PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/Power cord
- Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
- Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have accumulated on it.
- Use only the supplied power cord/plug.
- Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over it.
Do not open
- Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Water warning
- Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill into any openings.
- Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
Fire warning
- Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit. A burning item may fall over and cause a fire.
If you notice any abnormality
- If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch, disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/Power cord
- When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.
- Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
- Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet.
Assembly
- Read carefully the attached documentation explaining the assembly process. Failure to assemble the instrument in the proper sequence might result in damage to the instrument or even injury.
Location
- Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal components.
- Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise.
- Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.
- Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.
Connections
- Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components, set all volume levels to minimum. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.
Maintenance
- Gently remove dust and dirt with a soft cloth. Do not wipe too hard since small particles of dirt can scratch the instrument's finish.
- When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
Handling caution
- Take care that the key cover does not pinch your fingers, and do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the key cover or instrument.
- Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the key cover, panel or keyboard. If this happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
- Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.
- Bumping the surface of the instrument with metal, porcelain, or other hard objects can cause the finish to crack or peel. Use caution.
- Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
- Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.
Using the bench (If included)
- Do not place the bench in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.
- Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench. Using it as a tool or step-ladder or for any other purpose might result in accident or injury.
- Only one person should sit on the bench at a time, in order to prevent the possibility of accident or injury.
- If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten them periodically using the included tool.
Saving data
Saving and backing up your data
- Depending upon the Backup Settings (page 50), internal data is retained for about 1 week after the power is turned off. If the period is exceeded, the data will be lost. Be sure to turn the power switch on for a few minutes at least once a week. The data could be lost due to malfunction or incorrect operation. Save important data to external media such as the Yamaha MDF3 MIDI data filer.
Backing up the external media
- To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that you save your important data onto two external media.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Accessories
- "50 Greats for the Piano" (Music Book)
- Owner's Manual
This manual contains complete instructions for operating your Clavinova.
- Bench
A bench may be included or optional, depending on your locale.
Tuning
Unlike an acoustic piano, the Clavinova does not need to be tuned. It always stays perfectly in tune.
■ Transporting
If you move to another location, you can transport the Clavinova along with your other belongings. You can move the unit as it is (assembled) or you can disassemble the unit.
Transport the keyboard horizontally. Do not lean it up against a wall or stand it up on its side. Do not subject the instrument to excessive vibration or shock.
Features
The Yamaha Clavinova CLP-F01 digital piano offers unmatched sonic realism and natural grand-piano type playability as well as Yamaha's original "AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling" tone-generation technology for rich, musical voices, and a newly wooden keyboard that provides graded key weight and response throughout the keyboard range.
The Grand Piano 1, 2 and 3 voices feature totally samples painstakingly recorded from a full concert grand piano. The Grand Piano 1 and 3 voices feature three velocity-switched samples (Dynamic Sampling), special “Sustain Sampling” (page 88) that samples the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano’s soundboard and strings when the damper pedal is pressed, and “Keyoff Samples” that add the subtle sound produced when the keys are released. The CLP-F01 comes much closer to the sound of a true acoustic piano.

natural_image
Illustration of two hands typing on a piano keyboard (no text or symbols)TIP
To learn characteristics of the voices, listen to demo songs for each voice (page 18). Refer to "Preset Voice List" on page 62 for more information on the characteristics of each preset voice.
TERMINOLOGY
Voice:
On the Clavinova, a voice means a "tone" or "tonal color."
TIP
You can control the loudness of a voice by adjusting the force with which you strike the keys, although different playing styles (touch sensitivities) have little or no effect with certain musical instruments.
Refer to "Preset Voice List" on page 62.
Using the Pedals
The Clavinova has three foot pedals that produce a range of expressive effects similar to those produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano.
Damper (Right) Pedal
The damper pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the damper pedal is pressed, notes sustain longer. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes.
When you select the GRAND PIANO 1 or 3 voice on the CLP-F01, pressing the damper pedal activates the instrument's special "Sustain Samples" to accurately recreate the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano's soundboard and strings.

text_image
Musical notation diagram showing rhythmic patterns with notes, rests, and wavy lines indicating sound or rhythm.When you press the damper pedal here, the notes you play before you release the pedal have a longer sustain.
TIP
The depth of the effect produced by the "Sustain Samples" can be adjusted via the "Pedal Functions" (page 46) in Function mode.
Sostenuto (Center) 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 sustain as long as you hold the pedal (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."

text_image
Musical notation diagram showing a staff with notes and a wavy line indicating motion or vibrationWhen you press the sostenu-to pedal here while holding the note, the note will sustain as long as you hold the pedal.
Soft (Left) Pedal
The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played while the pedal is pressed. The soft pedal will not affect notes that are already playing when it is pressed.
TIP
Organ, string and choir voices will continue to sound for as long as the sostenuto pedal is depressed.
TIP
The left pedal can be assigned to song start/stop operation or variation function via the "Left Pedal Mode" described on page 46.

Lets you alter another aspect of the effect, depending on the selected type. Refer to "Preset Voice List" on page 62 for more information on the characteristics of each variation.
Procedure
Pressing the [VARIATION] or selected voice button toggles the variation on and off. The indicator lights (ON) each time the [VARIATION] button is pressed.
[BRILLIANCE]
This control can be used to change the tonality or "timbre" of the sound output. The control range is from MELLOW to BRIGHT.
[REVERB]
This control enables you to select various digital reverb effects that would add extra depth and expression to the sound to create a realistic acoustic ambience.
OFF: When no reverb effect is selected, no REVERB indicator is lit.
ROOM: This setting adds a continuous reverb effect to the sound, similar to the acoustic reverberation you would hear in a room.
HALL 1: For a "bigger" reverb sound, use the HALL 1 setting. This effect simulates the natural reverberation of a small-size concert hall.
HALL 2: For a truly spacious reverb sound, use the HALL 2 setting. This effect simulates the natural reverberation of a large concert hall.
STAGE: Simulates the reverb of a stage environment.
TIP
Normal setting = OFF
TERMINOLOGY
Normal setting:
The "Normal setting" refers to the default setting (factory setting) obtained when you first turn on the power to the Clavinova.
TIP
The left pedal can be assigned to ON or OFF the variation via the "Left Pedal Mode" function described on page 46.
NOTE
When the BRILLIANCE is set to BRIGHT, the overall sound will be slightly louder. If the MAS-TER VOLUME is set at a high level the sound may become distorted. If so, lower the MAS-TER VOLUME level.
TIP
The default reverb type (including OFF) and depth settings are different for each voice.
Procedure
Pressing the [REVERB] button repeatedly toggles the reverb on and off.
The indicators light in sequence each time the [REVERB] button is pressed. No effect is produced when all indicators are off.
Even if the REVERB effect is OFF, a “Soundboard Reverb” effect will be applied when the GRAND PIANO 1, 2, or 3 voice is selected.
Adjusting Reverb Depth

Touch Sensitivity - [TOUCH]
You can select four different types of keyboard touch sensitivity — HARD, MEDIUM, SOFT or FIXED — to match different playing styles and preferences.
HARD: Requires that the keys be played quite hard to produce maximum loudness.
MEDIUM: Produces a fairly “standard” keyboard response.
SOFT: Allows maximum loudness to be produced with relatively light key pressure.
FIXED: All notes are produced at the same volume no matter how hard the keyboard is played.
You can adjust the volume.
TIP
This setting does not change the weight of the keyboard.
TIP
Normal setting = MEDIUM
TIP
The touch sensitivity type will become the common setting for all voices. However, the touch sensitivity settings may have little or no effect with certain voices that are not normally responsive to keyboard dynamics. (Refer to the "Preset Voice List" on page 62.)

Transposition – [TRANSPOSE]
The Clavinova's Transpose function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in semitone intervals to facilitate playing in difficult key signatures, and to let you easily match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instruments. For example, if you set the transposition amount to "5," playing key C produces pitch F. In this way, you can play a song as though it were in C major, and the Clavinova will transpose it to the key of F.
![YAMAHA Clavinova CLP-F01 - Transposition – [TRANSPOSE] - 1](/content/2026/06/1239175/images/7913431d827a3d581b5b161fa1c74af008adac62dc4481d2cc34c43efa49976d.jpg)

To turn the variation on or off for only one of the voices, hold the voice button for the other voice and press the button of the voice for which you want to change the variation.
TIP
[REVERB] in Dual Mode The reverb type assigned to Voice 1 will take priority over the other. (If the reverb is set to OFF, Voice 2 reverb type will be in effect.) Reverb depth setting via the panel controls (i.e., pressing the [-/NO] or [+/YES] buttons while holding the [REVERB] button — see page 24) will be applied only to Voice 1.
TIP
[EFFECT] in Dual Mode Depending on the conditions, one effect type may take priority over the other. Depth will be decided according to the depth default value of the voice combination. However, using function F3 (page 44) you can adjust the depth value for each voice to your liking. Effect depth setting via the panel controls (i.e., pressing the [-/NO] or [+/YES] buttons while holding the [EFFECT] button — see page 25) will be applied only to Voice 1.
Splitting the Keyboard Range and Playing Two Different Voices (Split mode)
Split mode enables you to play two different voices on the keyboard — one with the left hand and another with the right hand. For example, you can play a bass part using the Wood Bass or Electric Bass voice with the left hand, and a melody with the right hand.

The [VARIATION] can be used to turn the variation for the right voice on or off as required. While the [SPLIT] button is held, however, the voice indicator of the left voice lights. In this state the [VARIATION] button turns the variation for the left voice on or off.
TIP
[REVERB] in Split Mode
The reverb type assigned to the right voice will take priority over the other. (If the reverb is set to OFF, the left voice's reverb type will be in effect.) Reverb depth setting via the panel controls (i.e. pressing the [-/NO] or [+/YES] buttons while holding the [REVERB] button — see page 24) will be applied to the right voice only.
TIP
[EFFECT] in Split Mode
Depending on the conditions, one effect type will take priority over the other. The depth will be decided according to the depth default value of the voice combination. However, using function F4 (page 45) you can change the depth value for each voice as you like. Effect depth setting via the panel controls (i.e. pressing the [-/NO] or [+/YES] buttons while holding the [EFFECT] button — see page 25) will be applied to the right voice only.
Using the Metronome
The Clavinova features a built-in metronome (a device that keeps an accurate tempo) that is convenient for practicing.

The tempo of the metronome and user song recorder playback (the recorder is described in the next section) can be set from 32 to 280 beats per minute by using the [TEMPO/FUNCTION# ▼ ▲] buttons (when the [TEMPO/FUNCTION# ▼ ▲] button's [TEMPO] indicator is lit).
Adjusting the time signature
The time signature (beat) of the metronome can be set by using the [-/NO] and [+/YES] buttons while holding the METRONOME [START/STOP] button. You can set the beat to 0, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. The current setting appears on the LED display while you are holding the METRONOME [START/STOP] button.

2 Stop the metronome.
Turn off the metronome by pressing the METRONOME [START/STOP] button.
TIP
If the [TEMPO/FUNCTION#] button's [FUNCTION#] indicator is lit, press the [TEMPO/FUNCTION#] button to light the [TEMPO] indicator.
TIP
The volume of the metronome can be adjusted via the Metronome Volume function in Function mode (page 47).
Recording Your Performance
The ability to record and play back what you've played on the CLP-F01 keyboard can be an effective practice aid. You can, for example, record just the left-hand part, and then practice the right-hand part while playing back the recorded left-hand part. Or, since you can record up to two tracks separately, you could record the left- and right-hand parts separately, or record both parts of a duet and hear how they sound when played back. The CLP-F01's two-track Song Recorder allows the recording of up to three User Songs.
TIP
You can record your performance (audio data) to a cassette tape recorder or other recording device via the AUX OUT connector (page 52).
TERMINOLOGY
Recording vs. Saving:
The format of performance data recorded on a cassette tape differs from that of data recorded on the Clavinova. A cassette tape records audio signals. The Clavinova "saves" information regarding note timing, voices, and a tempo value, but not audio signals. When you play back recorded songs, the Clavinova produces sound based on the saved information. Therefore, recording on the Clavinova may be more accurately called "saving information." However, this book often uses the word "recording" because it seems to make more sense.

NOTE
The amount of memory available for recording:
This value in KiloBytes (a unit used of measurement for data) indicates how much space remains available for recording on the Clavinova. You can record up to a maximum of about 9,400 notes on the CLP-F01 depending on pedal usage and other factors.
TIP
If a user song ([USER 1/2/3]) is not selected (the lamp is not lit), pressing the [REC] button will result in the [USER 1] song's [TRACK 1] being selected and Record mode engaged. At this time, [TRACK 2] play-back will be turned off if the track contains data.
TIP
If the metronome was on when you started recording, you'll be able to keep time with the metronome while recording, but the metronome sound will not be recorded.
TIP
For more recording information, see page 35.
TIP
The left pedal can be assigned to start and stop recording via the "Left Pedal Mode" function described on page 46.
NOTE
The record track indicator will begin to flash when the recorder memory is almost full. If the memory becomes full during recording, "FUL" will appear on the display and recording will stop automatically. (All recorded data up to that point will be retained.)
NOTE
Pressing the SONG [START/STOP] button to start recording, then pressing it again to stop recording will erase all previously-recorded data on the selected track.

Useful Playback Functions
Turning track playback on and off
When you select a song on the Clavinova, the indicators for tracks that contain data (one of [TRACK 1] [TRACK 2] or both) are lit in green. While the Clavinova is playing or stopped, pressing these track buttons turns off the indicators, and the data on those tracks is not played. Pressing the track buttons toggles track playback on and off.
Starting playback automatically when you start playing the keyboard (Synchro Start)
You can start playback as soon as you start playing the keyboard. This is called the "Synchro Start" function.
To engage the Synchro Start function, press the SONG [START/STOP] button while holding a track button that is ON.
The right-most dot on the display will flash at the current tempo.
(Repeat the previous operation to disengage the Synchro Start function.)

Playback will then start as soon as you begin playing on the keyboard.
This function is useful when you wish to match the timing of the beginning of the play-back sound and the start of your own performance.
Assigning the START/STOP function to the left pedal
The left pedal can also be assigned to song start/stop operation via the “Pedal Start/Stop” (page 46).
This is convenient for starting playback of the recorded part anytime after you have started playing.
TIP
Tracks can be turned on or off before or during playback.
TIP
You can adjust the volume of a part of a song from "50 Greats for the Piano" for which play-back is turned off (pages 20, 47).
During recorder playback, the volume of a track that is turned off will always be "0."
NOTE
If you press the SONG [START/STOP] button while holding down a track button that is OFF, track playback is turned on and the Synchro Start function is placed on stand-by.

About Each Function
F1. Fine Tuning of the Pitch
You can fine tune the pitch of the entire instrument. This function is useful when you play the Clavinova along with other instruments or CD music.
- Engage Function mode and select F1
- Use the [-/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to lower or raise the pitch of the A3 key in approximately 0.2 Hz increments.
$$ \boxed {4 2 7} \dots \boxed {4. 4 0} \quad \boxed {4 5 3} $$
Tenths of a hertz are indicated on the LED display by the appearance and position of one or two dots, as in the following example:
| Display Value | |
| 440 | 440.0 |
| 440 | 440.2 |
| 440 | 440.4 |
| 440. | 440.6 |
| 440. | 440.8 |
Setting range: 427.0–453.0 (Hz)
Normal setting: 440.0 (Hz)
TERMINOLOGY
Hz (Hertz):
This unit of measurement refers to the frequency of a sound and represents the number of times a sound wave vibrates in a second.
TIP
You can also use the keyboard to set the pitch (in any mode other than Function mode).
To tune up (in about 0.2Hz steps): Hold the A-1 and B-1 keys (two white keys at the left end) simultaneously and press any key between C3 and B3.
To tune down (in about 0.2Hz steps): Hold the A-1 and A#-1 keys (a white and a black key at the left end) simultaneously and press any key between C3 and B3.
To restore standard pitch: Hold the A-1, A‡ -1 and B-1 (two white keys and one black key at the left end) simultaneously and press any key between C3 and B3.
- Refer to "Panel Controls and Terminals" on page 16 for information on the key and key name assignment.
(During the procedure described above, the display indicates a value in Hz <4.27. After the procedure, the display returns to the previous indication.)
TIP
You can also tune in about 1Hz steps (in any mode other than Function mode).
To tune down or up, respectively, in approximately 1 Hz increments: Hold the A-1 and A*-1 keys (a white and a black key at the left end) or A-1 and B-1 keys (two white keys at the left end) simultaneously and press the [-/NO] or [+/YES] button.
To restore standard pitch: Hold the A-1 and A ^4 -1 keys (a white and a black key at the left end) or A-1 and B-1 keys (two white keys at the left end) simultaneously and press the [-/NO] [+/YES] buttons simultaneously.
(During the procedure described above, the display indicates a value in Hz <4.27. After the procedure, the display returns to the previous indication.)
F2. Selecting a Scale
You can select various scales.
Equal Temperament is the most common contemporary piano tuning scale. However, history has known numerous other scales, many of which serve as the basis for certain genres of music. You can experience these tunings with the Clavinova.
Equal
One octave is divided into twelve equal intervals. Currently the most popular piano tuning scale.
PureMajor/PureMinor
Based on natural overtones, three major chords using these scales produce a beautiful, pure sound. They are sometimes used for chorus parts.
Pythagorean
This scale, designed by Pythagoras, a Greek philosopher, is based on the interval of a perfect 5th.
The 3rd produces swells, but the 4th and 5th are beautiful and suitable for some leads.
MeanTone
This scale is an improvement of the Pythagorean in that the swell of the 3rd has been eliminated. The scale became popular during the late 16th century through the late 18th century, and was used by Handel.
These scales combine Mean Tone and Pythagorean in different ways. With these scales, modulation changes the impression and feel of the songs. They were often used in the era of Bach and Beethoven. They are often used today to reproduce the music of that era on harpsichords.

Sub-mode
F8.1: MIDI Transmit Channel Selection
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and receiving equipment must be matched for proper data transfer.
This parameter enables you to specify the channel on which the Clavinova transmits MIDI data.
Setting range: 1 – 16, OFF (not transmitted)
Normal setting: 1
NOTE
In Dual mode, Voice 1 data is transmitted on its specified channel. In Split mode, right voice data is transmitted on its specified channel. In Dual mode, Voice 2 data is transmitted on the next greater channel number relative to the specified channel. In Split mode, left voice data is transmitted on the next greater channel number relative to the specified channel. In either mode, no data is transmitted if the transmit channel is set to "OFF".
NOTE
Demo/preset song data and recorder playback data are not transmitted via MIDI.
F82: MIDI Receive Channel Selection
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and receiving equipment must be matched for proper data transfer. This parameter enables you to specify the channel on which the Clavinova receives MIDI data.
Setting range: ALL, 1&2, 1 - 16
Normal setting: ALL
TIP
ALL:
A "Multi-timbre" Receive mode is available. It allows simultaneous reception of different parts on all 16 MIDI channels, enabling the Clavinova to play multi-channel song data received from a music computer or sequencer.
1&2:
A "1&2" Receive mode is available. It allows simultaneous reception on channels 1 and 2 only, enabling the Clavinova to play 1 and 2 channel song data received from a music computer or sequencer.
TIP
Program change and other like channel messages received will not affect the CLP-F01's panel settings or the notes you play on the keyboard.
NOTE
No MIDI reception occurs when Demo/Preset Song mode is engaged.
F83: Local Control ON/OFF
“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the CLP-F01 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 CLP-F01 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.
Setting range: ON/OFF
Normal setting: ON
F84: Program Change ON/OFF
Normally the CLP-F01 will respond to MIDI program change numbers received from an external keyboard or other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly-numbered voice to be selected on the corresponding channel (the keyboard voice does not change). The CLP-F01 will normally also send a MIDI program change number whenever one of its voices is selected, causing the correspondingly-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 CLP-F01 without affecting the external MIDI device.
TIP
For information on program change numbers for each of the CLP-F01's voices, refer to page 69 in the MIDI Data Format section.
Setting range: ON/OFF
Normal setting: ON
F8.5: Control Change ON/OFF
Normally the CLP-F01 will respond to MIDI control change data received from an external MIDI device or keyboard, causing the voice on the corresponding channel to be affected by pedal and other “control” settings received from the controlling device (the keyboard voice is not affected).
The CLP-F01 also transmits MIDI control change information when the pedal or other appropriate controls are operated.
This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission so that, for example, the CLP-F01's pedal and other controls can be operated without affecting an external MIDI device.
TIP
For information on control changes that can be used with the CLP-F01, refer to the MIDI Data Format on page 69.
Setting range: ON/OFF
Normal setting: ON
F86: MIDI Transmit Transpose
This function allows the MIDI note data transmitted by the CLP-F01 to be transposed up or down in semitone increments by up to plus or minus 12 semitones. The pitch of the CLP-F01 itself is not affected.
Setting range: -12 - 0 - 12 (in semitones)
Normal setting: 0
F8.7 Panel/Status Transmit
This function causes all the current CLP-F01 panel 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, such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3, which will be used to control the CLP-F01 on playback. By transmitting the CLP-F01 panel settings and recording them on the MIDI sequence recorder prior to the actual performance data, the CLP-F01 will be automatically restored to the same settings when the performance is played back.
TERMINOLOGY
Setup Data:
Data that contains a set of panel settings for the Clavinova.
Procedure
- Set up the panel controls as desired.
- Connect the Clavinova to a sequencer via MIDI, and set up the sequencer so it can receive the setup data.
- Engage Function mode and select .F8.7
- Press the [+/YES] button to transmit the panel/status data.
End will appear on the LED display when the data has been successfully transmitted.
TIP
See page 70 for a list of the "Panel Data Contents" transmitted by this function.
TIP
Receiving the transmitted data:
- Connect the Clavinova via MIDI to the device to which the setup data was transmitted previously.
- Start sending the setup data from the device.
The Clavinova automatically receives the setup data, which will be reflected in the panel settings.
(For the data to be accepted, the Clavinova that receives the setup data should be the same model as the one that transmitted the setup data to the sequencer.)
TIP
For more information on transmitting and receiving setup data via MIDI, refer to the owner's manual for the connected MIDI device.
F88: Bulk Data Dump
You can save current song data on the Clavinova as MIDI bulk data by transferring it to a connected MIDI data filer (such as an MDF3) or a sequencer. To play back the saved song data, send the bulk data back from the storage device to the Clavinova and follow the usual playback procedure.
TERMINOLOGY
bulk data:
A complete set or extended sequence of data.
Procedure
- Record your performance on the Clavinova.
- Connect the Clavinova to MDF3, a MIDI data filer via MIDI, and set up the MDF3 so it will receive bulk data.
- Engage Function mode and select .F88
- Press the [+/YES] button to begin bulk transmission.
End will appear on the LED display when the data has been successfully transmitted.
NOTE
No MIDI note/panel data transmission or data reception occurs during a bulk data dump transmit operation.
TIP
Receiving (returning) the transmitted data:
- Connect the CLP-F01 via MIDI to the device to which the data was previously transmitted.
- Start sending the data from the device.
The CLP-F01 automatically receives the data from the unit. (At this time, any data previously stored in the Clavinova will be erased.)
Then, follow the usual playback procedure.
(For the data to be accepted, the Clavinova that receives the data should be the same model as the one from which the data was once transmitted to the MIDI data filer.)
NOTE
The reload operation cannot be executed when Demo/Preset Song mode or the user song recorder is in operation, or when Function mode is engaged.
TIP
For more information on transmitting and receiving bulk data via MIDI, refer to the owner's manual for the connected MIDI device.
F9. Backup Functions
TERMINOLOGY
Backup:
You can back up some settings, such as voice selection and reverb type, so that they will not be lost when you turn off the power to the Clavinova.
If the backup function is turned on, the settings at power off are effective. If the backup function is turned off, the settings in memory are erased when you turn off the power. In this case, when you turn on the power to the unit, the default settings (the initial settings) will be used. (The factory setting default list is found on page 68.)
However, the backup settings themselves, and the contents of the user song recorder memory, are always backed up.

CAUTION
Even if the backup function is turned on via one of the functions described below, the data will be retained in memory for only about one week if the power is not turned on during this time. If the backup period is exceeded, all settings will be reset to their default values. If you want to retain the backup settings for longer periods, be sure to turn the power on for a few minutes at least once a week.
You can turn the backup function on or off for each function group (each of the following sub-mode functions).
- Engage Function mode and select F94
- Press the [+/YES] button to engage the backup function's sub-mode, then use the [TEMPO/FUNCTION# ▼ ▲] buttons to select the desired sub-mode.
Press the [-/NO] or [+/YES] button to turn the backup function on or off.

You can connect these jacks to a stereo system to amplify the Clavinova or to a cassette tape recorder to record your performance. Refer to the diagram below and use audio cables to make the connections.
![YAMAHA Clavinova CLP-F01 - AUX OUT [R] [L] Pin jacks (LEVEL FIXED), [R] [L/L+R] Phone jacks - 1](/content/2026/06/1239175/images/7cedb6fd00702fc6cb0976c4a810c28c32a1a5c451647eddd7c76be1ab7c5d8d.jpg)
CAUTION
Do not route the output from the AUX OUT jacks to the AUX IN jacks. That is, when you connect an external audio device to the AUX OUT jacks, do not connect the audio device to the Clavinova's AUX IN jacks. If you make this connection, the signal input at the AUX IN jacks will be output from AUX OUT. This creates an audio loop, causing audio oscillation and abnormal playback, and leading to malfunction of both pieces of equipment.

CAUTION
When the Clavinova's AUX OUT jacks are connected to an external audio system, first turn on the power to the Clavinova, then to the external audio system. Reverse this order when you turn the power off.

When these are connected (with RCA pin plug; LEVEL FIXED), the sound is output to the external device at a fixed level, regardless of the [MASTER VOLUME] control setting.
When these are connected (with standard phone plugs), you can use the [MASTER VOLUME] control to adjust the volume of the sound output to the external device.
NOTE
Use audio cables and adaptor plugs with no resistance.
NOTE
The Clavinova's [MASTER VOLUME] and [BRILLIANCE] control setting does not affect the signal output from the AUX OUT (LEVEL FIXED) jacks.
② AUX IN [R], [L/L+R] jacks
The stereo outputs from another instrument can be connected to these jacks, allowing the sound of an external instrument to be reproduced via the Clavinova's speakers. Refer to the diagram below and use audio cables to make the connections.
CAUTION
When the Clavinova's AUX IN jacks are connected to an external device, first turn on the power to the external device, then to the Clavinova. Reverse this order when you turn the power off.

③ TO HOST jack
This jack allows direct connection to a personal computer. (Refer to “Connecting a personal computer” on page 54 for more information.)
4 HOST SELECT switch
This switch should be set according to the type of connected MIDI device or personal computer. (Refer to “Connecting a personal computer” on page 54 for more information.)
⑤ MIDI [IN], [OUT], [THRU] connectors
Use MIDI cables to connect external MIDI devices to these connectors.
Make sure you set the HOST SELECT switch to MIDI when you use these connectors.
(Refer to "About MIDI" on page 51 for more information.)
NOTE
The Clavinova's [MASTER VOLUME] and [BRILLIANCE] control settings affect the input signal from the AUX IN jacks, but the [REVERB] and [EFFECT] settings do not.
NOTE
If you connect the Clavinova to a monaural device, use only the AUX IN [L/L+R] jack or AUX OUT [L/L+R] jack.
Connecting a Personal Computer
You can enjoy computer music data on the Clavinova by connecting a computer to the TO HOST (or MIDI) jack.
NOTE
When the Clavinova is used as a tone module, performance data with voices that are not found on the Clavinova will not be played correctly.
"The Clavinova-Computer Connection," is a supplementary guidebook that describes, for beginners, what you can do with your Clavinova and a personal computer and how to set up a Clavinova-Computer system (the manual is not written for any specific models). The document is available as a PDF file (in English) at the following Internet address.
Yamaha Manual Library:
http://www2.yamaha.co.jp/manual/english/
There are three methods by which to connect the Clavinova to a personal computer:
- Connect the serial port on the computer to the Clavinova's TO HOST jack (page 55).
- Use a MIDI interface and the Clavinova's MIDI connectors (page 56).
- Use the USB port on the computer and the UX16, UX96, or UX256, a USB interface (page 57).
For more information, refer to the specified pages.
NOTE
When connecting the Clavinova to a personal computer, first turn off the power to both the Clavinova and the computer before you connect any cables or set the HOST SELECT switch. After making the connections and switch settings, turn on the power to the computer first, then to the Clavinova.
NOTE
If you do not use the [TO HOST] jack of the Clavinova, make sure you disconnect the cable from the jack. If the cable is left connected, the Clavinova may not function properly.
NOTE
HSF will appear in the display if the host computer is not turned on, the connecting cable is not properly connected, the HOST SELECT switch is not in the proper position, or the MIDI driver or MIDI application is not active. In this situation, turn the power off to both the Clavinova and the computer, and check the cable connection and the position of the HOST SELECT switch. Once the connection and HOST SELECT switch position is verified, turn the power of the computer on first, then the Clavinova, and check whether the MIDI driver and MIDI application function properly.
NOTE
When the [HOST SELECT] switch is set to "PC-1," PC-2," or "Mac," you can use the [TO HOST] jack, but the MIDI connectors are disabled since no data transfer occurs via the MIDI connectors. On the other hand, when the [HOST SELECT] switch is set to "MIDI," you can use the MIDI connectors, but not the [TO HOST] jack since no data is transferred via the [TO HOST] jack.
1. Connecting the serial port on the computer to the Clavinova's TO HOST jack
Connect the computer's serial port (RS-232C or RS-422) to the Clavinova's TO HOST jack.
With this connection, the Clavinova functions as a MIDI interface. Therefore, you do not need a special MIDI interface.
Connection
Use a special serial cable (page 55) to connect the computer's serial port (RS-232C or RS-422) to the Clavinova's TO HOST jack.

Troubleshooting
| Problem Possible Cause and Solution | |
| The Clavinova does not turn on. The Clavinova | has not been plugged in properly. Securely insert the female plug into the socket on the Clavinova, and the male plug into a proper AC outlet (page 12). |
| A click or pop is heard when the power is turned on or off. | This is normal when electrical current is being applied to the instrument. |
| Noise is heard from the speakers or headphones. | The noise may be due to interference caused by the use of a mobile phone in close proximity to the Clavinova. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the Clavinova. |
| The overall volume is low, or no sound is heard. | The Master Volume is set too low; set it to an appropriate level using the [MASTER VOLUME] control.Make sure a pair of headphones is not connected to the headphones jack (when the SPEAKER switch is set to the “NORMAL” position). If the SPEAKER switch is set to the “OFF” position, set it to “NORMAL” or “ON” (page 13).Make sure that Local Control (page 48) is ON. |
| The speakers do not switch off when a pair of headphones is connected. | The SPEAKER switch may be switched “ON.” Set the SPEAKER switch to the “NORMAL” position (page 13). |

- When control change reception is turned OFF in the Function mode, control change data will not be transmitted or received except for Bank Select and Mode messages.
- Local on/off, OMNI on/off are not transmitted. (The appropriate note off number is supplied with "All Note Off" transmission).
- When a voice bank MSB/LSB is received, the number is stored in the internal buffer regardless of the received order, then the stored value is used to select the appropriate voice when a program change message is received.
- The Multi-timbre and Poly modes are always active. No change occurs when OMNI ON, OMNI OFF, MONO, or POLY mode messages are received.

F7H = End of Exclusive
When the General MIDI mode ON message is received, the
MIDI system will be reset to its default settings.
This message requires approximately 50ms to execute, so sufficient time should be allowed before the next message is sent.
8. SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE MESSAGES (XG Standard)
(1) XG Native Parameter Change
Data format: [F0H] -> [43H] -> [1nH] -> [4CH] -> [hhH] -> [mmH] -> [llH] -> [ddH] -> [F7H]

ddH = Data
F7H = End of Exclusive
Data size must match parameter size (2 or 4 bytes).
When the XG System On message is received, the MIDI system will be reset to its default settings.
The message requires approximately 50ms to execute, so
sufficient time should be allowed before the next message is sent.
(2) XG Native Bulk Data (reception only)
Data format: [F0H] -> [43H] -> [0nH] -> [4CH] -> [aaH] -> [bbH] -> [hhH] -> [mmH] -> [/H] -> [ddH] ->...-> [ccH] -> [F7H]

- Receipt of the XG SYSTEM ON message causes reinitialization of relevant parameters and Control Change values. Allow sufficient time for processing to execute (about 50 msec) before sending the CLP-F01 another message.
- XG Native Parameter Change message may contain two or four bytes of parameter data (depending on the parameter size).
- F or information about the Address and Byte Count values, refer to Table 1 below. Note that the table's Total Size value gives the size of a bulk block. Only the top address of the block (00H, 00H, 00H) is valid as a bulk data address.
