IMPORTANT
Check your power supply
Make sure that your local AC mains voltage
matches the voltage specified on the name
plate on the bottom panel. In some areas a
voltage selector may be provided on the rear
of the main unit near the power cord. Make
sure that the voltage selector is set for the
voltage in your area. The voltage selector is
set at 240V when the unit is initially shipped.
To change the setting use a "minus"
screwdriver to rotate the selector dial so that
the correct voltage appears next to the
pointer on the panel.
WICHTIG
Überprüfung der Stromversorgung
Vergewissern Sie sich vor dem Anschließen an
das Stromnetz, daß die örtliche Netzspannung
den Betriebsspannungswerten auf dem
Typenschild an der Unterseite des Instruments
entspricht. In bestimmten Regionen ist auf der
Rückseite des Instruments in der Nähe des
Netzkabels ein Spannungswähler angebracht.
Falls vorhanden, muß der Spannungswähler
auf die örtliche Netzspannung eingestellt
werden. Der Spannungswähler wurde
werkseitig auf 240 V voreingestellt. Zum
Verstellen drehen Sie den Spannungsregler
mit einem Schlitzschraubendreher, bis der
Zeiger auf den korrekten Spannungswert
weist.
IMPORTANT
Contrôler la source d'alimentation
Vérifiez que la tension spécifiée sur le
panneau inférieur correspond à la tension du
secteur. Dans certaines régions, l’instrument
peut être équipé d’un sélecteur de tension à
l’arrière de l’unité principale, à côté du cordon
d'alimentation.
Vérifiez que ce sélecteur est bien réglé en
fonction de la tension secteur de votre région.
Le sélecteur de tension est réglé sur 240 V au
départ d'usine. Pour modifier ce réglage,
utilisez un tournevis à lame plate pour tourner
le sélecteur afin de mettre l'indication
correspondant à la tension de votre région vis
à vis du repère triangulaire situé sur le
panneau.
IMPORTANTE
Verifique la alimentación de corriente
Asegúrese de que tensión de alimentación de
CA de su área corresponde con la tensión
especificada en la placa de características del
panel inferior. Es posible que en algunas
zonas se suministre un selector de tensión en
la parte posterior de la unidad principal, junto
al cable de alimentación.
Asegúrese de que el selector de tensión esté
ajustado a la tensión de su área. El selector
de tensión se ajusta a 240V cuando la unidad
sale de fábrica. Para cambiar el ajuste,
emplee un destornillador de cabeza "recta"
para girar el selector de modo que aparezca
la tensión correcta al lado del indicador del
panel.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from
electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited
to, the following:
• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required
voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which
may have accumulated on it.
• Use only the supplied power cord/plug.
• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or
radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord,
place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk
on, trip over, or roll anything over it.
• Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or
modify them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable
parts. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use
immediately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
• Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet
conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill
into any openings.
• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
• Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit.
A burning item may fall over and cause a fire.
• If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a
sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual
smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the
power switch, disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the

• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off
the power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all
components, set all volume levels to minimum. Also, be sure to set the
volumes of all components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the
volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening
level.
• Gently remove dust and dirt with a soft cloth. Do not wipe too hard since
small particles of dirt can scratch the instrument's finish.
• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Do
not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated
wiping cloths.
•Take care that the key cover does not pinch your fingers, and do not insert
a finger or hand in any gaps on the key cover or instrument.
• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the
key cover, panel or keyboard. If this happens, turn off the power
immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the
instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this
might discolor the panel or keyboard.
• Bumping the surface of the instrument with metal, porcelain, or other hard
objects can cause the finish to crack or peel. Use caution.
• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and
do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
• Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high or
uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss.
If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a
physician.
• Do not place the bench in an unstable position where it might accidentally
fall over.
• Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench. Using it as a tool or
step-ladder or for any other purpose might result in accident or injury.
• Only one person should sit on the bench at a time, in order to prevent the
possibility of accident or injury.
• If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten
them periodically using the included tool.
Saving and backing up your data
●
Depending upon the Backup Settings (page 50), internal data is
retained for about 1 week after the power is turned off. If the
period is exceeded, the data will be lost. Be sure to turn the
power switch on for a few minutes at least once a week. The
data could be lost due to malfunction or incorrect operation.
Save important data to external media such as the Yamaha
MDF3 MIDI data filer.
Backing up the external media
●
To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that you save your important data onto two external
media.

Features
The Yamaha Clavinova CLP-F01 digital piano offers unmatched sonic realism and natural grand-piano type playability as
well as Yamaha’s original “AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling” tone-generation technology for rich, musical voices, and a
newly wooden keyboard that provides graded key weight and response throughout the keyboard range.
The Grand Piano 1, 2 and 3 voices feature totally samples painstakingly recorded from a full concert grand piano. The
Grand Piano 1 and 3 voices feature three velocity-switched samples (Dynamic Sampling), special “Sustain Sampling”
(page 88) that samples the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano’s soundboard and strings when the damper pedal
is pressed, and “Keyoff Samples” that add the subtle sound produced when the keys are released. The CLP-F01 comes
much closer to the sound of a true acoustic piano.

CLP-F01 Selecting & Playing Voices
ENGLISH

Selecting & Playing Voices
Selecting Voices
Select the desired voice by pressing one of the [VOICE] buttons.
Then, when you start playing, re-adjust the [MASTER VOLUME] control for the most
comfortable listening level.
Using the Pedals
The Clavinova has three foot pedals that produce a range
of expressive effects similar to those produced by the
pedals on an acoustic piano.
Damper (Right) Pedal
The damper pedal functions in the same way as a
damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the damper
pedal is pressed, notes sustain longer. Releasing the pedal
immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes.
When you select the
GRAND PIANO 1 or 3 voice on the
CLP-F01, pressing the damper pedal activates the instrument’s special “Sustain Samples” to accurately recreate
the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano’s
soundboard and strings.

Procedure
TIP
To learn characteristics of the
voices, listen to demo songs for
each voice (page 18). Refer to
“Preset Voice List” on page 62
for more information on the
characteristics of each preset
voice.
TERMINOLOGY
Voice:
On the Clavinova, a voice
means a “tone” or “tonal color.”
TIP
You can control the loudness of
a voice by adjusting the force
with which you strike the keys,
although different playing styles
(touch sensitivities) have little or
no effect with certain musical
instruments.
Refer to “Preset Voice List” on
page 62.
TIP
The depth of the effect produced by the “Sustain Samples”
can be adjusted via the “Pedal
Functions” (page 46) in Function mode.
When you press the damper
pedal here, the notes you
play before you release the
pedal have a longer sustain.
CLP-F01 Selecting & Playing Voices
ENGLISH
24
Sostenuto (Center) Pedal
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the
sostenuto pedal while the note(s) are held, those notes
will sustain as long as you hold the pedal (as if the
damper pedal had been pressed) but all subsequently
played notes will not be sustained. This makes it possible
to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes are
played “staccato.”
Soft (Left) Pedal
The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played while
the pedal is pressed. The soft pedal will not affect notes that are already playing when it
is pressed.
Adding Variations to the Sound – [VARIATION]/
[BRILLIANCE]/[REVERB]/[EFFECT]
[VARIATION]
Lets you alter another aspect of the effect, depending on the selected type.
Refer to “Preset Voice List” on page 62 for more information on the characteristics of
each variation.
Pressing the [VARIATION] or selected voice button toggles the variation on and off.
The indicator lights (ON) each time the [VARIATION] button is pressed.
[BRILLIANCE]
This control can be used to change the tonality or “timbre” of the sound output.
The control range is from MELLOW to BRIGHT.
[REVERB]
This control enables you to select various digital reverb effects that would add extra
depth and expression to the sound to create a realistic acoustic ambience.
OFF: When no reverb effect is selected, no REVERB indicator is lit.
ROOM: This setting adds a continuous reverb effect to the sound, similar to the
acoustic reverberation you would hear in a room.
HALL 1: For a “bigger” reverb sound, use the HALL 1 setting. This effect simulates
the natural reverberation of a small-size concert hall.
HALL 2: For a truly spacious reverb sound, use the HALL 2 setting. This effect simu-
lates the natural reverberation of a large concert hall.
STAGE: Simulates the reverb of a stage environment.
TIP
Organ, string and choir voices
will continue to sound for as
long as the sostenuto pedal is
depressed.
When you press the sostenuto pedal here while holding
the note, the note will sustain
as long as you hold the pedal.
TIP
The left pedal can be assigned
to song start/stop operation or
variation function via the “Left
Pedal Mode” described on
page 46.
