Hybrid Piano

Combining over one hundred years of superb piano craftsmanship with the latest advanced technolo-

gies, Yamaha is proud to introduce a true hybrid acoustic/digital piano that meets the demands of con-

temporary musicians.

Authentic Acoustic Piano Touch with Special Grand Piano Action and Piano Keyboard

This innovative keyboard delivers the rich expressive quality of an acoustic grand piano, thanks to its finely

nuanced touch and exceptional response. Drawing on over one hundred years of expertise in crafting grand

pianos, Yamaha has created a unique and yet wholly traditional piano action mechanism for the AvantGrand.

The AvantGrand offers a special action that features the same configuration as the action of an acoustic grand

piano. The movement of the hammers and the weight distribution of each hammer have been meticulously

adjusted to give this instrument an exceptionally smooth feel. The keyboard also features real-wood keys, just

as on a real grand piano, letting you enjoy an authentic touch and feel that goes far beyond any existing digital

piano.

The Realistic Ambience of Grand Piano Voice

The AvantGrand features Yamaha’s original “Spatial Acoustic Sampling” tone-generation sampling technol-

ogy for the grand piano voices. The voices are sampled from four positions around a grand piano, not only

from the left and right (as on most digital pianos), but also from the center and rear.

The instrument also utilizes the “Spatial Acoustic Speaker System,” in which each speaker is equipped with

its own dedicated amplifier. This is essential for preserving the sonic integrity of each frequency range and

making sure that the nuances of each sound are reproduced naturally with absolute clarity.

These technologies provide rich resonance and sonic power heretofore only available on an actual grand

piano.

Best Condition without Tuning

Unlike acoustic pianos, the AvantGrand does not need to be tuned. It always stays perfectly in tune even after

long-time use.

Flexible Volume Control

The AvantGrand gives you full control over the instrument volume, letting you adjust the level just as desired.

Also, you can play or listen in total privacy through one or two pairs of headphones.

1 Connecting the power cord

1-1 Set the voltage selector and insert the power cord plug to the [AC IN] connector. Refer to the “Panel Con-

trols and Terminals” on page 8 for information on the location of the [AC IN] connector.

WARNING

Make sure your instrument is rated for the AC voltage supplied in the area in which it is to be used. (The voltage rating

appears on the name plate on the bottom panel). Connecting the unit to an inappropriate AC supply can seriously

damage the internal circuitry and may even pose a shock hazard!

1-2 Insert the plug on the other end of the power cord to a standard AC outlet.

WARNING

Use only the AC power cord supplied with the instrument. If the supplied power

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!

WARNING

The type of AC power cord provided with the instrument may be different depend-

ing on the country in which the instrument was 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 the instrument. If the plug will

not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

2 Opening the fallboard

Using the hand grip on the front, lift open the fallboard.

CAUTION

Hold the fallboard with both hands when opening or closing it.

N1 Owner’s Manual • 11

Playing the Keyboard

The instrument has three foot pedals that produce a range of expressive effects similar to those produced by the

pedals on an acoustic piano.

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. The

damper pedal features a half-pedal function.

What is the half-pedal function?

This function allows the sustain length to vary depending on how far the pedal is pressed. The farther you press the

pedal, the more the sound sustains. For example, if you press the damper pedal and all notes you are playing sound a

bit murky and loud with too much sustain, you can release the pedal half way to subdue the sustain (murkiness).

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 sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a

chord, for example, while other notes are played “staccato.”

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.

Connect a pair of headphones to one of the [PHONES] jacks located on

the bottom left of the instrument. When the headphones are plugged into

either of the [PHONES] jacks, the internal speaker system is automati-

cally shut off

Two [PHONES] jacks are provided. You can connect two sets of stan-

dard stereo headphones. (If you are using only one pair of headphones,

you can plug them into either jack.)

CAUTION

Do not listen to the instrument at a high volume level through headphones for a

long period of time, or your hearing may be damaged.

Using the Pedals

Using Headphones (option)

When you press the damper pedal

Scale Tuning

You can select various scales. Equal Temperament is the most common contemporary piano tuning scale. However,

history has known numerous other scales, many of which serve as the basis for certain genres of music. You can

experience the tunings of these genres.

While holding down the [FUNCTION] button, press one of the C5–F#5 keys to

select the scale. Holding down both controls shows the current scale setting.

Default setting: Equal

The scale is restored to the default setting

when the power is turned off.

Display Key Scale Description

C5 Equal

The pitch range of each octave is divided equally into twelve

parts, with each half-step evenly spaced in pitch. This is the most

commonly used tuning in music today.

C#5 Pure Major These tunings preserve the pure mathematical intervals of each

scale, especially for triad chords (root, third, fifth). You can hear

this best in actual vocal harmonies — such as choirs and a cap-

pella singing.

D5 Pure Minor

D#5 Pythagorean

This scale was devised by the famous Greek philosopher and is

created from a series of perfect fifths, which are collapsed into a

single octave. The 3rd in this tuning are slightly unstable, but the

4th and 5th are beautiful and suitable for some leads.

E5 Mean-Tone

This scale was created as an improvement on the Pythagorean

scale, by making the major third interval more “in tune.” It was

especially popular from the 16th century to the 18th century. Han-

del, among others, used this scale.

F5 Werckmeister This composite scale combines the Werckmeister and Kirnberger

systems, which were themselves improvements on the mean-tone

and Pythagorean scales. The main feature of this scale is that

each key has its own unique character. The scale was used

extensively during the time of Bach and Beethoven, and even now

it is often used when performing period music on the harpsichord.

Data format

This instrument can play back files of SMF Format 0 and Format 1 (Standard

MIDI file).

When playing songs copied to a USB flash memory device from a computer or

other device, the songs must be stored either in the USB flash memory’s root

directory or a first-level/second level folder in the root directory. Songs stored in

these locations can be played as song data. Songs stored in third-level folders

created inside a second-level folder cannot be played by this instrument.

When copying song data from computer to USB flash memory, make sure to

save it by using SMF Format 0 and Format 1. Keep in mind that songs recorded

on other devices may use a variety of voices not available on this instrument and

hence may sound different than the original songs.

About MIDI

MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a global format standard for perfor-

mance data transmission and reception between electronic musical instruments.

Connecting musical instruments that support MIDI via MIDI cables enables you to

transfer performance and setting data between multiple musical instruments. Using

MIDI, you can also achieve more advanced performances than using just a single

musical instrument.

Connecting to a Computer

Connecting this instrument to a computer using the MIDI connectors enables you to

transfer MIDI data between the instrument and the computer. For example, perfor-

mance data of this instrument can be sent to and saved on the computer.

CAUTION

When connecting the instrument to a computer, first turn off the power to both the instrument

and the computer before connecting any cables. After making connections, turn on the power

to the computer first, then to the instrument.

Use an optional USB-MIDI interface (such as a Yamaha UX16) to connect this

instrument’s MIDI connectors to the computer’s USB port. You also need to install

the USB-MIDI driver on the computer correctly to use the interface. For more infor-

mation, refer to the user’s manual that came with the USB interface device.

You need a dedicated MIDI cable (optional)

to make a MIDI connection.

Since the transmission or reception of MIDI

data can vary depending on the type of

MIDI device, each MIDI device can transmit

or receive only data and commands that are

compatible with other connected MIDI

devices.

Please check the “MIDI Implementation

Chart” on the Data List to find out what

MIDI data and commands your devices can

transmit or receive. Refer to page 5 for the

“Data List.”

Voice demo and piano preset song data are

not transmitted via MIDI.

You must install a software application on

the computer to be able to transfer MIDI

data between this instrument and a com-

puter.

About MIDI

34 • N1 Owner’s Manual

Local Control On/Off

“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the keyboard of this instrument con-

trols its internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly

from the keyboard. This situation is “Local Control On,” since the internal tone gen-

erator is controlled locally by its own keyboard. Local control can be turned Off,

however, so that the keyboard of this instrument does not play the internal voices,

but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT connec-

tor when notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone gener-

ator responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN connector.

While holding down the [FUNCTION] button, press the C6 key. Pressing the C6

key repeatedly toggles between Local Control On and Off.

Troubleshooting

* The message list (page 35) is also provided for your reference.

Problem Possible Cause and Solution

The instrument does not turn on.

The instrument has not been plugged in properly. Securely insert the female plug into the socket

on the instrument, and the male plug into a proper AC outlet (page 9).

Noise is heard from the speakers

or headphones.

The noise may be due to interference caused by the use of a mobile phone in close proximity to

the instrument. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the instrument.

A click or pop is heard when the

power is turned on or off.

Electrical current is being applied to the instrument. This is normal.

The overall volume is low, or no

sound is heard.

• The Volume is set too low: set it to an appropriate level using the [MASTER VOLUME] control

(page 10).

• Make sure a pair of headphones is not connected to the headphones jack (page 11).

• Make sure that Local Control (page 34) is on.

The pitch and/or tone of the

Piano Voices in certain ranges do

not sound right.

The Piano Voices attempt to precisely simulate actual piano sounds. However, as a result of sam-

pling algorithms, overtones in some ranges may sound exaggerated, producing a somewhat dif-

ferent pitch or tone. This is normal, and no cause for concern.

Sound is not heard on a particu-

lar key.

Keyboard may not function normally if the key was pressed when the power was turned on. Turn

off the power and turn it again to reset the function. Do not touch any keys when turning the

power on (page 10).

Sound input to the AUX IN jacks

is interrupted.

The output volume of the external device connected to this instrument is too low. Increase the

output volume of the external device. The volume level reproduced via this instrument’s speakers

can be adjusted by using the [MASTER VOLUME] control.

The damper pedal has no effect.

• The pedal cord may not be securely connected to the [PEDAL] jack. Be sure to insert the pedal

cord all the way until the metal part of the cord plug disappears from view (page 38).

• The damper pedal was pressed when the power was turned on. This is not a malfunction; press

the pedal again to reset the function.

The USB flash memory device

has hung up (stopped).

• Disconnect the device and connect it to the instrument again.

• The USB flash memory is not compatible with the instrument. Only use the USB flash memory

device whose compatibility has been confirmed by Yamaha (page 26).

Maintenance

When the surface of the instrument loses luster, wipe the instrument evenly with a cloth moistened with some special piano cleaner.

For more information, contact the store where you purchased the instrument.

(2 wires) N1 Owner’s Manual • 3 Features Hybrid Piano Combining over one hundred years of superb piano craftsmanship with the latest advanced technologies, Yamaha is proud to introduce a true hybrid acoustic/digital piano that meets the demands of contemporary musicians. Authentic Acoustic Piano Touch with Special Grand Piano Action and Piano Keyboard This innovative keyboard delivers the rich expressive quality of an acoustic grand piano, thanks to its finely nuanced touch and exceptional response. Drawing on over one hundred years of expertise in crafting grand pianos, Yamaha has created a unique and yet wholly traditional piano action mechanism for the AvantGrand. The AvantGrand offers a special action that features the same configuration as the action of an acoustic grand piano. The movement of the hammers and the weight distribution of each hammer have been meticulously adjusted to give this instrument an exceptionally smooth feel. The keyboard also features real-wood keys, just as on a real grand piano, letting you enjoy an authentic touch and feel that goes far beyond any existing digital piano. The Realistic Ambience of Grand Piano Voice The AvantGrand features Yamaha’s original “Spatial Acoustic Sampling” tone-generation sampling technology for the grand piano voices. The voices are sampled from four positions around a grand piano, not only from the left and right (as on most digital pianos), but also from the center and rear. The instrument also utilizes the “Spatial Acoustic Speaker System,” in which each speaker is equipped with its own dedicated amplifier. This is essential for preserving the sonic integrity of each frequency range and making sure that the nuances of each sound are reproduced naturally with absolute clarity. These technologies provide rich resonance and sonic power heretofore only available on an actual grand piano. Best Condition without Tuning Unlike acoustic pianos, the AvantGrand does not need to be tuned. It always stays perfectly in tune even after long-time use. Flexible Volume Control The AvantGrand gives you full control over the instrument volume, letting you adjust the level just as desired. Also, you can play or listen in total privacy through one or two pairs of headphones. 4 • N1 Owner’s Manual Table of Contents PRECAUTIONS .....................................................6 Introduction Getting started playing your new Avant Grand!

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: Power supply/Power cord Water warning • 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. • Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument. • Use only the supplied power cord/plug. • Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have accumulated on it. • Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions, or place on it any containers (such as vases, bottles or glasses) containing liquids which might spill into any openings. If any liquid such as water seeps into the instrument, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel. • Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands. Fire warning • Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit. A burning item may fall over and cause a fire. Do not open • This instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble or modify the internal components in any way. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel. If you notice any abnormality • When one of the following problems occur, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the electric plug from the outlet. Then have the device inspected by Yamaha service personnel. • The power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged. • It emits unusual smells or smoke. • Some object has been dropped into the instrument. • There is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument. 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: Power supply/Power cord Connections • 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. Handling caution Assembly • 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. Location • 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. DMI-3 6 • N1 Owner’s Manual • 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 fallboard or instrument. Also take care that the fallboard does not pinch your finger. • Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the fallboard, 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. Using the bench (If included) • 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. • Do not attempt to adjust the bench height while sitting on the bench, since this can cause excessive force to be imposed on the adjustment mechanism, possibly resulting in damage to the mechanism or even injury. • If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten them periodically using the included tool. 1/2  Saving data 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 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. NOTICE • The song data saved to internal memory of this instrument is retained even when the power is turned off. However, the data could be lost due to malfunction or incorrect operation. Save important data to a USB storage device (page 25). • To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that you save your important data onto two USB storage device. Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed. Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use. To avoid the possibility of malfunction/ damage to the product, damage to data, or damage to other property, follow the notices below.  Handling and Maintenance • 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 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 disfiguration, damage to the internal components or unstable operation. (Verified operating temperature range: 5° – 40°C, or 41° – 104°F.) • Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard. • Bumping the surface of the instrument with metal, porcelain, or other hard objects can cause the finish to crack or peel. Use caution. • When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths. • Gently remove dust and dirt with a soft cloth.

Refer to the “Panel Controls and Terminals” on page 8 for information on the location of the [AC IN] connector. [AC IN] connector Voltage Selector For models that feature a voltage selector: Set the voltage selector to an appropriate voltage. Voltage Selector Before connecting the AC power cord, check the setting of the voltage selector which is provided in some areas. To set the selector for 110V, 127V, 220V or 240V main voltages, use a “minus” screwdriver to rotate the selector dial so that the correct voltage for your region appears next to the pointer on the panel. The voltage selector is set at 240V when the unit is initially shipped. After the proper voltage has been selected, connect the AC power cord to the AC IN and an AC wall outlet. A plug adaptor may be also provided in some areas to match the pin configuration of the AC wall outlets in your area. WARNING Make sure your instrument is rated for the AC voltage supplied in the area in which it is to be used. (The voltage rating appears on the name plate on the bottom panel). Connecting the unit to an inappropriate AC supply can seriously damage the internal circuitry and may even pose a shock hazard! 1-2 Insert the plug on the other end of the power cord to a standard AC outlet. WARNING Use only the AC power cord supplied with the instrument. If the supplied power 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! WARNING The type of AC power cord provided with the instrument may be different depending on the country in which the instrument was 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 the instrument. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. 2 (The shape of the plug differs depending on locale.) Opening the fallboard Using the hand grip on the front, lift open the fallboard. CAUTION Hold the fallboard 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 fallboard and the unit. CAUTION Do not place objects such as a piece of metal or paper on top of the fallboard. Small objects placed on the fallboard may fall inside the unit when the fallboard is opened and may be nearly impossible to remove. This could cause electric shock, short circuit, fire or other serious damage to the instrument. 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. CAUTION Be careful to avoid catching your fingers when opening the fallboard. N1 Owner’s Manual • 9 Playing the Keyboard 3 Turning the power on Press the [ ] power switch located on the right of the keyboard. This turns the power on, and the power indicator located below the left end of the keyboard lights up.  A swirl graphic appears in the display located on the left of the keyboard and the instrument starts up when the swirl in the display stops. MASTER VOLUME MIN MAX power switch lights up NOTICE Do not press any keys until the instrument has completely started up (approx. eight seconds after turning on the switch). Doing so may cause some keys to not sound normally. 4 Playing the keyboard Play the keyboard to produce sound. Adjusting the volume While playing the keyboard, adjust the volume level by using the [MASTER VOLUME] control located at the left of the panel. CAUTION Do not use this instrument at a high volume level for a long period of time, or your hearing may be damaged. 5 MASTER VOLUME The level decreases. The level increases. MIN MAX USB TO Turning the power off Press the [ ] power switch again. The power indicator turns off when the power turns off. NOTICE A small amount of electrical current remains even after the power switch is turned off. If you plan not to use the instrument for a long period of time, be sure to unplug the instrument from the AC outlet. 6 Closing the fallboard Grip the fallboard, and close it gently. CAUTION Be careful to avoid catching your fingers when closing the fallboard. 10 • N1 Owner’s Manual Playing the Keyboard Using the Pedals The instrument has three foot pedals that produce a range of expressive effects similar to those produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano. 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. The damper pedal features a half-pedal function. What is the half-pedal function? This function allows the sustain length to vary depending on how far the pedal is pressed. The farther you press the pedal, the more the sound sustains. For example, if you press the damper pedal and all notes you are playing sound a bit murky and loud with too much sustain, you can release the pedal half way to subdue the sustain (murkiness). When you press the damper pedal here, the notes you play before you release the pedal sustain longer. 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 sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes are played “staccato.” When you press the sostenuto pedal here while holding the note, the note will sustain as long as you hold the pedal. 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. Using Headphones (option) Connect a pair of headphones to one of the [PHONES] jacks located on the bottom left of the instrument. When the headphones are plugged into either of the [PHONES] jacks, the internal speaker system is automatically shut off Two [PHONES] jacks are provided. You can connect two sets of standard stereo headphones. (If you are using only one pair of headphones, you can plug them into either jack.) CAUTION Do not listen to the instrument at a high volume level through headphones for a long period of time, or your hearing may be damaged.

Equal Temperament is the most common contemporary piano tuning scale. However, history has known numerous other scales, many of which serve as the basis for certain genres of music. You can experience the tunings of these genres. While holding down the [FUNCTION] button, press one of the C5–F#5 keys to select the scale. Holding down both controls shows the current scale setting. F#5 Default setting: Equal The scale is restored to the default setting when the power is turned off. C5 Display Key Scale Description The pitch range of each octave is divided equally into twelve parts, with each half-step evenly spaced in pitch. This is the most commonly used tuning in music today. 1 C5 Equal 2 C#5 Pure Major 3 D5 Pure Minor 4 D#5 Pythagorean This scale was devised by the famous Greek philosopher and is created from a series of perfect fifths, which are collapsed into a single octave. The 3rd in this tuning are slightly unstable, but the 4th and 5th are beautiful and suitable for some leads. 5 E5 Mean-Tone This scale was created as an improvement on the Pythagorean scale, by making the major third interval more “in tune.” It was especially popular from the 16th century to the 18th century. Handel, among others, used this scale. 6 F5 Werckmeister 7 F#5 Kirnberger These tunings preserve the pure mathematical intervals of each scale, especially for triad chords (root, third, fifth). You can hear this best in actual vocal harmonies — such as choirs and a cappella singing. This composite scale combines the Werckmeister and Kirnberger systems, which were themselves improvements on the mean-tone and Pythagorean scales. The main feature of this scale is that each key has its own unique character. The scale was used extensively during the time of Bach and Beethoven, and even now it is often used when performing period music on the harpsichord. Default setting: C Setting the Base Note for each scale While holding down the [FUNCTION] button, press one of the C4–B4 keys. Holding down both controls shows the current base note setting.

About MIDI MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a global format standard for performance data transmission and reception between electronic musical instruments. Connecting musical instruments that support MIDI via MIDI cables enables you to transfer performance and setting data between multiple musical instruments. Using MIDI, you can also achieve more advanced performances than using just a single musical instrument. Transmits MIDI data. Receives MIDI data. You need a dedicated MIDI cable (optional) to make a MIDI connection. Since the transmission or reception of MIDI data can vary depending on the type of MIDI device, each MIDI device can transmit or receive only data and commands that are compatible with other connected MIDI devices. Please check the “MIDI Implementation Chart” on the Data List to find out what MIDI data and commands your devices can transmit or receive. Refer to page 5 for the “Data List.” Voice demo and piano preset song data are not transmitted via MIDI. Connecting to a Computer Connecting this instrument to a computer using the MIDI connectors enables you to transfer MIDI data between the instrument and the computer. For example, performance data of this instrument can be sent to and saved on the computer. You must install a software application on the computer to be able to transfer MIDI data between this instrument and a computer. CAUTION When connecting the instrument to a computer, first turn off the power to both the instrument and the computer before connecting any cables. After making connections, turn on the power to the computer first, then to the instrument. MIDI [OUT] MIDI [IN] USB port Instrument Computer A USB-MIDI interface (such as a Yamaha UX16) Use an optional USB-MIDI interface (such as a Yamaha UX16) to connect this instrument’s MIDI connectors to the computer’s USB port.

N1 Owner’s Manual • 33 About MIDI Local Control On/Off “Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the keyboard of this instrument controls its internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the keyboard. This situation is “Local Control On,” since the internal tone generator is controlled locally by its own keyboard. Local control can be turned Off, however, so that the keyboard of this instrument does not play the internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector when notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN connector. While holding down the [FUNCTION] button, press the C6 key. Pressing the C6 key repeatedly toggles between Local Control On and Off.

N1 Owner’s Manual • 35 Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause and Solution The instrument does not turn on. The instrument has not been plugged in properly. Securely insert the female plug into the socket on the instrument, and the male plug into a proper AC outlet (page 9). Noise is heard from the speakers or headphones. The noise may be due to interference caused by the use of a mobile phone in close proximity to the instrument. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the instrument. A click or pop is heard when the power is turned on or off. Electrical current is being applied to the instrument. This is normal. The overall volume is low, or no sound is heard. • The Volume is set too low: set it to an appropriate level using the [MASTER VOLUME] control (page 10). • Make sure a pair of headphones is not connected to the headphones jack (page 11). • Make sure that Local Control (page 34) is on. The pitch and/or tone of the Piano Voices in certain ranges do not sound right. The Piano Voices attempt to precisely simulate actual piano sounds. However, as a result of sampling algorithms, overtones in some ranges may sound exaggerated, producing a somewhat different pitch or tone. This is normal, and no cause for concern. Sound is not heard on a particular key. Keyboard may not function normally if the key was pressed when the power was turned on. Turn off the power and turn it again to reset the function. Do not touch any keys when turning the power on (page 10). Sound input to the AUX IN jacks is interrupted. The output volume of the external device connected to this instrument is too low. Increase the output volume of the external device. The volume level reproduced via this instrument’s speakers can be adjusted by using the [MASTER VOLUME] control. The damper pedal has no effect. • The pedal cord may not be securely connected to the [PEDAL] jack. Be sure to insert the pedal cord all the way until the metal part of the cord plug disappears from view (page 38). • The damper pedal was pressed when the power was turned on. This is not a malfunction; press the pedal again to reset the function. The USB flash memory device has hung up (stopped). • Disconnect the device and connect it to the instrument again. • The USB flash memory is not compatible with the instrument.
