ZTurn Power On
After making sure that the Clavinova’s AC plug is properly inserted into
a convenient AC wall outlet, press the [POWER] switch located to the left
of the keyboard to turn the power ON.
When the power is turned ON, the [PIANO 1] voice selector LED will
light (the PIANO 1 voice is automatically selected whenever the power is
turned ON).
Initially set the [MASTER VOLUME] control about half way between
the “MIN” and “MAX” settings. Then, when you start playing, re-adjust the
[MASTER VOLUME] control for the most comfortable listening level.
Select the desired voice by pressing one of the voice selectors.
The Clavinova also offers keyboard touch response, so the volume and
timbre of notes played can be controlled according to how “hard” you play
the keys. The amount of variation available depends on the selected voice.
You can also change the overall tone or add reverb and/or effects as de-
sired by using the [BRILLIANCE], [REVERB] and [EFFECT] buttons
(see page 8 for [BRILLIANCE] button operation, “Reverb” on page 9, and
“Effects” on page 10).
