The [MASTER VOLUME] control adjusts the volume (level) of
sound produced by the Clavinova’s internal stereo sound system. The
[MASTER VOLUME] control also adjusts headphone volume when a
pair of headphones is plugged into the PHONES jack (page 5).

This button accesses a range of utility functions — including the MIDI
functions — that significantly enhance versatility and playability. See
page 20 for details.

The [TRANSPOSE] button allows access to the Clavinova’s TRANS-
POSE function (to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in
semitone intervals).

Engages the split mode in the CLP-511, in which different voices can
be played on the left- and right-hand sections of the keyboard. See page 11
for details.
6 [REVERB] Button
The [REVERB] button selects a number of digital reverb effects that
you can use for extra depth and expressive power. See page 12 for details.
7 [EFFECT] Button
This button engages a chorus effect which can give your sound greater
depth and animation.
8 [TOUCH] Button
The [TOUCH] button makes it easy to adjust the touch response of the
Clavinova to match your playing style. See page 14 for details.
9 Voice Selectors & [VARIATION] Button
The CLP-411 has seven voice selectors and a [VARIATION] button,
and the CLP-511 has nine voice selectors and a [VARIATION] button.
Simply press any of the voice selectors to select the corresponding voice.
The voice selector LED will light to indicate which voice is currently
selected. Press the [VARIATION] button so that its indicator lights to
select a variation of the currently selected voice.
There is also a dual mode in which two voices can be played simulta-
neously across the full range of the keyboard (see page 10 for details), and
a split mode on the CLP-511 which allows different voices to be played
by the left and right hands (see page 11 for details).
