Style
Style playback does not start.
• Make sure to press the STYLE CONTROL [START/STOP]
button.
• MIDI Clock may be set to "EXTERNAL." Make sure this is
set to "INTERNAL" (page 198).
Only the rhythm channel plays.
• Make sure the Auto Accompaniment function is turned
on; press the [ACMP ON/OFF] button.
• You may be playing keys in the right hand range of the
keyboard. Make sure to play keys in the chord range of
the keyboard.
Styles cannot be selected.
• If the size of the Style data is large (120 KB or greater),
the Style cannot be selected because the data is too large
to be ready by the instrument.
The desired chord is not recognized or output by the
auto accompaniment.
• You may not be playing the correct keys for indicating
the chord. Refer to "Chord Types Recognized in the Fin-
gered Mode" of the separate Data List.
• You may be playing the keys according to a different fin-
gering mode, and not the one currently selected. Check
the accompaniment mode, and play the keys according
to the selected mode (page 102).
Synchro Stop cannot be turned on.
• Synchro Stop cannot be turned on when the fingering
mode is set to "Full Keyboard" or "AI Full Keyboard," or
when Style On/Off is set to off. Make sure the fingering
mode is set to something besides "Full Keyboard" or "Al
Full Keyboard" and set Style On/Off to on.
Auto accompaniment chords are recognized regard-
less of the split point or where chords are played on
the keyboard.
• This is normal if the fingering mode is set to "Full Key-
board" or "AI Full Keyboard." If either of these is
selected, chords are recognized over the entire range of
the keyboard, irrespective of the split point setting. If
desired, select a different fingering mode (page 102).
When playing back one Style and selecting another,
the newly selected Style doesn't play at the proper
Tempo.
• This is normal; the Tempo setting remains constant when
changing Styles.
Starting a Song while playing back a Style stops Style
playback.
This is because Song playback has priority. The two ways
shown below let you play back a Style and Song simulta-
neously.
• Set the Song to Synchro Start standby, then start the
Style.
• Start the Style playback after playing back a Song.
The level balance of the various Parts becomes wrong
or unexpected sounds are output when selecting a
Style or a Voice after selecting a Song.
• The level balance of the Parts can change and unex-
pected sounds can be produced because of the effects
applied to each Part.
The "Off" setting is not shown for the Play Type
parameter in the Assembly (Style Creator) feature.
• The selected section is set to record enable. Release the
recording assignment by pressing the appropriate [1†]–
[8†] button in the recording channel display (TAB [√]
button → BASIC tab → [F] REC CH).
The channels BASS-PHR2 cannot be edited in Channel
Edit.
• This is normal; BASS-PHR2 channels of the Preset Styles
cannot be edited.
Registration memory
The Song/Style registered to the Registration Mem-
ory cannot be called up.
• If the registered Song/Style is contained on external
media such as SmartMedia card and the media is not
inserted or connected to the instrument, the Song/Style
cannot be called up. Insert or connect the appropriate
media containing the Song/Style data.
The order for calling up Registration Memory settings
is not shown on the Registration Sequence setting
display.
• The bank containing the Registration has not been
selected. Select the appropriate bank (page 126).
When using the Freeze function of the Registration
Memory, the On/Off setting of the Left Part does not
change even when changing the Registration Mem-
ory setting.
• The Left Part On/Off setting is included in the Style
group. Remove the checkmark from "STYLE" in the
Freeze setting display (page 127).
Even though a Registration Memory setting contain-
ing a User/Card voice is selected, the File Selection
display shows a Preset Voice.
• This is normal; even with the Preset Voice shown, the
actual sounding Voice is the selected User/Card Voice.
When a User/Card Voice is saved to the User/Card drive,
the actual data is divided into two separate types: 1) the
source Preset Voice itself, and 2) the parameter settings
as set in the Sound Creator. When you recall a Registra-
tion Memory setting containing a User/Card Voice, the
Clavinova selects the Preset voice (on which the User/
Card Voice is based), then applies the relevant parameter
settings to it—so that your original User/Card Voice is
sounded.
