Effect Functions
01: Transpose
The Transpose function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard
up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of six semitones. “Transposing” the
pitch of the Clavinova keyboard makes it easier to play in difficult key signatures, and
you can simply match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instru-
mentalist.
Once the Transpose function has been selected, use the TEMPO [s] and [t] but-
tons to select the desired degree of transposition, then release the [UTILITY] button.
The amount of transposition selected is shown on the display as shown to the left.
NOTES
Press the TEMPO [
s
] and [
t
] buttons simultaneously while holding the [UTILITY]
button (while the Transpose function is selected) to restore normal keyboard pitch.
Transpose is always set to Normal when the power is turned on.
The transpose function does not affect the drums sound.
Notes below and above the original 88-key range of the Clavinova sound one octave
higher and lower, respectively.

02: Chorus ON/OFF
A preset chorus effect is provided with each of the CVP-89 voices (this may be ON
or OFF, depending on the voice). This function allows the chorus effect to be turned
ON or OFF for the currently selected voice.
Once the Chorus ON/OFF function has been selected, use the TEMPO [s] and
[t] buttons to turn the chorus effect ON or OFF, then release the [UTILITY] button.
NOTES
The chorus ON/OFF setting is retained in memory for approximately one week even
when the power is turned off.
See page vii for a list of the chorus settings for each voice.
In the Dual mode the setting of the voice shown to the left of the display takes priority,
while in the Split mode the right-hand voice setting takes priority.
