IMPORTANT АР VIC CR
What to do if..
1) The units is not activated when the power is turned on. Check
the following.
Is the AC plug fully connected to a wall power outlet?
Connect it again to make sure. Is power supplied from
the outlet? If the outlet is live, but the Clavinova does
not work, unplug the cord and contact your Yamaha
Clavinova dealer.
2) The Clavinova reproduces radio or TV signals.
This can occur if there is a powerful transmitter such as
a radio station located in your vicinity. Contact your
Yamaha Clavinova dealer.
3) Occasional unpleasant static occurs.
In the majority of such cases, the cause can be traced to
the turning on or off of some household appliance.
4) The Clavinova interferes with radio or TV reception.
The high frequency pulses used by the Clavinova may
adversely affect TV or radio reception. Please read
"FCC CERTIFICATION" (page 16) for additional
information.
5) The sound of the Clavinova is distorted when connected to an
auxiliary speaker system.
When connected to an AUX. speaker system, (home
stereo, guitar amplifier, etc.) distortion may occur when
the keys are played forcefully while either the volume of
the Clavinova or its auxiliary system is too high. In addi-
tion, damage to the speakers could result. Please turn the
volume down to a level where no distortion occurs.

Clavinova Connection With
Other MIDI Instruments ШШШ
In the following section you will see how you can actually
connect your Clavinova with other MIDI instruments.
W Playing the Clavinova in ensemble with other keyboards
(Example: connected with the PortaTone)
MIDI OUT
ШШ ШТ ТЇ
Clavinova PortaTone
As shown in the illustration above, when the MIDI OUT
on the Clavinova is connected to the MIDI IN on the
PortaTone it is possible to produce sound from the
PortaTone while playing just the Clavinova. In other words,
the information produced by pressing the Clavinova
keyboard is instantaneously transmitted to the PortaTone,
producing a richer sound. It is also possible to utilize
different voices on each instrument. For example, it is
possible to combine a piano voice on the Clavinova with the
strings voice on the PortaTone so that a solo performer can
give a performance similar to a piano concerto. This is just
one of the many possible combinations. You can also
connect the MIDI OUT terminal of the PortaTone to the
MIDI IN terminal of the Clavinova and play both instru-
ments from the PortaTone keyboard.

Clavinova Music Computer
You can get further pleasure from your Clavinova by
playing it with a personal computer instead of playing the
keys yourself. Whether you use a music software package or
program your own software, the Clavinova can be played
automatically. In this case, the voices can be freely selected
on the control panel to match the mood of the music.
