Selecting and Playing Voices
Your Clavinova offers you an excellent selection of great-sounding voices (11 voices on
model CLP-611, 12 voices on model CLP-811). You can use the VARIATION, BRIL-
LIANCE, REVERB, and EFFECT features to vary the sound and feel of each voice.
The Clavinova also allows you to mix any two voices together (“DUAL mode”), and to
select different voices for the right and left ranges of the keyboard (“SPLIT mode”). A
built-in metronome is also provided.
