CLP-811/611 Configuration Functions (FUNCTION mode)
F11.Damper (Number of damper-pedal levels)
Under normal settings, the length of the damper
pedal’s sustain effect varies according to how far
you displace the pedal — the harder you step
down, the longer the notes are held. You use
function F11 to set the number of discrete dis-
placement levels recognized by the Clavinova.
You may find this feature useful during record-
ing: setting the value to “2” (pedal ON/OFF only)
can reduce the amount of data generated by pedal
action, allowing you to record a longer series of
notes.
1 To access this item, enter FUNCTION mode and go to
main function F11.
2 Press [-/NO] or [+/YES] to change the setting.
Values: 2, 8, 128 (levels)
Default: 8
F12.CancelVol (Volume of muted piano-song track)
When playing one of the Clavinova’s 30 built-in
piano songs, you can elect to switch off either part
(left-hand or right-hand) so that you can practice
along. Under default settings, the Clavinova
continues to play back the deselected part at a low
volume to serve as a practice guide. You can use
the F12 setting to make this playback louder or
softer, or to switch it off entirely.
1 To access this setting, enter FUNCTION mode and go
to main function F12.
2 Press [-/NO] or [+/YES] to change the setting.
Values: 0,...,20
Default: 5
F13.MIDIFunc. (MIDI settings)
This function sets up the various MIDI param-
eters. For general information about your
Clavinova’s MIDI support, refer to “MIDI Data
Format” on page 48.
1 To access these settings, enter [FUNCTION] mode
and go to main function F13.
2 Next, press [+/YES] to enter the subfunction group.
Then use [t], [s] to move among the different
subfunctions, and [-/NO], [+/YES] to set the values.
Subfunctions
13.1 TxCh. (MIDI transmitting channel)
Values: 1,...,16; OFF
Default: 1
Selects the channel the Clavinova uses to transmit perform-
ance-related messages to external MIDI devices. (Only devices
set to receive on this channel will respond to these messages.)
For DUAL and SPLIT mode play...
If TxCh is set to any value other than OFF, the Clavinova
will always use Channel 2 to transmit data from Voice 2 (in
DUAL mode) or from the left zone (in SPLIT mode). If the
setting is OFF, the Clavinova will not transmit any data for
either voice.
The Clavinova does not transmit data for demo songs, piano
songs, and recorded performances.
13.2 RxCH. (MIDI receiving channel)
Values: ALL; 1&2; 1,...,16
Default: ALL
Selects the channel the Clavinova uses to receive performance-
related messages from external MIDI devices. The Clavinova
will not recognize any messages received over non-selected
channels.
If setting is ALL
The Clavinova operates as a multitimbral playback device,
responding indepently to messages over all channels. This
setting is ideal when you want to use a sequencer to drive a
multivoice arrangement.
If setting is 1&2
The Clavinova responds to messages received over channels
1 and 2 only.
Panel settings and keyboard play are not affected by received
MIDI data (with the exception of MIDI data for reverb type,
reverb depth, and effect type).
The Clavinova does not receive MIDI messages when
operating in DEMO/PIANO SONG mode.
