Connections
1AUX IN L/L+R and R Jacks
These jacks are intended for use with an external tone generator module
such as the Yamaha DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit. The stereo outputs from
the external tone generator module are connected to the AUX IN L/L+R
and R jacks, allowing the sound of the tone generator to be reproduced via
the Clavinova’s internal sound system and speakers. A line-level mono
source can be connected to the L/L+R jack.
•The input signal from the AUX IN jacks is controlled by the Clavinova’s volume
and brilliance (CLP-880/860/840) controls. Reverb and effect (CLP-880/860/
840) functions will have no affect.
•The input signal from the AUX IN jacks is delivered to the AUX OUT jacks.
2AUX OUT L/L+R and R Jacks
The AUX OUT L/L+R and R jacks deliver the output of the Clavinova for
connection to an instrument amplifier, mixing console, PA system, or recording
equipment. If you will be connecting the Clavinova to a monaural sound
system, use only the L/L+R jack. When a plug is inserted into the L/L+R jack
only, the left- and right-channel signals are combined and delivered via the L/
L+R jack so you don’t lose any of the Clavinova’s sound.
•The AUX OUT jack signal must never be returned to the AUX IN jacks, either
directly or through external equipment.
•The AUX OUT jack signal is not controlled by the Clavinova’s volume control.
Use the volume control on the external audio equipment to adjust the level.
3PEDAL Jack
This terminal is for connecting the pedal cord from the pedal box (refer
to the “Keyboard Stand Assembly” on pages 48-67).
4MIDI IN, THRU and OUT Connectors
The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external MIDI
device (such as the DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit) which can be used to
control the Clavinova. The MIDI THRU connector re-transmits any data
received at the MIDI IN connector, allowing “chaining” of several MIDI
instruments or other devices. The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI
data generated by the Clavinova (e.g. note and velocity data produced by
playing the Clavinova keyboard).
More details on MIDI are given in “MIDI Functions” on page 34.
5TO HOST Connector & HOST SELECT Switch
This jack and selector switch allow direct connection to a personal
computer for sequencing and other music applications — without the need
for a separate MIDI interface. See page 38 for details.
●PHONES Jacks (Bottom Panel)
Two sets of standard stereo headphones can be plugged in here for
private practice or late-night playing. The internal speaker system is auto-
matically shut off when a pair of headphones is plugged into either of the
PHONES jacks.
