Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha Electronic Piano P-70/P-70S!
We recommend that you read this manual carefully
so that you can fully take advantage of the advanced and
convenient functions of the P-70/P-70S.
We also recommend that you keep this manual in a safe and
handy place for future reference.
Main Features
Graded Hammer Standard Keyboard
Thanks to our experience as the worlds leading manufacturer of acoustic pianos, weve developed a keyboard with
action thats 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 keyboards sensitivity can
even be adjusted to match your playing style. This Graded Hammer technology also enables the P-70 to provide
authentic touch in a lightweight instrument.
AWM Stereo Sampling
The Yamaha P-70 electronic piano offers unmatched sonic realism and natural grand-piano type playability as well as
Yamahas original AWM Stereo Sampling tone-generation technology for rich, musical voices.
In particular, the Grand Piano 1 and 2 voices feature samples painstakingly recorded from a full concert grand piano,
while the Electric Piano 1 and 2 voice features multiple samples for different velocities (Dynamic Sampling); in other
words, it uses different samples depending on the strength of your playing.

Transposition
The P-70s Transpose function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down
in semitone intervals to facilitate playing in difficult key signatures, and to let you easily match the
pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instruments. For example, if you set the
transposition amount to +5, playing key C produces pitch F. In this way, you can play a song as
though it were in C major, and the P-70 will transpose it to the key of F.
Setting the amount of transposition
While holding down the [DEMO/SONG] and [GRAND PIANO/VOICE] buttons, press one of the F#2F#3 keys to set the desired amount of transposition.

Connecting MIDI Instruments

The P-70 features MIDI IN/OUT terminals, allowing you to connect the
P-70 to other instruments and devicesincluding computersand
take advantage of the various performance and recording capabilities
in MIDI applications.

NOTE
Since MIDI data that can be

transmitted or received varies
depending on the type of MIDI
device, check the MIDI Implementation Chart to find out what
MIDI data and commands your
devices can transmit or receive.
The P-70s MIDI Implementation
Chart appears on page 27.
MIDI [IN] [OUT] terminals

Use MIDI cables to connect external MIDI devices to these
connectors.
About MIDI
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a standard format for data transmission/reception. It enables the transfer of performance data and commands between
MIDI devices and personal computers. Using MIDI, you can control a connected MIDI
device from the P-70, or control the P-70 from a connected MIDI device or computer.
MIDIs Capability
MIDI functions enable you to transfer performance data between MIDI
devices.

For MIDI connections, use a standard (optional) MIDI cable, available at most musical instrument
stores.
Connecting a Personal Computer

By connecting a computer to the MIDI terminals, you can transfer data between the P-70 and the
computer via MIDI.
CAUTION
NOTE
When connecting the P-70 to a computer, first turn off the power to both the P-70 and the computer before connecting any cables. After making connections, turn on the power to the computer first, then to the P-70.
When the P-70 is used as a tone

module, performance data with
voices that are not found on the
P-70 will not be played correctly.
Use a USB interface device to connect the USB port on your computer to the P-70s
MIDI terminals. You must install the USB interface (such as the UX16, UX96, or
UX256) driver. For more information, refer to the users manual that came with the
USB interface device.

MIDI Transmit/Receive Channel

Selection
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and
receiving devices must be matched for proper data transfer.
This parameter enables you to specify the channel on which the P-70
transmits or receives MIDI data.
NOTE
In Dual, Voice 1 data is transmitted on its specified channel and

Voice 2 data is transmitted on the
next greater channel number relative to the specified channel. In
this case, no data is transmitted if
the transmit channel is set to
OFF.

Local Control ON/OFF

Local Control refers to the fact that, normally, the P-70 keyboard controls its internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the keyboard. This situation is Local
Control On, since the internal tone generator is controlled locally by its own keyboard.
Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that the P-70 keyboard does not play the internal
voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT terminal when
notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator responds to MIDI
information received via the MIDI IN terminal.

NOTE
For information on program

change numbers for each of the
P-70s voices, refer to MIDI Data
Format on page 27.
ENGLISH
Normally the P-70 will respond to MIDI program change numbers received from an external keyboard or other MIDI device, causing the same numbered voice to be selected on the corresponding
channel (the keyboard voice does not change). The P-70 will normally also send a MIDI program
change number whenever one of its voices is selected, causing the same numbered voice or program to be selected on the external MIDI device if the device is set up to receive and respond to
MIDI program change numbers. This function makes it possible to cancel program change number
reception and transmission so that voices can be selected on the P-70 without affecting the external
MIDI device.
Default setting: ON
Control Change ON/OFF

Normally the P-70 will respond to MIDI control change data received from an external MIDI device
or keyboard, causing the voice on the corresponding channel to be affected by pedal and other
control settings received from the controlling device (the keyboard voice is not affected). The P70 also transmits MIDI control change information when the pedal or other appropriate controls
are operated.
This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission so that,
for example, the P-70s pedal and other controls can be operated without affecting an external
MIDI device.
While holding down the [DEMO/SONG] and [GRAND PIANO/VOICE] buttons, press the D6 key. Pressing the D6 key repeatedly toggles between Control

Problem
Possible Cause and Solution
The P-70 does not turn on.
The P-70 has not been plugged in properly. Securely insert the female plug into the
socket on the P-70, and the male plug into a proper AC outlet (page 11).
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 P-70. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the P-70.
The overall volume is low, or no sound is

heard.
The Master Volume is set too low; set it to an appropriate level using the [MASTER
VOLUME] control.
Make sure a pair of headphones is not connected to the headphones jack
(page 12).
Make sure that Local Control (page 22) is ON.
