always
make sure to unplug
the AC adaptor
from
the electrical
outlet
and confirm
that all

Battery Precautions

The keyboard comes with a built-in lithium battery that supplies
power to the memory to retain Song Sequencer, Pattern Sequencer
and other data while keyboard power is turned off. If the power of
the lithimn battery is Io_a.,turning off keyboard power can result in
deletion of all data stored in its memory.
The normal life of the original battery is five years from the time it is
loaded at the factory. Due to time spent in transit and storage, the
original battery probably will not provide a full five years of service
life. It is up to you to contact your nearest CAS]O service provider
about having the lithium battery replaced periodicallF_

power to the memory
to retain Song Sequence1,

and other data while keyboard
power is turned off. If the power of
the lithium batterx is 1o'_9 turning off ke} board povx er can result in
deletion of all data stored in its memory.
The normal life of the original battery is five _,ears from the time it is
loaded at the factory. Due to time spent in transit and storage,
the
original battery probably
will not provide a full five years of service
life. It is up to you to contact your nearest CASIO service provider
about having the lithium battery replaced periodically.
Note that you will be charged separately
for lithium battery replacement.
To protect against loss of valuable memory
data ae strongly
that you use either of the following methods to back it up.
• Perform a MID[ dump of the data to a computer

Polyphony
The term polyphony
refers to the maximum
number of notes you can
play at the same time. The keyboard
has 32-note polyphon}5
which
includes
the notes you play as well as the rhythms and auto-accompaniment
patterns
that are played by the keyboard.
This means that
when a rhythm or auto-accompaniment
pattern is being played by
the keyboard,
the number
of notes (polyphony)
available
for keyboard play is reduced. Also note that some of the tones offer only 16note polyphony.

Using Split
With split you can assign two different tones (a main tone and a split
tone) to either end of the keyboard,
which lets you play one tone
with your left hand and anotl_el tone with your right hand. For example, you could select STRINGS as the main (high range) tone and
PIZZICATO
as the split (low range) tone, putting
an entire string
ensemble
at your fingertips.
Split point

Digital Sampling
A nuTllber of the tones that are available
with this kevhoard
have
been recorded
and processed
using a technique
called'digital
sampling. To en_ure a high level of tonal quality; samples are taken in the
low, mid, and high ranges and then combined
to provide you with
sounds that are amazingly
close to the originals. You may notice very
slight differences
in volume or sound c[uality for some tones when
you play them at different positions
on the keyboard.
This is an unavoidable
result of multiple sampling,
and it is not a sign of malfunction.

I.

Select the main tone and split tone.
• Use the Mixer to select the tones, following
the procedure
under "Changing
the Parameters
of a Channel"
on page E30. The main tone is UPPER1, while the split tone is LOWER1.

Using Layer

• If you don't want to use the Mixer, select a keyboard tone as
you normally
would (page E-16). This is the main tone. Next,
proceed
to step 2.

With layer you can assign two different tones (a main tone and a layered tone) to the keyboard,
both of which play whenever
you press a
key. For example,
you could layer the FRENCH HORN tone on the
BRASS tone to produce a rich and brassy sound.

The soumts of the preset tones built into this keyboard are controlled
by settings called "parameters."
To create a user tone, you first recall
a preset tone and then change its parameters.
Note that drum set
tones (192 through
199) cannot be used as the basis of a user tone.
The figure below shows the parameters
that make zip the preset tones
and what each parameter
does. As you can see, these parameters
can
be divided into four groups, each of which is described
in detail in
the following pages.

Whenever
you select a 2DCO tone as the basis for creating
a user

With piano tones and other sounds that decay, the pedal acts as a
damper pedal, with sounds being sustained longer when the pedal
is depressed.
With organ tones and other continuous

played on the keyboard

What is MIDI?

General MIDI

The letters MIDI stand for Musical [nstrument
Digital Interface, whk'h
is the name of a worldwide
standard
for digital signals and connectors that makes it possible
to exchange
musical data between
musical instruments
and computers
(machines)
produced
by different
manufacturers.
MIDI compatible
equipment
can exchange
keyboard
key press, key release, tone change, and other data as messages.
Though you do not need any special knowledge
about MID1 to use
this keyboard as a stand-alone
unit, MIDI operations
require a bit of
specialized
knowledge.
This section provides you with an overview
of MIDI that will help to get you going.

MIDI Connections
MIDI messages
are send out through
the MIDI OUT terminal
of one
machine
to the MIDI IN terminal
of another
machine
over a MIDI
cable. To send a message from this keyhoard
to another machine, for
example, you must use a MIDI cable to connect the MIDI OUT terminal of this keyboard to the MIDI IN terminal of the other machine. To
send MIDI messages
back to this keyboard,
you need to use a MIDI
cable to connect the other machine's
MIDI OUT terminal to the MIDI
IN terminal
of this keyboard.
To use a computer
or other MID1 device to record and playback the
MIDI data produced
by this keyboard,
you must connect the MIDI
IN and MIDI OUT terminals of both machines
in order send and receive data.

MIDI OUT

Computer

As we have already seen, MIDI makes is possihle to exchange musi• %al data between
devices produced
by different mamlfacturers.
This
musical data does not consist of the notes themselves,
but rather information
on whether a keyboard key is pressed or released, and the
tone rlumber.
If tone mmg_er I on a keyboard
produced
by Company
A is PIANO
while tone number 1 on a Company
B's keyboard is BASS, fol exampie, sending data from Company
A's keyboard to Company
B's keyboard produces
a result entirely different from the original. If a computer, sequencer
or other device with auto accompaniment
capabilities is used to produce music data for the Company A keyboard which
has 16 parts (16 channels)
and then that data is sent to the Company
B keyboard
which can receive only 10 parts (10 channels),
the parts
that cannot be played
will not be heard.
The standard for the tone numbering
sequence,
the number of parts,
and other general factors that determine
the sound source configuration, which was arrived
at by mutual consultations
by manufacturers, is called General MIDL
The General MID1 standard
defines the tone numbering
sequence,
the drum sound numbering
sequence, the number of MID1 channels
that can be used, and other general factors that determine
the sound
source configuration.
Because
of this, musical data produced
on a
General MIDI sound source can be played back using similar tones
and identical nuances as the original_ even when played on another

source.

This keyboald
conforms
with Genelal MIDI standards,
so it can be
connected
to a computer
or other device and used to play back General MIDI data that has been purchased,
downloaded
from the Internet, or obtained
from any other source.

etc.

MIDI Channels
MIDI allows you to send the data for multiple parts at the same time,
with each part being sent over a separate MIDI cham_el. There are 16
MIDI channels,
mlmbered
1 through
16, and MIDI channel data is
always included
whenever
you exchange data (key press, pedal operation, etc.).
This keyboard
is equipped
with multi-timbre
capabilities,
which
means it can receive messages
over all 16 MIDI channels
and play up
to 16 parts at the same time.
Keyboard
and pedal operations
performed
on this keyboard are sent
out by selecting a MIDI channel (1 to 16) and then sending the appropriate message.

A NOTE ON/OFF
message includes
a note number (to indicate the
note whose key is being pressed or released) and velocity (keyboard
pressure as a value from 1 to 127). NOTE ON velocity is always used
to determine
the relative strength of the note. This keyboard does not
receive NOTE OFF velocity data.
Pressing a keyboard

This mode is the opposite of the External/Solo
Mode in that pressing
a CHANNEL
button turns off only the channel assigned
to that button and turns all other channels
on. This capability
comes in handy
when you want to cut out a part of the MIDI receive data and play
that part on the keyboard.
This is different from the play along capability of the [nternal Mode, where you play along as all the parts of
the MIni receive data play.
For example, let's say the keyboard
is receiving a tune that uses MIni
Channels 1 through 10, and you want to play the horn section part on
Channel
5 on the keyboard.
Simply enter the External/Play
Mode
and press the CH5 CHANNEL
button. This turns off CH5 and copies
its Mixer settings (tone, contro] changes, and other data) to interna]
channel CH], which is the channel that controls the keyboard
tone

to play the horn section
part on the keyboard,
