Demonstration tunes are provided that effectively demonstrate each of the
Clavinova’s voices. There are also 30 piano songs that you can play individually,
all in sequence, or in random order. Here’s how you can select and play the
demo tunes.
Playing the Demonstration Tunes
Engage the Demo Mode .........................................................................
Play a Voice Demo or Piano Song ...............................................
Voice Demo Playback
Press one of the voice selectors to start playback of the corresponding voice
demo tune — featuring the voice normally selected by that voice selector
button. The indicator of the selected voice selector button will flash during
playback, and “---” (relative tempo) will appear on the LED display. You can
start playback of any other voice demo tune during playback by simply
pressing the corresponding voice selector. You can stop playback at any time
by pressing the [START/STOP] button, the voice selector of the currently
playing demo.
Piano Song Playback
To play any of the 30 piano songs provided, use the [TEMPO/SONG] buttons to
select the number of the tune you want to play (the number will appear on the
LED display), then press the [START/STOP] button. Playback will stop automati-
cally when playback of the selected piano song has finished. To randomly select
and play one of the piano songs press the [VARIATION] button while playback is
stopped.
Select “ALL” instead of a number to play all piano songs and voice demo
tunes in sequence, or select “rnd” to continuously play all piano songs and
voice demo tunes in random order. The [VARIATION] button indicator will
flash during playback. Press the [START/STOP] button to stop playback. If a
voice selector is pressed while “ALL” is showing on the display, playback will
begin from the corresponding song.
While a voice demo or piano song is playing, you can use the [TEMPO/
SONG] buttons to adjust the playback tempo as required. This produces a
relative tempo variation, with a range from “-99” through “---” to “99”.
Use the [MASTER VOLUME] control to adjust the volume.
The demo mode cannot be engaged while the recorder (page 19) is in
use.
The default tempo is automatically selected whenever a new song is
selected, or playback of a new song begins during “
ALL
” or “
rnd
playback.
No MIDI reception occurs in the demo mode.
The demo/piano song data is not transmitted via the MIDI connectors.
* See page 48 for a complete listing of the demo tunes.
