tails.

6 [TOUCH SENSITIVITY] Button

The [TOUCH SENSITIVITY] button selects four

different types of keyboard touch sensitivity — HARD,

ing styles and preferences. See page 11 for details.

7 [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] Button

The [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button allows access to the

Clavinova’s TRANSPOSE function (to shift the pitch

of the entire keyboard up or down) and MIDI functions.

For details refer to the “TRANSPOSITION” and

“MIDI FUNCTIONS” sections on pages 11 and 18,

respectively.

8 Voice Selectors

The CLP-157 has ten voice selectors. Simply press any

of the voice selectors to select the corresponding voice.

The voice selector LED will light to indicate which

voice is currently selected.

The CLP-157 also has a DUAL mode in which two

voices can be played simultaneously across the full

range of the keyboard — see page 7 for details.

NOTE

• The PIANO 1 voice is automatically selected

whenever the [POWER] switch is initially turned

ON.

9 [METRONOME] Button

Turns the metronome sound on and off. The TEMPO

[s] and [t] buttons, below, are used to set the tempo

of the metronome sound — see page 13 for details.

0 TEMPO [t] and [s] Buttons

These buttons adjust the tempo of the CLP-157 metro-

nome function as well as the playback tempo of the

recorder function. The tempo range is from 32 to 280

quarter-note beats per minute.

! TEMPO Display

This 3-digit LED display normally shows the current

tempo in quarter-note beats per minute. When the Met-

ronome or Recorder record or play functions are in

operation it displays the current measure number.

These buttons control the CLP-157 2-track recorder,

4,200 notes. See page 14 for details.
