shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the
following:

Power supply/AC adaptor

Fire warning

• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators. Also,
do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, or place heavy objects on
it.

• Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit. A burning item may fall
over and cause a fire.

• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage
is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
• Use the specified adaptor (page 25) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in
damage to the instrument or overheating.
• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have
accumulated on it.

CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage
to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

Power supply/AC adaptor

Connections

• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector.
Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the
outlet.

• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the
power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components,
set all volume levels to minimum.

• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold
the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.

• Be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum levels and
gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the
desired listening level.

• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for
extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

Handling caution
Location

• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.

• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally
fall over.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent damage
to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily
accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power
switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is
turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When
you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power
cord from the wall AC outlet.

• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel or
keyboard. This could cause physical injury to you or others, damage to the
instrument or other property, or operational failure.
• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not
use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long period of time at a
high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing
loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a
physician.

• Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching it, use the
provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage to the internal
components or result in the instrument falling over.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.
Even when the [

] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (power lamp is off), electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level.

When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

Setting Up

Using a Pedal (Sustain)
Introduction

You can produce a natural sustain as you play by
pressing the included footswitch plugged into the
[SUSTAIN] jack.
Also an optional FC3A foot pedal or FC4A or FC5
footswitch can be connected to this jack. The FC3A
lets you use the Half Pedal function.
Damper Resonance
When you select a Piano Voice, pressing the footswitch activates the Damper Resonance/ Sustain
sampling effect (when on) to accurately recreate
the resonance of an acoustic piano’s strings.
To turn the effect on and enable footswitch control,
simultaneously hold down [PIANO] and press the
C#3 key; to turn it off, simultaneously hold down
[PIANO] and press C3.
Default setting: on
NOTE

• Damper Resonance cannot be used in Duo (page 15).

Half-pedal function (for FC3A and Pedal Unit)
This function allows you to vary the sustain length
depending on how far the pedal is pressed. The farther down you press the pedal, the more the sound
sustains. For example, if you press the damper pedal
and all notes you are playing sound a bit murky and
loud with too much sustain, you can release the pedal
half way or higher to decrease the sustain (murkiness).

LP-1B/LP-1WH
(Sold separately)

L-125B/L-125WH
(Sold separately)

NOTE

• Make sure that power is off when connecting or disconnecting the pedal unit.

Damper (Right) Pedal
Pressing this pedal will sustain notes longer. Releasing this pedal immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes. The damper pedal is compatible with the
Damper Resonance (see column at left). A “halfpedal” function of this pedal creates partial sustain
effects, depending on how far down you press the
pedal.
Sostenuto (Center) Pedal
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press
the sostenuto pedal while the note(s) are held, those
notes will sustain as long as you hold the pedal (as if
the damper pedal had been pressed) but all subsequently played notes will not be sustained. This makes
it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other
notes are played “staccato.”

If you press and hold the sostenuto pedal here,
only the notes held at this timing will be sustained.

NOTE

• Do not press the footswich when turning the power on. Doing this changes the
recognized polarity of the footswitch, resulting in reversed footswitch operation.

Soft (Left) Pedal

• Make sure that power is OFF when connecting or disconnecting the footswitch
or pedal.

The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly
changes the timbre of notes played while the pedal is
pressed. The soft pedal will not affect notes that are
already playing when it is pressed.

Using the Optional Pedal Unit
The [PEDAL UNIT] jack is for connecting an
optional LP-1B/LP-1WH pedal unit. When connecting the pedal unit, make sure to also assemble the unit
on an optional keyboard stand (L-125B/L-125WH).

12

P-125 Owner’s Manual

NOTE

• When the “Jazz Organ” is selected, pressing and releasing this pedal switches
between “fast” and “slow” of the Rotary Speaker speed. When the Vibraphone is
selected, this pedal switches Vibrato on and off.

Selecting & Playing Voices
The instrument has a wide variety of Voices, or instrument sounds, for your enjoyment, including Piano and
Organ.
NOTE

Selecting a Voice
The Voices of the instrument are conveniently divided into
specific groups and each of them are assigned to the Voice
buttons.

Press a Voice button (page 9).
A Voice is called up from the selected group. Try
playing the keyboard and listening to the sound.

Lights up

• To familiarize yourself with the characteristics of the voices, listen to the
Demo Songs for each Voice (page 18).

Using Table EQ
When this is set to on, speaker sound will be optimized for playing the keyboard placed on the table or
desk. This function is effective only from the sound
output of the instrument speakers. Turn off when you
play the keyboard installed on the stand.

Troubleshooting
Appendix
Problem

Possible Cause and Solution

When the instrument is turned on or off, a popping sound is temporarily produced.

This is normal and indicates that the instrument is receiving electrical power.

The instrument does not turn on.

The instrument has not been plugged in properly. Securely connect the AC adaptor to
the DC IN jack on the instrument and to the AC outlet (page 10).

When the instrument is turned on, the power
turns off suddenly and unexpectedly.

If an AC adaptor other than the one specified is used, the power may be turned off suddenly and unexpectedly.

The instrument is automatically turned off even if
no operation is done.

This is normal. This occurs due to the Auto Power Off function (page 10).

Noise is heard from the speakers or headphones.

The noise may be due to interference caused by the use of a mobile phone in close proximity to the instrument. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the instrument.

Noise can be heard coming from the digital
In order to eliminate the risk of noise from other communication when using the instrupiano’s built-in speakers and/or headphones
ment with an iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch, we recommend turning on the device’s Airwhen using it with an iPhone/iPad/iPod touch app. plane Mode.
The Master Volume is set too low; set it to an appropriate level using the [MASTER
VOLUME] (page 11).
The digital piano’s speakers are turned off. Turn them back on (page 23).
The overall volume is low, or no sound is heard.

Make sure a pair of headphones or conversion adaptor is not connected to the headphones jack (page 11).
Make sure that Local Control is ON. For details, refer to “MIDI Reference” (page 8) on
the website.
Have you set the external speaker volume to “Fixed”?
Change the external speaker volume to “Variable.” (page 23)

The pedal has no effect.

The pedal cable/plug may not be properly connected. Make sure to securely insert the
pedal plug into the [SUSTAIN] or [PEDAL UNIT] jack (page 12).

The footswitch (for sustain) seems to produce
the opposite effect. For example, pressing the
footswitch cuts off the sound and releasing it
sustains the sounds.

The polarity of the footswitch is reversed because the footswitch was pressed when the
power was turned on. Turn off the power and turn it on again to reset the function. Make
sure to not press the footswitch when turning the power on.

Appendix

Moving the [MASTER VOLUME] slider does not
change the volume of the headphones.

Voice List (Detailed)
Voice Button
(Group)

Variation

Voice Name

Grand Piano

This sound was sampled from a concert grand piano. It uses different samples
depending on the strength of your playing and produces smoother tonal changes.
Even the tonal changes produced by the damper pedal and the subtle sounds of
releasing a key are reproduced. The sympathetic vibration (string resonance) that
occurs among the strings of an acoustic piano has also been simulated. Suitable not
only for classical compositions but also for piano pieces of any style.

1

Live Grand

Spacious and clear piano with bright reverb. Good for popular music.

2

Ballad Grand

Warm and soft piano sound. Good for relaxing music.

Bright Grand

Bright piano sound. Clear tone helps the sound to “cut through” when playing in an
ensemble.

Stage E.Piano

The sound of an electric piano using hammer-struck metallic “tines.” Soft tone when
played lightly, and an aggressive tone when played hard.

1

DX E.Piano

An electronic piano sound created by FM synthesis. Extremely “musical” response
with varying timbre according to keyboard dynamics. Good for standard popular
music.

2

Vintage E.Piano

A slightly different electric piano sound often heard in rock and popular music.

3

Synth Piano

A synth-generated type electronic piano sound often heard in popular music. Used in
the Dual mode it blends well with an acoustic piano Voice.

“ROTARY SP” effect can be switched by using the left pedal.

[PIANO]

play. When the separately sold Pedal Unit (LP-1B/LP-1WH) is connected, the left
pedal switches Vibrato on and off.

Strings

Stereo-sampled, large-scale strings ensemble with realistic reverb. Try combining
this Voice with piano in the Dual mode.

1
