IMPORTANT

Check your power supply

Make sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the voltage specified

on the name plate on the bottom panel. In some areas a voltage selector

may be provided on the bottom panel of the main keyboard unit near the

power cord. Make sure that the voltage selector is set for the voltage in

your area. The voltage selector is set at 240V when the unit is initially

shipped. To change the setting use a "minus" screwdriver to rotate the

selector dial so that the correct voltage appears next to the pointer on the

panel.

WICHTIG

Überprüfung der Stromversorgung

Vergewissern Sie sich vor dem Anschließen an das Stromnetz, daß die

örtliche Netzspannung den Betriebsspannungswerten auf dem Typenschild

an der Unterseite des Instruments entspricht. In bestimmten

Verkaufsgebieten ist das Instrument mit einem Spannungswähler an der

Unterseite neben der Netzkabeldurchführung ausgestattet. Falls vorhanden,

muß der Spannungswähler auf die örtliche Netzspannung eingestellt

werden. Der Spannungswähler wurde werkseitig auf 240 V voreingestellt.

Zum Verstellen drehen Sie den Spannungsregler mit einem

Schlitzschraubendreher, bis der Zeiger auf den korrekten Spannungswert

weist.

IMPORTANT

Contrôler la source d'alimentation

Vérifiez que la tension spécifiée sur le panneau inférieur correspond à la

tension du secteur. Dans certaines régions, l'instrument peut être équipé

d'un sélecteur de tension situé sur le panneau inférieur du clavier à

proximité du cordon d'alimentation.

Vérifiez que ce sélecteur est bien réglé en fonction de la tension secteur de

votre région. Le sélecteur de tension est réglé sur 240 V au départ d'usine.

Pour modifier ce réglage, utilisez un tournevis à lame plate pour tourner le

sélecteur afin de mettre l'indication correspondant à la tension de votre

région vis à vis du repère triangulaire situé sur le panneau.

IMPORTANTE

Verifique la alimentación de corriente

Asegúrese de que tensión de alimentación de CA de su área corresponde

con la tensión especificada en la placa de características del panel inferior.

En algunas zonas puede haberse incorporado un selector de tensión en el

panel inferior de la unidad del teclado principal, cerca del cable de

alimentación. Asegúrese de que el selector de tensión esté ajustado a la

tensión de su área. El selector de tensión se ajusta a 240V cuando la unidad

sale de fábrica. Para cambiar el ajuste, emplee un destornillador de cabeza

"recta" para girar el selector de modo que aparezca la tensión correcta al

lado del indicador del panel.

PRECAUTIONS

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING

* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

WARNING

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even

death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, ﬁre or other hazards. These precautions

include, but are not limited to, the following:

●

Only use the voltage speciﬁed as correct for the instrument. The

required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.

●

Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust

which may have accumulated on it.

●

Use only the supplied power cord/plug.

●

Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters

or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage

the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position

where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over it.

●

Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the inter-

nal parts or modify them in any way. The instrument contains no

user-serviceable parts. If it should appear to be malfunctioning,

discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualiﬁed

Yamaha service personnel.

●

Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in

damp or wet conditions, or place containers on it containing liq-

uids which might spill into any openings.

●

Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.

●

Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit.

A burning item may fall over and cause a ﬁre.

●

If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there

is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any

unusual smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it,

immediately turn off the power switch, disconnect the electric

plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected by qual-

iﬁed Yamaha service personnel.

CAUTION

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or

others, or damage to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited

to, the following:

●

When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an out-

let, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the

cord can damage it.

●

Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is

not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical

storms.

●

Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a

multiple-connector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality,

or possibly cause overheating in the outlet.

●

Read carefully the attached documentation explaining the

assembly process. Failure to assemble the instrument in the

proper sequence might result in damage to the instrument or

even injury.

●

Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or

extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater,

or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel dis-

ﬁguration or damage to the internal components.

●

Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo

equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise,

the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise.

●

Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it

might accidentally fall over.

●

Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.

●

Do not place the instrument against a wall (allow at least 3 cm/

one-inch from the wall), since this can cause inadequate air cir-

culation, and possibly result in the instrument overheating.

PRECAUTIONS

ENGLISH

●

Before connecting the instrument to other electronic compo-

nents, turn off the power for all components. Before turning the

power on or off for all components, set all volume levels to mini-

mum. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all components at their

minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while

playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.

●

When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry or slightly damp

cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning ﬂuids, or

Take care that the key cover does not pinch your ﬁngers, and do

not insert a ﬁnger or hand in any gaps on the key cover or

instrument.

●

Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the

gaps on the key cover, panel or keyboard. If this happens, turn

off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the

AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualiﬁed

Yamaha service personnel.

●

Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument,

since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.

●

Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instru-

ment, and do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches

or connectors.

●

Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high

or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent

hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the

ears, consult a physician.

●

Do not place the bench in an unstable position where it might

accidentally fall over.

●

Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench. Using it as a

tool or step-ladder or for any other purpose might result in acci-

dent or injury.

●

Only one person should sit on the bench at a time, in order to

prevent the possibility of accident or injury.

Then, when you start playing, adjust the [MASTER VOLUME] control to the most com-

fortable listening level.

Using the Pedals

Damper (Right) Pedal

The damper pedal functions in the same way as a

damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the

damper pedal is pressed, notes sustain longer.

Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any

sustained notes.

Procedure

TIP

To understand the characteris-

tics of various voices, listen to

demo songs for each voice

(page 15).

TERMINOLOGY

Voice:

On the YDP-123, a voice

means a “tone” or “tonal color.”

NOTE

Selecting a voice automatically

engages the best-suited reverb

type and depth (page 18) for

that particular voice.

KeyVoice Name Description

lar music.



1 E.Piano 2

The sound of an electric piano using hammer-struck metallic “tines.” Soft

tone when played lightly, and an aggressive tone when played hard.

E1 Harpsichord 1 The deﬁnitive instrument for baroque music. Since harpsichord uses

plucked strings, there is no touch response.

Sostenuto (Center) Pedal

If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and

press the sostenuto pedal while the note(s) are

held, those notes will sustain as long as you hold

the pedal (as if the damper pedal had been pressed)

but all subsequently played notes will not be sus-

tained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord,

for example, while other notes are played “stac-

cato.”

Soft (Left) Pedal

The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played while

the pedal is pressed. The soft pedal will not affect notes that are already playing when it

is pressed.

Adding Variations to the Sound – Reverb

This control enables you to select various digital reverb effects that add extra depth and expression

to the sound to create a realistic acoustic ambience.

When you select a reverb, the reverb is automatically turned on.

While holding down the [VOICE] button, press one of the C2–E2 keys to select a reverb

type.

Adjusting Reverb Depth

Adjust the reverb depth for the selected voice by pressing one of the C3–G



4 keys while

holding down the [VOICE] button. The depth range is from 0 through 20.

Combining Two Voices (Dual mode)

You can play two voices simultaneously across the entire range of the keyboard. In this way, you

can simulate a melody duet or combine two similar voices to create a thicker sound.

1. Engage Dual mode.

While holding down the [VOICE] button, press two of the C1–A1 keys at simul-

taneously (or press one key while holding another).

Refer to the voice list on page 17 for available voices.

According to the voice priority shown in the voice list (page 17), the voice

assigned to the lower keyboard will be designated as Voice 1 (the other voice will

be designated as Voice 2).

You can make the following settings only in Dual mode:

Setting the Octave

You can shift the pitch up and down in octave steps for Voice 1 and Voice 2 inde-

pendently. Depending on which voices you combine in Dual mode, the combi-

nation may sound better if one of the voices is shifted up or down an octave.

While holding down the [VOICE] button, press one of the C5–F5 keys.

Setting the Balance

You can set one voice as the main voice, and another voice as a softer, mixed voice.

While holding down the [VOICE] button, press one of the F



5–F



6 keys.

A setting of “0” produces an equal balance between the two Dual mode voices.

Settings below “0” increases the volume of Voice 2 in relation to Voice 1, and set-

tings above “0” increases the volume of Voice 1 in relation to Voice 2.

2. Exit Dual mode and return to normal play mode.

While holding down the [VOICE] button, press one of the C1–A1 keys.

Procedure

NOTE

You cannot assign the same

voice to Voice 1 and Voice 2

simultaneously in Dual mode.

TIP

Reverb in Dual Mode

The reverb type assigned to

Voice 1 will take priority over the

other. (If the reverb is set to

OFF, Voice 2 reverb type will be

in effect.) Reverb depth setting

(

Voice 1.

Transposition

The YDP-123’s Transpose function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or

down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of six semitones, and lets 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 YDP-123 will transpose it to the key of F.

While holding down the A-1 andC



0 keys, press one of the F



2–F



3 keys to set the

desired amount of transposition.

Pressing the C3 key produces normal keyboard pitch. Pressing the key to the left of C3

(=B2) transposes the pitch of the keyboard down a semitone, the next key to the left

(=B



2) transposes down a whole tone (two semitones), etc., down to the F



2 key, which

transposes down six semitones. Upward transposition is accomplished in the same way

using the keys to the right of C3, up to F



3, which transposes up six semitones.

Fine-tuning the Pitch

You can ﬁne-tune the pitch of the entire instrument. This function is useful when you play the YDP-

123 along with other instruments or CD music.

To tune up (in about 0.2Hz steps):

Hold down the A-1 and

B-1

keys simultaneously and press any key between C3 and B3.

To tune down (in about 0.2Hz steps):

Hold down the A-1 and



-1

keys simultaneously and press any key between C3 and

B3.

To restore standard pitch:

Hold down the A-1, A



-1 and B-1 simultaneously and press any key between C3 and B3.

Setting range: 427.0-453.0 Hz

Standard pitch: 440.0 Hz
