Page 14: Pitch Control
Pitch Control 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. -

Page 16: Using The Recorder
Using the Recorder The CLP-154S/155 features a two-track recorder that lets you record what you play on the keyboard and then play it back. Since you have two tracks, you can “overdub” one part on top of another, using a differ- ent voice if you like, to create complex, rich-sounding recordings. -
Page 17: Changing The Initial Settings
If you want to keep your recorded data for longer periods, turn the power on briefly at least once a week. It is also possible to store it to an external MIDI stor- age device such as the Yamaha DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit by using the Bulk Dump function described on page 20. -

“play” the corresponding note(s) whenever note and velocity data is received from an external MIDI device. Program Change Numbers The CLP-154S transmits a MIDI program change number between 0 and 5, and the CLP-155 transmits a MIDI program change number between 0 and 7 when one of its voice selectors is pressed.

Page 20: 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. -
Page 21: Control Change On/Off
MIDI Functions Control Change ON/OFF 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. -
Page 22: 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 DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit. -
Page 23: Transmitting The Panel Settings (Clp-155 Only)
