The Keyboard & Polyphony
The Clavinova has “32-note polyphony” which means you can normally play up to 32 notes at once.
This number varies, however, according to the functions being used, as shown in the chart below:
Keyboard only 32 notes.
Keyboard + rhythm 24 notes (rhythm uses 8).
Keyboard + ABC 12 notes (rhythm 8; ABC 12).
The following voices are STEREO:
• No.1 PIANO
• No.8 ORGAN
• No.28 FULL ORGAN
• No.34 PIANO BRIGHT
• No.35 PIANO SOFT
The following voices feature VELOCITY SWITCHING
(i.e. they sound different when played soft or loud).
• No.3 E.PIANO
• No.11 ELEC BASS
● The number of available notes is further reduced if the dual
mode, the performance memory, or a Disk Orchestra Collec-
tion disk is being played at the same time.
The Clavinova also offers keyboard touch response, so the
volume and timbre of notes played can be controlled accord-
ing to how “hard” you play the keys. The amount of variation
available depends on the selected voice.
NOTES
• Some voices have greater polyphony than shown in the above chart.
Further, some dual-mode and split-mode voice combinations provide 64-
note total polyphony (32 notes per voice).
Pan
● The pan (stereo) position of the voice played on the key-
board can be adjusted by moving the RHYTHM volume
control while holding the [UTILITY] button. The pan
position is shown on the display, from “LEFT 6” for full
left at the “MIN” control position, through “CENTER” for
center, to “RIGHT 6” for full right at the “MAX” control
position. This can be used to produce a broader ensemble
sound with the Performance Memory multitrack recording
feature.
Each voice has a preset pan setting (indicated by “KEY-
BOARD” on the display) which is automatically set when
the power is first turned on.
The pan settings are as follows:
NOTES
• The “KEYBOARD” default keyboard scale pan places the treble-regis-
ter sound to the right and the bass-register sound to the left. Using a
different PAN setting places the entire voice, low and high notes in-
cluded, at the same position.
• The DRUMS voice has a preset PAN setting which cannot be changed.
