Yamaha DGC1B manual Adjusting the Volume

Adjusting the Volume

You can adjust volume with the Control Unit or with the remote control as described below. Since all piano songs are recorded at the maximum volume level of 0, volume can be decreased down to –10, the softest volume at which the piano can play.

For Ensemble songs, the volume of the piano and internal XG tone generator are adjusted simultaneously, so it is a good idea to first balance the volume of the piano and XG tone generator.

See “Balancing the Ensemble Volume (TG Master Balance)” on page 25.

For songs on PianoSoft.PlusAudio, you should first balance the volume of the MIDI piano and Audio parts.

See “Balancing the CD Volume (CD Master Balance)” on page 26.

The LED volume level indicators show volume levels in the manner shown below. For example, when two consecutive indicators are lit, the volume level is between these two levels.

Note: Make sure the VOLUME knob on the Amplifier is set to an appropriately audible level. If the volume knob on the Amplifier is turned fully counterclockwise, no sound may be produced even when you adjust the volume on the Control Unit.

Once you set the volume of the Amplifier, you do not need to adjust it frequently.

The volume level setting is saved when another song is selected, another disk inserted or selected, or when the Disklavier is turned off.

Note: This setting does not affect manual playing.

Note: When the volume is set to -10, there may be a slight delay in sound production following key strokes, and the Disklavier may skip some notes. Furthermore, at this volume setting, touch strength does not affect note dynamics.
