NOTICE

Power Requirements

Although the instrument will run either from an AC adaptor or batteries, Yamaha recommends use of an AC adaptor whenever possible. An AC adaptor is more environmentally friendly than batteries and does not deplete resources.
Using an AC adaptor
1 Make sure that the power of the instrument is off
(the backlight display is off).
• Use the specified adaptor (page 69) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument or overheating.
2 Connect the AC adaptor to the DC IN jack (power
supply jack).
3 Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trou­ble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet.
Installing the batteries
1 Make sure that the power of the instrument is off. 2 Open the battery compartment cover located on
the instrument’s bottom panel.
3 Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow
the polarity markings on the inside of the compart­ment.
NOTE
• After turning off the power, follow this procedure in reverse order to disconnect the AC adaptor.
• Power will be automatically drawn from the AC adaptor if an AC adaptor is connected while batteries are installed in the instrument.
Using Batteries
This instrument requires six “AA” size, Alkaline (LR6)/ Manganese (R6) batteries, or rechargeable nickel­metal hydride batteries (rechargeable Ni-MH batter­ies). The Alkaline batteries or rechargeable Ni-MH batteries are recommended for this instrument, since other types may result in poorer battery performance.

Connecting a Footswitch to the [SUSTAIN] jack

You can produce a natural sustain as you play by pressing a Footswitch (FC5/FC4A; sold separately) plugged into the [SUSTAIN] jack.
NOTE
• Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the [SUSTAIN] jack before turning on the power.
• Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, result­ing in reversed footswitch operation.
• The sustain function does not affect split voices (page 17) and style (automatic accompaniment; page 22).

Turning the Power On/Off

1 Turn down the [MASTER VOLUME] dial to “MIN.”
A pair of stereo headphones with a 1/4” stereo phone plug can be plugged in here for convenient monitor­ing. The speakers are automatically shut off when a plug is inserted into this jack. The [PHONES/OUTPUT] jack also functions as an external output. You can connect the [PHONES/ OUTPUT] jack to a computer, a keyboard amplifier, stereo system, mixer, recorder, or other line-level audio device to send the instrument’s output signal to that device.
• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones 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.
• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic com­ponents, set all volume levels to the minimum, then turn off the power for all components.
2 Press the [ ] (Standby/On) switch to turn on the
power. While playing the keyboard, adjust the [MASTER VOLUME] dial. To turn off the power, press the [ ] (Standby/On) switch again for a second.
• When using a power adaptor, even when the power is off, a small amount of electricity is still being consumed by the instrument. When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure to unplug the AC adaptor from the wall AC outlet.

Selecting a Voice
Select a Voice by executing Steps 1 and 2 in “Selecting a Main Voice” on page 16.
• When a Dual Voice is selected from Voice numbers 162 to 188, the left Voice section sounds only the Main Voice.
• Certain functions such as Lesson, Harmony/Arpeggio and Dual cannot be used in the Duo mode.
How sounds are output in the Duo mode
Notes played in the left Voice section sound from the left side speaker while notes played in the right Voice section sound from the right side speaker, in the initial Duo mode setting. This out­put setting can be changed from the “VoiceOut” setting (Function 027; page 41).
• In the Duo mode, the pan, volume and tonal characteris­tics of the strereo sound may differ from those in the nor­mal mode, due to the setting of VoiceOut = “Separate” (page 41). Particularly with Drum Kits, the difference may be more obvious, since each key of a Drum Kit fea­tures a different stereo pan position.
Using sustain in the Duo mode
Sustain can be applied to the left and right Voice sections in Duo mode just as it normally is by using one of the following methods in the Duo mode like the usual mode.
• Press the foot switch (page 13) connected to the [SUSTAIN] jack.
• Set “Sustain” (Function 023; page 41) to on.
• Sustain cannot be applied independently to the left Voice section and the right Voice section.
• While Panel Sustain is on, the setting of hold is main­tained even when the power is turned off.
Style Playback in the Duo mode
Although full Style features (accompaniment) cannot be used in the Duo mode, the rhythm part of a Style can be played back while playing the left/right Voices normally.
Recording in the Duo mode
The right Voice section and the left Voice section are recorded on the same track.
To exit from the Duo mode, press the

Playing Songs

These demonstration songs showcase the various sounds of the instrument.
Each of these songs has two variations: an easy one which even beginners can practice with ease, and another more challenging version.
We’ve collected various folk songs from around the world which have been handed down from through the generations, as well as famous classical pieces. Try playing the melody of these songs with your right hand.
Enjoy performing a piece with Style accompaniment (automatic accompaniment data). (Keys to Success is designed so that you master playing the melody with your right hand first, and then learn the roots of the chords with your left hand.)
These songs feature solo instruments other than piano—letting you enjoy playing other instrumental voices along with orchestral accompaniment.
These included famous pieces from around the world along with well-known piano pieces. Enjoy the beautiful, resonant piano sound as you play solo or along with orches­tral backing.

Song Book Sample
Play with both hands as if gently telling a story. It might help to sing or hum the melody as you play.
Similar melody lines and rhythms are repeated in this song, so there aren’t as many sections to practice as
you might think. Enjoy learning each section as you build proficiency.

Warm-up Exercise - “The Semitone Mystery”
Let’s start with a warm-up exercise using three fingers of the right hand.
We’ll start by ascending and descending the white and black keys. Check out the
illustrations until you understand how the fingers are supposed to move, then get
started!
You’ll find it easier to play if you bend your fingers slightly.
Right
Go back to the beginning and play it again.

Diligent Practice Time
Right! Now that we’re warmed up let’s try playing along with the orchestra in 3/4 time.
The melody will be built up little by little.
Compare each line... notice that many of the shapes formed by the notes are very similar.

Warm-up Exercise - “Basic Accompaniment”
And now a warm-up exercise for the left hand.
It’s important to spread your fingers widely from the start.
Don’t play the black keys too strongly.
Diligent Practice Time
Connect the notes smoothly, as if the left hand were passing them to the right hand. You’ll be able to play
smoothly if you move the left hand into position for the next phrase as soon as it finishes playing the first
phrase.

Diligent Practice Time
OK, let’s begin the second half!
You’ll be able to play the melody nicely if you lift your fingers from the keyboard between the slurs.
It might be easier to grasp the key release timing if you sing along with the melody.
Don’t panic and play too strongly where the left hand has to play short notes.
First Half Review
You’ve reached the halfway step! Have you learned all the material provided in the preceding steps?
Now let’s go back and play through all the first-half exercises. If you find that you’re having trouble
playing any of the material, go back and review the steps using the Step Map as a guide.
Always have left-hand finger 5 ready to play the next note!

“Left! Right! Left! Right!”
Play “D E” repeatedly, alternating the left and right hands.
Have the next hand ready in position to play D so you won’t have to rush.
Second Half Review
Try playing all the way through the second half.
As we did after the first half, if there are places you can’t play with confidence go back and review the steps.
Play the Whole Song!
This is the finishing step!
Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. Just concentrate on playing the entire song from start to finish.
Practice this with the lessons learned in each step in mind, and gradually you’ll master the whole song.

Voice List

Maximum Polyphony
The instrument has 32-note maximum polyphony. This means that it can play a maximum of up to 32 notes at once, regardless of what functions are used. Auto accompaniment uses a number of the available notes, so when auto accompaniment is used the total number of available notes for playing on the keyboard is correspondingly reduced. The same applies to the Split Voice and Song functions. If the maximum polyphony is exceeded, earlier played notes will be cut off and the most recent notes have priority (last note priority).
