2. Select the first voice and MIDI transmit channel number,
then record the first part on the EMQ-1.
3. Activate the Clavinova Multi-Timbre mode, then select a
new MIDI transmit channel and voice and record the second
part on the EMQ-1 using its overdubbing function.
4. While still in the Multi-Timbre mode, select the third MIDI
transmit channel and voice and record the third part on the
EMQ-1 using its overdubbing function.
5. Still in the Multi-Timbre mode, play back the EMQ-1. The
recorded parts will be played back using the individual voices
selected during recording, providing a full ensemble sound.
The Split & Left Local OFF Mode
In the split mode one section of the Clavinova keyboard is used
to play a Clavinova voice in the normal way, while the remain-
ing section is used to play a second MIDI keyboard or tone
generator such as the Yamaha EMT-1 FM Sound Box or EMT-10
AWM Sound Box. In this mode the right-hand section of the
keyboard is used to play an internal Clavinova voice, while
the left-hand section of the keyboard plays the external keyboard
or tone generator. Playing the left-hand section of the keyboard
produces no sound from the Clavinova. The ''split point," or
the key that divides the left- and right-hand sections of the
keyboard can be set at any desired key.
The split mode is useful if, for example, you want to play a
piano (Clavinova) voice with the right hand while playing a
synthesizer bass line or string section with the left hand.
'When the split mode is activated, notes played on the left-hand
section are transmitted via the Clavinova MIDI OUT connector
on MIDI channel 2. Notes played on the right-hand section are
transmitted on the "basic channel" (i.e. the channel set using
the MIDI channel selection function described previously).

Activating the Split & Left Local OFF Mode & Selecting the
Split Point
1. Hold down the TRANSPOSER/MIDI button, then press
and hold down the HARPSICHORD 1 (CELESTA on the
CLP-570) voice selector. The HARPSICHORD 1 (CELESTA)
LED indicator will flash.
2. Press the key on the keyboard at which you wish to set the
split point. The HARPSICHORD 1 (CELESTA) LED will
light continuously. The split-point key becomes the first key
of the left-hand section.
3. Release the split point key.
4. Release the TRANSPOSER/MIDI button and HARP-
SICHORD 1 (CELESTA) voice selector.
5. To return to the normal full-keyboard mode, hold the
TRANSPOSER/MIDI button and press the HARPSICHORD
1 (CELESTA) voice selector, then release both buttons.
Note: When the power is initially turned ON the default split
point key —B2— will be automatically selected. If a new
split point is selected it remains active until the power is
turned OFF or a different split point is selected.
The Split & Right Local Off Mode
In the CLP-670 and CLP-570 either the right- or left-hand sec-
tion of the keyboard can be assigned to control an external
keyboard or tone generator. Assigning the left-hand section to
external tone generator control was described in the previous
section. To assign the right-hand section to external tone genera-
tor control while playing the Clavinova voices with the left
hand, press the HARPSICHORD 2 (VIBES on the CLP-570)
voice selector instead of the HARPSICHORD 1 (CELESTA
on the CLP-570) voice selector when activating the Split mode
(See ""Activating the Split & Left Local OFF Mode & Selecting
the Split Point'' in the previous section). All other operations
are exactly the same as described in the previous section.
Transmitting the Panel Settings
This function causes all the current Clavinova control 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 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.
* The Yamaha EMQ-1 Memory Box automatically receives and
records the Clavinova panel settings when a recording is begun,
so this function is most useful with MIDI sequence recorders
other than the EMQ-1.
1. Hold down the TRANSPOSER/MIDI button.
2. Press the CELESTA (GUITAR on the CLP-570) voice selector.
3. Release the TRANSPOSER/MIDI button.
| 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 Turned ON
Is the AC plug properly connected to an AC wall outlet? Check
the AC connection carefully. Is the MASTER VOLUME
control turned up to a reasonable listening level?
2. The Clavinova Reproduces Radio or TV Sound
This can occur if there is a high-power transmitter in your
vicinity. Contact your Yamaha dealer.
3. Intermittent Static Noise
This is usually due to turning ON or OFF a household appli-
ance or other electronic equipment which is fed by the same
AC mains line as your Clavinova.
4. 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 away from the affected equipment, or vice versa.
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 setting of
the Clavinova volume control to a level at which the distor-
tion ceases.
