Touch Sensitivity Four different types of keyboard touch sensitivity - HARD, MEDIUM, SOFT or FIXED - can be selected to match different playing styles and preferences. HARD MEDIUM SOFT FIXED TOUCH To select a touch sensitivity type press the [TOUCH] button a few times until the indicator corresponding to the desired type lights (the indicators light in sequence each time the [TOUCH] button is pressed). HARD The HARD setting requires the keys to be played quite hard to produce maximum loudness. MEDIUM The MEDIUM setting produces a fairly "standard" keyboard response. This is the initial factory default setting. SOFT The SOFT setting 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. This is an ideal setting for voices which normally have no keyboard sensitivity (i.e. harpsichord and organ). The volume of notes played in the FIXED mode can be set by using the [-/NO] and [+/YES] buttons while the [TOUCH] button is held (the current volume level appears on the display). The volume range is from 1 through 127. The default setting is 64. Transposition The Clavinova's TRANSPOSE function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of 12 semitones (i.e. a maximum of one octave up or down). "Transposing" the pitch of the Clavinova keyboard facilitates playing in difficult key signatures, and you can easily match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instrumentalist. TRANSPOSE TEMPO/ SONG - / NO +/ YES Use the [-/NO] or [+/YES] button while holding the [TRANSPOSE] button to transpose down or up as required. The transposition range is from "-12" (down one octave) through "0" (normal pitch) to "12" (up one octave). The amount of transposition appears on the LED display while the [TRANSPOSE] button is held. The default transpose setting is "0". NOTE • The [TRANSPOSE] button indicator remains lit when a transpose setting other than "0" is selected. • Notes below and above the A-1 ... C7 range of the Clavinova sound one octave higher and lower, respectively. 14
