50 MIDI Functions s MIDI Clock Select This function determines whether the Clavinova's rhythm and ABC timing is controlled by the Clavinova's own internal clock or an external MIDI clock signal received from external equipment connected to the MIDI IN connector. The Clock Mode is automatically set to INTERNAL when the power is initially turned on. ORGAN = EXTERNAL. ORGAN = INTERNAL. ZHold [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] and press the [ORGAN]. XRelease [MIDI/TRANSPOSE]. NOTES • If the Clock Mode is set to EXTERNAL and a MIDI clock signal is not being received from an external source, the rhythm, ABC and other clock-dependent features will not operate. s Panel Data Send This function causes all the current Clavinova panel settings (selected voice, etc) to be transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector. This is particularly useful if you will be recording performances to a MIDI sequence recorder which will be used to control the Clavinova on playback. By transmitting the Clavinova panel settings and recording them on the MIDI sequence recorder prior to the actual performance data, the Clavinova will be automatically restored to the same settings when the performance is played back. ZHold [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] and press [CHOIR]. XRelease [MIDI/TRANSPOSE]. s MIDI Transpose Transmit This function transposes the pitch of transmitted MIDI note data up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of six semitones. The pitch of notes played on the keyboard is not affected. Display t-6 t-5 t-4 t-3 t-2 t-1 t-0 t-1 t-2 t-3 t-4 t-5 t-6 Transposition -6 semitones -5 semitones -4 semitones -3 semitones -2 semitones -1 semitone Normal +1 semitone +2 semitones +3 semitones +4 semitones +5 semitones +6 semitones ZHold [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] and press [UPRIGHT BASS]. XUse the TEMPO [v] and [w] buttons to select the desired degree of transposition while holding the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button. The amount of transposition selected is shown on the TEMPO display. CRelease [MIDI/TRANSPOSE]. NOTES • Press the TEMPO [v] and [w] buttons simultaneously while holding the [MIDI/ TRANSPOSE] button to restore normal transmitted pitch. • Transpose is always set to Normal when the power is turned on. s The Clavinova Common Voice Mode This mode is similar to the Multi-Timbre Mode described on page 49, but MIDI program change numbers received on all channels are converted to Yamaha Clavinova Common Voice Numbers. MIDI program change numbers transmit- ted when the panel voice selectors are operated are also converted to the common voice numbers. The Clavinova Common Voice mode is always off when the power is initially turned on. It can be activated as fol- lows: ELEC BASS = Common Voice mode ON. ELEC BASS = Common Voice mode ZHold [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] and press [ELEC BASS]. XRelease [MIDI/TRANSPOSE]. OFF. NOTES • The panel voices you play on the keyboard are not converted to the Clavinova Common Voices in this mode.
