Connections

Connecting to an audio or musical instrument amplifier provides even clearer, more powerful sound through external speakers.

Left Side

Back
3 Audio amplifier AUX IN, etc.

Guitar amplifier, keyboard amplifier, etc.

IMPORTANT!

• Whenever connecting external equipment, first set the VOLUME knob of the digital piano and the volume controller of the external equipment to relatively low volume settings. You can later adjust volume to the level you want after connections are complete.
• Be sure also to refer to the documentation that comes with the external equipment for its proper connection procedures.

Connecting Headphones 1

Connect commercially available headphones to the digital piano's headphones jack. This cuts off the built-in speakers, which means you can practice even late at night without disturbing others. To protect your hearing, make sure that you do not set the volume level too high when using headphones.

Connecting to a PEDAL Jack ②

Depending on the type of operation you want the pedal (SP-20) to perform, connect the pedal's cable to the digital piano's DAMPER jack or SOFT/SOSTENUTO jack. If you want to use both jacks at the same time, you need to purchase another optionally available SP-20 pedal.

See "Using the Pedals" on page E-15 for information about using a pedal.

Connecting to Audio Equipment ③

Use commercially available cables to connect the external audio equipment to the digital piano's LINE OUT jacks as shown in Figure 3. R jack output is right channel sound, while L/MONO jack output is left channel sound. It is up to you to purchase connecting cables like the ones shown in the illustration for connection of audio equipment. Normally in this configuration you must set the audio equipment's input selector to the setting that specifies the terminal (such as AUX IN) to which the digital piano is connected. Use the digital piano's VOLUME knob to adjust the volume level.

Connecting to a Musical Instrument Amplifier 4

Use commercially available cables to connect the amplifier to the digital piano's LINE OUT jacks as shown in Figure 4. R jack output is right channel sound, while L/MONO jack output is left channel sound. Connecting to the L/MONO jack only outputs a mixture of both channels. It is up to you to purchase connecting cable like the one shown in the illustration for connection of the amplifier. Use the digital piano's VOLUME knob to adjust the volume level.

Accessories and Options

Use only the accessories and options specified for this digital piano. Use of non-authorized items creates the danger of fire, electric shock, and personal injury.

Basic Operation

Using Tones

The following procedures describe everything you need to know about selecting and using tones.

Selecting a Tone

This digital piano has a selection of 8 built-in tones.

NOTE

• The eight tones that can be selected with the TONE buttons are for normal keyboard play. The GRAND PIANO 1 tone was recorded with stereo sampling.

To select a tone

1. Press the POWER button to turn on the digital piano power.
2. Press one of the TONE buttons to select the tone you want.

3. Use the VOLUME knob to adjust the volume.

4. It is a good idea to set the volume to a relatively low level at first.

5. Moving the knob towards MIN decreases volume, while moving it towards MAX increases volume.

6. Play something on the keyboard.

7. Adjust volume to the level you want as you play.
8. After you are finished playing, press the POWER button to turn off power.

NOTE

• The GRAND PIANO 1 tone is selected automatically whenever you turn on the digital piano power.

More about tones

Polyphony

This digital piano can play up to 64 notes at the same time. Also note that the tones below offer only 32-note polyphony. GRAND PIANO 1, BRIGHT PIANO, MELLOW PIANO, ELEC PIANO 2, HARPSICHORD

Touch Response

The touch response feature of this digital piano causes the volume of the tones and the sound of the tones themselves to change slightly in accordance with how much pressure you apply to the keyboard, just like with an acoustic piano. Touch response affects the HARPSICHORD tone only slightly, because the original musical instrument normally produces the same sound, no matter how much pressure is applied.

Digitally Sampled Tones

The tones of this digital piano are produced using digitally recorded samples of actual musical instruments. Not all of the instruments, however, can produce tones across the entire range played by this digital piano (A0 through C8). In such a case, digital recordings are used for the range that actually can be produced by the original instrument, and synthesized tones are used for notes that cannot be produced naturally. Because of this, you may notice very slight differences between natural notes and synthesized notes in sound quality and in results produced when using effects. These differences are normal and do not indicate malfunction.

424A-E-014A

Using Digital Effects

This digital piano provides you with a selection of digital effects that you can apply to tones. The following provides general descriptions of each effect, but the best way to find out how they affect tones is to experiment for yourself.

Using the Pedals

The digital piano is equipped with two pedal jacks, one for a damper pedal and one for a soft/sostenuto pedal. Whether the pedal connected to the SOFT/SOSTENUTO jack operates as a soft pedal or sostenuto pedal depends on what you do when you turn on the digital piano power.

Pedal functions

• Damper pedal
  Pressing this pedal causes notes to reverberate and to sustain longer.
• Soft pedal
  Pressing this pedal dampens notes and slightly reduces their volume. Only notes played after the pedal is depressed are affected, and any notes played before the pedal is pressed sound at their normal volume.
• Sostenuto pedal
  Like the damper pedal, this pedal causes notes to reverberate and to sustain longer. The difference between the two pedals is the timing when they are pressed. With the sostenuto pedal, you press the pedal after depressing the notes you want to sustain. Only the notes whose keyboard keys are depressed when the sostenuto pedal is pressed are affected.

To use the SOFT/SOSTENUTO pedal as a soft pedal

Press the POWER button to turn on the digital piano power. Soft pedal is the normal effect of the pedal connected to the SOFT/SOSTENUTO jack.

MIDI

What is MIDI?

The letters MIDI stand for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, which is the name of a worldwide standard for digital signals and connectors that makes it possible to exchange musical data between musical instruments and computers (machines) produced by different manufacturers. MIDI compatible equipment can exchange keyboard key press, key release, tone change, and other data as messages. Though you do not need any special knowledge about MIDI to use this digital piano as a stand-alone unit, MIDI operations require a bit of specialized knowledge. This section provides you with an overview of MIDI that will help to get you going.

What you can do with MIDI Send

• What you play on the digital piano can be sent to the connected device as MIDI messages ^*1 . The connected device sounds notes in accordance with the messages it receives.
• MIDI messages ^1 can be sent from the digital piano to a commercially available MIDI sequencer ^2 for recording.

Receive

• The digital piano can be used to sound notes sent as MIDI messages from a connected device.
• Commercially available MIDI piano data can be sent from a MIDI sequencer*2 or MIDI-capable personal computer for playback on the digital piano. Up to 16 parts can be played simultaneously by the digital piano.

1 Keyboard play and memory playback data can be sent as MIDI data. Demo tunes cannot be sent as MIDI data.
2 A device that contains memory storage for MIDI data. Some MIDI sequencers feature external storage capabilities, which let you record a virtually unlimited number of tunes.

MIDI Connections

Two MIDI cables, one for sending and one for receiving, are required for two-way recording and playback capabilities with a connected MIDI sequencer or other device.

MIDI Channels

MIDI allows you to send the data for multiple parts at the same time, with each part being sent over a separate MIDI channel. There are 16 MIDI channels, numbered 1 through 16, and MIDI channel data is always included whenever you exchange data (key press, pedal operation, etc.).

Both the sending machine and the receiving machine must be set to the same channel for the receiving unit to correctly receive and play data. If the receiving machine is set to Channel 2, for example, it receives only MIDI Channel 2 data, and all other channels are ignored.

This digital piano is equipped with multi-timbre capabilities, which means it can receive messages over all 16 MIDI channels and play up to 16 parts at the same time.

Keyboard and pedal operations performed on this digital piano are sent out by selecting a MIDI channel (1 to 16) and then sending the appropriate message.

Simultaneous Receive Over Multiple Channels (Multi-Timbre)

The Multi-Timbre mode makes it possible to assign the digital piano's built-in tones to MIDI channels 1 through 16. Then you can simultaneously sound multiple channels to play from a commercially available multi-track sequencer.

NOTE

• See "Assigning Tones to Individual Channels" on this page for details on assigning tones to each channel.
• Up to 16 channels can be received simultaneously (Channel 1 through channel 16).
• The number of channels to be received simultaneously cannot be predetermined. If it becomes necessary to cancel a channel, the cancel operation must be performed on the sending side.

Setting the Keyboard Channel

This parameter sets the channel for sending MIDI messages to an external device. You can set any MIDI channel in the range of 1 to 16 as the keyboard channel.

To set the Keyboard Channel

1. While still holding down the CONTROL button, select the Keyboard channel by pressing one of the keyboard keys illustrated below.

Example: Channel 8

• A note does not sound when you press a keyboard key while holding down CONTROL.

NOTE

• The Keyboard Channel is automatically set to 1 whenever you turn on the digital piano power.

Assigning Tones to Individual Channels

You can assign tones to channels using a Program Change message sent from a connected MIDI device. You cannot change the tone assigned to each channel from the digital piano.

NOTE

• The GRAND PIANO 1 tone is automatically assigned to all channels whenever you turn on the digital piano power.

Sending Memory Playback Data

You can send memory playback as MIDI data.

The send channel used depends on the keyboard channel setting, as shown in the table below.

Keyboard Play	Keyboard Channel
Memory	Keyboard Channel + 1*

• When you have Channel 16 set as the keyboard channel, memory playback is send over Channel 1.

NOTE

• Pedal effect data recorded to memory is applied to play back from memory, and does not affect your performance on the keyboard. Likewise, pedal operations on the digital piano are applied to the keyboard only, and not to play back from the memory.

Turning Local Control On and Off

This setting effectively determines whether or not the keyboard and pedals of the digital piano are connected to the digital piano's sound source, as illustrated below.

When Local Control is on (the normal setting), anything played on the keyboard is sounded by the internal sound source and simultaneously output from the MIDI OUT terminal. When off, anything played on the keyboard is output from the MIDI OUT terminal only, without being sounded by the sound source.

Local Control can be turned off when you are using the digital piano as the sound source of a connected sequencer or other device, and you want to guard against sound being produced should the digital piano keyboard be pressed accidentally.

To turn Local Control on and off

1. While still holding down the CONTROL button, switch Local Control on and off by pressing one of the keyboard keys illustrated below.

• A note does not sound when you press a keyboard key while holding down CONTROL.

NOTE

• Note that no sound will be produced from the digital piano's speakers if you press the keyboard while Local Control is turned off.
• Local Control is turned on automatically whenever you turn on the digital piano power.

MIDI Data Notes

This section provides details about the MIDI data this digital piano sends and receives. You can also find further technical information in the "MIDI Data Format" and "MIDI Implementation Chart"* at the end of this User's Guide.

• The MIDI Implementation Chart is a standard format summary of how data is transferred between this digital piano and a connected MIDI device.

Keyboard Data (Note On, Note Off, Note Number, Velocity)

The following four types of keyboard data can be sent and received.

Data	Meaning
Note On	Keyboard key is pressed.
Note Off	Keyboard key is released.
Note Number	Which key is pressed.
Velocity	Pressure applied

Tone Change Data (Program Change)

A program number is data used for tone selection. Program numbers come in handy when using the tones of this digital piano to play MIDI data received from an external sequencer or other MIDI device. When the program number received from another devices does not match one of the built-in tones of this digital piano, however, the tone change is ignored and play continues without a tone change.

The following shows the program numbers that are supported by this digital piano.

Pedal and Effect Operation Data (Control Change and Universal System Exclusive Message)

Control Change is used to send and receive data about damper, soft, and sostenuto pedal* depress and release operations, as well as data about digital effects.

• You can connect up to two pedals to this digital piano. You can also specify either soft or sustainuto as the effect of the pedal connected to the SOFT/SOSTENUTO jack. Pressing a pedal connected to the SOFT/SOSTENUTO jack sends data that corresponds to the effect (soft or sustainuto) currently selected for the pedal.
