Brilliance
The [BRILLIANCE] button makes it possible to change the tonality or “timbre” of the selected
voice to suit your musical requirements. Three settings are provided: MELLOW, NORMAL, and
BRIGHT. To select one of these settings, press the [BRILLIANCE] button a few times until the
indicator corresponding to the desired setting lights.
NORMAL ..... This setting produces the “normal” tone of the selected voice.
BRIGHT ....... This setting creates a brighter, sharper tone.
MELLOW ..... The MELLOW setting produces a rounder, softer tone.
● Memorizing the Brilliance Press the C7 key while holding the [BRILLIANCE] button to memorize

Reverb
The [REVERB] button selects a number of digital reverb effects that you can use for
extra depth and expressive power.
To select a reverb type press the [REVERB] button a few times until the indicator
corresponding to the desired type lights (the indicators light in sequence each time the
[REVERB] button is pressed). No reverb is produced when all indicators are off.
ROOM ........ This setting add a continuous reverb effect to the sound that is similar to the type of
acoustic reverberation you would hear in a medium-size room.
HALL 1 ...... For a “bigger” reverb sound, use the HALL 1 setting. This effect simulates the natu-
ral reverberation of a medium-size concert hall.
HALL 2 ...... For a really spacious reverb sound, use the HALL 2 setting. This effect simulates the
natural reverberation of a large concert hall.
COSMIC .... The COSMIC reverb effect produces an echo-plus-reverb sound that can add life and
animation to your music.
● Adjusting Reverb Depth The depth of the selected reverb effect can be adjusted for the current
voice (separate settings can be made for each voice) by using the C2

The [EFFECT] button selects a range of three effects that you can use in addition to the
REVERB effects.
To select an effect press the [EFFECT] button a few times until the indicator correspond-
ing to the desired effect lights (the indicators light in sequence each time the [EFFECT]
button is pressed). No effect is produced when all indicators are off.
DETUNE ...... DETUNE delivers a thick, multi-instrument sound by producing two notes of
slightly different pitch for every single note you play on the keyboard — i.e.
the two notes are slightly “detuned.”
CHORUS ..... This produces an animated “shimmering” effect that both thickens the sound
and gives it a more lively feel.
TREMOLO ... TREMOLO is a gentle variation in volume that gives the sound a more dy-
namic feel. The tremolo speed is independently preset for each voice.

The Pedals
The CLP-157 has three foot pedals that produce a range of expressive effects similar to
those produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano.
● Soft (Left) Pedal Pressing the soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played.
The soft pedal actually functions in eight levels, depending on how hard it is pressed.
● Sostenuto (Center) If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal while the note(s)
Pedal are held, those notes will be sustained as long as the pedal is held (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.”
● Damper (Right) The damper pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When
Pedal the damper pedal is pressed notes played have a long sustain. When a piano voice is selected
the damper pedal also produces a special “resonance” that simulates the ring of the strings and
the sound board of an acoustic piano. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any sus-
tained notes. The CLP-157 damper pedal additionally features continuous damping. This al-
lows you to create shorter effects by pressing the damper pedal down only part of the way.

Touch Sensitivity
The [TOUCH SENSITIVITY] button selects four different types of keyboard touch sensitivity —
HARD, MEDIUM, SOFT or FIXED — to match different playing styles and preferences. The different
touch sensitivity settings are selected by using the [TOUCH SENSITIVITY] button.
HARD ............................ The HARD setting requires the keys to be played quite hard to produce maximum loudness.
MEDIUM ....................... The MEDIUM setting produces a fairly “standard” keyboard response. This is the initial
factory default setting.
SOFT ............................ The SOFT setting allows maximum loudness to be produced with relatively light key
pressure.
FIXED (No indicator lit) ... All notes are produced at the same volume no matter how hard the keyboard is played.
This is an ideal setting for voices which normally have no keyboard sensitivity (i.e.
harpsichord and organ).

Transposition
The Clavinova’s TRANSPOSE function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire key-
board up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of six semitones. “Transposing” the
pitch of the Clavinova keyboard facilitates playing in difficult key signatures, and you can easily
match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instrumentalist.
The [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button and keys F#2 through F#3 on the keyboard, or the TEMPO [s] and [t] buttons, are
used for transposition.
Z Press and hold the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button. The current transpose setting
will appear on the TEMPO display (“-6” semitones through “0” through “6”

Pitch Control
Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Clavinova over a ±50-cent range (approximate) in ap-
proximately 1.2-cent or 1-hertz intervals. A hundred “cents” equals one semitone, so the tuning range
provided allows fine tuning of overall pitch over a range of approximately a semitone. Pitch control is
useful for tuning the Clavinova to match other instruments or recorded music.
● Tuning Up Z To tune up (raise pitch), hold the A-1 and B-1 keys simultaneously
(A-1 and B-1 are the two lowest white keys on the keyboard) and press

The Metronome & Tempo Control
The CLP-157 built-in metronome is a convenient feature for practice, and it can also provide
a solid rhythmic guide when recording using the Recorder feature, described below.
The Metronome
METRONOME The metronome sound is turned on and off via the [METRONOME] button.

Using the Recorder
The CLP-157 features a two-track recorder that lets you record what you play on the keyboard and then
play it back. Since you have two tracks, you can “overdub” one part on top of another, using a different
voice if you like, to create complex, rich-sounding recordings. The recorder feature is a useful adjunct to
any keyboard study program, since it lets you hear exactly how you sound from the listener’s perspective.
It can also be just plain fun.
The recorder actually records the following data:
Parameters Recorded for Each track Parameters Recorded for the Entire Song
● Notes played ● Voice selection ● Dual mode voices ● Reverb type ● Reverb depth
● Dual balance ● Damper pedal ● Soft pedal ● Tempo (initial setting only)
● Sostenuto pedal (not recorded as an initial setting)

without recording any data.
Playback
To play back what you’ve recorded, first make sure that the green track indicators of
RECORDER

data. The current measure number will appear on the TEMPO display during playback.
You can also stop playback at any time by pressing the [PLAY] button. To mute a
track so that it doesn’t play back, press the corresponding track button so that its indi-
cator goes out (press again to turn the track back on).
NOTE • All recorder data will be retained in memory for about one week after the power is
turned off. If you want to keep your recorded data for longer periods, turn the power on
briefly at least once a week. It is also possible to store it to an external MIDI storage
device such as the Yamaha DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit by using the Bulk Dump
function described on page 22.
• The track indicators will not light automatically when the power is turned on even if the
recorder contains data. It is therefore necessary to press the track buttons so that the
corresponding green indicators light before starting RECORDER playback. It is also a
good idea to press the track buttons to check if the tracks contain data before record-
ing. If the green indicator lights when the corresponding track button is pressed, that
track contains data which will be erased and replaced by the newly-recorded data.
• If the metronome is being used during playback, the metronome will stop when play-
back is stopped.

MIDI Functions
● A Brief Introduction to MIDI MIDI, the Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a world-standard com-
munication interface that allows MIDI-compatible musical instruments and
MIDI Cable equipment to share musical information and control one another. This
MIDI OUT MIDI IN makes it possible to create “systems” of MIDI instruments and equipment
that offer far greater versatility and control than is available with isolated
DOU-10 instruments. For example, most MIDI keyboards (including the Clavinova,
of course) transmit note and velocity (touch response) information via the
Clavinova MIDI OUT connector whenever a note is played on the keyboard. If the
MIDI OUT connector is connected to the MIDI IN connector of a second
keyboard (synthesizer, etc.) or a tone generator (essentially a synthesizer
with no keyboard), the second keyboard or tone generator will respond
precisely to notes played on the original transmitting keyboard. The result is
that you can effectively play two instruments at once, providing thick multi-
instrument sounds.
Data Being Recorded
This same type of musical information transfer is used for MIDI se-
Playback Data
quence recording. A sequence recorder can be used to “record” MIDI data

received from a Clavinova, for example. When the recorded data is played
back, the Clavinova automatically “plays” the recorded performance in

precise detail.
Clavinova
The examples given above really only scratch the surface. MIDI can do
much, much more. The CLP-157 offers a number of MIDI functions that
allows it to be used in fairly sophisticated MIDI systems.
NOTE • Always use a high-quality MIDI cable to connect MIDI OUT to MIDI IN
terminals. Never use MIDI cables longer than about 15 feet, since cables
longer than this can pick up noise which can cause data errors.
● MIDI “Messages” Transmitted The MIDI information (messages) transmitted and received by the CLP-
& Received by the Clavinova 157 Clavinova are as follows:
Note and Velocity Data

This information tells the receiving keyboard or tone generator to play a certain note (specified by the MIDI
note number) at a certain dynamic level (specified by the MIDI velocity value). Note and velocity data is trans-
mitted by the Clavinova whenever a key is pressed, and the Clavinova’s internal AWM tone generator will
“play” the corresponding note(s) whenever note and velocity data is received from an external MIDI device.
Program Change Numbers

The CLP-157 transmits a MIDI program change number between 0 and 9 when one of its voice selectors is
pressed. This normally causes the correspondingly numbered voice to be selected on a receiving MIDI device.
The Clavinova will respond in the same way, automatically selecting the appropriate voice when a MIDI pro-
gram change number is received. See “Program Change ON/OFF” on page 20 for information on turning pro-
gram change number reception and transmission ON or OFF.
Control Change Numbers

Control Change data representing Damper pedal operation is transmitted by the Clavinova whenever one of
these pedals is used. If the receiving device is a tone generator or another keyboard, it will respond in the same
way as the Clavinova’s internal tone generator when one of the pedals is used. The Clavinova also receives and
responds to the appropriate control change data. See “Control Change ON/OFF” on page 21 for information on
turning control change number reception and transmission ON or OFF.

tor will respond only to channel-1 information transmitted by the sequence
recorder, while the second instrument or tone generator will respond only to
channel-2 information. This allows the sequence recorder to “play” two
completely different parts on the receiving instruments or tone generators.
Clavinova
(Set to receive on MIDI channel 1)
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and
receiving equipment must be matched for proper data transfer. An “OMNI”
receive mode is also available, which allows reception on all 16 MIDI chan-
nels. In the OMNI mode it is not necessary to match the receive channel of
the receiving device to the transmit channel of the transmitting device (ex-
MIDI/
cept when receiving mode messages).

● Local Control ON/OFF

“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the Clavinova 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 Clavinova keyboard does not play the internal voices,
but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector when notes are played on
the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI
IN connector.
When using the DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit with the Clavinova, for example, Local Control should be
turned OFF when recording using the DOU-10 voices only, and ON when recording the Clavinova voices while
listening to playback of the DOU-10 voices.

● Program Change ON/OFF

Normally the Clavinova will respond to MIDI program change numbers received from an external keyboard
or other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly numbered Clavinova voice to be selected. The Clavinova
will normally also send a MIDI program change number whenever one of its voices is selected, causing the
correspondingly 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 Clavinova without affecting the external MIDI device, and vice versa.

● Control Change ON/OFF
Normally the Clavinova will respond to MIDI control change data received from an external MIDI device or
keyboard, causing the selected Clavinova voice to be affected by pedal and other “control” settings received
from the controlling device. The Clavinova also transmits MIDI control change information when one of its
pedals are operated.
This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission if you do not want
the Clavinova voices to be affected by control change data received from an external device or vice versa.

● The MIDI Split & Left Local OFF Mode

In the MIDI split mode one section of the Clavinova keyboard is used to play a Clavinova voice in the normal
way, while the remaining section is used to play a second MIDI keyboard or tone generator such as the Yamaha
DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit. In this mode the right-hand section of the keyboard is used to play an internal
Clavinova voice, while the left-hand section of the keyboard plays the external keyboard or tone generator.
Playing the left-hand section of the keyboard produces no sound from the Clavinova. The “split point,” or the
key that divides the left- and right-hand sections of the keyboard can be set at any desired key.
The MIDI split mode is useful if, for example, you want to play a piano
(Clavinova) voice with the right hand while playing a synthesizer bass line
AUX IN OUT PUT MIDI

When the MIDI split mode is activated, notes played on the left-hand

channel 2. Notes played on the right-hand section are transmitted on the

● The MIDI Split & Right Local Off Mode

In the CLP-157 either the right- or left-hand section of the keyboard can be assigned to control an external
keyboard or tone generator. Assigning the left-hand section to external tone generator control was described in
the previous section. To assign the right-hand section to external tone generator control while playing the
Clavinova voices with the left hand, press the [E.PIANO 2] voice selector instead of the [E.PIANO 1] voice
selector when activating the Split mode (see the preceding section). All other operations are exactly the same as
described in the previous section.
● Transmitting the Panel Settings

This function causes all the current Clavinova control settings (selected voice, etc) to be transmitted via the
MIDI OUT terminal. This is particularly useful if you will be recording performances to a MIDI sequence re-
corder which will be used to control the Clavinova on playback. By transmitting the Clavinova panel settings
and recording them on the MIDI sequence recorder prior to the actual performance data, the Clavinova will be
automatically restored to the same settings when the performance is played back.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter what appears to be a malfunction, please check the following
points before assuming that your Clavinova is faulty.
1. No Sound When the Power is Turned ON

Is the AC plug properly connected to an AC wall outlet? Check the AC connection carefully. Is the MASTER
VOLUME control turned up to a reasonable listening level?
2. The Clavinova Reproduces Radio or TV Sound

This can occur if there is a high-power transmitter in your vicinity. Contact your Yamaha dealer.
3. Intermittent Static Noise

This is usually due to turning ON or OFF a household appliance or other electronic equipment which is fed by the
same AC mains line as your Clavinova.
4. Interference Appears On Radio or TV Sets Located Near the Clavinova

The Clavinova contains digital circuitry which can generate radio-frequency noise. The solution is to move the
Clavinova further away from the affected equipment, or vice versa.
5. Distorted Sound When the Clavinova is Connected to An External Amplifier/Speaker System

If the Clavinova is connected to a stereo system or instrument amplifier and the sound is distorted, reduce the set-
ting of the Clavinova volume control to a level at which the distortion ceases.
