Questions about Operations
and Functions
The buttons do not respond.
While you are using a function, some buttons not
used for the function are disabled. If the song is
playing, stop the playback. Otherwise, press the
[EXIT] button to return to the main screen. Then,
perform the desired operation.
The sound sustains and does not decay when I
press the sostenuto pedal.
With the voices in the ORGAN or STRINGS/
CHOIR group, the sound continues sustaining
while you are holding down the sostenuto pedal.
Higher or lower notes does not sound correctly
when the transpose or octave setting is made.
The setting range for the transposition and octave
setting is C2 - G8. (With the normal setting, the
Clavinova’s 88 keys covers the range of A1 - C7.) If
the lowest key is set to a note lower than C2, it will
produce a sound one octave higher. If the highest
key is set to a note higher than G8, it will produce a
sound one octave lower.
How can I return to the recording or song select
screen during song recording or playback?
Press one of the SONG SELECT ^ ] or but­
tons once.
The tempo does not change even though I
recorded with tempo changes.
Depending on the timing of tempo changes, the
changed tempo may not be recorded. In this case,
the recording will be played back at the original
tempo.
Make tempo changes when the recording track is
selected and a red track indicator is flashing. The
same trick applies to editing the tempo after record­
ing.
Performance in Dual or Split mode is not
recorded.
Track data is lost unexpectedly.
For Dual or Split mode recording, the recording
track for the second voice (that is, the voice for the
left-hand part) is automatically assigned (page 46).
Therefore, if the track already has data, the data will
be overwritten during recording. Also, switching to
Dual mode or Split mode in the middle of the song
is not recorded. Therefore, the notes you played
with the second voice (or the notes lower than the
Split point) are not recorded.
What type of data is recorded?
Data recorded in the tracks:
• Note data (notes you play)
• Voice selection
• Clavinova pedals and external pedals on/off
• Reverb depth “ReverbSend”
• Chorus depth “ChorusSend”
• Variation effect depth “VariationSend”
• Voice octave setting “Octave”
• Voice volume level “Volume”
• Stereo image of each voice “Pan”
• Fine tuning of two voice pitch (Dual mode)
“Detune”
• Volume level changes for each voice with
response to the way you play “TouchSense”
Data recorded globally in all tracks:
• Tempo
• Time signature
• Reverb type
• Chorus type
• Variation effect type
You can change all data except for note data after record­
ing.
You can change the time signature at the beginning of the
song, or at a position in the song to which you move, by
using the B [-]/[+] buttons while the song is stopped.
