Introduction
Main features
Thirty high-quality sounds
The SP-280 provides 30 built-in expressive high-quality
sounds, including a stereo concert grand piano. You can
use Layer mode to simultaneously play two sounds at once,
or you can use Partner mode, which allows two people to
play the same range, one on each half of the keyboard.
Eects
TheSP-280provides3built-indigitaleects.Theseeects
can adjust the brightness of the tone (Brilliance), simulate
the natural ambience of a concert hall (Reverb) and add
richness to the sound (Chorus).
Pedal eects
Youcanobtainthesamedampereectasthatofanacous-
tic piano using the damper pedal that is included with the
unit. You can also add the damper resonance to the classic
piano and the grand piano tone (bank 1 and 2 of PIANO1).
Furthermore, the damper pedal can function as a half
damper pedal so that you can change the condition that
the damper is applied by the depth to which the pedal is
pressed.
Use optional pedal unit (sold separately) for soft and soste-
nutoeectsinadditiontothedampereect.
Metronome
The built-in metronome allows you to select the time sig-
nature, tempo, and volume, and you can even choose a bell
sound as the accent.
Touch control
Youcanchoosefromthreedierentseingstoadjusthow
the sound will respond to your keyboard playing dynamics.
Temperaments
For authentic performance of a wide range of music, the
SP-280 allows you to select from nine temperaments, in-
cluding the equal temperament, pure temperaments (ma-
jor and minor), classical temperaments (Kirnberger and
Werckmeister) as well as temperaments used with Middle
Eastern and Indian folk music. When an acoustic piano
sound is selected, the stretched tuning used on pianos is
automatically selected.
Adjustable pitch
The Transpose function lets you change the pitch of the
piano, and the Pitch Control function allows you to make
nelytunedadjustments.
Two headphone jacks
Two headphone jacks (one each on the front and back of
the SP-280) are provided, allowing two people to listen si-
multaneously.
LINE IN/LINE OUT jacks
When connecting a sound system or other electronic musi-
cal instrument to the LINE IN jack, sound from the con-
nected device will be heard through the speakers of the SP-
280. In addition, powered monitors or a recording system
can be connected by using the LINE OUT jacks.
MIDI capabilities
The SP-280 supports the MIDI protocol, the standard that
allows music data to be transferred between musical instru-
ments and computers. MIDI allows two or more devices to
control or be controlled by each other, and also allows you
to use the SP-280 as a 16-part multitimbral tone generator.

Before you begin playing
About the included stand
If the stand is to be used, see the “Installing the stand” section on page 16 before con-
nectingtheACadapterandaachingthemusicstand.
Connecting the Power
Connect the supplied AC adapter to the power cord. Insert the DC plug end into the
DC19V jack on the rear panel of the unit. Next, plug the power cord into an AC outlet.
Pass the AC adapter cord through the cord hook so that the plug won’t be re-
moved from the jack accidentally. When you unhook the cord, don’t pull the cord
with force.
Be sure to use the AC adapter that came with your unit. Using other AC adapters
may cause the unit to malfunction.
Be sure to plug the unit into an AC outlet of the appropriate voltage.
Using the headphones
Use stereo headphones with a stereo mini plug.
Since there is one headphone jack on the back (Fig. 1) and one on the front (Fig. 2), two
people can listen simultaneously.
When the headphone plug is inserted into the headphone jack on the front or back of
the SP-280, no sound will be produced from the speakers. Use headphones at night or
when you dont want disturb others.
If your headphones feature a standard-to-mini adapter plug, be sure to hold the
adapter plug when you connect or disconnect the headphones.
To protect your hearing, do not listen to loud, high-volume sounds for a long pe-
riod of time through headphones.
Using the music stand
Insert the pins on the included music stand into the music stand holes in the rear
panel. (Fig. 2)
Donotpressdownonthemusicstandwithforce,otherwiseitmayfallothe

Adjust the volume
Rotate the VOLUME knob that’s located next to the power switch toward “MAX” to
raise the volume level.
Rotate it left toward “MIN” to lower the level. (Fig. 3)
The VOLUME knob controls the output level of the built-in speakers, the headphones
jacks and the LINE OUT jacks.

What is MIDI?
MIDI, is the abbreviation of Musical Instrument Digital
Interface. It is an international standard that was created
to connect and transfer data between electronic musical
instruments, computers and other devices.
What can you do with MIDI?
Thanks to MIDI, you can use the SP-280 to control other
instruments, use other instruments to control the SP-280,
and use a sequencer to create complex musical pieces.
When you use the SP-280 keyboard or pedal, or select a
sound, the notes, pedal activation and change in sound are
transmitted to another instrument, or are recorded by a
sequencer.
Connections
Commercially available MIDI cables are used to transfer
MIDI data. Connect these cables from the MIDI connectors
of the SP-280 to the MIDI connectors of the external MIDI
device that you want to exchange data with. There are two
types of MIDI connector.
MIDIINconnector
This connector receives MIDI messages.
The MIDI IN connector lets you play the SP-280s sounds
from an external MIDI device (e.g., MIDI keyboard or se-
quencer). Use a MIDI cable to connect the SP-280’s MIDI IN
connector to your external MIDI device’s MIDI OUT con-
nector.
MIDIOUTconnector
This connector transmits MIDI messages.
The MIDI OUT connector lets you control an external
MIDI device using the MIDI messages transmitted from
the SP-280. Use a MIDI cable to connect the SP-280’s MIDI
OUT connector to your external MIDI device’s MIDI IN
connector.
MIDI function mode
When the SP-280 is turned on, the MIDI parameters are set
to transmission channel 1, all reception channels (1–16),

Appendix
Troubleshooting
If during use any of the following problems should occur,
carefullyexaminetheinstrumenttoseeifyoucanndout
what the problem is, and try resolving it by following the
suggestions below. If the instrument will still not function
properly refer to your dealer.
The instrument will not turn on
Check that the AC adapter is correctly connected to the
piano and the outlet.
No sound
Make sure that the volume is not set on MIN. If it is,
bring it up to an adequate level.
Make sure that the MIDI Local function is not set on
OFF.Ifitis,setittoON(orturntheinstrumentoand
then on again).
Make sure there is not a jack plugged into one of the
Headphones jacks. This would turn the internal speak-
erso.ifso,unplugthejack.
Notes are interrupted
You have exceeded the maximum polyphony. see
About maximum polyphony.
The pitch or tone of the piano sounds wrong in some
key regions
The SP-280s piano sounds replicate the sound of an
actual piano as faithfully as possible. This means that
in some regions of the keyboard, you may feel that
the overtones seem stronger, or that the tone or pitch
seems wrong. This is not a malfunction.
The connected MIDI device does not respond to trans-
mitted MIDI data
Make sure that all MIDI cables are correctly connected.
Make sure that the SP-280 is receiving MIDI data on the
same channel as the MIDI device.
About maximum polyphony
If the number of notes being played simultaneously ex-
ceeds the maximum polyphony, some notes will be lost
since the SP-280 is equipped with a mechanism that stops
therstnotebeingplayedtogiveprioritytonotesplayed
with keys pressed later. Some SP-280 sounds, although
they may be a single sound, are generated by two or more
oscillators (one note of a sound-generating circuit). Sounds
using just one oscillator, such as those in banks 1 and 2 of
VIBES/GUITAR, have a maximum polyphony of 120 notes.
Sounds using two oscillators, such as those in banks 1 and
2 of PIANO2 and in banks 1 and 3 of E.PIANO2, have a
maximum polyphony of 60 notes.
120 ÷ Number of sound oscillators = Maximum polyphony
Keep the maximum polyphony in mind and carefully
choose sounds when using Layer mode to play two sounds
simultaneously or when using the damper pedal.

Warning
The stand must be installed by at least two people.
Installation precautions
Be sure to observe the following precautions in order to
safely and correctly perform the installation.
Make sure that the correct parts are in the correct ori-
entation and position, and perform the installation in
the order of the steps provided.
Other precautions
Observe the following precautions after the stand has been
installed.
• Loosenedscrews
Since the screws may become loose as time passes af-
ter installation, we recommend periodically checking
for loose screws. In addition, if you feel that the stand
shakes excessively, it may be due to screws becoming
loose. In that case, re-tighten them.
• Whentransportingtheinstrument
Transporting the instrument with the stand installed
may result in unforeseen damage. Remove the stand
from the SP-280, and then transport them separately.
After they have been transported, re-install the stand
as described in “Installing the stand”.
• Removal
Remove the stand by reversing the installation proce-
dure. After removal, store the screws and other parts
so they will not be lost.
Installation procedure
Make sure that all of the following parts are available.
In addition, check if enough of the bolts on the front legs
extend out (14 mm or more), and then install the legs after
adjusting the bolt lengths.
If the bolts are not long enough (less than 14 mm), turn
the adjusters until they reach an appropriate length.

Tempéraments
Afin de garantir un jeu authentique dans un vaste éventail de
styles musicaux, le SP-280 vous permet de choisir parmi neuf tem-
péraments, comprenant la gamme tempérée, les tempéraments
purs (majeur et mineur), les tempéraments classiques (Kirnberger
et Werckmeister) ainsi que des tempéraments utilisés dans la
musique traditionnelle d’Inde et du Moyen-Orient. Quand vous

Prises LINE IN/LINE OUT
Quand vous reliez un dispositif audio ou un autre instrument
de musique électronique à la prise LINE IN, le son de l’appareil
connecté est reproduit sur les enceintes du SP-280. En outre, vous
pouvez connecter des retours actifs ou un système d’enregistre-
ment via les prises LINE OUT.
Caractéristiques MIDI
Le SP-280 supporte le protocole MIDI, c’est à dire un protocole
standard qui permet d’échanger des données musicales entre
instruments musicaux et ordinateurs. Le protocole MIDI permet à
deux dispositifs (ou plus) de piloter ou d’être pilotés l’un l’autre ;
le SP-280 peut ainsi fonctionner comme un générateur sonore à 16
parties multitimbres.
