MIDI Functions q The MIDI Split & Left Local OFF Mode In the MIDI split mode one section of the Clavinova keyboard is used to play a Clavinova voice in the normal way, while the remaining section is used to play a second MIDI keyboard or tone generator such as the Yamaha DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit. In this mode the right-hand section of the keyboard is used to play an internal Clavinova voice, while the left-hand section of the keyboard plays the external keyboard or tone generator. Playing the left-hand section of the keyboard produces no sound from the Clavinova. The "split point," or the key that divides the left- and right-hand sections of the keyboard can be set at any desired key.

When the MIDI split mode is activated, notes played on the left-hand section are transmitted via the Clavinova MIDI OUT connector on MIDI channel 2. Notes played on the right-hand section are transmitted on the "basic channel" (i.e. the channel set using the MIDI channel selection function described previously).

V To return to the normal full-keyboard mode, hold the [MIDI/TRANS- POSE] button and press the [ORGAN] voice selector, then release both buttons. Left-hand section plays a DOU-10 bass voice. Right-hand section plays a Clavinova piano voice. NOTE • When the power is turned ON the default split point key - F#2 - will be automatically selected.
