Getting Ready to Play
Either an AC adaptor or batteries can be used to power this
Digital Keyboard. Normally, use of AC adaptor power is
recommended.
• The AC adaptor does not come with this Digital Keyboard.
Purchase it separately from your retailer. See page E-3 for
information about options.
Use the AC adaptor when you want to power the Digital
Keyboard from a household electrical outlet.
Specified AC Adaptor: AD-5
• Be sure to turn off Digital Keyboard power before
connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.
• Be sure to turn off power before loading batteries.
• It is up to you to prepare six commercially available
D-size batteries. Do not use oxyride batteries or any
other nickel based batteries.
1. Open the battery cover on the bottom of the
Digital Keyboard.
2. Load six D-size batteries into the battery
compartment.
Make sure the positive +and negative -ends of the
batteries are facing as shown in the illustration.
3. Insert the tabs of the battery cover into the
holes on the side of the battery compartment,
and close the cover.
■Low Battery Indication
The indicator shown below starts to flash to let you know
when battery power is low. Replace the batteries with new
ones.

Playing the Digital Keyboard
1. Press 1.
This turns on power.
2. Try playing something on the keyboard. Use 2
to adjust volume.
• Turning off the Digital Keyboard causes most current
settings to be cleared. The Digital Keyboard will revert
to initial settings the next time you turn it on.
• This is true for all settings except for sample sound
protection. Once you turn it on it remains on until you
turn it off again.
While you are using batteries for power, power will turn off
automatically if you do not perform any operation for about six
minutes. Auto Power Off is disabled while the AC adaptor is
being used for power.
■Disabling Auto Power Off
You can disable Auto Power Off to ensure that power is not
turned off automatically during a concert, etc.
1. While holding down bp, turn on power.
Auto Power Off will be disabled.
Using headphones cuts off output from the built-in speakers,
which means you can practice playing even late at night
without disturbing others.
• Be sure to turn down the volume level before connecting
headphones.
• Headphones do not come with the Digital Keyboard.
• Use commercially available headphones. See page E-3 for
information about options.
• Do not listen to very high volume output over
headphones for long period. Doing so creates the risk
of hearing damage.
• If you are using headphones that require an adaptor
plug, make sure you do not leave the adaptor plugged
in when removing the headphones.

Touch Response alters tone volume in accordance with
keyboard pressure (speed). This provides you some of the
same expressivity you get on an acoustic piano.
■Sound intensity depends on the speed that keys
are pressed.
People normally believe that the stronger the pressure applied
to a piano keyboard, the louder the sound. Actually, however,
the intensity of the notes played depends on the speed at
which keys are pressed. Notes are louder when keys are
pressed quickly, and quieter when keys are pressed slowly.
Keeping this in mind as you play a keyboard musical
instrument lets you control note volume without striving to
apply too much pressure with your fingertips.
■The playability of an acoustic piano
Your Digital Keyboard provides you with key touch that is the
next best thing to an acoustic piano. Note volume changes
automatically in accordance with key press speed.
Use the procedure below to control how much the volume of
played notes change in accordance with playing speed.
Select the setting that best matches your playing style.
1. Press ct and then use the bs (10-key) [4] (o)
and [6] (p) keys to display “Touch” (page
E-6).
2. Use bs (10-key) [–] and [+] keys to select one of
the three Touch Response sensitivity settings.
1. Press ct and then use the bs (10-key) [4] (o)
and [6] (p) keys to display “OTHER” (page
E-6).
2. Press bs (10-key) [7] (ENTER) key.
3. Use the bs (10-key) [4] (o) and [6] (p) keys
to display “Contrast”.
4. Use the bs (10-key) [–] and [+] keys to adjust the
contrast.
• The contrast setting range is 01 to 17.

You can use the voice pads to sound various sound effects or
even sounds you have sampled (page E-19). Use the voice
pads to add something extra to your performances.
1. Press bq.
2. Press cs and ct at the same time to enable the
voice pads.
•Pressing
cs and ct at the same time again will disable
the voice pads.
• Be sure to make sure the voice pad function is enabled
before performing the next step. While voice pads are
disabled, buttons bt through co function as
registration memory buttons (page E-48). Performing
the following step with voice pads disabled will change
the setup of the keyboard (tone number, rhythm
number, etc.).
3. Press a voice pad (1 through 5, ck through co)
to sound what is assigned to it.
There are four sets of voice pad sounds numbered
1 through 4 (see below). Each press of bt cycles through
sound sets 1 through 4.
Example: When Set 2 is selected
• While a sound set number is displayed, you can change it
using bs (10-key). If you do not perform any operation for a
few seconds after the indicator appears, the display will
return to the previous screen automatically.

After performing melody sampling to tone number 571
through 575, the corresponding tones are replaced with the
samples in Sets 1, 2, and 3 of the voice pads described in the
previous section. For more information about melody
sampling, see page E-20.
• Deleting sampled data will return the Voice Pads to their
default sounds. For more information about deleting
sampled data, see page E-25.
You can use the following procedure to adjust the volume
levels of the voice pad sounds to match them to other sounds
(keyboard, etc.).
1. Enable the voice pads.
• See steps 1 and 2 of the procedure on page E-11.
2. While holding down bt, hold down the voice
pad (ck through co) whose volume you want to
adjust.
• Keep bt and the voice pad depressed as you perform
the next step.
Example: To select cl (Pad 2).
3. While still holding down the two buttons, keep
pressing and releasing any keyboard key.
• Each press of the keyboard key will sound the tone
assigned to the voice pad. As you listen to the tone,
adjust its volume by altering the speed at which you are
pressing the keyboard key. Pressing at a faster rate will
raise the volume, while a slower rate will lower the
volume.
4. After the tone is at the volume you want, release
the two buttons you depressed in step 2.
• You can batch adjust the volume level of more than one
voice pad by holding down more than one voice pad along
with bt in step 2 above.
The metronome lets you play and practice along with a steady
beat to help keep you on tempo.
1. Press 7.
This starts the metronome.
2. Press 7again to stop the metronome.
You can configure the metronome to use a bell sound for the
first beat of each measure of the song you are playing.
• You can specify 0, or a value from 2 to 6 as the number of
beat per measure.
• When playing a built-in song, the beats per measure setting
(which determines when the bell sounds) is configured
automatically for the currently selected song.
1. Hold down 7until the beats per measure
setting screen appears on the display.
• If you do not perform any operation for a few seconds
after the beats per measure setting screen appears, the
display will return to the screen displayed before you
pressed 7.
2. Use bs (10-key) to enter the number of beats
per measure.
• The bell will not sound if you specify 0 for this setting. In
this case, all beats are indicated by a click sound. This
setting lets you practice with a steady beat, without
worrying how many beats there are in each measure.

Note that you must input leading zeros, so 89 is input
as 089.
• The tempo value will stop flashing if you do not perform
any operation for a short while.
The metronome volume setting is changed automatically with
the volume level of the currently selected Auto
Accompaniment or song. The metronome volume cannot be
adjusted independently.
• For information about changing the Auto Accompaniment
volume, see page E-42.
