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.
• 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

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 bo, 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 cs and then use the br (10-key) [4] ( )
and [6] ( ) keys to display “Touch” (page
E-6).
2. Use br (10-key) [–] and [+] keys to select one of
the three Touch Response sensitivity settings.
1. Press cs and then use the br (10-key) [4] ( )
and [6] ( ) keys to display “OTHER” (page
E-6).
2. Press br (10-key) [7] (ENTER) key.
3. Use the br (10-key) [4] ( ) and [6] ( ) keys
to display “Contrast”.
4. Use the br (10-key) [–] and [+] keys to adjust the
contrast.
• The contrast setting range is 01 to 17.

The metronome lets you play and practice along with a steady
beat to help keep you on tempo.
1. Press 6.
This starts the metronome.
2. Press 6again 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 6until 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 6.
2. Use br (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.
Use the following procedure to change the tempo of the
metronome.
1. Press bn.
Use y(slower) and t(faster) to change the tempo
setting. Holding down either button changes the setting at
high speed.
• Pressing tand yat the same time will initialize the
tempo setting in accordance with the currently selected
song or rhythm.
• Pressing bn causes the tempo value to flash on the
display. While the tempo value is flashing, you can use
br (10-key) to change it.
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-40.
• For information about changing the song volume, see page
E-28.
• You cannot adjust the balance between the metronome
and note volume during Auto Accompaniment and built-in
tune play.

Octave Shift lets you raise or lower the pitch of the keyboard
notes in octave units.
• The octave shift setting range is –2 to +2 octaves.
• When using Split (page E-13), you can individually set the
left and right keyboard ranges to the pitches you want.
1. Keep pressing cp until the screen shown below
appears on the display.
If you want to use Split, turn on Split before pressing cp.
• If you do not perform any operation for a few seconds
after this screen appears, the display will return to the
previous screen automatically.
2. Use the br (10-key) [–] and [+] keys to shift the
octave.
3. Press cp.
4. Press cp again.
You can use the pitch bend wheel to slide the pitch of notes
smoothly upwards and downwards. This technique makes it
possible to produce effects that are similar to sounds
produced when bending notes on a saxophone or electric
guitar.
1. While playing a note on the
keyboard, rotate the pitch bend
wheel on the left of the keyboard
upwards or downwards.
The amount the note bends depends on how
much you rotate the pitch bend wheel.
• Do not have the pitch bend wheel rotated
as you turn on the Digital Keyboard.
Use the following procedure to specify how much the pitch of
the note changes whenever the pitch bend wheel is rotated
upwards or downwards. You can specify a range from 0 to 12
semitones (one octave).
1. Press cs and then use the br (10-key) [4] ( )
and [6] ( ) keys to display “OTHER” (page
E-6).
2. Press br (10-key) [7] (ENTER) key.
3. Use the br (10-key) [4] ( ) and [6] ( ) keys
to display “Bend Rng”.
4. Use the br (10-key) [–] and [+] keys to change
the range.
Octave Shift
• Split On : This step affects the right side keyboard
range only.
• Split Off : This step affects the entire keyboard range.
• Split On : The screen shown below will appear. Use the
br (10-key) [–] and [+] keys to shift the
octave for the left side keyboard range.
• Split Off : The screen shown below will appear.

Sampling Sounds and Playing Them on the Digital
Keyboard
You can use the Digital Keyboard to sample a sound from a
portable audio player, or other device, and then play the
sound with keyboard keys. For example, you could sample
the bark of your dog and then use the sound in a melody. You
also can sample and use passages from a CD. The sampling
feature is a great way to create new sounds that are highly
creative.
• Turn off the external device and the Digital Keyboard
before connecting them.
1. Connect an external device to the Digital
Keyboard.
• Connection requires commercially available connecting
cords, supplied by you. Connecting cords should have a
stereo mini plug on one end and a plug that matches the
configuration of the external device on the other end.
2. Turn down the volume levels of the external
device and the Digital Keyboard.
3. Turn on the external device and then the Digital
Keyboard.
• Sampled sounds are recorded in monaural.

Sampling Sounds and Playing Them on the Digital Keyboard
E-18
Use the procedures in this section to sample a sound and play
it as the melody part on the Digital Keyboard.
• Up to five sampled sounds can be stored in Digital
Keyboard memory as tone numbers 671 through 675 (CTK-
4000: 571 through 575). Simply select the tone number
where the sound you want is located to assign the sound to
the keyboard.
1. Press bo and then use br (10-key) to enter the
tone number (CTK-5000: 671 to 675) (CTK-4000:
571 to 575) where you want to store the
sampled sound.
• In place of the above steps, you could press cr and bo at
the same time and then select a tone number.
2. Press cr.
This enters sampling standby.
The allowable sampling time (in seconds) will appear on
the display momentarily and then the display will change
to the following.
3. Output the sound from the external device.
Sampling will start automatically.
4. After the sound you want to sample is finished,
press cr.
Sampling will stop when you release cr.
• Even if you do not press cr, sampling will stop
automatically whenever there is no more sound being
input from the external device. Sampling also will stop
automatically 10 seconds after it is started.
5. Play something on the Digital Keyboard.
• You may not be able to get 10 seconds of sampling if
Digital Keyboard memory is low due to storage of other
data. If this happens, deleting other memory data you no
longer need will free up memory space and you should be
able to sample for 10 seconds. See “Deleting a Sampled
Sound” on page E-23 for more information.
• Sampling sound and storing it will delete any sound
data currently stored under the same tone number. To
help ensure that you do not accidentally delete
important data, be sure to read “Protecting Against
Accidental Deletion of Sampled Sounds” on page E-24.
