Quick Guide Setting the touch sensitivity of the keyboard You can adjust the touch response of the instrument (how the sound responds to the way you play the keys). The touch sensitivity type becomes the common setting for all Voices. 1 Call up the operation display: [FUNCTION] → [D] CONTROLLER → TAB [®] KEYBOARD/ PANEL → [A] 1 INITIAL TOUCH 2 Press the [1π†]/[2π†] buttons to specify the touch response. HARD 2 ..... Requires strong playing to produce high volume. Best for players with a heavy touch. HARD 1 ..... Requires moderately strong playing for high volume. NORMAL... Standard touch response. SOFT 1....... Produces high volume with moderate playing strength. SOFT 2....... Produces relatively high volume even with light play- ing strength. Best for players with a light touch. n • This setting does not change the weight of the keyboard. • When you do not want to apply touch sensitivity, set Touch to OFF for the corresponding parts by pressing the [5†]-[7†] buttons. When Touch is set to OFF, you can specify the fixed volume level by pressing the [4π†] button. Using the Pedals The Clavinova features three pedals. Left Pedal Damper Pedal Sostenuto Pedal ● Damper Pedal (Right) The damper pedal performs the same function as the damper pedal on an actual acoustic piano, letting you sustain the sound of the voices even after releasing the keys. n • Some Voices may sound continuously or have a long decay after the notes have been released while the damper pedal is held. • Certain Voices in the "PERCUSSION & DRUM KIT," "GM&XG" and "GM2" groups may not be affected by use of the damper pedal. ● Sostenuto Pedal (Center) If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal while holding the note(s), the notes will sustain as long as the pedal is held. All subsequent notes will not sustain. When you press the damper pedal here, the notes you play before you release the pedal have a longer sustain. n • Certain Voices, such as [STRINGS] or [BRASS], sustain continuously when the sostenuto pedal is pressed. • Certain Voices in the "PERCUSSION & DRUM KIT", "GM&XG" and "GM2" groups may not be affected by use of the sostenuto pedal. When you press the sostenuto pedal here while holding the note(s), the notes will sustain as long as you hold the pedal. ● Left Pedal When the Piano voice is selected, pressing this pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of the notes you play. The settings assigned to this pedal may differ depending on the selected Voice. n The depth of the left pedal effect can be adjusted (page 91). CVP-305/303/301 Owner's Manual 29
