IMPORTANT
Check Your Power Supply
Make sure that your local AC mains
voltage matches the voltage speci-
fied on the name plate on the bottom
panel. In some areas a voltage se-
lector 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 se-
lector dial so that the correct voltage
appears next to the pointer on the
panel.
WICHTIG
Netzspannung überprüfen
Vergewissern Sie sich vor dem An-
schließen an das Stromnetz, daß die
örtliche Netzspannung den Betriebs-
spannungswerten auf dem Typenschild
an der Unterseite des Instruments ent-
spricht. In bestimmten Verkaufs-
gebieten ist das Instrument mit einem
Spannungswähler an der Unterseite
neben der Netzkabeldurchführung aus-
gestattet. Falls vorhanden, muß der
Spannungswähler auf die örtliche Netz-
spannung eingestellt werden. Der
Spannungswähler wurde werkseitig auf
240 V voreingestellt. Zum Verstellen
drehen Sie den Spannungsregler mit
einem Schlitzschraubendreher, bis der
Zeiger auf den korrekten Spannungs-
wert weist
IMPORTANT
Vérifiez la source d'alimentation
Vérifiez que la tension spécifiée sur
le panneau arrière correspond à la
tension du secteur. Dans certaines
régions, l'instrument peut être équipé
d'un sélecteur de tension situé sur
le panneau inférieur du clavier à
proximité du cordon d'alimentation.
Vérifiez que ce sélecteur est bien
réglé en fonction de la tension sec-
teur de votre région. Le sélecteur de
tension est réglé sur 240 V au dé-
part d'usine. Pour modifier ce ré-
glage, utilisez un tournevis à lame
plate pour tourner le sélecteur afin
de mettre l'indication correspondant
à la tension de votre région vis à vis
du repère triangulaire situé sur le
panneau.
IMPORTANTE
Compruebe la alimentación de su área
Asegúrese de que tensión de alimen-
tación de CA de su área correspon-
de con la tensión especificada en la
placa de características del panel
inferior de la unidad del teclado prin-
cipal, cerca del cable de alimenta-
ción. Asegúrese de que el selector
de tensión esté ajustado a la tensión
de su área. El selector de tensión
se ajusta a 240V cuando la unidad
sale de fábrica. Para cambiar el ajus-
te, emplee un destornillador de ca-
beza "recta" para girar el selector de
modo que aparezca la tensión co-
rrecta al lado del indicador del pa-
nel.

  • Page 93: The Utility Functions

    The Utility Functions The “utility functions” described in this chapter include keyboard, disk, MIDI, and general functions that significantly enhance the versatility and flexibility of the CVP-79A/69/69A/59S. All of the utility functions are selected and set in the same way for consistent, easy operation: Press the [FUNCTION] button so that its indicator lights.
  • Page 94: Keyboard

    Keyboard Transpose The Transpose function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of two octaves (from –24 through 0 to +24). “Transposing” the pitch of the Clavinova keyboard makes it easier to play in difficult key signatures, and you can simply match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instrumentalist.
  • Page 95: Sound

    The Utility Functions Sound Tune The Tune function makes it possible to tune the Clavinova over about a 26-Hertz ( 100-cent) range in 0.2-Hertz intervals. A hun- dred “cents” equals one semitone, so the tuning range provided allows fine tuning of overall pitch over a range of approximately a semitone. This function is useful for tuning the Clavinova to match other instru- ments or recorded music.

    BREAK function, refer to the “Accompaniment” sec- tion, page 32. Sostenuto The left pedal functions in the same way as the CVP- (CVP-59S only) 79A/69/69A sostenuto pedal (see page 26). Damper Range Determines whether the damper pedal affects the right-hand, left- hand, or both voices in a split setup.
  • Page 97: Midi 1

    The Utility Functions Damper Mode (CVP-79A only) Sets the damper pedal for on/off or continuous operation (refer to page 26). Press the DAMPER MODE LCD button to alternately select the continuous and switch modes. CONT. Continuous damper pedal operation. (Default.) SWITCH On/off damper pedal operation.
  • Page 98: Midi 2

    Local Control ON/OFF “Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the Clavinova key- board 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.
  • Page 99 The Utility Functions Program Normally the Clavinova will respond to MIDI program change num- bers received from an external keyboard or other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly numbered Multi-Timbre mode 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 num- bered voice or program to be selected on the external MIDI device if the...
