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 bottom panel of the main keyboard 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.

• 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

CAUTION

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

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 instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.

• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet.

• Read carefully the attached documentation explaining the assembly process. Failure to assemble the instrument in the proper sequence might result in damage to the instrument or even injury.

• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal components.

• Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise.

• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.

• Do not place the instrument against a wall (allow at least 3 cm/one-inch from the wall), since this can cause inadequate air circulation, and possibly result in the instrument overheating.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

■ Using the bench (If included)

• 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 stepladder 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 data

• Internal backed-up data (see page 152) 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 a floppy disk (see page 139).

• To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that you save your important data onto two floppy disks.

Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Handling the Floppy Disk Drive (FDD) and Floppy Disks

● Precautions

Be sure to handle floppy disks and treat the disk drive with care. Follow the important precautions below.

● Compatible Disk Type

3.5" 2DD and 2HD type floppy disks can be used.

■ Inserting/Ejecting Floppy Disks .............

To insert 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.

To eject a floppy disk:

Before ejecting the disk, be sure to confirm that the FDD is stopped (check if the [DISK IN USE] lamp is off). Press the eject button slowly as far as it will go; the disk will automatically pop out. When the disk is fully ejected, carefully remove it by hand.

DISK IN USE lamp

Never attempt to remove the disk or turn the power off during recording, reading and playing back. Doing so can damage the disk and possibly the disk drive.

If the eject button is pressed too quickly, or if it is not pressed in as far as it will go, the disk may not eject properly. The eject button may become stuck in a half-pressed position with the disk extending from the drive slot by only a few millimeters. If this happens, do not attempt to pull out the partially ejected disk, since using force in this situation can damage the disk drive mechanism or the floppy disk. To remove a partially ejected disk, try pressing the eject button once again, or push the disk back into the slot and then repeat the eject procedure.

Be sure to remove the floppy disk from the disk drive 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

● To maintain the disk drive in optimum working order

● Never open or close the key cover while a disk is

● Never insert anything but floppy disks into the disk

......................................................................................

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.

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.

extending from the drive (i.e. in the ejected position). The key cover may contact the disk,– possibily damaging the disk or even the disk drive.

drive. Other objects may cause damage to the disk drive or floppy disks.

■ About the Floppy Disks ...................................

To handle floppy disks with care:

● 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 ex-

posed 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).

Data backup

For maximum data security Yamaha recommends that you keep two copies of important data on separate floppy disks. This gives you a backup if one disk is lost or damaged. To make a backup disk use the Disk Copy function on page 142.

matically shut off. Since the Clavinova has two PHONES jacks, two sets of headphones can be used simultaneously, allowing two people to enjoy listening to the performance.

■ Using the Headphone Hanger: ............................................................

A headphone hanger is included in the CVP-202 package so that you

can hang the headphones on the Clavinova. Install the headphone hanger using the included two screws (4 x 10mm) as shown in the figure.

CAUTION

• Do not hang anything other than the headphones on the hanger. Otherwise,

the Clavinova or the hanger may be damaged.

Your Clavinova is equipped with a variety of jacks and terminals that

let you connect it to other audio and MIDI equipment. These connectors are located at the left end of the unit on the rear panel.

You can connect other instruments that you want to play through the

Clavinova’s speakers to the AUX IN jacks, or output the Clavinova’s

sound to external speakers using the AUX OUT jacks. Use the MIDI terminals if you want the Clavinova to control — or be controlled by — another MIDI instrument. There’s even a TO HOST terminal that lets you connect the Clavinova directly to a personal computer.

Be sure to turn the power off when connecting or disconnecting other

equipment. See the instructions in Chapter 9 of this manual for details.

● Playing Along with the Demo Songs

You can play the keyboard while a demo song is playing back. You can also change the tempo (page 25) and use the [REW], [FF] and [PAUSE] buttons. When you play 3. Lyric Demo, the Clavinova will display the lyrics so you can sing (as well as play) along. Also, you can use the Guide function (page 105) while the Clavinova is playing 4. GUIDE Demo. You cannot change the voice selection while the demo is playing, however.

To change songs during playback:

Press the LCD button, VOICE button, or STYLE button of another song; the song then changes. When ALL or RANDOM is selected as the play mode, the Clavinova will play other songs when the selected song is finished.

Demo song data is not output through the [MIDI OUT] terminal; however, your keyboard performance data is output.

CHAPTER 2: Basic Operation

Using the LCD Display Controls

You will refer to the LCD display frequently as you operate your Clavinova. This section consists of a short tutorial that will help you learn how to read the LCD display and use the related controls.

Selecting a Function

Many of the Clavinova’s functions are displayed at the bottom of the LCD. The main display shown below contains two functions: KBD VOL and RIGHT1 VOICE. These items are displayed in rounded rectangles, which means they represent settings that can be changed.

○○○○○○○○○

is the dis-

Before you can change a function’s setting, however, you have to select it first. In the main display, the RIGHT1 VOICE function is highlighted, indicating that this function is currently selected.

To select a function, press and quickly release the LCD button directly below that function. For example, you can select KBD VOL by pressing the leftmost LCD button.

Press to select.

Highlighted items

Selected items are letters on a dark background).

LCD buttons

The five LCD buttons under the LCD display represent different functions, depending on the contents of the display.

highlighted

(i.e., white

CVP-202

Page 17

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

Changing a Setting

There are several ways to change a function’s value. Here are two of the

main ways:

■ Using the data dial or [–] and [+] buttons.................................

Once you have selected a function, you can change its setting with the data dial or the [–] and [+] buttons. Since you have just selected KBD VOL, try turning the dial or pressing the [–] button until it reads 0.

The KBD VOL function sets the keyboard volume. When you set it to 0, you will find that the keyboard won’t produce any sound, no matter how high you set the [MASTER VOLUME] slider!

Using the LCD Display Controls

You can press the [–] and [+] buttons repeatedly to change the value a little, or hold them down to change it quickly.

Refer to page 23 for details on the KBD VOL function.

■ Using the LCD buttons..................................................................................

You can also increase a setting by simply pressing and holding the corresponding LCD button. For now, since you’ll want to hear your keyboard later on, press and hold the leftmost LCD button until the value for KBD VOL is back up to 127.

Hold down to increase.

Once you’ve got the keyboard volume back where it belongs, you can learn about a couple of other ways to change settings.

This is why you should release the LCD button quickly when you select a function: you could end up raising its value when you want to lower it!

CVP-202

Page 18

Using the LCD Display Controls

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

Changing a Setting in a Menu Display

You can use either of the methods described previously to change the current voice selection. Just press RIGHT1 VOICE and hold the button down, or use the data dial or the [+] button to scan through the options. Try listening to a few of the voices while you’re at it…

The problem with this method is that it can be hard to find the voice you’re looking for — after all, the Clavinova has more than 700 voices! So you’ll probably want to use a menu display to see what your choices are. Try pressing the [PIANO&HARPSI.] button now.

Voice

A voice is one of the sounds the Clavinova uses to make music.

PIANO & HARPSI.

E. PIANO

ORGAN & ACCORDION

PERCUSSION

When you press one of the VOICE buttons, the LCD displays a new set of functions listing the voices of that type. You should now be looking at a menu of piano voices.

■ Using the LCD buttons.................................................................................................

Each piano voice in this display is listed as a separate function in a rounded rectangle. This means that you can use the LCD buttons to select voices, just like you did to select the KBD VOL and RIGHT1 VOICE functions at the beginning of this tutorial.

Refer to page 29 for more details about selecting voices.

Press an LCD button to select the corresponding voice.

■ Using the data dial or [–] and [+] buttons................................................

There is another way to select voices in this display. You can use the data dial or the [–] and [+] buttons to change the selection. Press [–] or turn the data dial counterclockwise to select a voice to the left; press [+] or turn the dial clockwise to select a voice to the right.

Keep in mind that you can use the data dial or [–] and [+] buttons to select functions only when viewing a menu display. In other displays, these controls will change the value of the currently selected function instead.

Try selecting different piano voices in this display before you move on to the next step.

CVP-202

Menu displays

You will use menu displays for only two purposes: to select a voice, as shown here, or to select an accompaniment style (page 49).

Use the data dial or [–] and [+] buttons to select a voice.

Page 19

○ ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

Displaying a Different Page

As you were trying out the piano voices in the preceding step, you may have been surprised to see all the voice names suddenly replaced by an entirely different set of voices. Specifically, this occurs when you select the rightmost voice in the display (Midi Grand), then turn the data dial clockwise or press the [+] button.

This happens because the CVP-202 has more piano voices than it can fit in the display. When one of the Clavinova’s features includes more functions than will fit in the display, the functions are divided among two or more display pages. The VOICE SELECT Piano display consists of two display pages, as shown below:

Using the LCD Display Controls

Display pages

Some displays are divided into two or more pages, indicated by a series of overlapping boxes in the upper right corner of the display. The number in the topmost box is the number of the current display page.

PAG E

Use the PAGE buttons to switch between pages.

When a display is divided into pages, you can use PAGE buttons to change pages. Try it: press the [<] button to see page 1, or the [>] but- ton to see page 2. Once you have displayed the desired page, you can use the LCD buttons select a voice in that page as described in the preceding step.

Resetting a Function’s Value

After you have changed a function’s value, you may find you want to restore its basic setting. To demonstrate this, we’ll have to look at another of the Clavinova’s displays. Press the [FUNCTION] button.

FUNCTION

This button calls up one of the Clavinova’s FUNCTION displays. You can use this display to tune and transpose the keyboard.

The TUNE function in this display corresponds to two LCD buttons labeled ▼ and ▲. You can use these buttons to tune the keyboard up or down. Press and hold the ▼ button (or use the data dial or the [–] button) to tune the keyboard down as far as it will go.

MIXER

Refer to page 138 for details about the functions on the FUNCTION [PEDAL] display page.

Basic settings

• The functions of the Clavinova are set to certain standard values or standard conditions when the instrument is shipped. These settings and conditions are called the basic settings.

• A function’s basic settings are generally noted in the sidebar together with the possible settings for that function.

• You can also use the Recall function (page 153) to restore basic settings at any time.

Refer to page 136 for details on the TUNE and TRANSPOSE functions.

CVP-202

Page 20

Using the LCD Display Controls

If you play a few notes, you’ll notice that your Clavinova is flat by quite

a bit. Now, let’s assume that you want to reset the keyboard to the standard

440.0 Hz. You could use the ▲ button (or the data dial, or the [ return the value to its basic setting — but there’s an easier way:

When a function has a basic setting, you can reset it to that value by pressing both the ▲ and ▼ buttons (or both the [–] and [+] buttons) simul- taneously. Try doing this now.

cannot be returned to the basic value by pressing the ▲ and ▼ buttons (or [–] and [+] buttons) simultaneously.

When you’ve got the keyboard back in tune, you’re ready to go on to the next operation.

Using Functions in Non-rounded Rectangles

If you look at the upper right corner of the LCD, you’ll notice that the FUNCTION display consists of several display pages. Press the PAGE [>] key once to open the next page, which is titled FUNCTION [KEYBOARD 2]. We’ll use the functions on this page to discuss the next operation.

In addition to the FIXED VELOCITY function, which is selected in this display, the FUNCTION [KEYBOARD 2] page has two functions in normal rectangles: KEY TOUCH and VOICE SETTING. Such functions cannot be selected; instead, pressing the corresponding LCD button changes the setting directly without selecting the function.

The FIXED VELOCITY function is described on page 137.

CVP-202

Page 21

○ ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

By pressing the LCD button under KEY TOUCH, for example, you can set the Clavinova’s response to how hard you play. The value displayed in the rectangle switches from NORMAL to SOFT, then FIXED, then HARD — but the FIXED VELOCITY function remains selected.

The VOICE SETTING function determines whether reverb, chorus, effect, and other settings are automatically selected when a voice is selected. It works a little differently: when you press the LCD button, the highlighted setting switches between AUTO and MANUAL. Still, FIXED VELOCITY remains selected.

Using the LCD Display Controls

For more details on the KEY TOUCH function, refer to page 137.

For more details on the VOICE SETTING function, refer to page 137.

There are other sorts of functions that are displayed in non-rounded rectangles, like the ones you used to select a demo song in Demo mode (see page 14). The important thing to remember about these functions is that you don’t select them, you execute them.

Now we’re ready to return to the main display. First, however, set the

KEY TOUCH and VOICE SETTING functions back to NORMAL and AUTO, respectively.

Exiting to the Main Display

To exit the current display, press the [EXIT] button.

EXIT

The main display should show the name of the last piano voice that you selected in the VOICE SELECT Piano display.

Using the Direct Access Function

You can usually use [EXIT] to get back to the main display. In some cases, however, this button will return you to a previous setting display instead. When this happens, pressing [EXIT] again will get you back to the main display.

The last function we need to discuss is Direct Access. The [DIRECT ACCESS] button lets you jump directly to pages with particularly useful settings.

When you press [DIRECT ACCESS], the “Press a button to display corresponding settings” message will appear in the LCD display.

● A Word about Messages

For ease of operation, the Clavinova displays various messages (like the message displayed by the Direct Access function as described above) that either prompt you to the next operation, ask for confirmation, or inform you that the last operation is not effective, valid, or appropriate. When such messages appear, follow the instructions as shown. For details about each message, please refer to the “Messages” section on page 165.

● Saving Your Changes

Now that you’ve started learning how to change the Clavinova’s settings, you may be wondering whether it will remember the changes you’ve made even after you’ve turned the power off. The answer is yes — but you need to tell it which settings you want it to remember.

By default, the Clavinova will not remember most of your setting changes. You have two ways to tell it which settings you want to remember:

• You can register your settings with the Registration function (page 89). Once you have registered your settings, you can restore them at any time by pressing a couple of buttons.

• You can instruct the Clavinova to remember certain settings when the power is off, and recall these settings when you turn the power back on. To do this, you need to change the settings of the Backup function (page 152).

CVP-202

Adjusting the Volume

The Clavinova has two sliders that let you adjust the overall volume and the accompaniment or song playback volume. There are also settings that you can use to adjust the keyboard volume and the volume of each part of the automatic accompaniment or song.

Keyboard Percussion

The Clavinova has twelve drum kits and two SFX kits , found on pages 3 and 5 of the [PERCUSSION] voice group. When one of the drum or SFX kits is selected, various drum, percussion, and special effect sounds are assigned to individual keys, letting you play the sounds from the keyboard.

The various drums and percussion instruments of the Standard Kit are indicated by symbols above the assigned keys.

See the drum/SFX kit list on page 8 in the Data List for a listing of the sounds in each drum/SFX kit.

• When a drum kit is selected, only the keys with drum or percussion symbols printed above them will sound.

• When an SFX kit is selected, keys other than those which have been assigned a special effect sound will not produce any sound.

• The Transpose (page 136), Tune

If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal while the note(s) are held, those notes will be sustained as long as the pedal is held, 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 Pedal (Left)

Pressing this pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of

the notes you play.

You can also assign one of many other functions to this pedal; for exam-

ple, you can use it to start/stop the Automatic Accompaniment, or use it to play Fill Ins. See page 138 for details.

• Certain voices in the [PERCUSSION] and [XG] groups may not be affected by use of the sostenuto pedal.

• Certain voices, such as [ORGAN& ACCORDION] or [BRASS], sustain continuously when the sostenuto pedal is pressed.

The effect of the soft pedal may differ slightly depending on the selected voice.

CHAPTER 4:

Reverb and Other Effects

Reverb

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

Reverb is an effect that recreates the acoustic ambiance of a performance space — anything from a room in a jazz club to a concert hall. The Clavinova lets you choose from a variety of reverb effects; you can also set the depth of any reverb effect to your preference.

Because the basic setting of the reverb type depends on the accompaniment style, the reverb type may change automatically when you select a different style.

■ Setting the Total Depth ................................................................................

The overall depth of the selected reverb effect can be set using the TOTAL DEPTH function in the REVERB display.

Z Select the TOTAL DEPTH function.

➔ The TOTAL DEPTH function is highlighted.

• The reverb type selection affects all voices played by the keyboard or Auto Accompaniment. Different settings cannot be made for each part.

• Depending on the selected voice, the depth of the effect may sound stronger or weaker, even though the same reverb type is selected.

• The reverb effect cannot be applied to the sounds input through the AUX IN [R] and [L/L+R] jacks.

• It is also possible to apply reverb effects to the keyboard voices using the [EFFECT] button. See “Changing the Effect Settings” on page 46 for details.

• Basic setting: Depends on voice.

Because the basic settings of the LEFT, RIGHT1, and RIGHT2 functions depend on the voices selected, a reverb depth setting may change automatically when you select a different part.

The amount of reverb that is applied to a part depends on both the part depth and TOTAL DEPTH settings. If one of the settings is 0, no reverb will be applied to that part even if the other setting is 127.

Chorus

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

The Clavinova’s chorus effects let you modify the voices you play from the keyboard, adding warmth for an even richer sound. Flanger effects add pronounced modulation, for a spacy futuristic quality. You can choose from a variety of chorus and flanger effects, and set the depth of the effect added to each keyboard voice.

Changing the Chorus Settings

Unlike the reverb (page 41) and other effects (page 46), which can be turned on or off using the appropriate panel buttons, the chorus feature is always considered to be “on.” How chorus is applied to any given voice depends on the current chorus type and depth settings. You can change these settings using the functions in the CHORUS display page.

The settings of the CHORUS display have no effect on Song mode or Auto Accompaniment playback.

■ Displaying the Chorus Settings ........................................................

Z Press [DIRECT ACCESS], then [REVERB].

➔ The LCD displays either the REVERB page or the REVERB

DEPTH page (whichever was selected most recently).

X Press the PAGE [>] button once or twice, as needed.

Press PAGE [>] twice if the REVERB page was displayed, or once if

the REVERB DEPTH page was displayed.

The Clavinova will begin playing the selected style variation when you start the style using one of the methods described in the next section.

■ Playing Fill-in Patterns ..................................................................................

If you select a different style variation while the style is playing, the Clavinova will play an automatic fill-in pattern as it switches to the new variation. The fill-in pattern, like the main pattern, is different for each variation.

Fill-in patterns

A “fill-in pattern” is a embellishment of the basic rhythm, usually played at the end of a musical phrase as an exciting transition into the next segment.

CVP-202

Page 52

Playing the Accompaniment Styles

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

To change the variation while the style is playing, press the button

corresponding to the new variation.

➔ The button’s lamp flashes as the Clavinova plays the fill-in pattern.

Generally speaking, the Clavinova will start the fill-in pattern soon after you press the button. If you select a variation after the last eighth note of a measure, however, it will begin the fill-in pattern from the start of the next measure.

➔ When the fill-in pattern is finished, the button’s lamp lights steadily

as the Clavinova plays the main pattern.

The auto fill-in feature provides an exciting transition as you switch from one variation to another. If Main A is playing and you press [MAIN B], for example, the Clavinova will play Fill-in B, then start playing Main B.

■ More Fun With Fill-ins ....................................................................................

Using the Pedals

You can also use the left pedal to pause the style or play a special fill-in pattern by setting the LEFT PEDAL function (page

138) to BREAK or BREAK FIL.

You can also play fill-in patterns without selecting a different variation. Just press the button for the variation that is playing. The Clavinova will play the fill-in for that variation, then return to the main pattern.

● Changing the Fill-in

It is possible to switch variations while a fill-in pattern is playing. The

Clavinova will switch to the fill-in pattern for the new variation, then

continue with the new main pattern as usual.

● Repeating the Fill-in

If you hold down the flashing button, or press it after the last eighth

note of the measure while the fill-in pattern is playing, the fill-in pat-

tern will be repeated.

● Canceling the Fill-in

If you press the flashing button earlier than the last eighth note of the

measure while the fill-in pattern is playing, the Clavinova will stop

playing the fill-in pattern and continue with the main pattern.

Starting the Accompaniment Style

There are several ways to start the accompaniment style, as described below:

■ Standard Start.........................................................................................................

This is the simplest way to start a style. If necessary, select a variation as described on page 51, then press the [START/STOP] button.

START/STOP

TAP SYNCHRO START/STOP

➔ The lamp lights and the style starts.

CVP-202

Using the Pedals

You can also use the left pedal to start and stop the style by setting the LEFT PEDAL function (page 138) to START/ STOP.

Beat Indicator

During style playback, the leftmost beat lamp (red) flashes on the first beat of each measure, and the other lamps (green) flash for each successive beat. The current tempo and measure number are shown at the left edge of the main display.

Page 53

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

■ Synchronized Start............................................................................................

on the keyboard.

Z Set the Synchronized Start function.

START/STOP

TAP SYNCHRO START/STOP

➔ The lamp lights, and the red [BEAT] lamp flashes in time with the

X Start playing.

When you are ready, play a note on the keyboard. The style starts playing when you play the first note.

➔ The [SYNCHRO] lamp turns off, the [START/STOP] lamp lights,

and the style starts.

■ Tap Start.........................................................................................................................

This function lets you set the tempo and start the style in one opera-

tion.

If necessary, select a variation as described on page 51, then tap the [TAP] button at the desired tempo. Tap four times for 2- and 4-beat styles, three times for 3-beat styles, and five times for 5-beat styles.

• If the [SYNCHRO] button is pressed while a style is playing, style playback stops and Synchronized Start is automatically set to stand-by.

• When you play the keyboard in Split mode (page 36) or use the Auto Accompaniment in a mode other than

FULL KEYBOARD (page 61), only the left-hand section of the keyboard will trigger a synchronized start.

To cancel the Synchronized Start function before you start the style, press the [SYNCHRO] button again.

If you do not tap the [TAP] button the required number of times (i.e., 3 times for a 3-beat style), the Tap Start function will be canceled after a few seconds.

Using the Auto Accompaniment

You can use one of several methods to indicate the chords that are to be played by the Auto Accompaniment. Choose the accompaniment mode that best suits your playing style.

● Single Finger

The Single Finger method makes it easy to obtain accompaniment in major, seventh, minor, and minor-seventh chords by pressing certain keys (according to simple rules) to the left of the split point indicated by the keyboard guide lamp. (See page 60.)

● Multi Finger

When you select the Multi Finger mode, you can use either the Single Finger method or the Fingered 1 method to indicate chords for the accompaniment. (See page 60.)

Detailed explanations of each accompaniment mode are given on pages 60 and

61.

● Fingered 1

The Fingered 1 method lets you control the Auto Accompaniment by playing full chords to the left of the split point. (See page 60.)

● Fingered 2

This mode accepts the same fingerings as the Fingered 1 mode, with the exception that the lowest note played to the left of the split point is used as the bass root (in Fingered 1 mode, the root of the chord is always used as the bass root). Hence, you can select this mode to play “on bass” or “fraction” chords. (See page 61.)

● Full Keyboard

The Full Keyboard mode automatically produces appropriate automatic accompaniment for virtually anything you play, anywhere on the keyboard. (See page 61.)

Accompaniment Modes

● Single Finger

To control the Auto Accompaniment, press one, two, or three keys in the left range of the keyboard (below and including the split point), following the rules described below. Play the melody in the right range along with the Auto Accompaniment.

■ Single Finger Chords

The following four chord types can be played in Single Finger mode:

• The Clavinova displays the names of the chords you play at the left edge of the main display, below the tempo.

• The same accompaniment continues (even after you release the chord in the left range) until you play the next chord.

• Major

Press the root note of the chord.

• Minor [m]

Simultaneously press the root note of the chord and any black key to the left of it.

• Seventh [7]

Simultaneously press the root note of the chord and any white key to the left of it.

• Minor Seventh [m7]

Simultaneously press the root note of the chord and any white and black keys to the left of it (three keys at once).

● Multi Finger

This method allows you to control the Auto Accompaniment using either the Single Finger method (described above) or the Fingered 1 method (described below). However, when indicating minor, seventh or minor seventh chords, it is necessary to play the white key and/or black key nearest the root note of the chord.

The illustration below shows the key corresponding to each root note.

F# Ab Bb

C # Eb

(Db)(D#)

CDEFGAB

(Gb)(G#)(A#)

● Fingered 1

To control the Auto Accompaniment, play any chord in the left range of the keyboard (below and including the split point). Play the melody in the right range along with the Auto Accompaniment.

CVP-202

• The automatic accompaniment will sometimes not change when related chords are played in sequence (e.g. some minor chords followed by the minor seventh).

• If the Clavinova cannot recognize a chord you play, an asterisk “ * ” will appear instead of the chord name in the display.

• Drums-only accompaniment can be produced by pressing any three consecutive keys (e.g., C, C#, D) simultaneously. This lets you create dynamic “drum breaks” in the accompaniment. A series of dashes “- - -” will appear instead of a chord name in the display.

Two-note fingerings will produce a chord based on the previously played chord.

Playing with the Auto Accompaniment

● Fingered 2

To control the Auto Accompaniment, play chords in the left range of the keyboard as for Fingered 1. In this mode, however, the lowest note you play in the will be used as the bass root, as shown at right.

■ Chords in Fingered 2 mode

The Clavinova will recognize the same chord types as listed above for

Fingered 1 mode.

● Full Keyboard

When the Full Keyboard mode is selected, the Clavinova will automatically create appropriate accompaniment while you play just about anything using both hands, anywhere on the keyboard. You don’t have to worry about specifying the accompaniment chords. The name of the detected chord will appear in the display.

On-bass Chords

C on G

• Although Full Keyboard mode is designed to work with many types of music, some arrangements may not be suitable for use with this feature.

• Chord detection occurs at approximately 8th-note intervals. Extremely short chords — less than an 8th note

in length — may not be detected.

Keep in mind…

You can use the Dual and Split modes together with the Auto Accompaniment.

Press the SYNCHRO STOP button to turn the function on.

➔ The SYNCHRO STOP function is highlighted, and the [SYNCHRO]

lamp lights.

The Auto Accompaniment automatically starts when you play in the left range of the keyboard, and stops when you release it.

To turn the function off, press SYNCHRO STOP again.

This function can only be turned on if the Auto Accompaniment is on and Full Keyboard mode is not selected.

This is useful for beginning players who have difficulty playing in precise time. It is also effective for creating accompaniment “breaks” during the performance.

■ Getting Help With Chords .........................................................................

The CHORD ASSIST function in the ACCOMPANIMENT MODE display uses the keyboard guide lamps to show you appropriate fingerings for chords.

Z Turn the Chord Assistance function on.

Press the CHORD ASSIST button.

➔ The CHORD ASSIST display appears, and the accompaniment

mode automatically changes to Fingered 1.

Chord Assistance

The Chord Assistance feature is essentially an electronic “chord book” that shows you appropriate fingerings for chords; it is useful when you want to quickly learn how to play certain chords. Simply specify the desired chord via the display, and the fingerings for the Fingered 1 method are indicated by the keyboard guide lamps.

• If the [ACMP ON] button is off, it will turn on.

• If the split point is set below F#2, it will automatically be reset to F#2.

• The keyboard guide lamps do not indicate the split point when Chord Assistance is on, since they are used to indicate chord fingerings instead.

This part forms the basis of the accompaniment. The Rhythm part usually plays one of the drum kits.

The Bass part uses voices appropriate to each style, including acoustic bass and synth bass.

The Chord part provides appropriate rhythmic chordal accompaniment for each style. You’ll find guitar, piano, and other chordal instruments here.

The Pad part plays long chords where necessary, using sustained instruments such as strings, organ, and choir.

The Phrase part is used for embellishments such as punchy brass stabs, arpeggiated chords, and other extras that make the accompaniment more interesting.

Playing with the Auto Accompaniment

• The overall accompaniment playback

volume can be adjusted using the [ACMP/SONG VOLUME] slider.

• By adjusting the volume balance of the

various parts, or setting the volume of some parts to 0, you can create variations on the basic style accompaniment.

• When chords are played in the righthand section of the keyboard, the harmony will be applied to the last note played.

Using the Pedals

• If you set the LEFT PEDAL function to HARMONY (page 138), the Clavinova will play harmony only while the left pedal is pressed.

• If you use the left pedal to control the harmony, that pedal will have no effect

when the Harmony function is off (i.e., when the [HARMONY] lamp is not lit).

➔ The HARMONY display appears.

< Record the selected part. ..................................................................

You can now record new notes in the selected part by playing the keyboard at the appropriate timing. Record non-percussion parts in C major seventh (CM7), since the custom style is recorded as a C major seventh pattern.

If you want to create a totally new part from scratch, press the CLEAR LCD button to clear the selected part before beginning to record. If both the R1 and R2 parts are cleared, the metronome will sound to provide a timing guide. (The metronome sound is not recorded, and will stop as soon as the custom style is stored.)

Creating Your Own Styles

• Playback of the custom style can be started and stopped by pressing the [START/STOP] button. (Data cannot be recorded while playback is stopped.)

• All notes are automatically stopped at the end of the style (i.e., at the point between repeats when recording). It is

therefore not advisable to record over this point.

When recording a drum kit voice in part R1 or R2, you can clear a single drum instrument from the part by pressing the key corresponding to the instrument to be cleared while holding down the C1 key on the keyboard. (The C1 key is labeled “CANCEL.”) The metronome timing guide can also be cleared in this way.

Another useful recording aid is the SOLO LCD button: when this button is pressed and highlighted, only the selected part will sound. Press the SOLO button again to turn the solo function off and hear all parts in the selected section.

V Set the value or depth of the selected parameter.

The VALUE (or DEPTH) function displayed above the rightmost LCD button sets the amount or depth for the parameter selected in step 2. When VOLUME is selected, the SECTION setting is fixed at ALL and the VALUE range is from –50 to +50 (this value is relative to the preset volume of the source style). When the REVERB or CHO- RUS parameter is selected, the DEPTH can be set in a range from 0 to 127. When PAN is selected, the VALUE function can be set in a range from L10 (full left) to C (center) to R10 (full right).

B Repeat as necessary.

Repeat the preceding steps to set other parameters for each part and section in the custom style.

■ Saving Styles to Disk ...................................................................................

• The reverb type used for the custom style are determined by the style that was selected as the basis for custom style creation.

• Normally the VALUE and chorus TYPE settings from the preset style are initially selected. If the PART function is set to ALL, the preset values for part R1 are displayed. If the SECTION function is set to ALL, the preset values for MAIN A are displayed.

• The word “OTHERS” may appear as the chorus type if the preset style uses a chorus type other than those in the list. The OTHERS setting cannot be reselected once you select a different chorus type.

Page 5 of the CUSTOM STYLE display lets you save custom styles on a disk. You can save custom styles individually, or in a complete set of up to four styles.

After inserting a properly formatted disk (page 111) in the Clavinova’s disk drive, use the MEMORY No. ▼ and ▲ buttons to select the custom style you want to save to disk, or select ALL to save a complete set of up to four custom styles. When this is done, press the SAVE LCD button to start saving the data to disk. At this point the SAVE display appears.

Enter a name for the style file. The procedure for entering the filename is the same as that used to enter a name for a custom style (page

140). Press SAVE when the name has been entered. If a file with the same name already exists, the “Same name! Overwrite?” message will be displayed. Press OK to overwrite the existing file, or CAN- CEL to abort the save operation.

CVP-202

Page 83

○ ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

Custom styles must be stored in the Clavinova’s memory before they can be saved to a disk. If a custom style has not been stored and you attempt to save it to disk, the “Store in memory before saving to disk” message will be displayed. If this happens, press OK to return to page 5 of the CUSTOM STYLE display. Store the custom style (see step 12 on page 79), then try saving again.

Creating Your Own Styles

Style files can be loaded from disk using the ALL LOAD and SINGLE LOAD functions, as described in the “Loading Style Files” section (page 86).

■ Deleting Style Files .........................................................................................

Style files can also be deleted from a disk using the DELETE function on page 5 of the CUSTOM STYLE display.

After inserting a disk that contains style files in the Clavinova disk drive, press the DELETE LCD button. Use the FILE ▲ and ▼ buttons to select the style file you want to delete from the disk. The “Are you

sure?” message will be displayed. Press YES to delete the style file, or NO to cancel.

■ Exiting Custom Style Mode ...................................................................

Press the [EXIT] button to exit the Custom Style mode and return to the main display.

Playing Back Your Custom Styles

Once created, your original custom styles can be selected for playback by pressing the [DISK/CUSTOM] button, then using the STYLE ▲ and ▼ LCD buttons, the data dial, or the [–] and [+] buttons to select the custom style you want to play. The selected style can then be played in exactly the same way as the preset styles (page 51).

Messages in Custom Style Mode

The following messages may appear when creating and storing a style in Custom Style mode.

■ Memory Full During Recording .........................................................

This message will be displayed if the memory becomes full during recording or editing.

Since only one intro pattern, one fill-in pattern, and one ending pattern can be recorded for each custom style, no intro, fill-in, or ending variations are produced during playback.

Press OK to return to the CUSTOM STYLE display, then simplify the style by clearing a part, etc.

■ Insufficient Memory To Store...............................................................

This message will be displayed if there is not enough memory to perform a store operation.

In this case it will be necessary to either delete a style you don’t need, or simplify the style you are currently recording. Press CANCEL to re- turn to the CUSTOM STYLE display and simplify the current style (by clearing a part, etc.), or DELETE to delete one or more styles.

If you select the DELETE function, the “Select style to de- lete” message will be displayed:

The amount of memory being used by each style is displayed next to the style name (in approximate kilobytes). You can refer to this amount to judge how much memory (out of the total 100 KB) will become available when a particular style is deleted.

CVP-202

Page 85

○ ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

Use the MEMORY No. ▼ and ▲ buttons to select the style you want to delete, then press OK to delete the style, or CANCEL to cancel the operation.

If the Clavinova displays the “Can’t delete this style!” message when you try to delete a style, it is because you have tried to delete the style that your custom style was based on. If this happens, press OK to return to the “Select style to delete” display, then select a different style to delete.

■ Exit Before Store ...............................................................................................

If you press [EXIT] button to exit the Custom Style mode before storing the style, the Clavinova will display a message like the one shown below:

Creating Your Own Styles

Select a memory number and press YES to store the style and exit, press NO to exit without storing the style, or press CANCEL to return to the Custom Style mode.

About the Yamaha Style File Format

The Style File Format is Yamaha’s original auto-accompaniment format, which has evolved through years of development and refinement. The Style File Format features a unique conversion system that allows you to play exceptionally high-quality accompaniments with a variety of chord types. In addition to the internal styles, the Style File Format lets you use other sophisticated styles from optional Style File disks, as well as styles that were created and saved to disk in the Custom Style mode.

Loading Styles from a Disk

Z Insert a disk............................................................................................................

Insert a disk containing style files into the disk drive. The [DISK IN USE] lamp will light briefly while the Clavinova reads and identifies the disk. When a Style File disk is inserted, the STYLE FILE LOAD display (see step 2 below) will appear automatically.

If the disk is already inserted and the STYLE FILE LOAD display is not showing, press the [DISK/CUSTOM] button to open the DISK/ CUSTOM STYLE display, then press the LOAD SINGLE button.

• If the selected memory number already contains a style, the name of that style will appear above the MEMORY and LOAD functions in the display. The existing style will be overwritten when a new style is loaded. (One pre-programmed temporary style is automatically loaded into the [DISK/CUSTOM] memory whenever the power is turned on.)

Using Style

It is not necessary to select a memory number when ALL LOAD is

selected in step 1. Simply press OK to load or CANCEL to abort.

• The ALL LOAD display is as follows:

If there is not enough memory to load the specified style file, the “Not enough memory! Delete an unneeded style?” message will be displayed.
