OWNER’S MANUAL

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 rear 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.

For information on assembling the instrument, refer to the instructions at the end of this manual.

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:

• 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.

• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an

outlet, 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.

• 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 place the instrument in an unstable position where it

might accidentally fall over.

• When transporting or moving the instrument, always use two

or more people. Attempting to lift the instrument by yourself

may damage your back, result in other injury, or cause damage

to the instrument itself.

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.

• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you

are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction

occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect

the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned

off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum

level. When you are not using the product for a long time,

make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic

components, turn off the power for all components. Before

turning the power on or off for all components, set all volume

levels to minimum.

• 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.

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

instrument. Also take care that the key cover does not pinch

your finger.

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

gaps on the key cover, panel or keyboard. This could cause

physical injury to you or others, damage to the instrument or

other property, or operational failure.

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

instrument, and do not use excessive force on the buttons,

switches or connectors.

• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones 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 stepladder or for any other purpose might result in

accident or injury.

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

prevent the possibility of accident or injury.

• If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term

use, tighten them periodically using the included tool.

Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that

is lost or destroyed.

Main Features

Real Grand Expression (RGE) Sound Engine

This lets you enjoy the playing response and expressive capability of a concert grand piano. In addition to providing

smooth tonal changes that respond to your playing touch, it also features a new Smooth Release function which can

clearly enunciate staccato notes and produce the sound of lingering resonance when gently lifting your fingers from the

keys. These effects capture the true essence of an acoustic grand piano to help you create and perform with luscious

piano-like expression.

Highly evolved touch and expression: Graded Hammer 3 (GH3) keyboard (CLP-430/

465GP) and Graded Hammer 3 (GH3) keyboard with synthetic ivory keytops (CLP-

440/S406)

The Graded Hammer keyboard features natural grand-piano type key weights (heavier in the low range and lighter in the

higher range) providing a pleasant playability that is unmatched by conventional electronic pianos.

The Graded Hammer keyboard also offers superb playability for legato (without pedal operation) and repetitive striking

techniques, as with a grand piano.

The CLP-440/S406 feature synthetic ivory keytops which simulates the moderate hygroscopic characteristics of real ivory

and offers a less slippery surface, smooth key movement, and a warm and inviting color.

NW (Natural Wood) keyboard with synthetic ivory keytops and Linear Graded

Hammer (CLP-470/S408)

In addition to the features offered by the GH3 keyboard with the synthetic ivory top model, the CLP-470/S408 uses

natural wood for the inside of the white keys (NW keyboard), and utilizes the Linear Graded Hammer feature, in which

the hammer weight of all keys is different, just as on an acoustic piano. These features provide a heavier weighted touch

that surpasses that of conventional electronic pianos and is closer in feel to a grand piano.

Audio Playing and Recording from a USB Flash Memory

Audio files (.wav) saved to a USB storage device such as a USB flash memory can be played back on the instrument.

Moreover, since you can record your performance as audio data to a USB flash memory device, it is possible to listen to

your performance on portable music players, with the data transferred by computer.

Introduction

Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano

With the full set of pedals and expressive keyboard, this instrument can be played just like a real acoustic

piano. This section shows you how to simply set up the instrument and play it. It also shows you how to use

the built-in metronome, convenient for practice purposes. We’ve also included for your piano-playing

pleasure “50 greats for the Piano,” a score book to help you master the instrument.

CAUTION

• Hold the cover with both hands when opening or closing it. Do not release it until it is fully opened or closed. Be careful to avoid catching

fingers (yours or others, especially children’s) between the cover and the unit.

• Do not place objects such as a piece of metal or paper on top of the key cover. Small objects placed on the key cover may fall inside the

unit when the cover is opened and may be nearly impossible to remove. This could cause electric shock, short circuit, fire or other

serious damage to the instrument.

NOTICE

• Disconnect the optional USB storage device connected to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal before closing the key cover. Closing the cover

with the device still connected may damage the device.

• (CLP-S408/S406) When transporting the instrument, cover the entire keyboard with the protective sheet (pages 76, 80) before closing the

key cover. The sheet will protect the keyboard from being scratched.

To open the ke y cover :

Lift the cover slightly, then push and slide it to the end completely so that

both the panel buttons and keyboard are visible. In this condition, you can

make various panel operations such as Voice selection and Song recording/

playback as well as playing the keyboard.

To close the key cover :

Slide the cover toward you and gently lower the cover over the keys.

You can open the key cover so that only the keyboard appears. This hides

the “electronic” panel controls and lets you feel as if you’re playing an actual

acoustic piano.

To open the ke y cover :

1. Hold the front edge of the key cover top with both hands, then open

the key cover slowly.

2. Close the edge of the key cover. (Fold it down so that it is flat with

the cover.)

To close the key cover :

1. If the music rest is unfolded, fold it back.

2. Unfold the edge of the key cover.

3. Hold the key cover with both hands and close it slowly.

1. Connect the power cord.

First insert the plug of the power cable into the AC connector on the Clavinova, then plug the other

end of the cable into the proper AC outlet on the wall. In some areas a plug adaptor may be provided to

match the pin configuration of the AC wall outlets in your area. For more information on connecting

the power cord, refer to the assembly instructions on page 69.

WARNING

Make sure your instrument is rated for the AC voltage supplied in the area in which it is to be used (voltage rating appears 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 AC IN. Make sure that the voltage selector is set for the voltage in your area. Connecting the unit to the wrong AC supply

can cause serious damage to the internal circuitry and may even pose a shock hazard!

Use only the AC power cord supplied with your instrument. If the supplied cord is lost or damaged and needs to be replaced,

contact your Yamaha dealer. The use of an inappropriate replacement can pose a fire and shock hazard!

The type of AC power cord provided with your instrument may be different depending on the country in which it is purchased. (In

some areas a plug adaptor may be provided to match the pin configuration of the AC wall outlets in your area.) Do NOT modify the

plug provided with your instrument. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

2. Turn the power on.

Press the [ ] power switch located on the right of the keyboard to turn the power on.

The display located in the center of the front panel and the power indicator located below the left end

of the keyboard lights up.

Power indicator

If you close the key cover without turning the power off, the power indicator remains lit, indicating that the power is still on.

When you’re ready to turn off the power, press the power switch again.

The display and the power indicator turn off.

CAUTION

Even when the instrument is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the

instrument for a long time or during electrical storms, make sure you unplug the AC power plug from the wall AC outlet.

Introduction

Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano

The Clavinova has three foot pedals: damper pedal

(right), sostenuto pedal (center), and soft pedal (left)

that produce a range of expressive effects similar to

those produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano.

Damper (Right) Pedal

When this pedal is pressed, the sound is sustained,

even when the keys are released. When this is used

with one of the Grand Piano Voices, a special

resonance effect is added, which effectively

reproduces the rich, resonant sound of the frame and

soundboard of a real acoustic piano. The depth of this

resonance effect can be set in the Function parameters

(page 51).

Half-pedal function

This instrument also has a Half-pedal function which allows you to use half-damper techniques, in which the

damper is pressed somewhere between all the way down and all the way up. In this half-damper state (on a

real piano), the damper felts only partially mute the strings. The Half-pedal function on the Clavinova lets

you delicately and expressively control the damper muting, and create subtle nuances in your performance. It

also lets you finely control the point at which pressure on the pedal affects the damper muting. (See the

Function mode parameters on page 51.)

This special pedal (only on the CLP-470/S408) has been designed to provide enhanced tactile response and,

when pressed, is much closer in feel to the pedal of an actual grand piano. It makes it easier to physically

experience the half-pedal point and more easily apply the half-pedal effect than other pedals. Since the

pressing sensation may vary depending on the situation, including the location where the instrument is

installed, you may want to adjust the half-pedal point to the desired setting (page 51).

Sostenuto (Center) Pedal

If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press

the sostenuto pedal while holding the note(s), the notes

will sustain as long as the pedal is held. Organ, string

and choir Voices will continue to sound for as long as

the sostenuto pedal is depressed. All subsequent notes

will not sustain.

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 or sustaining when it is pressed. Press the pedal immediately

before you play the target notes.

Using the pedals

When you press the damper

pedal here, the notes you play

before you release the pedal

have a longer sustain.

NOTE

The pedals are covered with vinyl

covers when shipped from the

factory. If your instrument features

the GP Responsive Damper

Pedal, remove the cover from the

damper pedal for optimum use of

the pedal effect.

NOTE

The center and left pedals can

also be assigned to song start/

pause operation ([PLAY/PAUSE]

function) in the Function mode

(page 51).

When you press the sostenuto

pedal here while holding the

note, the note will sustain as

long as you hold the pedal.

NOTE

When you select the Jazz Organ

Voice, the ROTARY SP of the

[EFFECT] section (page 25) is

automatically selected and the

Left pedal functions to switch the

rotary speed of the rotary speaker.

You can select four different types of keyboard touch sensitivity by pressing the [TOUCH] button. Select one

to match different playing styles and preferences.

HARD ........... Requires that the keys be played quite hard to produce maximum

loudness.

MEDIUM ..... Produces a fairly “standard” keyboard response.

SOFT .............Allows maximum loudness to be produced with relatively light

key pressure.

FIXED........... All notes are produced at the same volume no matter how hard the

keyboard is played. (No indicators are lit.) The fixed volume can

be changed.

Changing the volume when FIXED is selected

The volume in FIXED mode can be changed by using the

[-/NO] [+/YES] buttons while holding down the [TOUCH]
