TAKING CARE OF YOUR
CLAVINOVA
Your Clavinova is a fine musical instrument, and deserves the
most careful treatment. Observe the following points and your
Clavinova will sound and look great for many years.
1. Never open the case and touch or tamper with the internal
circuitry.
2. Always turn the POWER switch OFF after use, and cover
the keyboard with the built-in key cover.
3. Clean the cabinet and keys of your Clavinova only with a:
clean, slightly damp cloth. A neutral cleanser may be used
if desired. Never use abrasive cleansers, waxes, solvents or
chemical dust cloths since these can dull or damage the finish.
4. Never place any vinyl products on your Clavinova. Contact
with vinyl can cause irreversable damage to the finish.
5. Install your Clavinova in a place that is away from direct
sunlight, excessive humidity or heat.
a
Never apply excessive force to the controls, connectors or
other parts of your Clavinova, and avoid scratching or
bumping it with hard objects.
THE CONTROLS AND
CONNECTORS
@ POWER Switch
Press the POWER switch once to turn the power ON, a
second time to turn the power OFF. When the power is
initially turned ON, the PIANO 1 voice selector LED will
light.
@ MASTER VOLUME Control
The MASTER VOLUME control adjusts the volume (level)
of sound produced by the Clavinova. The MASTER VOLUME
control also adjusts headphone volume when a pair of head-
phones is plugged into the HEADPHONE jack (ij).
®© TRANSPOSER/MIDI Button
The TRANSPOSER/MIDI button allows access to the
Clavinova's TRANSPOSE function (to shift the pitch of
the entire keyboard up or down) and MIDI functions. For
details refer to the *'TRANSPOSITION" and ‘MIDI
FUNCTIONS” sections on pages 13 and 14, respectively.
@ Voice Selectors
The CLP-570 has seven voice selectors and the CLP-670
has ten. Simply press any of the voice selectors to select the
corresponding voice. The LED indicator above the voice
selector will light to indicate which voice is currently selected.
Note: The PIANO 1 voice is automatically selected whenever the
POWER switch is initially turned ON.
@) BRILLIANCE Control
This control can be used to change the tonality or ‘‘timbre’’
of the selected voice. It has three settings: MELLOW, center
(NORMAL) and BRIGHT. The center setting produces the
*“*normal” tone of the selected voice. If you want a brighter
or *'sharper"' tone, slide the control to the BRIGHT position.
For a “rounder” more mellow tone, slide the control to the
MELLOW position.
Note: The BRILLIANCE control has no intermediate settings. If you
slide the control to a position between one of it’s three
settings, the sound of the last setting will be retained.
(6) REVERB Control
The REVERB control provides a number of digital effects
that you can use for extra depth and expressive power.
Simply slide the REVERB control to the required position:
OFF
No effect is produced.

12
PEDAL
In this position a subtle-but-warm reverb effect is added to
the sound whenever the damper pedal is pressed.
ROOM
This setting add a continuous reverb effect to the sound that
is similar to the type of acoustic reverberation you would
hear in a medium-size room.
HALL
For a really spacious reverb sound, use the HALL setting.
This effect simulates the natural reverberation of a large
concert hall.
COSMIC
“COSMIC” is an echo effect in which the sound seems to
“bounce” around in the stereo sound field.
@ EFFECT Control (CLP-670 only)
The EFFECT control provides a range of four effects that
you can use in addition to the REVERB effects. Please note
that when any of these effects is selected the Clavinova pro-
vides 16-note polyphony rather than the maximum 32 notes.
Simply slide the EFFECT control to the required position:
OFF
No effect is produced.
PAN
This effect causes the Clavinova sound to sweep back and
forth between its stereo speaker systems.
DETUNE
DETUNE delivers a thick, multi-instrument sound by produc-
ing two notes of slightly different pitch for every single note
you play on the keyboard—i.e. the two notes are slightly
““detuned.””
TREMOLO
TREMOLO is a gentle variation in volume that gives the sound
a more dynamic feel.
DUAL
The DUAL effect actually makes it possible to play two voices
simultaneously across the entire range of the keyboard. The
voices combined when DUAL is activated are normally the last
two voices selected (the voice selected first is played via the
right speaker and the voice selected last is played via the left
speaker). For example, if you press the PIANO 1 voice selec-
tor and then the VIBES voice selector, and then set the EF-
FECT control to DUAL, The PIANO 1 and VIBES LEDs will
both light and both voices will be played simultaneously—
PIANO 1 from the right speaker and VIBES from the left.
If another voice selector—say CELESTA—is pressed while
DUAL is active, the newly selected voice (CELESTA) will be
combined with the previously selected voice (VIBES in this ex-
ample). If the EFFECT control is then set to OFF, the last
voice selected (CELESTA in this example) will be selected.
* Here are some examples of how the DUAL logic works:
1. If you select these voices in this order:
PIANO 1-+E.PIANO 1—HARPSICHORD 1
and then set the EFFECT control to DUAL, the E.PIANO 1
and HARPSICHORD 1 voices will be played simultaneously.
2. If you select these voices in this order:
PIANO 1>E.PIANO 1>E.PIANO 1
and then set the EFFECT control to DUAL, the PIANO 1 and
E.PIANO 1 voices will be played simultaneously.
3. If the EFFECT control is already set to DUAL and you select
these voice in this order:
PIANO 1>E.PIANO 1—HARPSICHORD 1,
the E.PIANO 1 and HARPSICHORD 1 voices will be played
simultaneously.
4. ff the EFFECT control is already set to DUAL and you select
these voices in this order:
PIANO 1—E.PIANO 1-E.PIANO 1,
the E.PIANO 1 voice will be selected twice! The result is
that you'll hear only the E.PIANO 1 voice, and polyphony
will be 16 notes rather than the maximum 32.
Note: If the EFFECT control is set to DUAL immediately after
turning the power ON, the PIANO 1 and PIANO 2 voices
will be combined.
Soft Pedal
Pressing the soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes
the timbre of notes played.
@ Sostenuto Pedal
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the
sostenuto pedal while the note(s) are held, those notes will be
sustained as long as the pedal is held (as if the damper pedal
had
been
pressed)
but
all
subsequently
played
notes
will
not
be sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for
example, while other notes are played ‘‘staccato.”’

console or a tape recorder.
Note: The AUX OUT jack signal must never be returned to the
OPTIONAL IN jacks, either directly or through external
equipment. Always use the OPTIONAL IN and OUT jacks
when connecting EM-series or other Yamaha peripheral
equipment.
MIDI IN, THRU and OUT Connectors
The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external
MIDI device (such as the EMQ-1 Memory Box) which can
be used to control the Clavinova. The MIDI THRU connector
re-transmits any data received at the MIDI IN connector,
allowing ““chaining”” of several MIDI instruments or other
devices. The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI data
generated by the Clavinova (e.g. note and velocity data
produced by playing the Clavinova keyboard).
More details on MIDI are given in “MIDI FUNCTIONS”
on page 14.
| PREPARATION
Check your power supply
Make sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the
voltage specified on the name plate on the rear panel. In some
areas a voltage selector may be provided on the rear panel
of the main unit. Make sure that the voltage selector is set for
the voltage in your area.
The music stand
If you will be using sheet music with your Clavinova, raise
the music stand built into it's top panel by lifting the rear
edge of the music stand, then flip down the music stand braces
and engage them with the corresponding recesses.
The music stand can be lowered after slightly lifting it and
folding the two brackets which support it against the back
of the stand.
Name Plate Location
The nameplate is located on the rear panel.

TRANSPOSITION
The Clavinova's TRANSPOSER function makes it possible
to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in semitone
intervals up to a maximum of six semitones. ‘‘Transposing”?
the pitch of the Clavinova keyboard makes it easier to play in
difficult key signatures, and you can simply match the pitch
of the keyboard to the range of.a singer or other instrumentalist.
The TRANSPOSER/MIDI button and keys F#s through F#6
on the keyboard are used for transposition.

| MIDI FUNCTIONS
A Brief Introduction to MIDI
MIDI, the Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a world-
standard communication interface that allows MIDI-compatible
musical instruments and equipment to share musical information
and control one another. This makes it possible to create
“systems” of MIDI instruments and equipment that offer far
greater versatility and control than is available with isolated
instruments. For example, most MIDI keyboards (including the
Clavinova, of course) transmit note and velocity (touch response)
information via the MIDI OUT connector whenever a note is
played on the keyboard. If the MIDI OUT connector is connect-
ed to the MIDI IN connector of a second keyboard (synthesizer,
etc.) or a tone generator such as the Yamaha EMT-1 FM Sound
Box (essentially a synthesizer with no keyboard), the second
keyboard or tone generator will respond precisely to notes
played on the original transmitting keyboard. The result is that
you can effectively play two instruments at once, providing
thick multi-instrument sounds.
MIDI Cable
This same type of musical information transfer is used for MIDI
sequence recording. A sequence recorder such as the Yamaha
EMQ-1 Memory Box can be used to ‘‘record’’ MIDI data
received from a Clavinova, for example. When the recorded
data is played back, the Clavinova automatically ‘‘plays’’ the
recorded performance in precise detail.
Data Being Recorded
Playback Data
EMO-1 Memory Box
a
The examples given above really only scratch the surface. MIDI
can do much, much more. The CLP-670 and CLP-570 offer a
number of MIDI functions that allow them to be used in fairly
sophisticated MIDI systems.
Note: Always use a high-quality MIDI cable to connect MIDI OUT
to MIDI IN terminals. Never use MIDI cables longer than about
15 feet, since cables longer than this can pick up noise which
can cause data errors.
MIDI “Messages” Transmitted «
Received by the Clavinova
The MIDI information (messages) transmitted and received by
the CLP-670 and CLP-570 Clavinova are as follows:
Note and Velocity Data
This information tells the receiving keyboard or tone generator
to play a certain note (specified by the MIDI note number) at
a certain dynamic level (specified by the MIDI velocity value).
Note and velocity data is transmitted by the Clavinova whenever
a key is pressed, and the Clavinova’s internal AWM tone generator
will “play” the corresponding note(s) whenever note and velocity
data is received from an external MIDI device.
Clavinova
Program Change Numbers
The CLP-670 transmits a MIDI program number between 0
and 9 and the CLP-570 transmits a program change number
between 0 and 6 when one of its voice selectors is pressed.
This normally causes the correspondingly numbered voice
or program to be selected on a receiving MIDI device. The
Clavinova will respond in the same way, automatically select-
ing the appropriate voice when a MIDI program change number
is received. See “Program Change ON/OFF” on page 15 for
information on turning program change number reception and
transmission ON or OFF.
Control Change Numbers
Control Change data representing Soft, Sostenuto and Damper
pedal operations is transmitted by the Clavinova whenever one
of these pedals is used. If the receiving device is a tone generator
or another keyboard, it will respond in the same way as the
Clavinova’s internal tone generator when one of the pedals is
used. The Clavinova also receives and responds to the appropriate
control change data. See “Control Change ON/OFF” on page
15 for information on turning control change number reception
and transmission ON or OFF.
MIDI Transmit & Receive Channel
Selection
The MIDI system allows transmission and reception of MIDI
data on 16 different channels. Multiple channels have been
implemented to allow selective control of certain instruments
or devices connected in series. For example, a single MIDI
sequence recorder could be used to ‘‘play’’ two different instru-
ments or tone generators. One of the instruments or tone genera-
tors could be set to receive only on channel 1, while the other
is set to receive on channel 2. In this situation the first instrument
or tone generator will respond only to channel-1 information
transmitted by the sequence recorder, while the second instrument
or tone generator will respond only to channel-2 information.
This allows the sequence recorder to “play”? two completely
different parts on the receiving instruments or tone generators.

In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitt-
ing and receiving equipment must be matched for proper data
transfer. An “OMNI” receive mode is also available, which
allows reception on all 16 MIDI channels. In the OMNI mode
it is not necessary to match the receive channel of the receiving
device to the the transmit channel of the transmitting device
(except when receiving mode messages).

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. This
situation is “Local Control ON” since the internal tone generator
is controlled locally by its own keyboard.
Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that the Clavinova
keyboard does not play the internal voices, but the appropriate
MIDI information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT
connector when notes are played on the keyboard. At the same
time, the internal tone generator responds to MIDI information
received via the MIDI IN connector. This means that while an
external MIDI sequence recorder such as the Yamaha EMQ-1
: Memory Box, for example, plays the Clavinova’s internal voices,
an external tone generator such as the EMT-1 can be played
from the Clavinova keyboard.

1. Hold down the TRANSPOSER/MIDI button.
2. Press the PIANO 1 voice selector. If the PIANO 1 LED is
lit when the PIANO 1 voice selector is pressed, you have
turned local control OFF. If the PIANO 1 LED is not lit
when the PIANO 1 voice selector is pressed, you have turned
local control ON.
3. Release the TRANSPOSER/MIDI button.
Program Change ON/OFF
Normally the Clavinova will respond to MIDI program change
numbers received from an external keyboard or other MIDI
device, causing the correspondingly numbered Clavinova voice
to be selected. The Clavinova will normally also send a MIDI
program change number whenever one of its voices is selected,
causing the correspondingiy numbered voice or program to be
selected on the external MIDI device if the device is set up to
receive and respond to MIDI program change numbers.
This function makes it possible to cancel program change number
reception and transmission so that voices can be selected on
the Clavinova without affecting the external MIDI device, and
vice versa.
1. Hold down the TRANSPOSER/MIDI button.
2. Press the PIANO 2 voice selector. If the PIANO 2 LED is
lit when the PIANO 2 voice selector is pressed, you have
turned program change reception/transmission OFF. If the
PIANO 2 LED is not lit when the PIANO 2 voice selector
is pressed, you have turned program change reception/trans-
mission ON.
3. Release the TRANSPOSER/MIDI button.
Control Change ON/OFF
Normally the Clavinova will respond to MIDI control change
data received from an external MIDI device or keyboard, caus-
ing 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 either of its pedals are operated.
This function makes it possible to cancel control change data
reception and transmission if you do not want the Clavinova
voices to be affected by control change data received from an
external device or vice versa.
1. Hold down the TRANSPOSER/MIDI button.
2. Press the E.PIANO 1 (E.PIANO on the CLP-570) voice
selector. If the E.PIANO 1 (E.PIANO) LED is lit when the
E.PIANO 1 (E.PIANO) voice selector is pressed, you have
turned control change reception/transmission OFF. If the
E.PIANO 1 (E.PIANO) LED is not lit when the E.PIANO 1
(E.PIANO) voice selector is pressed, you have turned control
change reception/transmission ON.
3. Release the TRANSPOSER/MIDI button.
The Multi-Timbre Mode
The Multi-Timbre mode is a special mode in which the Clavinova
voices can be independently controlled on different MIDI chan-
nel numbers (1 through 10) by an external MIDI device such as
the Yamaha EMQ-1 Memory Box. The Multi-Timbre mode can
be activated as follows:
1. Hold down the TRANSPOSER/MIDI button.
2. Press the E. PIANO 2 (HARPSICHORD on the CLP-570)
voice selector. If the E. PIANO 2 (HARPSICHORD) LED
is lit when the E. PIANO 2 (HARPSICHORD) voice selector
is pressed, you have turned the Multi-Timbre mode ON. If
the E. PIANO 2 (HARPSICHORD) LED is not lit when the
E. PIANO 2 (HARPSICHORD) voice selector is pressed,
you have turned the Multi-Timbre mode OFF.
3. Release the TRANSPOSER/MIDI button.
Here's an example of how you could use the Multi-Timbre mode
to record three different parts on the EMQ-1 Memory Box that
will play different voices on the Clavinova when played back.
1. Connect the EMQ-1 to the Clavinova as shown below.

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.
