The Connectors Although the Clavinova is a self-contained musical instrument that simply be plugged into the AC mains outlet and played, it also features a number of connectors for system expansion. s AUX IN L/L+R and R Jacks AUX IN R L/L+R Tone Generator These jacks are intended primarily for use with external synthesizers or tone generator modules. For example, the outputs of the synthesizer/tone generator can be to the Clavinova AUX IN jacks, allowing the sound of the synthesizer/tone generator to be reproduced via the Clavinova's internal amplifier and speaker system. For monaural signal input (when the connected device is monaural), use only the L/ L+R jack. s AUX OUT L/L+R and R Jacks AUX OUT R L/L+R Stereo System The AUX OUT L/L+R and R jacks deliver the output of the Clavinova for connection to an instrument amplifier, mixing console, PA system, or recording equipment. If you will be connecting the Clavinova to a monaural sound system, use only the L/L+R jack. When a plug is inserted into the L/L+R jack only, the left- and right-channel signals are combined and delivered via the L/L+R jack so you don't lose any of the Clavinova's sound. • The input signal from the AUX IN jacks is delivered to the AUX OUT jacks, but is not affected by the Clavinova's volume control or reverb effect. • The AUX OUT jack signal must never be returned to the AUX IN jacks, either directly or through external equipment. s MIDI IN, THRU and OUT Connectors (MIDI IN and OUT on the CVP-59S CVP-79A/69/69A MIDI IN OUT THRU MIDI Sequencer Tone Generator The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external MIDI device (such as a synthesizer, sequencer, music computer, etc.) which can be used to control the Clavinova. The MIDI THRU connector provided on the CVP-79A, 69, and 69A re-transmits any data received at the MIDI IN connector, allowing "chaining" of several MIDI instruments or other devices. The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI data generated by the Clavinova (e.g. note and velocity data produced by playing the Clavinova keyboard). s EXP PEDAL Jack (CVP-79A An optional Yamaha FC7 Foot Controller can be plugged into this jack for foot volume (expression) EXP PEDAL control of the keyboard sound only (i.e. expression doesn't affect the auto-accompaniment sound or disk playback). Press the pedal forward to increase volume, and backward to decrease volume. 113
