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.

WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock,
short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
• 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
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.
• 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
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:
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.
• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required
voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
• Before cleaning the instrument, always remove the electric plug from the
outlet. Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may
have accumulated on it.
• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators,
and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy
objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over,
or roll anything over it.
• 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.
• 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.
• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be
used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
• 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.
• 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 near other electrical products such as televisions,
radios, or speakers, since this might cause interference which can affect
proper operation of the other products.
• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.
• 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. Also, do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.
• Gently remove dust and dirt with a soft cloth. Do not wipe too hard since
small particles of dirt can scratch the instrument’s finish.
• Bumping the surface of the instrument with metal, porcelain, or other hard
objects can cause the finish to crack or peel. Use caution.
• 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.
• Take care that the key cover does not pinch your fingers, and do not insert a
finger or hand in the key cover gap.
• Never insert or drop paper or metallic or other objects between the slits of
the key cover and the keyboard. If this happens, immediately turn off the
power and remove the electric plug from the outlet and have the instrument
inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
• 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.
• 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 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 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.
• Do not attempt to adjust the bench height while sitting on the bench, since
this can cause excessive force to be imposed on the adjustment mechanism, possibly resulting in damage to the mechanism or even injury.
• If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten
them periodically using the included tool.
■SAVING USER DATA
• Save all data to an external device such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3,
in order to help prevent the loss of important data due to a malfunction or
user operating error.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.

provides graded key weight and response throughout the keyboard range. The grand piano
voices feature totally new samples painstakingly recorded from a full concert grand piano.
The GRAND PIANO 1 voice features multiple velocity-switched samples (Dynamic Sampling), a “Soundboard Reverb” effect which accurately simulates the resonance of a piano
soundboard, special “Sustain Samples” which recreate the unique resonance of an acoustic
grand piano’s soundboard and strings when the damper pedal is pressed, and “Key-off
Samples” that add the subtle sound produced when the keys are released.
● Dual mode allows 2 voices to be played simultaneously .
● Split mode allows different voices to be played by the left and right hands.
● Metronome feature with variable tempo facilitates practice.
● 2-track digital recorder lets you record and play back anything you play on the keyboard.

• The AUX OUT jack signal must never be returned to the AUX IN jacks, either directly
or through external equipment.
• The AUX OUT jack signal is not controlled by the Clavinova’s volume or
brilliance control. Use the volume control on the external audio equipment to
adjust the level.
2 AUX IN L/L+R and R Jacks
These jacks are intended for use with an external tone generator module
such as the Yamaha DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit. The stereo outputs from
the external tone generator module are connected to the AUX IN L/L+R
and R jacks, allowing the sound of the tone generator to be reproduced via
the Clavinova’s internal sound system and speakers. A line-level mono
source can be connected to the L/L+R jack.

The Pedals
The Clavinova has three foot pedals that produce a range of expressive
effects similar to those produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano.
Soft pedal
Damper pedal
Sostenuto pedal
Damper (Right) Pedal ................................................................................
The damper pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on
an acoustic piano. When the damper pedal is pressed notes played have
a long sustain. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any
sustained notes.
When the GRAND PIANO 1 voice is selected, pressing the damper
pedal activates the instrument’s special “Sustain Samples” to accurately
recreate the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano’s soundboard
and strings.
• The depth of the effect produced by the “Sustain Samples” can be
adjusted via the “Pedal Functions” (page 32) in the function mode.
• If the damper pedal doesn’t work, or notes are sustained even when the
pedal is not pressed, make sure that the pedal cord is properly plugged
into the main unit (page 50).
Sostenuto (Center) Pedal......................................................................
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto
pedal while the note(s) are held, those notes will 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.”
• Organ, string and choir voices will continue to sound for as long as the
sostenuto pedal is depressed.
Soft (Left) Pedal...............................................................................................
The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of
notes played while the pedal is pressed. The soft pedal will not affect
notes which are already playing when it is pressed.
The left pedal can also be assigned to song start/stop operation via
the “Left Pedal Mode” described on page 32.

Touch Sensitivity
Four different types of keyboard touch sensitivity — HARD, MEDIUM, SOFT
or FIXED — can be selected to match different playing styles and preferences.
TOUCH
HARD
MEDIUM
SOFT
To select a touch sensitivity type press the [TOUCH] button a few
times until the indicator corresponding to the desired type lights (the
indicators light in sequence each time the [TOUCH] button is pressed).
HARD
The HARD setting requires the keys to be played quite hard to
produce maximum loudness.
MEDIUM
The MEDIUM setting produces a fairly “standard” keyboard response.
This is the initial factory default setting.
SOFT
The SOFT setting allows maximum loudness to be produced with
relatively light key pressure.
FIXED (no indicator lit)
All notes are produced at the same volume no matter how hard the
keyboard is played.
When the FIXED type is selected, the volume of notes played in the
FIXED mode can be set by using the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons while
the [TOUCH] button is held (the current volume level appears on the
display). The volume range is from 1 through 127. The default setting
is 64.
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 12 semitones
(i.e. a maximum of one octave up or down). “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.

• This setting does not change the weight of the keyboard.
• The touch sensitivity type and volume set in the FIXED mode will become
the common setting for all voices. However, the touch sensitivity settings
may have little or no effect with certain voices which are not normally
responsive to keyboard dynamics (Refer to the “Voice Descriptions” on
page 41).
Use the [–/NO] or [+/YES] button while holding the [TRANS-
POSE] button to transpose down or up as required. The transposition
range is from “–12” (down one octave) through “0” (normal pitch) to
“12” (up one octave). The amount of transposition appears on the LED
display while the [TRANSPOSE] button is held. The default transpose
setting is “0”.
• The [TRANSPOSE] button indicator remains lit when a transpose setting
other than “0” is selected.
• Notes below and above the A-1 … C7 range of the Clavinova sound one
octave higher and lower, respectively.

The ability to record and play back what you’ve played on the Clavinova
keyboard can be an effective practice aid. You can, for example, record just the
left-hand part, and then practice the right-hand part while playing back the recorded left-hand part. Or, since you can record up to two tracks separately, you
could record the left- and right-hand parts separately, or record both parts of a
duet and hear how they sound when played back.
The user song recorder actually records the following data:
■ Entire Song
● Tempo ● Time signature (beat) ● Reverb type (including OFF) ● Effect type
■ Individual Tracks
● Notes played ● Voice selection
● Dual mode voices ● Split mode voices
● Damper pedal ● Soft pedal
● Sostenuto pedal (not recorded as an initial setting)
● Effect depth ● Reverb depth
● Dual balance (F3) ● Dual detune (F3) ● Dual octave shift (F3)
● Split balance (F4) ● Split octave shift (F4)

• All user song recorder data will be retained in memory for about one week after the
power is turned off. If you want to keep your recorded data for longer periods, turn the
power on for a few minutes at least once a week. It is also possible to store it to an
external MIDI storage device such as the Y amaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3 by using the
Bulk Data Dump function described on page 35.
• The track indicators will not light automatically when the power is turned on even if the
user song recorder contains data. It is therefore necessary to press the track buttons so
that the corresponding green indicators light before starting recorder playback. It is also
a good idea to press the track buttons to check if the tracks contain data before
recording. If the green indicator lights when the corresponding track button is pressed,
that track contains data which will be erased and replaced by the newly-recorded data.
• If the metronome is being used during playback, the metronome will automatically stop
when playback is stopped.

MIDI, the Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a worldstandard 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
This same type of musical information transfer is used for MIDI
sequence recording. A sequence 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 Clavinova MIDI functions allow it to
be used in fairly sophisticated MIDI systems.
After selecting “F8.Y”, press the [+/YES] button to engage the MIDI function sub-mode, then use
the FUNCTION [<] and [>] buttons to select the desired MIDI function, as listed below.
• The bottom-panel HOST SELECT switch must be set to “MIDI” in order to use the MIDI connectors. When you
use the TO HOST connector, set the HOST SELECT switch to the appropriate position for the type of computer
you are using (see page 37). In this situation, all MIDI settings described below will have affect on the MIDI
signal in and out of the TO HOST connector.
• Always use a high-quality MIDI cable to connect MIDI OUT to MIDI IN terminals. Never use MIDI cables longer
than about 15 meters, since cables longer than this can pick up noise which can cause data errors.

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.
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 differ-

The Function Mode
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and receiving equipment must
be matched for proper data transfer. A “Multi-timbre” receive mode is also av ailable, which allows
simultaneous reception of different parts on all 16 MIDI channels, allowing the Clavinova to play
multi-channel song data received from a music computer or sequencer. There’s also a “1-2” mode
which allows simultaneous reception on channels 1 and 2.
Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to select the desired transmit or receive channel. The transmit channel parameter can also be turned “OFF” if you don’t want the Clavinova to transmit any
MIDI data. To select the multi-timbre receive mode, set the receive channel to “ALL”. Select “1-2”
for multi-timbre reception on channels 1 and 2 only.
Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting: transmit = “1”;
receive = “ALL”.
• In the dual mode first voice data is transmitted on its set channel, and in the split mode right voice data is
transmitted on its set channel. In the dual mode second voice data is transmitted on the next greater channel
number of the set channel, and in the split mode left voice data is transmitted on the next greater channel
number of the set channel. In either mode, no data is transmitted if the transmit channel is set to “OFF”.
• Demo/preset song data and recorder playback data are not transmitted via MIDI.
• No MIDI reception occurs when the demo/preset song mode is engaged.
• Program change and other like channel messages received will not affect the Clavinova’s panel settings or
what is being played on the keyboard.
F8.3: 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 DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit with the Clavinova, for example, Local Control
should be turned OFF when recording using the DOU-10 voices only, and ON when recording the
Clavinova voices while listening to playback of the DOU-10 voices.
Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to turn local control “On” or “OFF”.
Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “On”.
F8.4: 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 voice to be selected on
the corresponding channel (the keyboard voice does not change). 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.
Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to turn program change transmission and reception “On” or
“OFF”.
Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “On”.
• For information on program change numbers for each of the Clavinova’s voices, refer to page 44 in the MIDI
Data Format section.

F8.5: Control Change ON/OFF......................................................................................................
Normally the Clavinova will respond to MIDI control change data received from an external MIDI device or keyboard, causing the voice on the corresponding channel to be affected
by pedal and other “control” settings received from the controlling device (the keyboard voice
is not affected). The Clavinova also transmits MIDI control change information when one of
its pedals or other appropriate controls are operated.
This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission so
that, for example, the Clavinova pedals and other controls can be operated without affecting an
external MIDI device.
Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to turn control change transmission and reception
“On” or “OFF”.
Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “On”.
• For information on control changes that can be used with the Clavinova, refer to the MIDI Data Format
on page 43.
F8.6: MIDI T ransmit Transpose......................................................................................................
This function allows the MIDI note data transmitted by the Clavinova to be transposed up
or down in semitone increments by up to plus or minus 12 semitones. The pitch of the
Clavinova itself is not affected.
Use the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to set the desired amount of MIDI transmit transposition. The range is from “–12” (down one octave) through “0” (no transposition) to “12” (up
one octave).
Press the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “0”.
F8.7: Panel/Status T ransmit .............................................................................................................
This function causes all the current Clavinova panel 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 such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3 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.
Press the [+/YES] button to transmit the panel/status data. “End” will appear on the LED
display when the data has been successfully transmitted.
• See page 44 for list of the “Panel Data Contents” transmitted by this function.
• Panel setting data that is transmitted to an external device can only be reloaded on a model of the
same type. Panel setting data can also be directly transferred to or from instruments of the same
model type.
F8.8: Bulk Data Dump ............................................................................................................................
This function is used to transmit all data stored in the Recorder memory to a MIDI data
storage device such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3, other sequence recorders, or MIDI
compatible computers.
Press the [+/YES] button to begin bulk transmission. “End” will appear on the LED
display when the data has been successfully transmitted.
• User song recorder data that is transmitted to an external device can only be reloaded on a model of
the same type. Recorder data can also be directly transferred to or from instruments of the same
model type.
• The reload operation cannot be executed when the demo/preset song mode or user song recorder is
in operation, or when the Function mode is engaged.

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 T urned ON
Is the AC plug properly connected to the Clavinova
and an AC wall outlet? Check the AC connection
carefully. Is the MASTER VOLUME control turned
up to a reasonable listening level?
Also make sure that a pair of headphones is not
plugged into the PHONES jack, and that the Local
Control (page 34) is ON.
2. The Damper Pedal Doesn’t Work
If the damper pedal doesn’t work, or notes are sustained even when the pedal is not pressed, make sure
that the pedal cord is properly plugged into the main
unit (page 50).
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 aw ay from the affected
equipment, or vice versa.
6. Noise is heard from the Clavinova’s speakers.
The noise may be due to interference caused by the
use of a mobile phone in close proximity to the
Clavinova.
Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away
from the Clavinova.
7. 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 volume of the external equipment to a
level at which the distortion ceases.
● If “Scn” appears on the display an internal
malfunction has occurred. In this case,
contact your Y amaha dealer .

MIDI Data Format
If you’re already very familiar with MIDI, or are using a computer to control your music hardware with computer-generated
MIDI messages, the data provided in this section can help you to control the Clavinova.
1. NOTE ON/OFF
Data format: [9nH] -> [kk] -> [vv]
9nH = Note ON/OFF event (n = channel number)
kk = Note number (Transmit: 09H ~ 78H = A-2 ~ C8 /
Receive: 00H ~ 7FH = C-2 ~ G8)*
vv = Velocity (Key ON = 01H ~ 7FH, Key OFF = 00H)
Data format: [8nH] -> [kk] -> [vv] (reception only)
8nH = Note OFF event (n = channel number)
kk = Note number: 00H ~ 7FH = C-2 ~ G8
vv = Velocity
* If received value exceeds the supported range for the selected
voice, the note is adjusted by the necessary number of octaves.

For stability, an adjuster is provided on the bottom of the
pedal box (B). Rotate the adjuster until it comes in firm contact
with the floor surface. The adjuster ensures stable pedal operation
and facilitates pedal effect control. If the adjuster is not in firm
contact with the floor surface, distorted sound may result.
■ After completing the assembly, please
check the following.
● Are there any parts left over?
m Review the assembly procedure and correct any errors.
● Is the Clavinova clear of doors and other movable fixtures?
m Move the Clavinova to an appropriate location.
● Does the Clavinova make a rattling noise when you shake it?
m Tighten all screws.
● Does the pedal box rattle or give way when you step on the
pedals?
m Turn the adjuster so that it is set firmly against the floor.
● Are the pedal and power cords inserted securely into the
sockets?
m Check the connection.
● If the main unit creaks or is otherwise unsteady when you play
on the keyboard, refer to the assembly diagrams and retighten
all screws.
● After assembly is complete, it will be necessary to remove the
keyboard string. This procedure is performed once only and the
string will never have to be reattached again. For instructions on
its removal, refer to the paper titled "REQUEST" that can be
found on the keys underneath the key cover (see page 10).
