MIDI Functions The Multi-Timbre Mode ... The Multi-Timbre mode is a special mode in which the Clavinova voices can be independently controlled on different MIDI channel numbers by an external MIDI device.

X Press the [HARPSICHORD] voice selector. If the HARPSI- CHORD LED is lit when the [HARPSICHORD] voice selector is pressed, you have turned the Multi-Timbre mode ON. If the HARPSICHORD LED is not lit when the [HARPSICHORD] voice selector is pressed, you have turned the Multi-Timbre mode OFF. C Release the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button. 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. PSI- PIPE RD ORGAN MIDI/TRANSPOSE SPLIT POINT w Left-hand section plays a DOU-10 bass voice. Right-hand section plays a Clavinova piano voice. MIDI OUT AUX IN OUT PUT MIDI L R R L IN DOU-10 Clavinova (Set to receive on MIDI channel 2) The MIDI split mode is useful if, for example, you want to play a piano (Clavinova) voice with the right hand while playing a synthesizer bass line or string section with the left hand. When the MIDI split mode is activated, notes played on the lefthand 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). Z Press the [PIPE ORGAN] voice selector while holding down the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button. The PIPE ORGAN LED will flash. X While still holding the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button, press the key on the keyboard at which you want to set the split point. The PIPE ORGAN LED will light continuously. The split-point becomes the first key of the left-hand section. C Release the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button. V To return to the normal full-keyboard mode, hold the [MIDI/ TRANSPOSE] button and press the [PIPE ORGAN] voice selector, then release both buttons. NOTE • When the power is turned ON the default split point key - F#2 - will be automatically selected. If a new split point is selected it remains active until the power is turned OFF or a different split point is selected. Bulk Data Dump ...
