports, and a USB port.
The CUP310 has a standard class-compliant USB-MIDI implementation. It does not require the installation of any
additional drivers.
MIDI Channels
MIDI protocol transmits multiple channels of MIDI performance data.
Typical MIDI instruments can play up to 16 channels at the same time. Each channel can be assigned its own Program.
When using the CUP310 to play an external MIDI device, the CUP310 sends notes played on the keyboard to the
MIDI and USB out ports on Channel 1 (or channels 1 and 2 when using a split/layered sound).
When using an external MIDI device to play the CUP310, the CUP310 can receive notes on channels 1-16.
The program on each channel can be selected by sending a MIDI Program Change message to each of the desired
CUP310 MIDI channels.
Note: The CUP310 is not compatible with Program Change values used by “General MIDI” songs. In order for the
CUP310 to properly play “General MIDI” songs, Program Change values in these songs may need to be edited to
correspond to the correct instrument sounds on the CUP310.
MIDI In and Out Ports
The CUP310 is equipped with the conventional MIDI In and Out ports. The MIDI In port is used to receive MIDI data
from another MIDI device; the MIDI Out port is used to transmit the MIDI data generated by the CUP310 to another
MIDI device; the MIDI Thru port passes MIDI In data along to an external device.
When you connect the MIDI Out of the CUP310 to the MIDI In of another instrument, you can play the sounds of both
instruments simultaneously from the CUP310’s keyboard. When you connect the MIDI In of the CUP310 to the MIDI
Out of another controller, you can control the CUP310 using the other controller.

USB MIDI Connection
In addition to the conventional MIDI In and Out ports, the CUP310 also has a USB port on the panel on the back of
the piano. You can connect the CUP310 directly to a computer with a USB cable. This connection transmits and
receives MIDI data between the CUP310 and the computer.
The CUP310 supports the “Plug and Play” feature used in the Windows XP or higher and Macintosh operating
systems. No drivers are required to use this connection; but you may need to enable MIDI on your computer’s sound
and audio control panel.
To use the CUP310 as a MIDI controller with a computer, use any Type-A to Type-B USB cable.
If you have a sequencer program installed on your computer, you can use this USB connection to record and play
MIDI sequences.
