Touch Sensitivity Four different types of keyboard touch sensitivity - HARD, MEDIUM, SOFT or FIXED - can be selected to match different playing styles and preferences. The different touch sensitivity settings are selected by using the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] and [REVERB] buttons. HARD (ROOM indicator The HARD setting requires the keys to be played quite hard to produce maximum loudness. MEDIUM (HALL 1 indicator) ...... The MEDIUM setting produces a fairly "standard" keyboard response. This is the initial factory default setting. SOFT (HALL 2 indicator The SOFT setting allows maximum loudness to be produced with relatively light key pressure. FIXED (No indicator lit All notes are produced at the same volume no matter how hard the keyboard is REVERB ROOM HALL 1 HALL 2 COSMIC MIDI/ TRANSPOSE played. This is an ideal setting for voices which normally have no keyboard sensitivity (i.e. harpsichord and organ). To select a touch sensitivity setting press the [REVERB] button a few times while holding the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button until the indicator corresponding to the desired setting lights. q Memorizing the Touch Sensitivity Setting REVERB C7 ROOM HALL 1 HALL 2 COSMIC MIDI/ TRANSPOSE Press the C7 key while holding the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] and [REVERB] button to memorize the current touch sensitivity setting. The memorized setting will be retained in memory for about one week after the power is turned off, then the default setting (MEDIUM) will be restored. To keep the memorized setting for longer periods, turn the power on briefly at least once a week. If this setting is not memorized as described above, it is retained in memory only until the Clavinova is turned off. Transposition The Clavinova's TRANSPOSE function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of six semitones. "Transposing" the pitch of the Clavinova keyboard facilitates playing in difficult key signatures, and you can easily match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instrumentalist. The [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button and keys F#2 through F#3 on the keyboard are used for transposition. MIDI/ TRANSPOSE F#2 C3 F#3 -6 -4 -2 +1 +3 +6 -5 -3 -1 0 +2 +4 +5 Transpose Transpose down. up. Normal pitch. Z Press and hold the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button. X Press a key between F#2 and F#3 according to the desired amount of transposition.* C Release the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button. * Pressing the C3 key produces normal keyboard pitch. Pressing the key to the left of C3 (B2) transposes the pitch of the keyboard down a semitone, the next key to the left (Bb2) transposes down a whole tone (two semitones), etc., down to the F#2 key which transposes down 6 semitones. Upward transposition is accomplished in the same way using the keys to the right of C3, up to F#3 which transposes up 6 semitones. NOTE • Notes below and above the A-1 - C7 of the Clavinova sound one octave higher and lower, respectively. 10
