Making Global and Other Important Settings - Function About the Harmony Types When a normal Harmony type ("Standard Duet" through "Strum") is selected Split point Chords played to the left of the split point control the harmony. Harmony notes (based on the chord and the selected type) are automatically added to the melody played to the right of the split point. When "Multi Assign" is selected Multi Assign automatically assigns notes played simultaneously on the right-hand section of the keyboard to separate parts (voices). For example, if you play two consecutive notes, the first is played by the Main voice and the second by the Layer voice. When "Echo" is selected An echo effect is applied to the note played on the keyboard, in time with the currently set tempo. When "Tremolo" is selected A tremolo effect is applied to the note played on the keyboard, in time with the currently set tempo. When "Trill" is selected Two notes held on the keyboard are played alternately, in time with the currently set tempo. About the Harmony Assignments Multi This automatically assigns the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th added harmony notes to different parts (voices). For example, if the Main and Layer parts are turned on and the "Standard Duet" type is selected, the note you play on the keyboard will be played by the Main voice, and the added harmony note will be played by the Layer voice. Main Harmony is applied only to the Main part. Layer Harmony is applied only to the Layer part. When the Layer part is turned off, Harmony is not applied. Showing the Clavinova Display on a TV - Video Out The explanations here apply to step #3 of the procedure on page 133. Television VIDEO IN Set this to correspond to the standard used by your particular television/video equipment: NTSC or PAL. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 VIDEO OUT Determines the contents of the Video Out signal, or which data is sent to the video monitor. Lyrics........Only the lyrics of the song are output via VIDEO OUT, regardless of the display that is called up on the instrument itself. This lets you select other displays and still have the lyrics shown on the monitor. LCD ...........The currently selected display is output via VIDEO OUT. • Occasionally some flashing parallel lines may appear in the television or video monitor. This does not necessarily indicate that the monitor is malfunctioning. You may be able to remedy the situation by changing the Character Color or Background Color parameters. For optimum results, also try adjusting the color settings on the monitor itself. • Avoid looking at the television or video monitor for prolonged periods of time since doing so could damage your eyesight. Take frequent breaks and focus your eyes on distant objects to avoid eyestrain. • Keep in mind that even after adjusting all settings as recommended here, the monitor you are using may not show the Clavinova's display contents as expected (e.g., the display contents may not fit on the screen, the characters may not be completely clear, or the colors may be incorrect). 144 CVP-900
