Voice Selection
The Keyboard & Polyphony
The CVP-69/69A/59S can play up to 32 notes at once while the CVP-79A can play up to 64. This number
includes all notes being played at the same time in any single or combination use of dual, split, accompani-
ment, and disk functions. Further variation occurs with “1-element” and “2-element” voices: the polyphony is
halved with 2-element voices. The same applies to stereo voices. The voice list on page 116 shows all stereo,
2-element, and 1-element voices in the CVP-79A/69/69A/59S.
The Clavinova also offers keyboard touch response, so the volume and timbre of notes played can be con-
trolled according to how “hard” you play the keys. The amount of variation available depends on the selected
voice and the setting of the TOUCH SENSITIVITY parameter (page 91).
Keyboard Percussion
The Clavinova has 8 Drum Kits in the [DRUMS/PERC.] voice group
which includes a range of drum and percussion voices as well as sound
effects. When one of the Drum Kit voices is selected, you can play 72
different drums and percussion instruments on the keyboard. The drums
and percussion instruments played by the various keys when the Stand-
ard Kit is selected are marked by symbols above the keys.
See page 121 for a complete list of the instruments in each Drum Kit.
• When a Drum Kit voice is selected only
the keys with drum or percussion
symbols printed above them will
sound.
• The TRANSPOSE, TUNE, and OC-
TAVE SHIFT functions described on
pages 91 and 92 do not affect the
Drum Kit voices.
