Taking Care of Your Clavinova
Your Clavinova will give you years of playing pleasure if you observe the simple rules given below:
1
1. Avoid Humidity & Heat
Avoid placing the Clavinova in areas that are subject to excessive humidity or heat. Do not leave the instrument near heaters
or in a car exposed to direct sunlight, for example.
2. Avoid Dust & Moisture
Avoid locations in which the instrument is likely to be exposed
to excessive dust or moisture.
3. Power-off Before Connecting
Connections between the Clavinova and any other device must
be made with both pieces of equipment turned off.
4. Handle With Care
Never apply excessive force to the controls, connectors or
other parts of your Clavinova, and avoid scratching or bumping
it with hard objects. Further, always turn the POWER switch off
after use, and close the key cover to protect the keyboard.
5. Clean Carefully
Clean the cabinet and keys of your Clavinova only with a clean,
slightly damp cloth. A neutral cleanser may be used if desired.
Never use abrasive cleansers, waxes, solvents or chemical
dust cloths since these can dull or damage the finish.
6. Never Tamper With the Internal Circuitry
Never open the Clavinova cabinet and touch or tamper with the
internal circuitry. Tampering with the circuitry can result in electrical shock!
7. Electric Interference
Since the Clavinova contains digital circuitry, it may cause
interference if placed too close to radio or television receivers.
If this occurs, move the instrument further away from the affected equipment.
8. Name Plate Location
The Clavinova name plate, including the unit’s serial number, is
located on the bottom panel of the main unit.
9. Handling Floppy Disks
Yamaha Disk Orchestra Collection and Style Disk are writeprotected, and therefore cannot be used to save songs. To save
Performance Memory songs from the Performance Memory, a
blank floppy disk should be used (one blank disk is supplied
with the Clavinova).
Taking Care of Your Floppy Disks
■ Do NOT eject the disk during recording or playback, or at
any time when the disk drive lamp is lit. Doing so may damage both the disk and the FDD.
■ Do NOT turn the Clavinova on or off while the disk is in the
drive.
■ Always eject the disk before turning the Clavinova off.
■ When ejecting a floppy disk from the disk drive:
nism and/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, then repeat the eject procedure
carefully.
■ Never open or close the key cover while a disk is
extending from the drive (i.e. in the ejected position).
The key cover may contact the disk, possibly damaging the disk or even the disk drive.
■ Do not insert anything but floppy disks into the disk
drive. Other objects may cause damage to the disk
drive or floppy disk.
■ Use only double-sided double density (2DD) 3.5-inch
floppy disks with the Clavinova.
Precautions Regarding Floppy Disk Use
■ Never open the disk’s shutter. Dirt or dust on the
Internal magnetic surface will cause data errors.
■ Never leave disks near a speaker, TV, or other device that emits a strong magnetic field.
■ Do not store disks in places exposed to direct sunlight or sources of high temperature.
■ Do not place heavy objects such as books on top of
a disk.
■ Avoid getting the disks wet.
■ Be sure to store the disks in environmental condi-
tions as specified below:
• Storage temperature: 4° to 53°C (39° to 127°F).
• Storage humidity: 8 to 90% relative humidity.
• Store in an area free from dust, sand, smoke, etc.
■ Be sure to apply the disk label at the proper position.
When changing the label never cover the old label
with a new label; always remove the old label first.
Head Cleaning
The head of the disk drive unit will get dirty as you use
it eventually causing data errors. If this occurs, clean
the head with a 3.5 inch head cleaning disk (available
from most computer supply stores).
Data Backup
It is recommended that you copy your recorded songs
to another disk for backup (see page 46). If the or iginal
disk is damaged or your song is deleted, the backup
disk can be used instead of the original.
Protecting Your Data (Write Protect Tab)
Disk drive lamp
Write protect tab
• To eject a floppy disk, press the eject button slowly as far as it will go.
Then when the disk Is fully ejected, remove it by hand.
• The disk may not be ejected properly if the eject button is pressed too
quickly or if it is not pressed in far enough. (The eject button may
become stuck halfway with the disk extending from the slot by only a
few millimeters). If this is the case, do not attempt to pull out the
partially ejected disk. Doing so may damage the disk drive mecha-
If you will be using sheet music with your Clavinova, raise the music stand
built into it’s top panel by lifting the rear edge of the music stand.
The music stand can be lowered by slightly lifting the stand and then lowering
it gently back down to its resting position.
To open the CVP-89 key cover lift it just enough to clear the keys (do not lift
excessively) then slide the cover back into the main unit. To close the cover slide it
forward all the way and then lower it gently until it closes completely.

After making sure that the Clavinova’s AC plug is properly inserted into a convenient AC wall outlet, press the [POWER] switch located to the left of the keyboard once to turn the power on. The power indicator located below the left end of
the keyaboard will light. Press the [POWER] switch again to turn the power off.
When the power is initially turned on, the PIANO voice selector LED will
light, the POP style selector LED will light, and the display will appear as shown
to the left.
One or two standard pairs of stereo headphones can be plugged in here for private practice or late-night playing. The internal speaker system is automatically
shut off when a pair of headphones is plugged into either or both of the PHONES
jacks.
The MASTER VOLUME control adjusts the overall volume of sound
produced by the Clavinova. It also adjusts headphone volume when one or two
pairs of headphones are plugged into the PHONES jacks.
Initially set the MASTER VOLUME control about half way between the
“MIN” and “MAX” settings. Then, when you start playing, adjust the control for
the most comfortable listening level.

The CVP-89 features a powerful “3D System” amplifier featuring a single 50-watt channel
and stereo 25-watt channels. This high-performance amplifier and speaker system puts out
exceptionally rich sound with natural response from powerful lows to shimmering highs. The
CVP-89 speaker system employs a single 18-cm speaker for center-channel low-frequency
reproduction, and three speakers each per stereo channel: 13-centimeter speaker units for
midrange sound, 2.5-cm units for outstanding high-frequency sound, and 8-cm units for
player monitoring.
The Clavinova features 25 demonstration tunes that effectively demonstrate
its sound and accompaniment capabilities. Here’s how you can select and play
the demo tunes.

NOTES
these kits will sound when Keyboard Percussion is engaged depends on the
currently selected accompaniment style. Some styles which use the “NORMAL”
kit, however, include instruments from the “PROCESSED” kit, and vice-versa.
• The accompaniment styles listed below use the “PROCESSED” drum kit while all
others use the “NORMAL” kit.

● The number of available notes is further reduced if the dual
mode, the performance memory, or a Disk Orchestra Collection disk is being played at the same time.
The Clavinova also offers keyboard touch response, so the
volume and timbre of notes played can be controlled according to how “hard” you play the keys. The amount of variation
available depends on the selected voice.
NOTES
• Some voices have greater polyphony than shown in the above chart.
Further, some dual-mode and split-mode voice combinations provide 64note total polyphony (32 notes per voice).

Each voice has a preset pan setting (indicated by “KEYBOARD” on the display) which is automatically set when
the power is first turned on.
NOTES
• The “KEYBOARD” default keyboard scale pan places the treble-register sound to the right and the bass-register sound to the left. Using a
different PAN setting places the entire voice, low and high notes included, at the same position.
• The DRUMS voice has a preset PAN setting which cannot be changed.
The damper pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the damper pedal is
pressed notes played have a long sustain. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes.

■Center Pedal (Sostenuto 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
be sustained as long as the pedal is held (as if the damper pedal had been pressed) but all subsequently played notes will

Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Clavinova over a ±50-cent range (approximate) in
approximately 1.2-cent or 1-hertz intervals. A hundred “cents” equals one semitone, so the tuning
range provided allows fine tuning of overall pitch over a range of approximately a semitone. Pitch
control is useful for tuning the Clavinova to match other instruments or recorded music.
ZTo tune up (raise pitch), hold the A-1 and B-1 keys simultaneously (A-1 and B-
1 are the two lowest white keys on the keyboard) and press any key between C3
and B3. Each time a key in this range is pressed the pitch is raised by approximately 1.2 cents, up to a maximum of about 50 cents above standard pitch. To
raise the pitch in 1-hertz increments press the TEMPO [▲] button instead of
the C3-B3 keys. The TEMPO[▼] button can also be used to tune down while
the A-1 and B-1 keys are held.
ZTo tune down (lower pitch), hold the A-1 and A#-1 keys simultaneously and
press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range is pressed the
pitch is lowered by approximately 1.2 cents, up to a maximum of about 50 cents
below standard pitch. To lower the pitch in 1-hertz increments press the

This function lets you set the tempo and start the rhythm in one operation. Simply tap the [TAP] button at the required tempo — 3 times for a 3/4 style and 4
times for a 4/4 style. The rhythm will start from the beginning of the next measure
at the specified tempo.
• The [TAP] button can also be used to change the tempo during rhythm playback.
NOTES
In this case the “tap” click will not sound.
• If you tap the [TAP] button less than the required number of times (i.e. 3 or 4), the
tap tempo function will be cancelled after a few seconds.
During rhythm playback the current measure number is shown in the upper lefthand corner of the display.
● The Beat Display
The four LED dots of the BEAT display provide a visual indication of the se-
lected tempo. The leftmost (red) dot flashes on the first beat of each measure,
the second dot flashes on the second beat, and so on (all dots except the
leftmost dot are green). When a 3/4-time rhythm is selected, only the first three
dots will flash.
The CVP-89 provides two types of automatic “fill-ins.”
■ Fill To Normal: Press the [NORMAL/FILL TO NORMAL] button or the left
FILL IN bar (located in front of the keyboard) during playback to produce a
fill-in and go to the normal rhythm.
■ Fill To Variation: Press the [VARIATION/FILL TO VARIATION] button or
the right FILL IN bar during playback to produce a fill-in and go to the variation pattern.
If you hold one of the FILL buttons or bars, the fill-in will repeat until the end

Auto Bass Chord (ABC)
The CVP-89 includes a sophisticated autoaccompaniment system (Auto Bass Chord —
ABC) that can provide automated rhythm, bass
and chord backing in a number of ways.
■Single-Finger & Fingered Accompaniment
This mode lets you create accompaniment in two ways.
“Single Finger” accompaniment makes it simple to produce accompaniment using major, seventh, minor and minorseventh chords by pressing a minimum number of keys in the ABC section of the keyboard. The automatic accompaniment
consists of rhythm, bass and chords.
“Fingered” accompaniment is ideal if you already know how to play chords on a keyboard, since it allows you to supply
your own chords for the Auto Accompaniment feature.
Press the [SINGLE/FINGERED] button to select the SINGLE/FINGERED
mode (the SINGLE/FINGERED indicator will light).
XSelect a Style ..........................................................................................................................................
Select an accompaniment style using the style selectors (see “Style Selection”
on page 17).
CSet the Tempo.........................................................................................................................................
Use the TEMPO [▲] and [▼] buttons to set the desired accompaniment tempo
if necessary (see “Tempo Control” on page 18 for more details).
Pressing any key on the ABC section of the keyboard (up to the split point —
normally the F#2 key) will cause the automatic chord and bass accompaniment to
begin (synchro start is automatically selected in the ABC mode). If you press a “C”
key, for example, a C-major accompaniment will be played. Press another key in
the ABC section of the keyboard to select a new chord. The key you press will
always determine the “root” of the chord played (i.e. “C” for a C chord). The name
of the detected chord will appear on the display.
Single-finger minor, seventh, and minor-seventh chords can be played as follows:
C
7
• For a minor chord, press the root key and the black key to its left.
• For a seventh chord, press the root key and the white key to its left.
• For a minor-seventh chord, press the root key and both the white and black key to
Cm
7
its left.
Any other two-note fingerings that do not fit the above rules will produce a
chord based on the previous chord.
As soon as you play any chord (up to 4 notes) on the lower keyboard (up to the
split point — normally the F#2 key), the Clavinova will automatically begin to play
[001] Piano1

the chord along with the selected rhythm and an appropriate bass line (synchro start
is automatically selected in the ABC mode*). The name of the detected chord will
appear on the display. If the chord played is not recognized by the CVP-89, only
the root note will be displayed followed by an asterisk (“
* Automatic synchro start switching can be enabled or disabled via the “Auto Synchro Start
Switching” function, described on page 62.
The Clavinova will accept the following 20 chord types
in the Fingered Accompaniment mode:
• Major
• Minor [m]
• Major seventh [M7]
• Sixth [6]
• Seventh [7]
• Minor sixth [m6]
• Minor seventh [m7]
• Minor major seventh [mM7]
• Minor seventh flatted fifth [m7(b5)]

• Flatted fifth [(b5)]
• Seventh flatted fifth [7(b5)]
• Major seventh flatted fifth [M7(b5)]
• Seventh suspended fourth [7sus4]
• Suspended fourth [sus4]
• Augmented [aug]
• Seventh sharp fifth [7(#5)]
• Major seventh sharp fifth [M7(#5)]
• Diminished [dim]
• Minor major seventh flatted fifth [mM7(b5)]
● The [INTRO/ENDING], [NORMAL/FILL TO NORMAL], and [VARIA-
TION/FILL TO VARIATION] buttons can be used in the ABC mode to create
pattern variations in the same way that they are used with rhythm patterns (refer
to the “Accompaniment” section on page 18, 19 for details).

“On-bass” chords can be produced by
playing 5-note chords. the lowest note
specifies the bass note while the upper 4 (or

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

When this advanced auto-accompaniment mode is engaged (press the [FULL

create appropriate accompaniment while you play just about anything, anywhere on
the keyboard: chords, a bass line, arpeggiated chords, a melody line. The name of
the detected chord will appear on the display. You don’t have to worry about specifying the accompaniment chords. Although Full-keyboard ABC is designed to work
with many songs, some arrangements may not be suitable for use with this feature.
Try playing a few simple songs in the Full-keyboard ABC mode to get a feel for its
capabilities.
• Chord detection occurs at approximately 8th-note intervals. Extremely short
chords — less than an 8th note in length — may therefore not be detected.

possible when at least three notes are played anywhere on the keyboard. The name of
the detected chord will appear on the display.
• 2-note fingerings are not recognized in the Conventional Full-keyboard ABC mode.
NOTES
• If more than 5 notes are played in the Conventional Full-keyboard ABC mode, the
lowest 4 notes are used to specify the chord.

The RHYTHM, CHORD 1, CHORD 2, and BASS volume controls can be used to
adjust the volume of the corresponding accompaniment parts when using ABC. In
general, CHORD 1 controls rhythmic chords while CHORD 2 controls more decora-
tive chords (arpeggios, etc.). The volume of the keyboard can be independently controlled by using the BASS volume control while holding the [UTILITY] button.

normally enabled (default).
● Minor HarmonizationWhen playing a 7th chord in a minor key, the ABC system will automatically shift
a 9th note down to the octave, and a 6th note to the 5th when the “Minor Harmonization” function described on page 64 is turned on. The default setting for this function is
off.
• Minor Harmonization will not function in the Full Keyboard ABC mode.
The CVP-89 CUSTOM RHYTHM feature allows you
to create 12 original rhythm patterns that can be later
recalled and played at any time, just like the presets.
Each custom rhythm pattern can be “stored” in any of

• The contents of all 12 Registration Memory locations can be saved to and loaded
from disk using the Save Registration and Load Registration utilities described on
page 44.
• The Registration Tempo utility function described on page 64 determines whether
the tempo setting included in the registration memory data will be used when a
registration memory is recalled.
• Registration data is retained in the Clavinova memory for about one week even if
the POWER is not turned on. To keep the data in memory for longer periods, turn
the POWER switch on briefly at least once a week.
• 12 “preset” sets of registration data are stored in the 12 memory locations when
the CVP-89 is initially shipped.
Using Yamaha Disk Orchestra disks (one is supplied with the CVP-89, others are available from Yamaha),
the Clavinova will let you enjoy listening to automated performances, or function as your “private music tutor,”
allowing you to practice various parts of a piece while the others are played automatically. The CVP-89 also
shows you which keys to play with keyboard guide lamps that light up above each key. You can also play “in
ensemble” with the complete Disk Orchestra arrangement.

■DISK ORCHESTRA COLLECTION Disk Copy
The [ORCH/3-10] and [RHYTHM] parts of songs from DISK ORCHESTRA COLLECTION disks — the disk sup-
plied with the Clavinova and others available from Yamaha — can be copied to separate disks by following the
“Copying Disk Orchestra Disks” instructions given on page 47. Data copied in this way can be played back and manipulated via the Performance Memory (page 35) — you can, for example, record your own [RIGHT/1] and [LEFT/2]
parts.
• Disk Orchestra Collection phrase marks are not copied.
NOTES
■Playing Other Types of Music Data
In addition to Disk Orchestra Collection disks, the Clavinova can also play back Yamaha Disklavier PianoSoft™ disks,
disks containing Yamaha ESEQ format sequence data, and disks containing songs recorded in Standard MIDI File format (formats 0 and 1 — the [REW] and [FF] buttons do not function with format 1 data).
It is possible to change the track 1/2 voice by using the panel voice selectors during playback of Disk Orchestra Collection
and Disklavier PianoSoft disks. In this case the playback voice will become the same as the voice played via the keyboard. The
playback voice cannot be changed when playing back other type of disks (the keyboard voice can be changed).
The phrase repeat function described above can only be used with Disk Orchestra Collection disks. A-B repeat can be used
with any type of data. The guide function can only be used with ESEQ files.
The [ORCH/3-10TR] part select button can also be used with all types of data: with files other than General MIDI files it
turns tracks 3 through 14 on or off, and with General MIDI Files it turns tracks 3 through 9 and 11 through 16 on or off. The
[RHYTHM] button can be used to turn track 15 on and off with file types other than General MIDI (with General MIDI files
the [RHYTHM] button turns track 10 on and off). With any type of file the individual tracks (1 through 16) can be turned on
and off as described on page 31.
When playing files other than General MIDI files the Auto Accompaniment volume controls affect the following tracks
(the volume of General MIDI format tracks cannot be controlled):
When playing General MIDI Files the Clavinova’s internal tone generator is auto-
matically switched to the GM System Level 1 voice allocation.

what you play on the keyboard will be recorded on track 1 or 2.
If you only want to record the ABC sound, de-select track 1 or 2 by pressing the
appropriate button so that the indicator goes out. In the same way, de-select the
[RHYTHM] track if you don’t want to record the rhythm sound.
SOLO
STYLEPLAY
● Recording with Solo Styleplay
If you also select solo styleplay, the solo styleplay sound will be recorded on
tracks 11 through 14. Solo Styleplay can be recorded at the same time as SIN-GLE/FINGERED ABC, but not at the same time as FULL KEYBOARD
mode ABC.
The synchronized start mode is automatically selected when the record ready
mode is engaged, so recording will begin automatically as soon as any key on the
keyboard is pressed or the [START/STOP] button is pressed (see page 18 for the
various synchro start modes). The current measure number is shown on the display
as you record.
The following parameters will be recorded in addition to notes you play:

REC
[001]REC TRACK3660
œ=7812‘‘‘‘‘‘‘‘‘
Press the [REC] button to engage the record ready mode.
● Monitoring Previously Recorded Tracks
All previously recorded tracks are automatically selected for playback when the
record mode is engaged. You can turn these tracks on or off as required by pressing
the corresponding track button(s) before pressing the [REC] button.
CSelect a Track .........................................................................................................................................
Select a track other than the one you used to record the previous track. The indicator
of the track selected for recording should glow red.
• Remember that if you record on a track that has already been recorded, the previous
NOTES
material will be erased and the new material will be recorded in its place.
Press the [START/STOP] button or the [REC] button to stop recording.
● Changing the Initial Parameter Values
The initial values of parameters marked with asterisks (*) in the lists given in step N
on page 37 can be changed for each track or the entire song by engaging the record
mode for the desired track, changing the parameters as required, and then disengaging the record mode (press the [REC] button again) without actually recording. To
cancel any initial parameter values you’ve made, select a different track and then
press the [REC] button to disengage the record mode.
To change individual ABC part volume settings engage any ABC mode after turning
[REC] on, set the RHYTHM, CHORD 1, CHORD 2, and/or BASS volume control
as required, then disengage the record mode.
BASS
UTILITY
Volume of each track
The BASS volume control can be used while holding the [UTILITY] button to independently adjust the volume of each track (except the rhythm track). The volume of
the rhythm track is adjusted via the RHYTHM volume control. Please note that volume settings can only be decreased.
Individual track reverb depth can be adjusted by using the BASS volume while holding the [REVERB] button, and the overall reverb depth can be adjusted by using the
TEMPO [▲] and [▼] buttons while holding the [REVERB] button.
Also note that the tempo, reverb type, style, style variation, fill-in, and intro/ending
settings are common to all tracks and cannot be set independently for different
tracks.
• Only initial parameter data created by the CVP-89 can be changed. Data converted by
NOTES
the Convert to SMF functiion (page 53) cannot be changed. If the data cannot be
changed, “DATA NOT EDITABLE!” will appear on the display.
• Only the individual track volume can be changed for data converted by the Convert to
DOC function (page 52).
● Erasing the Tracks
Individual tracks — except the rhythm track — can be completely erased by starting
and stopping recording without actually playing or changing any parameters (i.e.
press the [START/STOP] button twice). The same procedure can be used to erase
the rhythm track if the RHYTHM volume control is set to its minimum position.
• Tracks 3-10 can be erased by engaging the record mode, turning ABC on, and then
“Punch-in recording” allows you to start recording from any “punch-in” point within a previously-recorded track and
stop recording at any “punch -out” point, leaving all recorded material up to the punch-in point and following the punchout point intact.
Performance Memory
● Recording Without a Disk
The Clavinova has enough internal RAM memory to allow recording for a while
even if a disk is not loaded (up to approximately 2,200 notes — 28 kilobytes — if
no other data is recorded). If you accidentally record without loading a disk, make
sure you use the COPY function (described on page 46) to copy the recorded data
to disk if you want to keep the recorded data (the internal RAM memory is not
backed up). This is necessary because the internal RAM memory is cleared automatically when a Disk Orchestra Collection, Disklavier PianoSoft, or Style Disk is
loaded, or a performance disk is loaded and the [SONG SELECT] button is
pressed.
● Recording Using General MIDI Voice Assignments
It is also possible to use the General MIDI voice assignments when recording with
the Performance Memory. See “The Multi-Timbre Mode” on page 57 for details.

Performance Memory
■Playback
Original Performance Memory recordings can be played back and controlled in
the same way as described in the Disk Orchestra section, beginning on page 30.
You can individually select tracks to play back (page 31), use the guide function
and keyboard guide lamps with the data recorded on tracks 1 and 2 (page 32), and
use the A-B repeat function (page 33).
• The playback voice cannot be changed when playing back Performance Memory
NOTES
data (the voice played via the keyboard can be changed).
● Volume Control
The RHYTHM, CHORD 1, CHORD 2, and BASS volume controls can be
used to adjust the volume of the corresponding accompaniment parts when
playing back data that was recorded with ABC.
When playing back data that was recorded without ABC, however, these
volume controls have the following track assignments.
RHYTHM ........ RHYTHM track
BASS ............. 3 track
CHORD 1 ....... 4 - 10 tracks
CHORD 2 ....... 1 & 2 tracks
● Multi-timbre Recording via MIDI
Data from an external MIDI device such as a sequencer or music computer can also be recorded to the Performance
Memory as follows:
ZMake the Required MIDI Connections
Connect the MIDI OUT terminal of the trans-
mitting device to the Clavinova’s MIDI IN terminal
using a standard MIDI cable.
XSelect the External Clock Mode
To select the external clock mode press the
[ORGAN] VOICE button while holding the
[UTILITY] button. When selected, the [ORGAN]
indicator will light while the [UTILITY] button is
pressed. In this mode the Clavinova is controlled by
an external MIDI clock signal.
CSelect a Song Number
Select the song number to which you want to
record the data by using the SONG/PHRASENUMBER [▲] and [▼] buttons (of course, a properly formatted floppy disk must already be loaded in
the disk drive).
VEngage the MIDI Record Ready Mode
Press the [REC] button while holding the
[UTILITY] button to engage the MIDI record ready
mode. In this mode all tracks (1 through 15) can be
recorded at the same time via the correspondingly
numbered MIDI channels. That is, MIDI data received on channel 1 will be recorded on track 1, data
received via channel 2 will be recorded on track 2,
etc.
BMatch the Time Signature & Tempo
matches that of the data you are going to record (e.g.
4/4, 3/4), and match the Clavinova tempo setting to
that of the data to be recorded.
NRecord the MIDI Data
music computer, or other device. Recording will start
and stop automatically.
NOTES
• Please note that the Clavinova’s internal styles cannot be played
during multi-timbre recording.
• Any notes played on the keyboard and other setting changes will
be recorded on track 1 during multi-timbre recording.
• Initial panel settings will not be recorded unless the settings are
changed in the record ready mode.
• Previous data on all tracks will be erased when new data is
recorded in the multi-timbre mode.
• If multi-timbre recording is carried out while the GM Multi-Timbre
mode is turned on (page 57), or a “GM on” message is received
during recording, GM voice recording is possible on tracks 1
through 14.
• Be sure to turn the multi-timbre and external clock modes off

Utility Functions
■13: Disk Format
The Clavinova uses only 3.5" 2DD floppy disks. We recommend that you use Yamaha 2DD disks. Before you can use a
new disk for recording, the disk must be “formatted” so that the Clavinova can recognize it and correctly write the music
data onto it.
ZInsert the Disk To Be Formatted ...........................................................................................................
Insert a new blank disk. Make sure that the disk’s write protect tab is set to the
“write” position (tab closed), and insert the new disk into the disk drive unit with the
sliding door facing the drive slot and the label side of the disk facing upward. The disk
should click securely into place, and the disk drive lamp should light briefly.
• “UNFORMATTED DISK!” will appear on the display to indicate that a blank
NOTES
(unformatted) disk or one with a format not recognizable by the CVP-89 is loaded in
the drive. If you press the [UTILITY] button at this point utility function 13: Disk Format will automatically be selected.
• “DISK PROTECTED” will appear if a protected disk that cannot be formatted is
loaded in the drive: a write-protected disk, a Disk Orchestra Collection disk, a
Disklavier disk, or a disk formatted by the Disklavier.

pear on the display. Use the TEMPO [s] (YES) and [t] (NO) buttons to confirm and
continue or cancel the operation. “YES” if you intend to execute the format operation
or “NO” if you wish to cancel the operation. This step is necessary because formatting
completely erases any data that is already on the disk — make sure that the disk you’re
about to format does not contain any important data!
Formatting will begin the instant you select “YES”. The number of each “track” on
the disk will be shown on the display as the format process continues (“F80” through
“END”). When formatting is complete (the display will show “END”), you can go
ahead and record using the performance memory, or use the Song Copy function to
copy songs or Disk Style data to the disk.
• The format operation can be aborted at any time prior to actually starting the format
NOTES
operation (i.e. prior to pressing the TEMPO [s] button) by pressing the [UTILITY] or
[START/STOP] button. In this case, the disk will have to be properly formatted again
before use.
■14: Standard MIDI File Playback Mode (SMF Data Format)
This function determines whether standard MIDI files on floppy disk are played
back using the General MIDI voice assignments or the standard Clavinova voice assignments.
Once the Standard MIDI File Playback Mode function has been selected, use the
TEMPO [s] and [t] buttons to select “NORMAL” or “GM”, then release the
[UTILITY] button.
Utility Functions
NORMAL Standard SMF Mode. Standard Clavinova voice assignments (unless a “GM

■Disk Error Messages
If an error related to the disk occurs, one of the following messages may appear. If this happens, check the possible
causes and solutions listed below. If all else fails, try a different disk. If this doesn’t clear up the problem, contact your
Yamaha dealer.
DISKERROR!An error occurred while writing to or reading from the disk.
Try the operation again; if the error occurs a second time the disk or drive may be faulty.
If the drive has been in use for some time the heads may be dirty. Clean the heads with a
commercially-available floppy disk head cleaner. If the error still occurs with one disk and
not others the disk should be considered faulty and should be discarded. If the error occurs
with all disks the drive may be faulty. Refer the problem to your Yamaha dealer.
DISKPROTECTED!You have attempted to format, write to, copy to/from, or delete data from a write-
protected disk. Use a disk that is not write protected (set the disk’s write-protect tab to the
write-enable position).
UNFORMATTEDDISK!The loaded disk is not formatted for use with the Clavinova. After making sure that the
disk does not contain any important data (for another device, for example), format the disk
as described on page 48.
DISKFULL!The currently loaded disk is full and cannot hold any more data.
Either delete unnecessary data or replace the disk with one that has more available disk
space.
NODISK!A disk read or write operation was attempted but no disk is present in the disk drive.
Make sure an appropriate disk is inserted in the disk drive before performing any operation that involves disk access.
INCOMPATIBLEDATA!You have attempted to perform a Convert to DOC or SMF function on data that cannot be
converted.
DATANOTEDITABLE!You have attempted to record or edit data that is not recognized by the CVP-89. Refer to
MIDI, the Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a world-standard communication interface that allows MIDI-compatible musical instruments and equipment to share musical information and control one another. This makes it possible to
create “systems” of MIDI instruments and equipment that offer far greater versatility and control than is available with isolated instruments.
The Clavinova has 11 MIDI functions that can be accessed via the normal function selection procedure (page 42), or by

MIDI OUT
“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the Clavinova 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 Clavinova keyboard does not
play the internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via
the MIDI OUT connector when notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time,
the internal tone generator responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN
connector. This means that while an external MIDI sequencer, for example, plays the
Clavinova’s internal voices, an external tone generator can be played from the
Clavinova keyboard. Local Control is automatically turned ON when the power is

Normally the Clavinova will respond to MIDI program change numbers received from an external keyboard or other
MIDI device, causing the correspondingly numbered Clavinova voice to be selected. The Clavinova 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 Clavinova without affecting the external MIDI device, and vice versa. Program Change is automatically turned

Normally the Clavinova will respond to MIDI control change data received from an external MIDI device or keyboard,
causing the selected Clavinova voice to be affected by pedal and other “control” settings received from the controlling device. The Clavinova also transmits MIDI control change information when either of its pedals are operated.
This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission if you do not want the

■26: The Multi-Timbre Mode
The Multi-Timbre mode is a special mode in which the Clavinova voices can be independently controlled on different
MIDI channel numbers (1—15 in the CVP mode; 1—10,15, 16 in the DOC mode; 1—16 in the GM mode) by an external
MIDI device. The Multi-Timbre mode is off (SINGLE) when the power is initially turned on.

CVPMulti-track MIDI data received by the CVP-89 is played using the panel voice
assignments — i.e. the same voices selected by the panel controls.
DOCMulti-track MIDI data received by the CVP-89 is played using the Yamaha
DOC voice assignments. The panel voice assignments are not changed but
the transmitted data is converted to DOC voice assignments.
GMMulti-track MIDI data received by the CVP-89 is played using General MIDI
voice assignments. Transmitted data is also converted to GM voice assignments. When this mode is selected the panel voices also conform to the GM
assignments (voices 1—128, drum kits 129—136).
• See page vii, viii for listings of the voice assignments in each mode.
NOTES
• The Dual, Split, internal Style, ABC, and Solo Style Play functions will not operate in
the DOC or GM mode.
• Either “DOC MODE” or “GM MODE” will appear on the display when you return to the
play mode.
● Recording with the GM Voices
If you press the Performance Memory [REC] button while the GM mode is engaged, the [REC] indicator and the indicator of the last selected track will light
(red), and that track will be in the record ready mode. The remaining recording
procedure is the same as described on page 35.
• If the selected song number already contains data that was not recorded in the GM
NOTES
mode, “DATA NOT EDITABLE!” will appear on the display and recording will not be
possible. The reverse is also true: i.e. panel-voice data cannot be recorded to a song
that already contains GM-voice data.
• Internal styles cannot be recorded in the GM mode.
• Select a voice number between 129 and 136 to record a drum voice. When the
[RHYTHM] button is pressed voice number 129 will automatically be selected if another drum voice is not already selected. Track number 10 is automatically selected
for recording.
• Only tracks 3 through 9 can be selected using the [ORCH/3-10] and SONG/PHRASE
NUMBER [s] and [t] buttons (track 10 is selected by pressing the [RHYTHM] button). It is possible, however, to record voices 129 through 136 to tracks 3 through 9.
In the split send mode notes played on the left-hand section of the keyboard (to the left of and including the split point
key — see “Changing the Split Point” on page 10) are transmitted on MIDI channel 2, while the upper keyboard section
transmits on the MIDI channel set using the Send Channel Select function described earlier. In this mode the left- and righthand sections of the keyboard can be used to play separate external keyboards or tone generators set to receive on the appropriate channels. The Split Send Mode is automatically turned OFF when the power is initially turned on.

equipment. If you will be connecting the Clavinova to a monaural sound system,
use only the L/L+R jack. When a plug is inserted into the L/L+R jack only, the
left- and right-channel signals are combined and delivered via the L/L+R jack so
you don’t lose any of the Clavinova’s sound.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter what appears to be a malfunction, please check the following points before assuming that
your Clavinova is faulty.
1. No Sound When the Power is Turned On
Is the AC plug properly connected to an AC wall outlet? Check the AC connection carefully. Is the MASTER VOLUME control turned up to a reasonable listening level?
2. No Rhythm, ABC, or Performance Memory Sound
Check the Auto Accompaniment volume control settings. No sound is produced if these are set to their minimum
positions.
3. The Clavinova Reproduces Radio or TV Sound
This can occur if there is a high-power transmitter in your vicinity. Contact your Yamaha dealer.
4. Intermittent Static Noise
This is usually due to turning on or off a household appliance or other electronic equipment which is fed by the same
AC mains line as your Clavinova.
5. Interference Appears On Radio or TV Sets Located Near the Clavinova
The Clavinova contains digital circuitry which can generate radio-frequency noise. The solution is to move the
Clavinova further away from the affected equipment, or vice versa.
6. Distorted Sound When the Clavinova is Connected to An External Amplifier/Speaker System
If the Clavinova is connected to a stereo system or instrument amplifier and the sound is distorted, reduce the setting
of the Clavinova volume control to a level at which the distortion ceases.
