Song Playback
Here’s where all of the amazing voices, effects, rhythms, styles and other sophisticated features of
the Clavinova come together — in songs!
As you heard in the Demos, the Clavinova contains many built-in recordings. But there’s more. Call up the Song Open
(PRESET) display. And there’s an even greater wealth of song material you can enjoy with your Clavinova — in
commercially available software.
The following songs are compatible for playback on the CVP-210/208. Refer to pages 77, 162 for more details on the
logos.
