About the Yamaha Style File Format

The Style File Format is Yamaha's original auto-accompaniment for-
mat, which has evolved through years of development and refinement.
The Style File Format features a unique conversion system that allows
you to play exceptionally high-quality accompaniments with a variety of
chord types. In addition to the internal styles, the Style File Format lets
you use other sophisticated styles from optional Style File disks, as well
as styles that were created and saved to disk in the Custom Style mode.

Loading Styles from a Disk

Z Insert a disk.
...........................................................................................................
Insert a disk containing style files into the disk drive. The [DISK IN
USE] lamp will light briefly while the Clavinova reads and identifies the
disk. When a Style File disk is inserted, the STYLE FILE LOAD display
(see step 2 below) will appear automatically.
If the disk is already inserted and the STYLE FILE LOAD display is
not showing, press the [DISK/CUSTOM] button to open the DISK/
CUSTOM STYLE display, then press the LOAD SINGLE button.

Style files created for Clavinova models
prior to the CVP-109/107/105/700 may
have slightly different formats. If you try
loading such files, the data may not play
back as expected. (This also applies to
the use of CVP-109/107/105/700 style
data by earlier-model Clavinovas.)
If a disk containing both song data and
style files is inserted, the SONG PLAY
display will automatically appear. If this
happens, press the [SONG] button or the
[EXIT] button to return to the main dis-
play, then press the [DISK/CUSTOM]
button.
