Taking Care Of Your Clavinova
Your Clavinova is a fine musical instrument, and deserves the most careful treatment.
Observe the following points and your Clavinova will sound and look great for many years.
1 Never open the case and touch or tamper with the inter-
nal circuitry.
2 Always turn the POWER switch OFF after use, and
close the key cover to protect the keyboard.
3 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.
4 Never place any vinyl products on your Clavinova. Con-
tact with vinyl can cause irreversible damage to the
finish.
5 Install your Clavinova in a place that is away from di-
rect sunlight, excessive humidity or heat.
6 Never apply excessive force to the controls, connectors
or other parts of your Clavinova, and avoid scratching
or bumping it with hard objects.
7 Make sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the
voltage specified on the name plate.* In some areas a
voltage selector may be provided on the rear panel of
the main unit. Make sure that the voltage selector is set
for the voltage in your area.
* Name Plate Location
The CLP-123 name plate is located on the bottom panel.

allowing the sound of the tone generator to be reproduced via the Clavinova’s
internal sound system and speakers.
The AUX OUT R and L/L+R jacks deliver the output of the Clavinova for connection to an instrument amplifier, mixing console, PA system, or recording 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 leftand right-channel signals are combined and delivered via the L/L+R jack so you
don’t lose any of the Clavinova’s sound.
The Internal Amplifier & Speaker System
The CLP-123 features a high-performance stereo amplifier delivering 30 watts per channel, and an original Yamaha Active Servo Technology speaker system including two 13cm and two 5-cm speaker units.
Note: The AUX OUT jack signal must never be returned to the OPTIONAL IN jacks, either

The volume levels of the two voices combined in the DUAL mode are
normally set automatically to produce a pleasing balance (see “Default Settings” below). The balance can be adjusted manually by using the C2
through C4 keys on the keyboard while pressing the two voice selectors
corresponding to the voices to be combined in the DUAL mode.
The C3 key produces equal (50:50) balance between the two voices,
while keys to the left of C3 increase the volume of the left voice in relation

to the right voice, and keys to the right of C3 increase the volume of the
right voice in relation to the left voice. By “left” and “right” voice we refer
to the relative positions of the voice selectors — i.e. in a PIANO 2/
CLAVINOVA TONE combination PIANO 2 is the left voice and
CLAVINOVA TONE is the right voice.
Depending on which voices you combine using the DUAL mode, the
combination may sound better if one of the voices is shifted up an octave.
To shift the right voice, press the C5 key while pressing the two voice selectors corresponding to the voices to be combined in the DUAL mode.

Reverb
The [REVERB] button selects a number of digital reverb effects that you can use for extra depth and
expressive power.
To select a reverb type press the [REVERB] button a few times until the indicator corresponding to the
desired type lights (the indicators light in sequence each time the [REVERB] button is pressed). No reverb
is produced when all indicators are off.
OFF ............When no reverb effect is selected (no REVERB indicator is lit), a special natural
damper effect is applied to the piano voices. This simulates the natural resonance of
an acoustic piano’s strings and sound board when the damper pedal is pressed.
ROOM........This setting add a continuous reverb effect to the sound that is similar to the type of
acoustic reverberation you would hear in a medium-size room.
HALL 1 ......For a “bigger” reverb sound, use the HALL 1 setting. This effect simulates the natu-
ral reverberation of a medium-size concert hall.
HALL 2 ......For a really spacious reverb sound, use the HALL 2 setting. This effect simulates the
natural reverberation of a large concert hall.
COSMIC ....The COSMIC reverb effect produces an echo-plus-reverb sound that can add life and

The Pedals
The CLP-123 has three pedals that produce a range of expressive effects similar to those
produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano.
● Soft (Left) Pedal
● Sostenuto (Center) Pedal
● Damper (Right) Pedal
Pressing the soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of
notes played.
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 not be
sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes
are played “staccato.”
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. When
no REVERB effect is selected and a piano voice is selected, the damper pedal also
produces a special “resonance” that simulates the ring of the strings and the sound
board of an acoustic piano. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any
sustained notes. The CLP-123 damper pedal additionally features continuous
damping. This allows you to create shorter effects by pressing the damper pedal
down only part of the way.
11
Touch Sensitivity
Three different types of keyboard touch sensitivity — HARD, MEDIUM or SOFT — can
be selected to match different playing styles and preferences. The different touch sensitivity
settings are selected by using the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] and [REVERB] buttons.
HARD(ROOM indicator) ...........The HARD setting requires the keys to be played quite hard to
produce maximum loudness.
MEDIUM (HALL 1 indicator)......The MEDIUM setting produces a fairly “standard” keyboard
response. This is the initial factory default setting.
SOFT (HALL 2 indicator) ...........The SOFT setting allows maximum loudness to be produced
with relatively light key pressure.

Transposition
The Clavinova’s TRANSPOSE function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of six semitones. “Transposing” the
pitch of the Clavinova keyboard facilitates playing in difficult key signatures, and you can easily
match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instrumentalist.
The [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button and keys F#2 through F#3 on the keyboard are used for transposition.

CRelease the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button.
* Pressing the C3 key produces normal keyboard pitch. Pressing the key to
the left of C3 (B2) transposes the pitch of the keyboard down a semitone,
the next key to the left (Bb2) transposes down a whole tone (two semitones), etc., down to the F#2 key which transposes down 6 semitones.
Upward transposition is accomplished in the same way using the keys to
the right of C3, up to F#3 which transposes up 6 semitones.

Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Clavinova over a ±50-cent range in approximately
1.2-cent 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.

Clavinova
Data Being Recorded
Playback Data
MIDI INMIDI INMIDI OUTMIDI OUT
DRC-20
Clavinova
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. For example, most MIDI keyboards (including the Clavinova,
of course) transmit note and velocity (touch response) information via the
MIDI OUT connector whenever a note is played on the keyboard. If the
MIDI OUT connector is connected to the MIDI IN connector of a second
keyboard (synthesizer, etc.) or a tone generator (essentially a synthesizer
with no keyboard), the second keyboard or tone generator will respond
precisely to notes played on the original transmitting keyboard. The result is
that you can effectively play two instruments at once, providing thick multiinstrument sounds.
This same type of musical information transfer is used for MIDI sequence recording. A sequence recorder such as the Yamaha DRC-20 Disk
Recorder can be used to “record” MIDI data received from a Clavinova, for
example. When the recorded data is played back, the Clavinova automatically “plays” the recorded performance in precise detail.
The examples given above really only scratch the surface. MIDI can do
much, much more. The CLP-123 offers a number of MIDI functions that
allows it to be used in fairly sophisticated MIDI systems.
● MIDI “Messages” Transmitted
& Received by the Clavinova
Note and Velocity Data
This information tells the receiving keyboard or tone generator to play a certain note (specified by the MIDI
note number) at a certain dynamic level (specified by the MIDI velocity value). Note and velocity data is transmitted by the Clavinova whenever a key is pressed, and the Clavinova’s internal AWM tone generator will
“play” the corresponding note(s) whenever note and velocity data is received from an external MIDI device.
Program Change Numbers
The CLP-123 transmits a MIDI program change number between 0 and 8 when one of its voice selectors is
pressed. This normally causes the correspondingly numbered voice to be selected on a receiving MIDI device.
The Clavinova will respond in the same way, automatically selecting the appropriate voice when a MIDI program change number is received. See “Program Change ON/OFF” on page 16 for information on turning program change number reception and transmission ON or OFF.
Control Change Numbers
Control Change data representing Soft, Sostenuto and Damper pedal operations is transmitted by the
Clavinova whenever one of these pedals is used. If the receiving device is a tone generator or another keyboard,
it will respond in the same way as the Clavinova’s internal tone generator when one of the pedals is used. The
Clavinova also receives and responds to the appropriate control change data. See “Control Change ON/OFF” on
page 17 for information on turning control change number reception and transmission ON or OFF.
Note: Always use a high-quality MIDI cable to connect MIDI OUT to MIDI IN termi-
nals. Never use MIDI cables longer than about 15 feet, since cables longer than
this can pick up noise which can cause data errors.
The MIDI information (messages) transmitted and received by the
Clavinova are as follows:

The MIDI system allows transmission and reception of MIDI data on 16
different channels. Multiple channels have been implemented to allow selective control of certain instruments or devices connected in series. For
example, a single MIDI sequence recorder could be used to “play” two
different instruments or tone generators. One of the instruments or tone
generators could be set to receive only on channel 1, while the other is set
to receive on channel 2. In this situation the first instrument or tone generator will respond only to channel-1 information transmitted by the sequence
recorder, while the second instrument or tone generator will respond only to
channel-2 information. This allows the sequence recorder to “play” two
completely different parts on the receiving instruments or tone generators.
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and
receiving equipment must be matched for proper data transfer. An “OMNI”
receive mode is also available, which allows reception on all 16 MIDI channels. In the OMNI mode it is not necessary to match the receive channel of
the receiving device to the transmit channel of the transmitting device (except when receiving mode messages).

MIDI Functions
Other MIDI Functions
The MIDI functions listed to the right are engaged by
holding down the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button and pressing
the corresponding voice selector. Full details are given in the
following pages.
● Local Control ON/OFF
“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.
When using the DOM-30 Disk Orchestra Module with the Clavinova, for example, Local Control should be
turned OFF when recording using the DOM-30 voices only, and ON when recording the Clavinova voices while
listening to playback of the DOM-30 voices.

● Program Change ON/OFF
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.

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 one of its
pedals are operated.
This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission if you do not want
the Clavinova voices to be affected by control change data received from an external device or vice versa.

The Multi-Timbre mode is a special mode in which the Clavinova voices
can be independently controlled on different MIDI channel numbers (1
through 10) by an external MIDI device such as the Yamaha DRC-20 Disk
Recorder. The Multi-Timbre mode can be activated as follows:
ZHold down the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button.
XPress the [E. PIANO] voice selector. If the E. PIANO LED is lit when
the [E. PIANO] voice selector is pressed, you have turned the MultiTimbre mode ON. If the E. PIANO LED is not lit when the [E. PI-ANO] voice selector is pressed, you have turned the Multi-Timbre
mode OFF.

A Multi-timbre Example
Here’s an example of how you could use the Multi-Timbre mode to
record two different parts on the DRC-20 Disk Recorder that will play different voices on the Clavinova when played back.
ZConnect the DRC-20 to the Clavinova as shown to the left.
XActivate the Clavinova Multi-Timbre mode.
CSet the DRC-20 track 1 to record.
VSelect a voice and record the first part on the DRC-20.
BSet the DRC-20 track 2 to record.
NSelect a voice and record the second part on the DRC-20.
MStill in the Multi-Timbre mode, play back the DRC-20. The recorded
parts will be played back using the individual voices selected during
recording, providing a full ensemble sound.

MIDI Functions
▼
● The MIDI Split & Left Local OFF Mode
In the MIDI split mode one section of the Clavinova keyboard is used to play a Clavinova voice in the normal
way, while the remaining section is used to play a second MIDI keyboard or tone generator such as the Yamaha
DOM-30 Disk Orchestra Module. In this mode the right-hand section of the keyboard is used to play an internal
Clavinova voice, while the left-hand section of the keyboard plays the external keyboard or tone generator.
Playing the left-hand section of the keyboard produces no sound from the Clavinova. The “split point,” or the
key that divides the left- and right-hand sections of the keyboard can be set at any desired key.
The MIDI split mode is useful if, for example, you want to play a piano
(Clavinova) voice with the right hand while playing a synthesizer bass line
or string section with the left hand.
When the MIDI split mode is activated, notes played on the left-hand
section are transmitted via the Clavinova MIDI OUT connector on MIDI
channel 2. Notes played on the right-hand section are transmitted on the
“basic channel” (i.e. the channel set using the MIDI channel selection function described previously).

● The MIDI Split & Right Local Off Mode
In the CLP-123 either the right- or left-hand section of the keyboard can be assigned to control an external
keyboard or tone generator. Assigning the left-hand section to external tone generator control was described in
the previous section. To assign the right-hand section to external tone generator control while playing the
Clavinova voices with the left hand, press the [VIBES] voice selector instead of the [HARPSICHORD] voice
selector when activating the Split mode (see the preceding section). All other operations are exactly the same as
described in the previous section.
● Transmitting the Panel Settings
This function causes all the current Clavinova control settings (selected voice, etc.) to be transmitted via the
MIDI OUT terminal. This is particularly useful if you will be recording performances to a MIDI sequence recorder which will be used to control the Clavinova on playback. By transmitting the Clavinova panel settings
and recording them on the MIDI sequence recorder prior to the actual performance data, the Clavinova will be
automatically restored to the same settings when the performance is played back.

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. The Clavinova Reproduces Radio or TV Sound
This can occur if there is a high-power transmitter in your vicinity. Contact your Yamaha dealer.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. 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.

IMPORTANT:Vérifiez que toutes les vis sont bien
serrées à fond.
N Conecte el cable de los pedales.
Pase el cable de los pedales a través de los dos soportes
de cable del panel lateral. La clavija puede enchufarse en
el conector correspondiente de la parte inferior de la
unidad principal (A). La clavija se enchufa sólo en una
dirección (la lengüeta del conector debe estar encarada
hacia la parte posterior de la unidad, como se muestra en la
