GETTING STARTED

Assembly Instructions for Andante CGP220

In addition to the main piano cabinet, your CGP220 should come with the parts shown below. Three people will be need to complete the assembly, as the piano cabinet must first rest on the floor with support. Then the entire instrument must be lifted once the legs are securely attached.

Item	Part Name	Shape	Q'ty	Screw	Q'ty
1	LEG		3		12
2	PEDAL BOX		1		2
3	PEDAL SUPPORT ROD		2		8

STEP 1:

A) Place piano cabinet and legs on a carpeled floor or blanket. Till the cabinet so that the underside is accessible.

B) Align each of the 3 legs to the foot holes, as shown, using the hexagon wrench provided to secure each leg with 4 bolts. Be sure to tighten all screws.

page 2 page 3

Chapter 2

GETTING STARTED

STEP 3:

Place main piano unit facing forward. First set pedal support rods into the rear of the pedal box, then line up the other end of the rod to the support rod holes on the underside of the main cabinet. Use the 8 screws provided to secure the rods.

STEP 4:

Move the piano into an upright position.

Using 3 people, one near each leg, lift the piano body straight upward with legs parallel to the floor. Then tilt backward until all 3 legs are vertical. Finally, lower the body until the legs touch the floor.

To avoid possible damage, don't let the weight of the body rest on the legs until they are vertical.

CAUTION: THE PIANO CABINET WILL NOT SAFELY SIT UNSUPPORTED ON THE LEGS UNTIL ALL OF THE BOLTS ARE IN PLACE. HAVE AN ASSISTANT HOLD THE CABINET WHILE THE BOLTS ARE BEING SECURED.

RAISING THE PIANO LID:

The CGP220 has lid support rods allowing two (optional) open positions: low and high. Raise the lid, then lift the support rod, holding the lid with your hand while seating the rod in the desired hole on its underside. The long rod will lift in the inner hole (for high position, shown in Fig. 1 below) and the short rod into the outer hole (for the low position, shown in Fig. 2). Be sure you have seated the rod correctly, so that the lid will remain safely supported when open.

GETTING STARTED

Power Switch

Connect the power cord to the AC receptacle on the underside of the Andante CGP220. Standard AC current supplies the Andante CGP220's power. Before connecting the Andante CGP220's AC power cord, make sure that the power switch (located on the left, underneath the keyboard) is in the OFF position. Then connect the power cord to an AC outlet.

Turn power on by using the switch is located underneath the left of the keyboard.

The AC plug space will vary.

CAUTION: The CGP220 runs on AC power and works with voltages from 100 - 240 volts at 50-60 Hz. The voltage level is detected and set automatically by the CGP220. Do not attempt to connect to a non-standard AC power source.

While the unit is performing its power-up routine some of the front panel button LEDs will flash. After a couple of seconds, the display will read 1 Concert Piano. The Andante CGP220 is now ready to play.

Use the Quick Start instructions on the following pages for the basic steps to change Voices, play Rhythm Patterns, and play one of the 51 Demo Songs.

Sound and Volume

Before turning on the Andante CGP220, it's always a good idea to set the volume at its minimum setting (all the way to the left). For a generally comfortable level of volume while playing, set the knob at its middle position.

The Volume Control is located on the left side of the control panel. Turn this knob from left to right to increase the volume.

Headphone Jacks

The Andante CGP220 has two 1/4" headphone jacks conveniently located under the keyboard, near the left leg on the cabinet underside. Plugging in headphones provides privacy during practice.

OVERVIEW

Input/Output Panel

The Input/Output panel is located on the underside of the piano body, behind the power switch and headphone jacks.

Audio In and Audio Out

Audio Out (RCA jacks) may be used to connect the Andante CGP220 to external audio equipment, such as an outboard mixer, powered speakers, or recording device.

Audio In jacks are used to connect the Andante CGP220's internal speakers to other devices such as a digital audio player or CD player. Always turn off the Andante CGP220's power before plugging or unplugging cables into the Audio In jacks.

The Andante CGP220's Volume and Tone Controls do not affect the volume or tone of the sound coming from the Audio In jacks. Therefore it is best to use a device that has its own output level control and to use that to adjust the sound volume from the external device.

MIDI In, Out and Thru

Use the MIDI In, Out and Thru ports to connect the Andante CGP220 to other MIDI devices to receive and send MIDI data.

CC Pedal (Volume/Expression Pedal)

This jack is used to connect a continuous controller pedal for volume and expression control. Our keyboards require a pedal with a TRS 14" connector and 10k linear potentiometer. Most manufacturers EXCEPT Yamaha and Korg make pedals with the same specifications and should work. Yamaha and Korg pedals typically use an exponential potentiometer and therefore will not work correctly. The CC-1 pedal is available from Kurzwell. You can order a pedal through your local Kurzwell dealer.

USB

Connect a USB cable to this port to send and receive MIDI or to connect to a computer for system updates.

MIDI

About MIDI

MIDI is the acronym for Musical Instrument Digital Interface. It is the industry standard protocol which allows the exchange of musical data between electronic musical instruments, devices (such as a sequencer), and computers. MIDI enables MIDI-equipped devices designed by different manufacturers to communicate MIDI data to each other.

MIDI data is sent or received using standard MIDI cables to connect to other MIDI devices or a USB cable to connect to a computer. The Andante CGP220 is equipped with conventional MIDI In, Out and Thru ports, and a USB port. The current line of Kurzweil products have a standard class-compliant USB-MIDI implementation. They do not require the installation of any additional drivers.

MIDI Channels

Similar to television channels, MIDI protocol transmits multiple channels of MIDI performance data. Typical MIDI instruments can play up to 16 channels at the same time. Each channel can be assigned its own voice.

To change and/or assign MIDI channels, enter Function Mode and select the MIDI Channel parameter. See the MIDI Implementation chart at the end of this chapter for details.

MIDI In and Out and Thru Ports

The Andante CGP220 is equipped with the conventional MIDI In, Out and Thru ports. The MIDI In port is used to receive MIDI data from another MIDI device; the MIDI Out port is used to transmit the MIDI data generated by the Andante CGP220 to another MIDI device; the MIDI Thru port passes MIDI In data along to an external device.

When you connect the MIDI Out of the Andante CGP220 to the MIDI In of another instrument, you can play the sounds of both instruments simultaneously from the Andante CGP220's keyboard.

When you connect the MIDI In of the Andante CGP220 to the MIDI Out of another controller, you can control the Andante CGP220 using the other controller.

Depending on your system setup, you may want to use the Andante CGP220's MIDI thru port to pass MIDI information from a MIDI controller or computer sequencer to the Andante CGP220 and on to the next device in your system.

MIDI

USB MIDI Connection

In addition to the conventional MIDI In, Out and Thru ports, the Andante CGP220 also has a USB (Universal Serial Bus) port on the panel on the underside of the piano. You can connect the Andante CGP220 directly to a computer with a USB cable. This connection transmits and receives MIDI data between the Andante CGP220 and the computer,

The Andante CGP220 supports the "Plug and Play" feature used in the Windows XP or higher and Macintosh operating systems. No drivers are required to use this connection; but you may need to enable MIDI on your computer's sound and audio control panel.

To use the Andante CGP220 as a MIDI controller with a computer, use any Type-A to Type-B USB cable. By default, the Andante CGP220 acts as a MIDI controller (not a hard drive) when connected to a computer.

If you have a sequencer program installed on your computer, you can use this USB connection to record and play your music. The Andante CGP220's recorder is actually a simple sequencer and the performance you record into the Andante CGP220's memory is MIDI performance data. Using a computer-based sequencer program provides unlimited memory, editing, and the ability to post on the Internet.

Using Windows applications for MIDI control

Certain apps (like Windows Media Player - WMP) released with Windows Vista or later can no longer play MIDI songs triggering external MIDI devices; WMP is only routed to the internal Microsoft GS Synthesizer.

This means the MIDI app you choose to use must natively offer its own built-in MIDI mapping abilities. Most commercial MIDI software products for PC have a configuration screen which includes the MIDI device mapping necessary to route to an external MIDI device such as the Andante CGP220.
