Four different types of keyboard touch sensitivity — HARD, MEDIUM, SOFT or FIXED —
can be selected to match different playing styles and preferences. The different touch sen-
sitivity settings are selected by using the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] and [REVERB] buttons.
Touch Sensitivity
* Pressing the C3 key produces normal keyboard pitch. Pressing the key to the left of C3 (B2) transposes the pitch
of the keyboard down a semitone, the next key to the left (Bb2) transposes down a whole tone (two semitones),
etc., down to the F#2 key which transposes down 6 semitones. Upward transposition is accomplished in the
same way using the keys to the right of C3, up to F#3 which transposes up 6 semitones.
NOTE
• Notes below and above the A-1 — C7 of the Clavinova sound one oc-
tave higher and lower, respectively.
HARD (ROOM indicator) ...........The HARD setting requires the keys to be played quite hard to produce maxi-
mum loudness.
MEDIUM (HALL 1 indicator)......The MEDIUM setting produces a fairly “standard” keyboard response. This is
the initial factory default setting.
SOFT (HALL 2 indicator) ...........The SOFT setting allows maximum loudness to be produced with relatively
light key pressure.
FIXED (No indicator lit) ..............All notes are produced at the same volume no matter how hard the keyboard is
played. This is an ideal setting for voices which normally have no keyboard
sensitivity (i.e. harpsichord and organ).
To select a touch sensitivity setting press the [REVERB] button a few
times while holding the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button until the indicator
corresponding to the desired setting lights.

● Memorizing the Touch Sen-
sitivity Setting
Press the C7 key while holding the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] and
[REVERB] button to memorize the current touch sensitivity setting. The
memorized setting will be retained in memory for about one week after the
power is turned off, then the default setting (MEDIUM) will be restored. To
keep the memorized setting for longer periods, turn the power on briefly at
least once a week.
If this setting is not memorized as described above, it is retained in
memory only until the Clavinova is turned off.

The Clavinova’s TRANSPOSE function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire key-
board up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of six semitones. “Transposing” the
pitch of the Clavinova keyboard facilitates playing in difficult key signatures, and you can easily
match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instrumentalist.
Transposition
The [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button and keys F#2 through F#3 on the keyboard are used for transposition.
Z Press and hold the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button.
X Press a key between F#2 and F#3 according to the desired amount of
transposition.*
C Release the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button.
