The Clavinova has several volume controls that give
you extra versatility in creating the required sound.
The Volume Controls
● Auto Accompaniment ............................................................................................................................
Separate volume controls are provided for the RHYTHM, CHORD 1,
CHORD 2, and BASS sound. These volume controls let you set up the best
balance between the various accompaniment parts when the AUTO BASS
CHORD (ABC), Disk Orchestra Collection playback, and Performance Memory
features are used, and the RHYTHM volume control can be used to balance the
keyboard and rhythm sound when only rhythm accompaniment is used.
The volume of the keyboard can be independently adjusted by using the BASS
control while holding the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button — this is particularly
handy for adjusting the balance when recording the Clavinova sound.
● Other Volume Control Modes
The Auto Accompaniment volume controls can be assigned to other functions
via the “Accompaniment Volume Mode” utility function (page 42). They can be
used to control modulation, pitch bend, and expression; or individual reverb
depth for the rhythm, chord 1, chord 2, and bass parts.
NOTES
• If any or all of the Auto Accompaniment volume controls are set to their minimum
positions, no sound will be produced by the corresponding parts. The maximum
control positions produce the normal volume levels.

● Master Volume ........................................................................................................................................
The MASTER VOLUME control adjusts the overall volume of sound
produced by the Clavinova. It also adjusts headphone volume when one or two
pairs of headphones are plugged into the HEADPHONES jacks.
Initially set the MASTER VOLUME control about half way between the
“MIN” and “MAX” settings. Then, when you start playing, adjust the control for
the most comfortable listening level.

● Expression Control (CVP-87A only) .....................................................................................................
An optional Yamaha EP-1 Expression Pedal can be plugged into the CVP-87A
EXP. PEDAL jack for foot volume (expression) control of the keyboard sound
only (i.e. expression doesn’t affect the auto-accompaniment sound or disk
playback). Press the pedal forward to increase volume, and backward to decrease
volume.
EXP.PEDAL
The CVP-87A and CVP-85A feature a powerful stereo amplifier delivering 40 watts per chan-
nel while the CVP-83S has a high-performance 20-watt stereo amplifier. All three models
include a high-performance speaker system that puts out exceptionally rich sound with natu-
ral response from powerful lows to shimmering highs. The CVP-87A and CVP-85A speaker
systems employ two 13-centimeter speaker units for low-to-midrange reproduction, and two
5-centimeter speaker units for outstanding high-frequency sound. The CVP-83S has two 16-
centimeter and two 5-centimeter units.
