Normally the Clavinova will respond to MIDI control change data received from an external MIDI device or
keyboard, causing the selected Clavinova voice to be affected by pedal and other “control” settings received
from the controlling device. The Clavinova also transmits MIDI control change information when one of its
pedals are operated.
This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission if you do not want
the Clavinova voices to be affected by control change data received from an external device or vice versa.
●Control Change ON/OFF
ZHold down the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button.
XPress the [PIANO 3] voice selector. If the PIANO 3 LED is lit when
the [PIANO 3] voice selector is pressed, you have turned control
change reception/transmission OFF. If the PIANO 3 LED is not lit
when the [PIANO 3] voice selector is pressed, you have turned control
change reception/transmission ON.
CRelease the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button.
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. The Multi-Timbre mode can be activated as follows:
ZHold down the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button.
XPress the [CLAVINOVA TONE] voice selector. If the CLAVINOVA
TONE LED is lit when the [CLAVINOVA TONE] voice selector is
pressed, you have turned the Multi-Timbre mode ON. If the
CLAVINOVA TONE LED is not lit when the [CLAVINOVA TONE]
voice selector is pressed, you have turned the Multi-Timbre mode OFF.
CRelease the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button.

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.
●The MIDI Split & Left Local OFF Mode
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 left-hand
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 func-
tion described previously).
