Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha Digital Piano!

We recommend that you read this manual carefully so that you can

fully take advantage of the advanced and convenient functions.

We also recommend that you keep this manual in a safe and

handy place for future reference.

Main Features

Graded Hammer Effect Keyboard

Thanks to our experience as the world’s leading manufacturer of acoustic pianos, we’ve developed a keyboard with

action that’s virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. Just as on a traditional acoustic piano, the keys of the lower

notes have a heavier touch, while the higher ones are more responsive to lighter playing. The keyboard’s sensitivity can

even be adjusted to match your playing style.

AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling

This digital piano offers a rich and versatile range of sounds, which are created using Yamaha’s proprietary sampling

tone-generation system, “AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling.”

AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) is a sampling system that creates sounds close to those of an acoustic instrument by

digitally recording the sounds of an instrument and applying high-quality digital ﬁltering technology to the recorded

audio samples.

The sound waveform created by an acoustic piano differs depending on the player’s strength of touch, from pianissimo

to fortissimo.

AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling can create extremely dynamic nuances by recording samples at various playing

strengths. The greater the number of samples used, the greater the resulting expressiveness of the instrument.

The piano voice “Grand Piano 1” features a totally new sample recorded from a full-size concert grand piano. Each

note in the sample has been adjusted meticulously so that the digital piano will play only the very best piano sounds.

The piano voices are well-separated sounds featuring a fast attack and a satisfying response.

The “Grand Piano 1” voice features multiple wave samples for different velocities (Dynamic Sampling). That is, differ-

ent samples are used depending on how fast or strong the player strikes the keys. Therefore, this voice expresses

detailed dynamics and sounds much closer to those of a true acoustic piano.

The instrument creates a rich, luxurious sound using “Sustain Sampling,” which is a sample of the soundboard and the

resonance of the strings when the damper pedal is pressed. The instrument also features “Key-off Sampling,” which is a

sample of the very delicate noises that are caused when keys are released.

Practicing a One-Hand Part Using the 50 Preset Songs

(Part Cancel Function)

The 50 preset songs have separate left- and right-hand parts on individual parts. You can turn the

left- and right-hand parts on or off as required so you can practice the corresponding part (the part

is played by [LEFT].

1. Turn off the playback part you wish to practice.

After you select a song to practice, press the [RIGHT] or [LEFT] button to turn

off the corresponding part.

When you ﬁrst select a song, both [RIGHT] and [LEFT] indicators light up, indi-

cating that you can play back both parts. When you press one of the buttons to

turn off playback, the corresponding button indicator turns off and the corre-

sponding part playback is muted.

Pressing the buttons repeatedly toggles playback between on and off. The parts

Adding Variations to the Sound – [BRILLIANCE]/

[REVERB]/[EFFECT]/“Damper Resonance”

[BRILLIANCE]

You can use this control to adjust the brilliance of the tone and change the tonality to

suit your preference.

BRIGHT: Bright tone

NORMAL: Standard tone

MELLOW: Soft and mellow tone

To select a brilliance type, press the [BRILLIANCE] button a few times until the indica-

tor corresponding to the desired type lights (the indicator lights in sequence each time

you press the [BRILLIANCE] button). Brilliance can be selected among ﬁve types. When

two adjacent indicators are lit, the type that is between the two indicated types is

selected. For example, when both NORMAL and MELLOW are lit, the brilliance set-

ting between NORMAL and MELLOW is selected.

[REVERB]

This control enables you to select various digital reverb effects for adding extra depth

and expression to the sound and creating a realistic acoustic ambience.

OFF: When no reverb effect is selected, no REVERB indicator is lit.

ROOM: This setting adds a continuous reverb effect to the sound, similar to the

acoustic reverberation you would hear in a room.

HALL 1: For a “bigger” reverb sound, use the HALL 1 setting. This effect simulates

the natural reverberation of a small-size concert hall.

HALL 2: For a truly spacious reverb sound, use the HALL 2 setting. This effect simu-

lates the natural reverberation of a large concert hall.

STAGE: Simulates the reverb of a stage environment.

Pressing the [REVERB] button repeatedly toggles the reverb on and off.

The indicators light in sequence each time the [REVERB] button is pressed. When all

indicators are off, no effect is produced.

Adjusting Reverb Depth

Adjust the reverb depth for the selected voice by using the

[–/NO] [+/YES] buttons

while holding the

[REVERB] button. Default depth settings are different for each voice.

The depth range is from 0 (no effect) through 20 (maximum reverb depth). The cur-

rent depth setting appears on the display while the [REVERB] button is held.
