These jacks are intended for use with an external tone generator module
such as the Yamaha DOM-30 Disk Orchestra Module. The stereo outputs
from the external tone generator module are connected to the OPTIONAL
IN L and R jacks, allowing the sound of the tone generator to be reproduced
via the Clavinova’s internal sound system and speakers.
The AUX OUT R and L/L+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 deliv-
ered via the L/L+R jack so you don’t lose any of the Clavinova’s sound.
The Internal Amplifier & Speaker System
The CLP-124 features a powerful stereo amplifier delivering 50 watts per channel,
driving a speaker system that puts out exceptionally rich sound with natural re-
sponse from powerful lows to shimmering highs. The speaker system includes
two 16-centimeter speaker units, two 10-centimeter units, and two 5-centimeters
speaker units.
Note: The AUX OUT jack signal must never be returned to the OPTIONAL IN jacks,
either directly or through external equipment.
The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external MIDI de-
vice (such as the DRC-20 Disk Recorder, or DOM-30 Disk Orchestra Mod-
ule) which can be used to control the Clavinova. The MIDI THRU connec-
tor 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 16.
