User manual YAMAHA CP-70 ELECTRIC GRAND PARTS LIST

[. . . ] While the Owner's Manual is packaged together with the stage piano as a hardcopy booklet, this Reference Manual and the Data List are provided as pdf documents on the bundled CD-ROM. Owner's Manual (hardcopy booklet) The Owner's Manual describes how to set up your CP5 or CP50 and how to perform basic operations. Reference Manual (this pdf document) This Reference Manual describes the internal design of your CP5 or CP50 and the various parameters that can be adjusted and set. Data List (pdf document) The Data List document provides a list of all CP5 or CP50 presets (or Performances); a breakdown of the types of Modulation Effect and Power-Amplifier / Compressor* blocks available for selection; a list of the parameters that can be set for each of these blocks; and MIDI-related reference material. (*: CP5 only) Using this Reference Manual The first page of the section Internal Design of the CP5 & CP50 contains a block diagram illustrating the various components of your stage piano's sound production system, and by clicking any of the arrows within this diagram, you can conveniently jump to a description of the corresponding component. Using the tabs along the right side of each page from the Reference section, you can easily access details regarding the parts making up each Performance and the various setting areas opened by pressing buttons on the control panel. These tabs also serve as a useful means of quickly getting to grips with the internal design of your CP5 or CP50 and with how the various setting areas and control-panel buttons are related to each other. [. . . ] This parameter is used to select the root note for the part's tuning system. No setting is required in the case of certain tuning systems. Setting values: C to B This parameter is used to specify the part's playing mode. Setting values: mono (monophonic) or poly (polyphonic) mono Only one note will be sounded at any time, regardless of how many keys are played. For many instrument sounds (such as bass and synth lead), this allows a more natural and smoother sounding legato performance than "poly".

VelDpt (Velocity Sensitivity Depth) This parameter is used to define how the velocity with which the keys are played affects the MIDI velocities actually sent from the current part. As shown in the graph below, the larger the value set, the greater the degree to which MIDI velocities vary in response to changes in the playing velocity (i. e. , the steeper the slope of the graph). If a value of 0 is set, the MIDI velocities are totally unaffected by different playing velocities, resulting in a response similar to that of an organ, where playing strength has practically no effect on the sound produced. Setting values: 0 to 127 When VelOfs (below) is 64: VelDpt = 127 VelDpt = 64 127 Actual velocity output (to tone generators) VelDpt = 32 [FILE] 0 Played velocity 127 VelDpt = 0 Appendix VelOfs (Velocity Sensitivity Offset) This parameter is used to raise or lower all MIDI velocities sent from the current part. As shown in the graphs, 64 is subtracted from the value set here to determine the actual amount by which the MIDI velocities are adjusted. That said, however, if the resultant MIDI velocity is less than 1, a value of 1 is set; similarly, if the resultant MIDI velocity is greater than 127, a value of 127 is set. Setting values: 0 to 127 When VelDpt (above) is 64 and VelOfs is 32: 127 127 When VelDpt is 64 and VelOfs is 96: Actual velocity output (to tone generators) 0 64 127 Actual velocity output (to tone generators) 0 64 127 Played velocity When VelDpt is 64 and VelOfs is 64: 127 Played velocity Actual velocity output (to tone generators) 0 64 127 Played velocity 28 CP5/CP50 Reference Manual Page 5 On-screen name (and full name) PortaSw (Portamento Switch) Description This parameter is used to turn the portamento effect on or off for the current part. When Split is set to "off", meanwhile, the individual parts' NoteLimit settings (page 29) will apply. Setting values: on or off This parameter is used to set the point (or key) at which the keyboard is split between left and right parts. Setting values: C-2 to G8 Press Knob 3 to open the Zone Edit screen (page 32). Point (Split Point) ZoneEdit Appendix 31 CP5/CP50 Reference Manual Zone Edit Screen Settings are made on the Zone Edit screen when your CP5 or CP50 is to be used as a master keyboard. By setting the ZoneSw parameter to "on", you can split the keyboard into a maximum of four zones, and if these zones are then assigned to the built-in Tone Generator and external musical devices, it will be possible to play them all from the stage piano's keyboard. To access the Zone Edit screen, press Knob 3 (ZoneEdit [PUSH]) from Page 2 of the Common Settings screen.

As Page 1 affects all zones, however, this parameter's setting is displayed as "COMMON" on that page. Setting values: zone1, zone2, zone3, or zone4 This parameter is used to turn on and off splitting of the keyboard into four distinct zones. This parameter is used to select a destination for control signals from the current zone. The current zone will control the built-in Tone Generator. The current zone will control another musical device connected to the stage piano. The current zone will control both the built-in Tone Generator and another musical device connected to the stage piano. [. . . ] After setting a parameter based on these messages, therefore, it is wise to set the RPN to Null (7FH, 7FH) in order to avoid unexpected changes. Your CP5 or CP50 supports selection of the following parameters using RPN LSB and MSB messages. Expression (Control No. 11) Expression messages can be used to change the level of expression or intonation of each part. Setting a value of 127 produces maximum volume, while 0 silences the part in question. [. . . ]
