Using Headphones
Using headphones cuts off output from the built-in speakers, which means you can practice playing even late at night without disturbing others. Be sure to turn down the volume level before connecting headphones.
Touch Response alters tone volume in accordance with keyboard pressure (speed). This provides you some of the same expressivity you get on an acoustic piano.

PHONES/OUTPUT jack

Keyboard Instrument Sound Intensity
Sound intensity depends on the speed that keys are pressed.
People normally believe that the stronger the pressure applied to a piano keyboard, the louder the sound. Actually, however, the intensity of the notes played depends on the speed at which keys are pressed. Notes are louder when keys are pressed quickly, and quieter when keys are pressed slowly. Keeping this in mind as you play a keyboard musical instrument lets you control note volume without striving to apply too much pressure with your fingertips.
Headphones do not come with the Digital Keyboard. Use commercially available headphones. See page E-1 for information about options.
The playability of an acoustic piano
Do not listen to very high volume output over headphones for long period. Doing so creates the risk of hearing damage. If you are using headphones that require an adaptor plug, make sure you do not leave the adaptor plugged in when removing the headphones. Your Digital Keyboard provides you with key touch that is the next best thing to an acoustic piano. Note volume changes automatically in accordance with key press speed.
Pressing fast produces louder notes.
Pressing slowly produces softer notes.
Do not try to use too much pressure.

Changing Touch Response Sensitivity
Use the procedure below to control how much the volume of played notes change in accordance with playing speed. Select the setting that best matches your playing style.
Turning Off Keyboard Lighting
Keyboard Lighting causes keyboard keys to light when you press them, during built-in song playback, etc. You can use the following procedure to turn off Keyboard Lighting.

Using the Metronome

The metronome lets you play and practice along with a steady beat to help keep you on tempo.
Changing the Metronome Tempo
Use the following procedure to change the tempo of the metronome.

Start/Stop

1. Press bn.
Use y (slower) and t (faster) to change the tempo setting. Holding down either button changes the setting at high speed. Pressing y and t at the same time will initialize the tempo setting in accordance with the currently selected song or rhythm. Pressing bn causes the tempo value to flash on the display. While the tempo value is flashing, you can use bo (10-key) to change it. Note that you must input leading zeros, so 89 is input as 089. The tempo value will stop flashing if you do not perform any operation for a short while.

1. Press 6.

This starts the metronome.
This pattern changes with each beat.
2. Press 6 again to stop the metronome.
Changing the Beats Per Measure
You can configure the metronome to use a bell sound for the first beat of each measure of the song you are playing. You can specify 0, or a value from 2 to 6 as the number of beat per measure. When playing a built-in song, the beats per measure setting (which determines when the bell sounds) is configured automatically for the currently selected song.

Tempo value (flashes)

Changing the Metronome Sound Volume
The metronome volume setting is changed automatically with the volume level of the currently selected Auto Accompaniment or song. The metronome volume cannot be adjusted independently. For information about changing the Auto Accompaniment volume, see page E-31. For information about changing the song volume, see page E-17.
1. Hold down 6 until the beats per measure
setting screen appears on the display.
If you do not perform any operation for after the beats per measure setting screen appears, the display will return to the screen displayed before you pressed 6.
You cannot adjust the balance between the metronome and note volume during Auto Accompaniment and built-in tune play.
2. Use bo (10-key) to enter the number of beats

per measure.

The bell will not sound if you specify 0 for this setting. In this case, all beats are indicated by a click sound. This setting lets you practice with a steady beat, without worrying how many beats there are in each measure.

The following shows the available pedal effects. Sustain (SUS) Sustains notes played while the pedal is depressed. Organ and other similar tone notes are sustained even if the pedal is not pressed. Sustains notes that are playing when the pedal is depressed before the keyboard keys are released. Slightly softens notes played while the pedal is depressed. Pressing the pedal starts and stops Auto Accompaniment or song playback.

Part I
1 Product Configuration as a MIDI Device
In terms of a MIDI device, this Instrument consists of a Performance Controller Section and Sound Generator Section. Each of these sections can send and receive specific MIDI Messages in accordance with its function.
Performance Controller Section
The Performance Controller Section performs keyboard play and controller operations, and generates performance messages in accordance with auto play, etc. Basically, generated performance messages are sent to external destinations while also being transmitted to the Sound Generator Section. The channel number of the sent channel message is in accordance with Instrument's instrument part number. MIDI Output Performance Information The following describes the performance information that is output and is not output as MIDI signals. Output performance Keyboard play by the performer Auto accompaniment Demo performance Song playback Lesson function Music Challenge

Non-output performance

Sound Generator Section
The Sound Generator Section consists of a channel-independent common block and an independent instrument part specific to each channel. Mainly it receives performance information and sound source setting information.
Sound Generator Common Block
The common block consists of system effects, mixer master control, etc. A number of the parameters of these items can be controlled by universal system exclusive messages.

Instrument Part Block

The instrument parts of the sound generator can be operated or their settings can be changed with channel messages. The 32 instrument parts of this Instrument are divided between Group A and Group B, each of which has 16 instrument parts. Only Group B can be controlled by external channel messages. As shown in the following table, there is a fixed relationship between channel message receive channel numbers and instrument parts. Number Name A01 A02 A03 A04 A05 A06 A07 A08 A09 A10 A11 A12 A13 A14 A15 A16 B01 B02 B03 B04 B05 B06 B07 B08 B09 B10 B11 B12 B13 B14 B15 B16 Channel Keyboard Guide Sound Guide Voice Metronome Auto Accompaniment (Percussion) Auto Accompaniment (Drum) Auto Accompaniment (Bass) Auto Accompaniment (Chord 1) Auto Accompaniment (Chord 2) Auto Accompaniment (Chord 3) Auto Accompaniment (Chord 4) Auto Accompaniment (Chord 5) MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions MIDI/Auto Performance Functions Assigned Function

Timbre Type Specific Operation
The sound source operation performed for a received message depends on the current Timbre Type value (see "11.1 About the Timbre Type), which is the operation mode of each sound generator instrument part. For details, see the explanation for each message.
Conditions that Disable Message Send and Receive
All MIDI messages send and receive is disabled during auto play by the Instrument.

4 Receive Channel

The channel number of the channel message received by each part is shown in the table under "1.2.2 Instrument Part Block".

Send Channel

Basically, the MIDI channel of the channel message sent when the Instrument is played coincides with the MIDI channel of the part being played. Note, however, that the MIDI channel of the performance information that corresponds to the keyboard main part is the Keyboard Channel setting value.
