When the power is initially turned ON, the [PIANO 1] voice selector LED will light. 2 [MASTER VOLUME] Control The [MASTER VOLUME] control adjusts the volume (level) of sound produced by the Clavinova's internal stereo sound system. The [MASTER VOLUME] control also adjusts headphone volume when a pair of headphones is plugged into the HEADPHONES jack (page 6). 3 [BRILLIANCE] Button This button can be used to change the tonality or "timbre" of the selected voice. Three settings are provided: MELLOW, NORMAL, and BRIGHT. To select one of these settings, press the [BRILLIANCE] button a few times until the indicator corresponding to the desired setting lights. The NORMAL setting produces the "normal" tone of the selected voice. The BRIGHT setting creates a brighter or "sharper" tone, while the MELLOW setting produces a "rounder" more mellow tone. Transpose keys (See page 12) Balance/Depth keys (See page 9, 10) 4 [REVERB] Button The [REVERB] button selects a number of digital reverb effects that you can use for extra depth and expressive power. ➪ See page 10 for details. 5 [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] Button The [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button allows access to the Clavinova's TRANSPOSE function (to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down), keyboard touch sensitivity adjustment, and MIDI functions. For details refer to "TRANSPOSITION" on page 12, "TOUCH SENSITIVITY" on page 12, and "MIDI FUNCTIONS" on page 14. 6 Voice Selectors The CLP-123 has eight voice selectors. Simply press any of the voice selectors to select the corresponding voice. The LED indicator above the voice selector will light to indicate which voice is currently selected. The CLP-123 also has a DUAL mode in which two voices can be played simultaneously across the full range of the keyboard - see page 9 for details. Note: The PIANO 1 voice is automatically selected whenever the [POWER] switch is initially turned ON. 4
