Configuration Functions (FUNCTION mode)
F11.Damper (Number of damper-pedal levels)
Under normal settings, the length of the damper
pedal’s sustain effect varies according to how far
you displace the pedal — the harder you step
down, the longer the notes are held. You use
function F11 to set the number of discrete dis-
placement levels recognized by the Clavinova.
You may find this feature useful during record-
ing: setting the value to “2” (pedal ON/OFF only)
can reduce the amount of data generated by pedal
action, allowing you to record a longer series of
notes.

F12.CancelVol (Volume of muted piano-song track)
When playing one of the Clavinova’s 30 built-in
piano songs, you can elect to switch off either part
(left-hand or right-hand) so that you can practice
along. Under default settings, the Clavinova
continues to play back the deselected part at a low
volume to serve as a practice guide. You can use
the F12 setting to make this playback louder or
softer, or to switch it off entirely.

Subfunctions
13.1 TxCh. (MIDI transmitting channel)
Values:
1,...,16; OFF
Default:
1
Selects the channel the Clavinova uses to transmit perform-
ance-related messages to external MIDI devices. (Only devices
set to receive on this channel will respond to these messages.)
• For DUAL and SPLIT mode play...
If TxCh is set to any value other than OFF, the Clavinova
will always use Channel 2 to transmit data from Voice 2 (in
DUAL mode) or from the left zone (in SPLIT mode). If the
setting is OFF, the Clavinova will not transmit any data for
either voice.
• The Clavinova does not transmit data for demo songs, piano
songs, and recorded performances.
13.2 RxCH. (MIDI receiving channel)
Values:
ALL; 1&2; 1,...,16
Default:
ALL
Selects the channel the Clavinova uses to receive performance-
related messages from external MIDI devices. The Clavinova
will not recognize any messages received over non-selected
channels.
• If setting is ALL
The Clavinova operates as a multitimbral playback device,
responding indepently to messages over all channels. This
setting is ideal when you want to use a sequencer to drive a
multivoice arrangement.
• If setting is 1&2
The Clavinova responds to messages received over channels
1 and 2 only.
• Panel settings and keyboard play are not affected by received
MIDI data (with the exception of MIDI data for reverb type,
reverb depth, and effect type).
• The Clavinova does not receive MIDI messages when
operating in DEMO/PIANO SONG mode.
