Advanced Operations Playing Various Musical Instrument Sounds (Voices) Selecting a Voice To select "CFX Grand": Simply press [PIANO/VOICE]. To select another Voice: After pressing [PIANO/VOICE], press [+R] or [-L] to select the next or previous Voice. NOTE To hear the characteristics of the Voices, play back the Demo Songs (page 19). To select a specific Voice: While holding down [PIANO/VOICE], press one of the C1 - A1 keys. For details on which Voice is assigned to each key, see the list below. C♯1 D♯1 F♯1 G♯1 Lowest key C1 D1 E1 F1 G1 A1 Voice List Key Voice Name Voice description CFX Grand Yamaha's CFX flagship concert grand piano sound with a wide dynamic range for maximum expressive control. Suitable for playing in any music genre and style. C1 Yamaha's CFX flagship concert grand piano sound sampled by Binaural Sampling, the method Binaural CFX optimized for headphone use. Listening this through headphones gives the impression of being Grand immersed in the sound, as if it was actually emanating from the piano. This Voice is selected automatically when headphones are connected. C♯1 Bösendorfer The famed sound of the Vienna-made Bösendorfer full concert grand piano. Its spacious sound evokes the size of the instrument, and is ideal for expressing tenderness in compositions. D1 Pop Grand Bright piano sound. Good for clear expression and "cutting through" other instruments in an ensemble. D♯1 Stage E.Piano The sound of an electric piano using hammer-struck metallic "tines." Soft tone when played lightly, and an aggressive tone when played hard. E1 DX E.Piano An electronic piano sound created by FM synthesis. Good for standard popular music. F1 Harpsichord F♯1 Vibraphone G1 Pipe Organ The definitive instrument for baroque music. Since harpsichord uses plucked strings, there is no touch response. There is, however, a characteristic additional sound when the keys are released. Vibraphone played with relatively soft mallets. The tone becomes more metallic the harder you play. This is a typical pipe organ sound (8 feet + 4 feet + 2 feet). Good for sacred music from the Baroque period. G♯1 Jazz Organ The sound of a "tonewheel" type electric organ. Often heard in jazz and rock music. The rotary speed of the rotary speaker effect can be switched by using the left pedal. A1 Strings Stereo-sampled, large-scale strings ensemble with realistic reverb. Try combining this Voice with piano in the Dual mode. 18 CLP-625 Owner's Manual
