Features
Highly evolved touch and expression: Graded Hammer 3 (GH3) keyboard (CLP-330)
and Graded Hammer 3 (GH3) keyboard with artificial ivory top (CLP-340, CLP-S306)
The Graded Hammer keyboard features natural grand-piano type key weights (heavier in the low range and lighter in
the higher range) providing a pleasant playability that is unmatched by conventional electronic pianos.
The Graded Hammer keyboard also offers superb playability for legato (without pedal operation) and repetitivestriking techniques, as with a grand piano. The CLP-340 and CLP-S306 feature an “artificial ivory” keyboard top,
which simulates the moderate hygroscopic characteristics of real ivory and offers a less slippery surface, smooth key
movement, and a warm and inviting color.
Ultimate natural playability: Natural Wood (NW) keyboard with artificial ivory top
(CLP-370, CLP-S308)
In addition to the features offered by the GH3 keyboard with artificial ivory top model, the NW keyboard uses natural
wood for the inside of the white keys, as seen on an acoustic piano. This feature provides a heavier weighted touch
that surpasses that of conventional electronic pianos and is closer in feel to a grand piano.
Digital recording of a full-size concert grand piano sound (via AMW Dynamics
Stereo Sampling)
ENGLISH
This digital piano offers a rich and versatile range of sounds, which are created using Yamaha's proprietary sampling
tone-generation system, “AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling.”
AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) is a sampling system that creates sounds close to those of an acoustic instrument by
digitally recording the sounds of an instrument and applying high-quality digital filtering technology to the recorded
audio samples.
The sound waveform created by an acoustic piano differs depending on the player's strength of touch, from
pianissimo to fortissimo.
AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling can create extremely dynamic nuances by recording samples at various playing
strengths. The greater the number of samples used, the greater the resulting expressiveness of the instrument.
The piano voice “Grand Piano 1” features a totally new sample recorded from a full-size concert grand piano. Each
note in the sample has been adjusted meticulously so that the digital piano will play only the very best piano sounds.
The piano voices are well-separated sounds featuring a fast attack and a satisfying response.
The “Grand Piano 1” voice features multiple wave samples for different velocities (Dynamic Sampling). That is,
different samples are used depending on how fast or strong the player strikes the keys. Therefore, this voice
expresses detailed dynamics and sounds much closer to those of a true acoustic piano.
The CLP-370/340 creates a rich, luxurious sound using “Sustain Sampling,” which is a sample of the soundboard
and the resonance of the strings when the damper pedal is pressed. The instrument also features “Key-off Sampling,”
which is a sample of the very delicate noises that are caused when keys are released.
Internet Direct Connection function (CLP-370/340, CLP-S308/S306)
You can connect these digital piano models to the Internet, enabling you to access and enjoy a broad range of song
data files that are available on a dedicated website.

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.
The damper pedal also features a naturally expressive
half-pedal function.
When DAMPER RES. is on, the Clavinova simulates the
sustain sound that occurs when you press the damper
pedal of a grand piano, as you press the damper pedal
and play the keyboard.
When you press the damper
pedal here, the notes you
play before you release the
pedal have a longer sustain.
Selecting & Playing Voices
NOTE
If the damper pedal doesn’t work,
make sure that the pedal cord is
properly plugged into the jack
(pages 83, 86).
TERMINOLOGY:
Half-pedal:
While playing the piano with Sustain and you want to slightly mute
the sustained sound, release the
damper pedal from maximum
position to half position.
NOTE
The depth of the effect produced
by the “Sustain Samples” can be
adjusted via the “Sustain Sample
Depth” (page 66) in Function
mode.
ENGLISH
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.
When you press the sostenuto pedal here while holding the note, the note will
sustain as long as you hold
the pedal.
NOTE
Organ, string and choir voices will
continue to sound for as long as
the sostenuto pedal is depressed.
NOTE
The left pedal can be assigned to
song play/pause operation or
variation function (CLP-370/340)

Recording Your Performance
Recording Your Performance
The ability to record and play back what you’ve played on the instrument can be an effective practice aid. You can, for example, record just
the left-hand part, and then practice the right-hand part while playing
back the recorded left-hand part. Or, since you can record up to two
parts separately, you could record the left-and right-hand parts separately, or record both parts of a duet and hear how they sound when
played back. The two-part Song Recorder on the instrument allows the
recording of up to three User songs (U01 – U03) to the instrument.
User songs can be saved to an optional USB storage device.
ENGLISH
Recording a performance quickly
This convenient and simple recording method lets you quickly record your performance without
specifying the recording parts — useful, for example, in recording solo piano pieces.
In this way, the performance is automatically recorded to right part.
2 4 43
CAUTION
To avoid erasing previously recorded song(s):
If the song contains data, the part indicator lights up green when you select a song.
Note that recording new data on this part will erase the existing data.
You cannot record the performance to the connected USB storage device directly. The
recorded songs are saved to the instrument automatically. If you want to save data to
the device, perform the Save operation (page 37) after stopping recording.
TERMINOLOGY
Recording vs. Saving:
The format of performance data recorded on a cassette tape differs from that of data recorded on the
Clavinova. A cassette tape records audio signals. The Clavinova “saves” information regarding note
timing, voices, and a tempo value, but not audio signals. When you play back recorded songs, the
Clavinova produces sound based on the saved information. Therefore, recording on the Clavinova
may be more accurately called “saving information.” However, this book often uses the word “recording” because it seems to make more sense.

Handling the Floppy Disk Drive (FDD) and Floppy
Disks
An optional floppy disk drive can be connected to the
USB jack. (CLP-370/340) For instructions on installing
a Yamaha UD-FD01 floppy disk drive, see page 91.
The floppy disk drive lets you save original data you’ve
created on the instrument to floppy disk, and allows you
to load data from floppy disk to the instrument.
Be sure to handle floppy disks and treat the disk drive
with care. Follow the important precautions below.
Floppy Disk Compatibility
• 3.5” 2DD and 2HD type floppy disks can be used.
ENGLISH
Inserting/Removing Floppy Disks
Inserting a Floppy Disk into the Disk Drive:
Hold the disk so that the label of the disk is facing upward
and the sliding shutter is facing forward, towards the disk
slot. Carefully insert the disk into the slot, slowly pushing
it all the way in until it clicks into place and the eject button pops out.
Never insert anything but floppy disks into the disk drive. Other
objects may cause damage to the disk drive or floppy disks.
Removing a Floppy Disk
•After checking that the instrument is not accessing*
* Access of the disk indicates an active operation, such as
recording, playback, or deletion of data.
If a floppy disk is inserted while the power is on, the disk is
automatically accessed, since the instrument checks
whether the disk has data.
Do not remove the floppy disk or turn off the instrument
itself while the disk is being accessed.
Doing so may result not only in loss of data on the disk
but also damage to the floppy disk drive.
•Be sure to remove the floppy disk from the disk drive
NOTE
the floppy disk (checking that the use lamp on the
floppy disk drive is off), firmly press the eject button at
the upper right of the disk slot all the way in.
When the floppy disk is ejected, pull it out of the drive.
If the floppy disk cannot be removed because it is
stuck, do not try to force it, but instead try pressing the
eject button again, or try re-inserting the disk and
attempt to eject it again.
CAUTION
before turning off the power. A floppy disk left in the
drive for extended periods can easily pick up dust and
dirt that can cause data-read and -write errors.
Cleaning the Disk Drive Read/
Write Head
•Clean the read/write head regularly. This instrument
employs a precision magnetic read/write head which,
after an extended period of use, will pick up a layer of
magnetic particles from the disks used that will eventually cause read and write errors.
•To maintain the disk drive in optimum working order
Yamaha recommends that you use a commerciallyavailable dry-type head cleaning disk to clean the head
about once a month. Ask your Yamaha dealer about
the availability of proper head cleaning disks.
About Floppy Disks
Handle floppy disks with care, and follow these
precautions:
•Do not place heavy objects on a disk or bend or apply
pressure to the disk in any way. Always keep floppy
disks in their protective cases when they are not in use.
•Do not expose the disk to direct sunlight, extremely
high or low temperatures, or excessive humidity, dust
or liquids.
•Do not open the sliding shutter and touch the exposed
surface of the floppy disk inside.
•Do not expose the disk to magnetic fields, such as
those produced by televisions, speakers, motors, etc.,
since magnetic fields can partially or completely erase
data on the disk, rendering it unreadable.
• Never use a floppy disk with a deformed shutter or
housing.
•Do not attach anything other than the provided labels
to a floppy disk. Also make sure that labels are attached
in the proper location.
To Protect Your Data (Write-protect Tab):
•To prevent accidental erasure of important data, slide
the disk’s write-protect tab to the “protect” position
(tab open). When saving data, make sure that the disk’s
write-protect tab is set to the “overwrite” position (tab
closed).

Sequence formats that can be played
• SMF (Standard MIDI File) Formats 0 and 1
The SMF format is one of the most common and widely compatible sequence formats used for storing sequence data. There are two variations: Format 0 and Format
1. A large number of MIDI devices are compatible with SMF Format 0, and most
commercially available MIDI sequence data is provided in SMF Format 0. The SMF
format for sequence files allows you to exchange song data between different
sequencers. User songs recorded in this instrument are saved as SMF Format 0.
• ESEQ
This sequence format is compatible with many of Yamaha’s MIDI devices, including
the Clavinova series instruments. This is a common format used with various
Yamaha software.
Among ESEQ files, Disklavier Piano Soft songs can be played back on this instrument.
NOTE
When playing back songs containing various voices or parts
(such as XG or GM songs), the
voices may not sound correct or
as intended on the original. You
may be able to remedy this and
make the playback sound more
natural or appropriate by changing the Song Channel Selection
setting (page 66) to “1&2,” so that
only channels 1 and 2 will play
back.
NOTE
If the song cannot be selected or
loaded, you may need to change
the Character Code setting (page
70).
NOTE
Song data is not transmitted via
the MIDI connections. However,
channels 3 – 16 of Disklavier
Piano Soft songs and non-protected External songs will be
transmitted via the MIDI connections when the Song Channel
Selection is set to “1&2” (page
66).
NOTE
For the USB storage device,
folder directories on this instrument can be recognized up to
two levels. However, the level is
not displayed and song numbers
001 – 999 are displayed whichever level the song contains.
NOTE
If the metronome is being used
during playback, the metronome
will automatically stop when playback is stopped.
NOTE
If the REVERB type is changed
via the panel controls during playback, both the playback and keyboard reverb effects will be
changed.
NOTE
If the EFFECT type is changed via
the panel controls during playback, the playback effect may be
switched off in some cases.

F2. Selecting a Scale
You can select various scales.
Equal Temperament is the most common
contemporary piano tuning scale. However,
history has known numerous other scales,
many of which serve as the basis for certain
genres of music. You can experience these
tunings with
the Clavinova.
Equal Temperament
One octave is divided into twelve equal intervals.
Currently the most popular piano tuning scale.
Pure Major/Pure Minor
Based on natural overtones, three major chords using
these scales produce a beautiful, pure sound.
Pythagorean
This scale, designed by Pythagoras, a Greek philosopher,
is based on the interval of a perfect 5th.
The 3rd produces swells, but the 4th and 5th are beautiful and suitable for some leads.
Mean Tone
This scale is an improvement of the Pythagorean in that
the swell of the 3rd has been eliminated. The scale
became popular during the late 16th century through the
late 18th century, and was used by Handel.

These scales combine Mean Tone and Pythagorean in
different ways. With these scales, modulation changes the
impression and feel of the songs. They were often used in
the era of Bach and Beethoven. They are often used today
to reproduce the music of that era on harpsichords.

MIDI Transmit Channel Selection
ENGLISH
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the
transmitting and receiving equipment must be matched
for proper data transfer.
This parameter enables you to specify the channel on
which the Clavinova transmits MIDI data.
Setting range: 1 – 16, OFF (not transmitted)
Normal setting: 1
NOTE
In Dual mode, Voice 1 data is transmitted on its specified channel.
In Split mode (CLP-370/340), right voice data is transmitted on its
specified channel. In Dual mode, Voice 2 data is transmitted on the
next greater channel number relative to the specified channel. In
Split mode (CLP-370/340), left voice data is transmitted on the next
greater channel number relative to the specified channel. In either
mode, no data is transmitted if the transmit channel is set to “OFF.”
NOTE
Song data is not transmitted via the MIDI connections. However,
channels 3 – 16 of Disklavier Piano Soft songs, and non-protected
External songs will be transmitted via the MIDI connections depending on the Song Channel Selection setting (page 66).
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the
transmitting and receiving equipment must be matched
for proper data transfer. This parameter enables you to
specify the channel on which the Clavinova receives
MIDI data.
Setting range: ALL, 1&2, 1 – 16
Normal setting: ALL
ALL:
“Multi-timbre” Receive mode. This allows simultaneous reception of
different parts on all 16 MIDI channels, enabling the Clavinova to

keyboard.
NOTE
NOTE
F7.4: (CLP-370/340)/F7.4:(CLP-S308/S306, CLP-330)
Program Change ON/OFF
Normally the instrument will respond to MIDI program
change numbers received from an external keyboard or
other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly-numbered voice to be selected on the corresponding channel
(the keyboard voice does not change). The instrument
will normally also send a MIDI program change number
whenever one of its voices is selected, causing the correspondingly-numbered voice or program to be selected
on the external MIDI device if the device is set up to
receive and respond to MIDI program change numbers.
This function makes it possible to cancel program
change number reception and transmission so that
voices can be selected on the instrument without affecting the external MIDI device.
NOTE
For information on program change numbers for each of the Instrument’s voices, Refer to MIDI Data Format on the web site.

NOTE
No MIDI reception occurs when Demo mode is engaged or during
file operations.
F7.3: (CLP-370/340)/F7.3:(CLP-S308/S306, CLP-330)
Local Control ON/OFF
“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the keyboard controls its internal tone generator, allowing the
internal voices to be played directly from the keyboard.
This situation is “Local Control On,” since the internal
tone generator is controlled locally by its own keyboard.
Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that the
keyboard does not play the internal voices, but the
appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the
MIDI OUT terminal when notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator
responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN
terminal.
Setting range: ON/OFF
Normal setting: ON
F7.5: (CLP-370/340)/F7.5:(CLP-S308/S306, CLP-330)
Control Change ON/OFF
Normally the CLP-370/340/330, CLP-S308/S306 will
respond to MIDI control change data received from an
external MIDI device or keyboard, causing the voice on
the corresponding channel to be affected by pedal and
other “control” settings received from the controlling
device (the keyboard voice is not affected).
The CLP-370/340/330, CLP-S308/S306 also transmits
MIDI control change information when the pedal or
other appropriate controls are operated.
This function makes it possible to cancel control change
data reception and transmission so that, for example, the
CLP-370/340/330, CLP-S308/S306’s pedal and other
controls can be operated without affecting an external
MIDI device.
