Press the [POWER] switch once to turn the power
ON, a second time to turn the power OFF. When the
power is initially turned ON, the [PIANO] voice selec-
tor LED will light.
2 [MASTER VOLUME] Control
The [MASTER VOLUME] control adjusts the vol-
ume (level) of sound produced by the YDP-88’s inter-
nal sound system. The [MASTER VOLUME] control
also adjusts headphone volume when a pair of head-
phones is plugged into the PHONES jack.
3 [TRANSPOSE] Button
The [TRANSPOSE] button allows access to the YDP-
88’s TRANSPOSE function (to shift the pitch of the
entire keyboard up or down). For details refer to
“TRANSPOSITION” on page 6.
4 Voice Selectors
The YDP-88 has five voice selectors. 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.
The YDP-88 also has a DUAL mode in which two
voices can be played simultaneously across the full
range of the keyboard — see page 5 for details.
NOTE
• The PIANO voice is automatically selected
whenever the [POWER] switch is initially turned
ON.

Turns the metronome sound on and off. The
[TEMPO] control, below, is used to set the tempo of
the metronome sound. More precise tempo settings can
be achieved by using the [METRONOME] button and
the YDP-88 keyboard as described on page 8.
