ones.

• Never dispose of batteries by incinerat-

ing them. Never short or disassemble bat-

teries, and do not expose them to exces-

sive heat.

• Replace dead batteries as soon as possible.

• Never attempt to recharge batteries.

Transport

• When transporting the instrument, always

make sure to unplug the AC adaptor from

the electrical outlet and confirm that all

other external connections have been dis-

connected. Only then should the instrument

be transported. If the above is not done, the

cord may be damaged leading to possible

fire or electrical shock.

E-5

Care

• Whenever caring, make sure to first un-

plug the AC adaptor from the electrical out-

let. Also remove the instrument’s batteries

if battery power is being used.

Location

• Never locate the instrument in areas sub-

ject to high humidity or heavy accumula-

tion of dust. Doing so may cause fire or

electrical shock.

• Never locate the instrument in areas sub-

ject to grease splatters or steam, such as in a

kitchen or near a humidifier. Doing so may

cause fire or electrical shock.

Do not place keyboard on lacquered furniture.

• The instrument’s silicone rubber feet may

eventually blacken or scar lacquered sur-

faces. Use felt cloth pads to insulate the feet

or preferably use a CASIO musical instru-

ment stand designed for your keyboard.

Do not place heavy objects on the instrument.

• Do not place heavy objects on the instru-

ment. This may cause the instrument to tip

over or break resulting in injury.

Volume

• Very high volume levels can damage hear-

ing. Avoid using the instrument at very high

volume settings for long periods. Consult with

a physician immediately if you experience

impaired hearing or ringing in the ears.

Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Precautions

• Avoid subjecting the keyboard's LCD to

strong impact, which can crack or break the

LCD's glass creating the danger of personal

injury.

• Should the LCD glass ever crack or break,

do not allow the liquid inside the LCD to

come into contact with your skin, which

can cause inflammation and reddening.

•Should the LCD liquid get into your

mouth, immediately wash out your mouth

with water and then consult a physician.

•Should the LCD liquid get in your eyes or

on your skin, immediately flush with wa-

ter for at least 15 minutes and then consult

a physician.

Do not get onto the instrument or stand.*

• Do not crawl on top of the instrument or its

optional stand. Particular caution is re-

quired in homes having small children. This

may cause the instrument or stand to tip

over and break resulting in injury.

Optional Stand*

• Carefully assemble the stand following the

assembly instructions that come with it. Se-

curely tighten all bolts, nuts, and fasteners,

and make sure that you mount the instru-

ment correctly onto the stand. Incorrectly

or insufficiently tightening screws, or in-

correctly mounting the instrument onto the

stand can cause the stand to tip over or the

instrument to fall off the stand, possibly

leading to injury.

* The stand is available as an option.

Avoid heat, humidity or direct sunlight.

Do not overexpose the instrument to direct sunlight, or place it near

an air conditioner, or in any extremely hot place.

Do not use near a TV or radio.

This instrument can cause video or audio interference with TV and

radio reception. If this happens, move the instrument away from the

TV or radio.

Do not use lacquer, thinner or similar chemi-

cals for cleaning.

Clean the keyboard with a soft cloth dampened in a weak solution of

water and a neutral detergent. Soak the cloth in the solution and

squeeze until it is almost dry.

Avoid use in areas subjected to temperature

extremes.

Extremely high or low temperature can cause figures on the LCD

screen to become dim and difficult to read. This condition should

correct itself when the keyboard is brought back to normal tempera-

ture.

❚

NOTE

❚

You may notice lines in the finish of the case of this keyboard. These lines

are a result of the molding process used to shape the plastic of the case.

They are not cracks or breaks in the plastic, and are no cause for concern.

Phones/Output Terminal

Before connecting headphones or other external equipment, be sure

to first turn down the volume settings of the keyboard and the con-

nected equipment. You can then adjust volume to the desired level

after connections are complete.

[Rear Panel]

Connecting Headphones (Figure 11

Connecting headphones cuts off output from the keyboard’s built-in

speakers, so you can play even late at night without disturbing any-

one.

Audio Equipment (Figure 22

Connect the keyboard to a audio equipment using a commercially

available connecting cord with a standard plug on one end and two

PIN plugs on the other end. Note that the standard plug you connect

to the keyboard must be a stereo plug, otherwise you will be able to

output only one of stereo channels. In this configuration, you nor-

mally set the input selector of the audio equipment to the terminal

(usually marked AUX IN or something similar) where the cord from

the keyboard is connected. See the user documentation that comes

with your audio equipment for full details.

Musical Instrument Amplifier (Figure 33

Use a commercially available connecting cord to connect the keyboard

to a musical instrument amplifier.

❚

NOTE

❚

Be sure to use a connecting cord that has a stereo standard plug on the

end you connect to the keyboard, and a connector that provides dual chan-

nel (left and right) input to the amplifier to which you are connecting. The

wrong type of connector at either end can cause one of the stereo chan-

nels to be lost.

When connected to a musical instrument amplifier, set the volume of

the keyboard to a relatively low level and make output volume ad-

justments using the amplifier’s controls.

Connection Example

Connecting to a Computer or Other

Equipment

You can also connect the keyboard to a computer or sequencer. See

“MIDI” on page E-36 for details.

Assignable jack Terminal

You can connect an optional sustain pedal (SP-2 or SP-10) to the AS-

SIGNABLE JACK terminal to enable the capabilities described be-

low.

For details on how to select the pedal function you want, see “AS-

SIGNABLE JACK” on page E-39.

Sustain Pedal

•With piano tones, depressing the pedal causes notes to linger, much

like a piano’s damper pedal.

•With organ tones, depressing the pedal causes notes to continue to

sound until the pedal is released.

Sostenuto Pedal

•As with the sustain pedal function described above, depressing

the sostenuto pedal causes notes to be sustained.

•This difference between a sostenuto pedal and sustain pedal is the

timing. With a sostenuto pedal, you press the keys and then de-

press the pedal before you release the keys. Only the notes that are

sounding when the pedal is depressed are sustained.

Soft Pedal

Depressing the pedal softens the sound of the notes being played.

Rhythm Start/Stop Pedal

In this case, the pedal performs the same functions as the START/

STOP button.

Accessories and Options

Use only the accessories and options specified for this keyboard. Use

of non-authorized items creates the danger of fire, electrical shock,

and personal injury.

Important Battery Information

■

The following shows the approximate battery life.

Manganese batteries .......................................... 6 hours

The above value is standard battery life at normal temperature, with

the keyboard volume at medium setting. Temperature extremes or

playing at very loud volume settings can shorten battery life.

■

Any of the following symptoms indicate low battery power. Replace

batteries as soon as possible whenever any of the following occurs.

•Dim power supply indicator

•Instrument does not turn on

•Dim, difficult to read display

•Abnormally low speaker/headphone volume

•Distortion of sound output

•Occasional interruption of sound when playing at high volumes

•Sudden power failure when playing at high volumes

•Dimming of the display when playing at high volume

•Continued sound output even after you release a key

•A totally different tone may sound

•Abnormal rhythm pattern and demo tune play

•Loss of power, sound distortion, or low volume when playing

from a connected computer or MIDI device

Power Supply

IMPORTANT!

Improper handling of batteries can cause them to burst and leak,

which creates the danger of personal injury or damage due to con-

tact with battery acid. Be sure to note the following important precau-

tions.

•Always make sure that the positive (+) and negative (–) poles are

facing correctly as indicated inside the battery compartment.

•To avoid damage caused by leaking batteries, be sure to remove

batteries from the keyboard whenever you leave it unattended for

long periods (such as when leaving on a trip).

•Never mix batteries of different types.

•Never mix old batteries with new ones.

•Never discard batteries by incinerating them, do not allow their

poles to be shorted (connected to each other), never take batteries

apart, and do not expose batteries to direct heat.

•Replace batteries as soon as possible after any sign they are get-

ting weak.

•Never attempt to recharge batteries.

Using the AC Adaptor

Make sure that you use only the AC adaptor specified for this key-

board.

Specified AC Adaptor: AD-5

Also note the following important warnings and precautions when

using the AC adaptor.

WARNING!

•Take care to avoid any damage to or breakage of the power cord. Never

place any heavy objects on the power cord or expose it to direct heat.

Doing so creates the danger of power cord damage, fire, and electrical

shock.

•Use only the specified AC adaptor. Use of another type of adaptor cre-

ates the danger of fire and electrical shock.

CAUTION!

•For safety sake, be sure to unplug the AC adaptor from the wall outlet

whenever leaving the keyboard unattended for a long time (such as

when leaving on a trip).

•Always turn off the keyboard and unplug the AC adaptor from the wall

outlet when you are not using the keyboard.

IMPORTANT!

•Make sure that the keyboard is turned off before connecting or

disconnecting the AC adaptor.

•Using the AC adaptor for a long time can cause it to become warm

to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

Auto Power Off

When you are using battery power, keyboard power turns off auto-

matically whenever you leave it on without performing any opera-

tion for about 6 minutes. When this happens, press the POWER but-

ton to turn power back on.

❚

NOTE

❚

Auto Power Off is disabled (it does not function) when you are using the

AC adaptor to power the keyboard.

To disable Auto Power Off

Hold down the TONE button while turning on the keyboard to dis-

able Auto Power Off.

•When this function is turned off, the keyboard does not turn off

automatically no matter how long it is left with no operation being

performed.

•Auto Power Off is enabled again when you manually turn off power

and then turn it back on again.

Settings and Memory Contents

Settings

Tone, rhythm, and other “main keyboard settings” in effect when

power is turned off manually with the POWER button or automati-

cally by Auto Power Off remain in effect when you next turn power

back on.

Main Keyboard Settings

Main keyboard settings are: tone number, layer, split, split

point, touch response, rhythm number, tempo, accompani-

ment volume, General MIDI mode on/off, accomp MIDI

OUT on/off, Assignable jack setting, keyboard channel, and

tune number.

Memory Contents

In addition to the above settings, data stored using the memory func-

tion is also retained.

Electrical Power

The settings and memory data described above are retained as long

as the keyboard is being supplied with electrical power. Unplugging

the AC adaptor when batteries are not loaded or when loaded batter-

ies are dead cuts off the keyboard’s electrical power supply. This caus-

es all settings to be initialized to their factory defaults and clears all

data stored in memory.

Power Requirements

Note the following precautions whenever you want to ensure that

current keyboard settings and memory contents are not lost.

•Make sure the keyboard is being supplied power through the AC

adaptor before replacing its batteries.

•Before unplugging the AC adaptor, make sure that fresh batteries

are loaded in the keyboard.

•Make sure that keyboard power is turned off before replacing bat-

teries or unplugging the AC adaptor.

NOTES

❚

•Always input all three digits for the tone number, including leading zeros

(if any). If you input one or two digits and stop, the display will automat-

ically clear your input after a few seconds.

•You can also increment the displayed tone number by pressing [+] and

decrement it by pressing [–].

•The names of tone numbers 080 through 103 and 112 through 127 are

not marked on the keyboard console. See the “Tone List” (page A-6) for

details.

•When one of the drum sets is selected (tone numbers 128 through 136),

each keyboard key is assigned a different percussion sound. See page

A-3 for details.

Polyphony

The term polyphony refers to the maximum number of notes you can

play at the same time. The keyboard has 24-note polyphony, which

includes the notes you play as well as the rhythms and auto-accom-

paniment 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 key-

board play is reduced. Also note that some of the tones offer only 12-

note polyphony.

•When rhythm or auto accompaniment is playing, the number of

sounds simultaneously played is reduced.

Digital Sampling

A number of the tones that are available with this keyboard have

been recorded and processed using a technique called digital sam-

pling. To ensure 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 quality for some tones when

you play them at different positions on the keyboard. This is an un-

avoidable result of multiple sampling, and it is not a sign of malfunc-

tion.

NOTES

❚

•Except for the chords specified in note*1 above, inverted fingerings (i.e.

playing E-G-C or G-C-E instead of C-E-G) will produce the same chords

as the standard fingering.

•Except for the exception specified in note*2 above, all of the keys that

make up a chord must be pressed. Failure to press even a single key

will not play the desired FINGERED chord.

FULL RANGE CHORD

This accompaniment method provides a total of 38 different chord

types: the 15 chord types available with FINGERED plus 23 addi-

tional types. The keyboard interprets any input of three or more keys

that matches a FULL RANGE CHORD pattern to be a chord. Any

other input (that is not a FULL RANGE CHORD pattern) is interpret-

ed as melody play. Because of this, there is no need for a separate

accompaniment keyboard, so the entire keyboard, from end to end,

can be used for both melody and chords.

3-Step Lesson

The 3-step lesson feature takes you through the three distinct steps

described below to help you learn to play tunes on the keyboard.

Step 1 – Master the timing.

In this step, pressing any key on the keyboard plays the correct note,

so you can concentrate on getting the timing right without worrying

about playing the right note. The sub-melody (obbligato) waits until

you press a key before proceeding to the next phrase.

Step 2 – Master the melody.

In this step, you learn the keys to press to play the melody. The keys

you need to press light on the on-screen keyboard guide, so simply

follow along as you learn to play. The sub-melody (obbligato) waits

until your play the correct note, so you can learn at your own pace.

Step 3 – Play a normal speed.

This is where you enjoy actually playing the tunes you learn using

Step 1 and Step 2. The on-screen keyboard guide still shows you which

keyboard keys to press, but accompaniment proceeds at normal speed

regardless of whether or not you play the correct notes.

Tune Types and Their Parts

The built-in tunes of this keyboard are divided between two basic

groups: Auto Accompaniment tunes (Song Bank) and two-hand ac-

companiment tunes (Etude and Concert Piece). The parts available

for 3-step lesson practice depend on the type of tune you are using.

Auto Accompaniment Tunes (Song Bank)

As their name suggests, these tunes are made up of an Auto Accom-

paniment part and a melody part. When using these tunes for a 3-

step lesson, you can practice playing along with the melody (right

hand) part only.

Two-hand Tunes (Etude, Concert Piece)

These types of tunes are played with both hands, as in a piano solo.

When using these tunes for a 3-step lesson, you can practice playing

along with both the left hand and right hand parts.

Display Contents During 3-step Lesson Play

Whenever you select an Auto Accompaniment tune for 3-step lesson

play, the on-screen keyboard guide and staff notation shows the note

you should play and its length. The on-screen keyboard guide also

shows the notes you play on the keyboard. The following describes

the information that appears on the display.

Note Pitch

The key you should press lights on the on-screen keyboard guide,

while the actual pitch of the note appears in the display’s staff nota-

tion area. The fingers you should use to play the notes are also shown

on the display.

•Note length is not indicated when you are using two-hand tunes with 3-

step lesson Steps 1 and 2. As soon as you press a key that is lit on the

on-screen keyboard guide, it goes out and the next key you need to

press starts to flash.

•Note length is indicated by the on-screen keyboard guide when you use

two-hand tunes with Step 3. In this case, the next key to be pressed

does not flash when you press a lit key and the next finger number does

not appear on the display. Only the current finger number is shown.

3-step Lesson Tempo Setting

Use the procedure under “Adjusting the Tempo” on page E-16 to ad-

just the tempo for 3-step lesson play.

702A-E-026A

Note Length

The key stays lit on the on-screen keyboard guide for as long as the

note should be sustained. The staff notation and fingerings also re-

main on the display for the length of the note.

Next Note

An on-screen keyboard guide key flashes to indicate the next note to

be played, while a number appears on the display near the finger

you should use to play the next note.

Series of Same Pitch Notes

The on-screen keyboard guide key turns off momentarily between

the notes, and lights again for each successive note. The staff nota-

tion and fingerings also turn off and back on again.

Memory Function

You can store up to two separate songs in memory for later playback.

The memory function records your keyboard play in real time, as

you play it.

Tracks

The memory of this keyboard records and plays back notes much

like a standard tape recorder. There are two tracks, each of which can

be recorded separately. Besides notes, each track can be assigned its

own tone number. During playback you can adjust the tempo to

change the speed of playback.

❚

NOTES

❚

•Track 1 is the basic track, which can be used to record Auto Accompa-

niment along with the melody. Track 2 can be used for melody only, and

is for adding to what is recorded in Track 1.

•Note that each track is independent of the other. This means that if you

make a mistake while recording, you need to re-record only the track

where the mistake was made.

Memory Data Storage

•Anything previously stored in memory is replaced whenever you

make a new recording.

•Memory contents are retained as long as the keyboard is supplied

with electrical power. Unplugging the AC adaptor when batteries

are not loaded or when loaded batteries are dead cuts off the key-

board’s electrical power supply, causing all data stored in memory

to be deleted. Be sure to plug the keyboard into an electrical outlet

with the AC adaptor before replacing batteries.

•Turning off the keyboard while a record operation is in progress

causes the contents of the track you are currently recording to be

lost.

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 another tone with your right hand. For ex-

ample, you could select STRINGS as the main (high range) tone and

PIZZICATO as the split (low range) tone, putting an entire string en-

semble at your fingertips.

Split also lets you specify the split point, which is the location on the

keyboard where the changeover between the two tones occurs.

To split the keyboard

1. First select the main tone.

Example: To select “048 STRINGS 1” as the main tone, press the

TONE button and then use the number buttons or [+]

and [–] buttons to input 0, 4 and then 8.

2. Press the SPLIT button.

3. Select the split tone.

Example: To select “045 PIZZICATO STR” as the split tone, use

the number buttons or [+] and [–] buttons to input 0,

4 and then 5.

This section describes how to use layer (to play two tones with a sin-

gle key) and split (to assign different tones to either end of the key-

board), and how to make touch response, transpose, and tuning set-

tings.

Using Layer

Layer lets you 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.

To layer tones

1. First select the main tone.

Example: To select “061 BRASS” as the main tone, press the

TONE button and then use the number buttons or [+]

and [–] buttons to input 0, 6 and then 1.

2. Press the LAYER button.

3. Select the layered tone.

Example: To select “060 FRENCH HORN” as the layered tone,

use the number buttons or [+] and [–] buttons to in-

put 0, 6 and then 0.

4. Now try playing something on the keyboard.

•Both tones are played at the same time.

5. Press the LAYER button again to unlayer the tones and

return the keyboard to normal.

You can use layer and split together to created a layered split key-

board. It makes no difference whether you layer tones first and then

split the keyboard, or split the keyboard and then layer tones. When

you use layer and split in combination, the high range of the key-

board is assigned two tones (main tone + layered tone), and the low

range two tones (split tone + layered split tone).

To split the keyboard and then layer tones

1. Press the TONE button and then input the tone num-

ber of the main tone.

What is MIDI?

The letters MIDI stand for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, which

is the name of a worldwide standard for digital signals and connec-

tors that makes it possible to exchange musical data between musical

instruments and computers (machines) produced by different manu-

facturers. 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 MIDI 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 keyboard to another machine, for

example, you must use a MIDI cable to connect the MIDI OUT termi-

nal 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 MIDI 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 re-

ceive data.

•To use the MIDI THRU function of a connected computer, se-

quencer, or other MIDI device, be sure to turn this keyboard’s LO-

CAL CONTROL off (page E-38).

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 channel. There are 16

MIDI channels, numbered 1 through 16, and MIDI channel data is

always included whenever you exchange data (key press, pedal op-

eration, etc.)

Both the sending machine and the receiving machine must be set to

the same channel for the receiving unit to correctly receive and play

data. If the receiving machine is set to Channel 2, for example, it re-

ceives only MIDI Channel 2 data, and all other channels are ignored.

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 appro-

priate message.

KEYBOARD CHANNEL

The keyboard channel is the channel used to send MIDI messages

from this keyboard to an external device. You can specify one chan-

nel from 1 to 16 as the keyboard channel.

1. Press the TRANSPOSE/TUNE/MIDI button until the

KEYBOARD CHANNEL screen appears.

2. Use the [+], [–], and the number buttons to change

the channel number.

Example: To specify channel 4

NAVIGATE CHANNEL (Default: 4)

When MIDI messages are received from an external device for play

on this keyboard, the navigate channel is the channel whose note data

appears on the display. You can select one channel from 1 to 8 as the

navigate channel. Since this setting lets you use the data on any chan-

nel of commercially available MIDI software to light on the on-screen

keyboard guide, you can analyze how different parts of an arrange-

ment are played.

1. Press the TRANSPOSE/TUNE/MIDI button until the

NAVIGATE CHANNEL screen appears.

2. Use the [+], [–], and the number buttons [1] through

[8] to change the channel number.

Example: To specify channel 2

❚

NOTE

❚

The navigate channel automatically changes to 1 whenever you turn MIDI

IN CHORD JUDGE.

To turn off specific sounds before playing back MIDI data

that is being received

<<Navigate channel on/off>>

While playing MIDI data, press the RIGHT/TRACK 2 button.

•This cuts the sound of the navigate channel, but on-screen key-

board guide keys continue to light in accordance with the chan-

nel’s data as it is received. Press RIGHT/TRACK 2 button again to

turn the channel back on.

<<Next lower channel from navigate channel on/off>>

While playing MIDI data, press the LEFT/TRACK 1 button.

•This cuts the sound of the channel whose number is one less than

the navigate channel, but on-screen keyboard guide keys continue

to light in accordance with the channel’s data as it is received. Press

LEFT/TRACK 1 button again to turn the channel back on.

Example: If the navigate channel is channel 4, the above operation

turns off channel 3. If the navigate channel is channel 1 or 2,

the above operation turns off channel 8.

General MIDI

As we have already seen, MIDI makes it possible to exchange musi-

cal data between devices produced by different manufacturers. This

musical data does not consist of the notes themselves, but rather in-

formation on whether a keyboard key is pressed or released, and the

tone number.

If tone number 1 on a keyboard produced by Company A is PIANO

while tone number 1 on a Company B's keyboard is BASS, for exam-

ple, sending data from Company A's keyboard to Company B's key-

board produces a result entirely different from the original. If a com-

puter, sequencer or other device with auto accompaniment capabili-

ties 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 pads,

and other general factors that determine the sound source configura-

tion, which was arrived at by mutual consultations by manufactur-

ers, is called General MIDI.

The General MIDI standard defines the tone numbering sequence,

the drum sound numbering sequence, the number of MIDI 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

manufacturers sound source.

This keyboard conforms with General MIDI standards, so it can be

connected to a computer or other device and used to play back Gen-

eral MIDI data that has been purchased, downloaded from the Inter-

net, or obtained from any other source.

Changing MIDI Settings

You can use this keyboard in combination with an external sequenc-

er, synthesizer, or other MIDI device to play along with commercial-

ly available General MIDI software. This section tells you how to make

the MIDI settings required when connecting to an external device.

TRANSPOSE/TUNE/MIDI Button

Each press of the TRANSPOSE/TUNE/MIDI button cycles through

a total of 12 setting screens: the transpose screen, the tuning screen,

and 10 MIDI setting screens. If you accidentally pass the screen you

want to use, keep pressing the TRANSPOSE/TUNE/MIDI button

until the screen appears again. Also note that leaving a setting screen

is automatically cleared from the display if you do not perform any

operation for about five seconds.

LOCAL CONTROL (Default: On)

This setting determines whether or not the keyboard and sound source

of this keyboard are connected internally. When recording to a com-

puter or other external device connected to this keyboard’s MIDI IN/

OUT terminal, it helps if you turn LOCAL CONTROL off.

on: Anything played on the keyboard is sounded by the internal

sound source and simultaneously output as a MIDI message from

the MIDI OUT terminal.

oFF:Anything played on the keyboard is output as a MIDI message

from the MIDI OUT terminal, without being sounded by the in-

ternal sound source. Turn LOCAL CONTROL off whenever you

are using the MIDI THRU function of a computer or other exter-

nal device. Also note that the no sound is produced by the key-

board if LOCAL CONTROL is turned off and no external device

is connected.

1. Press the TRANSPOSE/TUNE/MIDI button until the

LOCAL CONTROL screen appears.

Example: When LOCAL CONTROL is on

*1 Sustain

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 sounds, notes

played on the keyboard continue to sound until the pedal is released.

In either case, the sustain effect is also applied to any notes that are

played while the pedal is depressed.

*2 Sostenuto

This effect performs the same way as sustain, except that it is applied

only to notes that are sounding already when the pedal is depressed.

It does not affect notes that are played after the pedal is depressed.

SOUND RANGE SHIFT (Default: On)

on: Shifts low range tones one octave lower and 072 PICCOLO one

octave higher.

oFF:Plays low range tones and 072 PICCOLO at their normal levels.

Messages

There is a wide variety of messages defined under the MIDI stan-

dard, and this section details the particular messages that can be sent

and received by this keyboard. An asterisk is used to mark messages

that affect the entire keyboard. Messages without an asterisk are those

that affect only a particular channel.

NOTE ON/OFF

This message sends data when a key is pressed (NOTE ON) or re-

leased (NOTE OFF).

A NOTE ON/OFF message include a note number (to indicate note

whose key is being pressed or released) and velocity (keyboard pres-

sure as a value from 1 to 127). NOTE ON velocity is always used to

determine the relative volume of the note. This keyboard does not

receive NOTE OFF velocity data.

Whenever you press or release a key on this keyboard, the correspond-

ing NOTE ON or NOTE OFF message is sent from the MIDI OUT

terminal.

NOTE

❚

The pitch of a note depends on the tone that is being used, as shown in

the Note Table on page A-1. Whenever this keyboard receives a note num-

ber that is outside its range for that tone, the same tone in the nearest

available octave is substituted.

PROGRAM CHANGE

This is the tone selection message. PROGRAM CHANGE can con-

tain tone data within the range of 0 to 127.

A PROGRAM CHANGE message is sent out through this keyboard’s

MIDI OUT terminal whenever you manually change its tone num-

ber. Receipt of a PROGRAM CHANGE message from an external ma-

chine changes the tone setting of this keyboard.

❚

NOTE

❚

This keyboard supports 128 tones in the range 0 to 127. However, Chan-

nel 10 is a percussion-only channel, and Channels 0, 8, 16, 24, 25, 32, 40,

48, and 62 correspond to the nine drum set sounds of this keyboard.

PITCH BEND

This message carries pitch bend information for smoothly sliding the

pitch upwards or downwards during keyboard play. This keyboard

does not send pitch bend data, but it can receive such data.

CONTROL CHANGE

This message adds effects such as vibrato and volume changes ap-

plied during keyboard play. CONTROL CHANGE data includes a

control number (to identify the effect type) and a control value (to

specify the on/off status and depth of the effect).

The following is a list of data that can be send or received using CON-

TROL CHANGE.

★ indicates receive-only messages

*RPN stands for Registered Parameter Number, which is a special

control change number used when combining multiple control

changes. The parameter being controlled is selected using the con-

trol values of control numbers 100 and 101, and then settings are

made using the control values of DATA ENTRY (control numbers

6 and 38).

This keyboard uses RPN to control this keyboard’s pitch bend sense

(pitch change width in accordance with bend data) from another

external MIDI device, transpose (this keyboard’s overall tuning

adjusted in halftone units), and tune (this keyboard’s overall fine

tuning).

❚

NOTE

❚

Sustain (control number 64), sostenuto (control number 66), and soft (con-

trol number 67) effects applied using the foot pedal are also applied.

ALL SOUND OFF

This message forces all sound being produced over the current chan-

nel to turn off, regardless of how the sound is being produced.

ALL NOTES OFF

This message turns off all note data sent from an external device and

currently being sounded on the channel.

•Any notes being sustained using a sustain pedal or sostenuto ped-

al continue to sound until the next pedal off.

RESET ALL CONTROLLERS

This messages initializes pitch bend and all other control changes.

SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE*

This message is used to control system exclusives, which are tone

fine adjustments that are unique to a particular machine. Originally,

system exclusives were unique to a particular model, but now there

are also universal system exclusives that are applicable to machines

that are different models and even produced by different manufac-

turers.

The following are the system exclusive messages supported by this

keyboard.

■

GM SYSTEM ON ([F0][7E][7F][09][01][F7])

GM SYSTEM ON is used by an external machine to turn on this key-

board’s GM system. GM stands for General MIDI.

•GM SYSTEM ON takes more time to process than other messages,

so when GM SYSTEM ON is stored in the sequencer it can take

more than 100msec until the next message.

■

GM SYSTEM OFF ([F0][7E][7F][09][02][F7])

GM SYSTEM OFF is used by an external machine to turn off this key-

board’s GM system.
