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:
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 the specified adaptor (page 112) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in
damage to the instrument or overheating.
Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have
accumulated on it.
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.
Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet
conditions, or place containers on it 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.
Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit.
A burning item may fall over and cause a fire.
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:
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.
Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally
fall over.
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.
Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching the stand or rack,
use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage to the internal
components or result in the instrument falling over.
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 instrument.
Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel.
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.

Special Features
Performance assistant technology
Page 43
Play along with a song on the instrument’s keyboard and produce a perfect per-
formance every time ... even if you play wrong notes! All you have to do is play
on the keyboard—alternately on the left- and right-hand ranges of the keyboard,
for example—and you’ll sound like a pro as long as you play in time with the
music.
And if you can’t play with both hands, you can still play the melody simply by
tapping one key.
Play a Variety of Instrument Voices
Page 18
With the DGX-640, the instrument voice that sounds when you play the key-
board can be changed to violin, flute, harp, or any of an extensive range of
voices. You can change the mood of a song written for piano, for example, by
using violin to play it instead. Experience a whole new world of musical variety.
Play Along with Styles
Page 24
Want to play with full accompaniment? Try the auto-accompaniment Styles. The
accompaniment styles provide the equivalent of a full backing band covering
wide variety of styles from waltzes to 8-beat to euro-trance … and much more.
Select a style that matches the music you want to play, or experiment with new
styles to expand your musical horizons.
Easy Performance with Music Notation Display
Page 32
When you play back a song, the corresponding score will be shown on the dis-
play as the song plays. This is a great way to learn how to read music. If the song
contains lyric and chord data*, the lyrics and chords will also appear on the score
display.
* No lyrics or chords will appear on the display if the song you are using with the score display
function does not contain the appropriate lyric and chord data.
Graded Hammer Standard Keyboard
Thanks to our experience as the world’s leading manufacturer of acoustic pianos, weve developed a key-
board with action that’s virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. Just as on a traditional acoustic
piano, the keys of the lower notes have a heavier touch, while the higher ones are more responsive to
lighter playing. The keyboard’s sensitivity can even be adjusted to match your playing style. This Graded
Hammer technology also enables the DGX-640 to provide authentic touch in a lightweight instrument.
All you need is
one finger!

2 Connect the AC adaptor to the power supply jack.
3 Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.
Make all necessary connections below BEFORE turning the power on.
Connecting Headphones (PHONES/OUTPUT Jack)
Any pair of stereo headphones with a 1/4" stereo
phone plug can be plugged in here for convenient
monitoring. The speakers are automatically shut off
when a plug is inserted into this jack.
The PHONES/OUTPUT jack also functions as an
external output. You can connect the PHONES/OUT-
PUT jack to a keyboard amplifier, stereo system,
mixer, tape recorder, or other line-level audio device
to send the instrument’s output signal to that device.
Connecting a Footswitch (SUSTAIN Jack)
The sustain function lets you produce a natural sustain
as you play by pressing a footswitch. Plug the sup-
plied footswitch into this jack and use it to switch sus-
tain on and off.
• Use the specified adaptor (page 112). The use of other
adaptors may result in irreparable damage to both the
adaptor and the instrument.
• Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the
instrument, or during electrical storms.

• Avoid listening with the headphones at high volume for
long periods of time; doing so may not only result in ear
fatigue, it may be damaging to your hearing.
• To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the
external devices at the minimum setting before connecting
them. Failure to observe these cautions may result in elec-
tric shock or equipment damage. Also, be sure to set the
volumes of all devices at their minimum levels and gradu-
ally raise the volume controls while playing the instrument
to set the desired listening level.
WARNING
CAUTION
• The sustain function does not affect split voices.
• Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to
the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power.
• Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing
this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, result-
ing in reversed footswitch operation.

Connecting a Pedal Unit (PEDAL UNIT jack)
This jack is for connecting an optional LP-7A pedal
unit. When connecting the pedal unit, make sure to
also assemble the unit on the supplied keyboard stand.
Keyboard
Stand
LP-7A (optional)
• Make sure that power is OFF when connecting or disconnect-
ing the pedal.
NOTE
Pedal Unit Functions
The optional pedal unit has three foot pedals that produce a range of expres-
sive effects similar to those produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano.
The pedal unit does not affect the split voice when the keyboard is in split
mode.
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.
A “half-pedal” effect lets you use the damper pedal to create partial sus-
tain effects, depending on how far down you press the pedal.
* When using both the Footswitch and pedal unit, the last effect applied takes
priority.
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 subse-
quently 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.
When you press the damper
pedal here, the notes you play
before you release the pedal
have a longer sustain.
When you press the sostenuto
pedal here while holding the
note, the note will sustain as
long as you hold the pedal.

Connecting to a Computer (USB Terminal)
Connect the instrument’s USB terminal to the USB
terminal of a computer, and you can transfer perfor-
mance data and song files between the two (page 97).
Turning the Power On
The [ ](Standby/On) switch turns the power to the
instrument on ( ) or standby ( ).
Turn down the volume by turning the [MASTER
VOLUME] control to the left and press the
[ ](Standby/On) switch to turn on the power. Press
the [ ](Standby/On) switch again to turn the power
off.
Backup data in the flash memory is loaded to the
instrument when the power is turned on. If no backup
data exists on flash memory, all instrument settings
are restored to the initial factory defaults when the
power is turned on.
• Even when the switch is in the “STANDBY” position, elec-
tricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum
level. When you are not using the instrument for a long
time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from
the wall AC outlet.
• Never attempt to turn the power off when a “WRITING!”
message is shown in the display. Doing so can damage the
flash memory and result in a loss of data.

The Easy Way to Play Piano
This instrument includes a performance assistant technology feature that lets you play
along with a song and sound like a great pianist (even though you might be making
lots of mistakes)! In fact, you can play any notes and still sound good! You could even
just tap one key and the results would be a beautiful melody. So even if you can’t play
piano and cant read a note of music, you can have some musical fun.
Performance assistant technology offers four selectable types. Select the type that pro-
duces the best results for you.
Chord...........................No matter where or what you play, the result will be musical, well-balanced
sound. This type offers the greatest freedom, allowing you to play anything
with both your left and right hands.
Chord/Free .................If you can play simple right-hand melodies but have trouble with left-hand
chords, this is the type for you. The Chord type applies to only the left-hand
section of the keyboard, allowing you to easily play chords to support the
melody you are playing with your right hand.
Melody.........................This type lets you play the melody of the selected song by playing any keys
with just one finger. Start playing melodies right away, even if you’ve never
played a keyboard instrument before!
Chord/Melody............Play the melody of the selected song with one finger on the right-hand sec-
tion of the keyboard, and play chords on the left-hand section of the key-
board using the Chord type.
To use the performance assistant technology feature it is necessary to play a song that includes the required chord
and/or melody data. When the Chord and Chord/Free type is selected the performance assistant technology can
only be used with songs that include chord data. When the Melody type is selected the performance assistant tech-
nology will only work with songs that include melody data. When the Chord/Melody type is selected the perfor-
mance assistant technology can only be used with songs that include chord and melody data. In order to find out if
a song includes the required chord data, refer to the Song List in the separate Data List document.
Refer to page 52 for more information on using performance assistant technology to help you play.

Song or Style, for example, the currently playing Voices
may not sound as expected. This is normal, since the

Pattern Variation (Sections)
The instrument features a wide variety of style “sections” that allow you to vary the arrangement of the accompa-

INTRO section
This is used for the beginning of the Song. When the intro finishes playing, accompaniment shifts to the
main section. The length of the intro (in measures) differs depending on the selected Style.
MAIN section
This is used for playing the main part of the Song. It plays a main accompaniment pattern, and repeats
indefinitely until another section’s button is pressed. There are two variations on the basic pattern (A and
B), and the Style playback sound changes harmonically based on the chords you play with your left hand.
Fill-in section
This is automatically added before changing to section A or B.
ENDING section
This is used for the ending of the Song. When the ending is finished, the auto accompaniment stops auto-
matically. The length of the ending (in measures) differs depending on the selected Style.

Precautions when using the USB
TO DEVICE terminal
This instrument features a built-in USB TO DEVICE
terminal. When connecting a USB device to the termi-
nal, be sure to handle the USB device with care. Fol-
low the important precautions below.
Compatible USB devices
• USB storage devices (flash memory, floppy disk
drive)
The instrument does not necessarily support all com-
mercially available USB devices. Yamaha cannot
guarantee operation of USB devices that you pur-
chase. Before purchasing a USB device for use with
this instrument, please visit the following web page:
http://music.yamaha.com/download/
Connecting USB device
• When connecting a USB device to the USB TO
DEVICE terminal, make sure that the connector on
the device is appropriate and that it is connected in
the proper direction.
• Though the instrument supports the USB 1.1 stan-
dard, you can connect and use a USB 2.0 storage
device with the instrument. However, note that the
transfer speed is that of USB 1.1.
Using USB Storage Devices
By connecting the instrument to a USB storage
device, you can save data you’ve created to the con-
nected device, as well as read data from the connected
device.
The number of USB storage device
to be used
Only one USB storage devices can be connected to
the USB TO DEVICE terminal.
Formatting USB storage media
When a USB storage device is connected or media is
inserted, a message may appear prompting you to for-
mat the device/media. If so, execute the Format opera-
tion (page 92).
To protect your data (write-protect)
To prevent important data from being inadvertently
erased, apply the write-protect provided with each
storage device or media. If you are saving data to the
USB storage device, make sure to disable write-pro-
tect.
Connecting/removing USB storage
device
Before removing the media from the device, make
sure that the instrument is not accessing data (such as
in the Save and Delete operations).
• Although CD-R/RW drives can be used to read data to the
instrument, they cannot be used for saving data.
• Other USB devices such as a computer keyboard or mouse
cannot be used.
NOTE
NOTE
• Although CD-R/RW drives can be used to read data to the
instrument, they cannot be used for saving data.
• The format operation overwrites any previously existing
data. Make sure that the media you are formatting does not
contain important data.
• Avoid frequently turning the power on/off to the USB stor-
age device, or connecting/disconnecting the device too
often. Doing so may result in the operation of the instru-
ment “freezing” or hanging up. While the instrument is
accessing data (such as during Save, Delete, Load and
Format operations) or is mounting the USB storage device
(shortly after the connection), do NOT unplug the USB
connector, do NOT remove the media from the device, and
do NOT turn the power off to either device. Doing so may
corrupt the data on either or both devices.

Connecting to a Computer
This instrument can be connected to a computer to allow transfer of MIDI data or a file.
Connecting a Personal Computer
In order to be able to communicate with and use
instruments connected to your computer, the appropri-
ate driver software must be properly installed on your
computer. The USB-MIDI driver allows sequence
software and similar applications on your computer to
transmit and receive MIDI data to and from MIDI
devices via a USB cable. The USB-MIDI driver is
included on the CD-ROM. Installation of the USB-
MIDI driver is described on page 104.
Precautions when using the USB TO
HOST terminal
When connecting the computer to the USB TO HOST
terminal, make sure to observe the following points.
Failing to do so risks freezing the computer and cor-
rupting or losing the data. If the computer or the
instrument freezes, restart the application software or
the computer OS, or turn the power to the instrument
off then on again.
Use an AB type USB cable of less than about 3
meters.
Before connecting the computer to the USB TO
HOST terminal, exit from any power-saving mode
of the computer (such as suspended, sleep, standby).
Before turning on the power to the instrument, con-
nect the computer to the USB TO HOST terminal.
Execute the following before turning the power to
the instrument on/off or plugging/unplugging the
USB cable to/from the [USB TO HOST] terminal.
Quit any open application software on the com-
puter.
Make sure that data is not being transmitted
from the instrument. (Data is transmitted when-
ever you play on the keyboard or play back a
song, etc.)
While the computer is connected to the instrument,
you should wait for six seconds or more between
these operations: (1) when turning the power of the
instrument off then on again, or (2) when alternately
connecting/disconnecting the USB cable.

Troubleshooting
For the Instrument
Problem Possible Cause and Solution
When the instrument is turned on or off, a popping
sound is temporarily produced.
This is normal and indicates that the instrument is receiving electrical
power.
When using a mobile phone, noise is produced. Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the instrument may produce
interference. To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or use it further
away from the instrument.
There is no sound even when the keyboard is
played or when a song or style is being played
back.
Check that nothing is connected to the PHONES/OUTPUT jack on the
rear panel. When a set of headphones is plugged into this jack, no
sound is output.
Check the Local Control on/off. (See page 98.)
Is the FILE CONTROL display showing? The instrument’s keyboard,
etc., will not produce any sound while the FILE CONTROL display is
showing. Press the [EXIT] button to return to the MAIN display.
Playing keys in the right hand area of the keyboard
does not produce any sound.
When using the Dictionary function (page 82), the keys in the right hand
area are used only for entering the chord root and type.
The style or song does not play back when the
[START/STOP] button is pressed.
Is External Clock set to ON? Make sure External Clock is set to OFF;
refer to “External Clock” on page 98.
The style does not sound properly. Make sure that the Style Volume (page 79) is set to an appropriate level.
Is the split point set at an appropriate key for the chords you are playing?
Set the split point at an appropriate key (page 80).
Is the “ACMP” indicator showing in the display? If it is not showing press
the [ACMP ON/OFF] button so that it does show.
No rhythm accompaniment plays when the [START/
STOP] button is pressed after selecting style num-
ber 136 or a style between 148–165 (Pianist).
This is not a malfunction. Style number 136 and style numbers 148–165
(Pianist) have no rhythm parts, so no rhythm will play. The other parts
will begin playing when you play a chord in the accompaniment range of
the keyboard if style playback is turned on.
Not all of the voices seem to sound, or the sound
seems to be cut off.
The instrument is polyphonic up to a maximum of 64 notes. If the Dual
voice or Split voice is being used and a style or song is playing back at
the same time, some notes/sounds may be omitted (or “stolen”) from the
accompaniment or song.
The footswitch (for sustain) seems to produce the
opposite effect. For example, pressing the foot-
switch cuts off the sound and releasing it sustains
the sounds.
The polarity of the footswitch is reversed. Make sure that the footswitch
plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the
power.
The sound of the voice changes from note to note. This is normal. The AWM tone generation method uses multiple record-
ings (samples) of an instrument across the range of the keyboard; thus,
the actual sound of the voice may be slightly different from note to note.
There are Japanese characters in the display mes-
sages.
Make sure the Language setting in the FUNCTION display is set to Eng-
lish. (See page 71)
The appropriate display does not appear when the
[SONG], [EASY SONG ARRANGER], [STYLE], or
[VOICE] button is pressed.
Is another display showing? Try pressing the [EXIT] button to return to
the MAIN display, and then pressing one of the mentioned buttons.
The wrong notes sound when the keyboard is
played.
Perhaps the performance assistant technology is turned on.
Press the [P.A.T. ON/OFF] button to turn it off.
The ACMP indicator does not appear when the
[ACMP ON/OFF] button is pressed.
Always press the [STYLE] button first when you are going to use any
style-related function.
The “OverCurrent” message is shown in the upper
area of the MAIN display and the USB device does
not respond.
Communication with the USB device has been shut down because of
the overcurrent to the USB device. Disconnect the device from the USB
TO DEVICE terminal, then turn on the power of the instrument.

WARNING Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock, shortcircuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following: Power supply/AC power adaptor 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 the specified adaptor (page 112) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument or overheating. • 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 containers on it 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 If you notice any abnormality • 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. • 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/AC power adaptor 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. • 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. Handling caution Location • Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over. • 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. • Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching the stand or rack, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage to the internal components or result in the instrument falling over. (7)-1 4 Owner’s Manual • Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument. • Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel. • 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. 1/2 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. Even when the [ ](Standby/On) switch is in the “Standby” position, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet. NOTICE To avoid the possibility of damage to the product, data or 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 or damage to the internal components. • Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard. • When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths. • During extreme changes in temperature or humidity, condensation may occur and water may collect on the surface of the instrument. If water is left, the wooden parts may absorb the water and be damaged. Make sure to wipe any water off immediately with a soft cloth. –  Saving data • Some data items (page 64) are automatically saved as backup data in the internal memory even if you turn the power off. Saved data may be lost due to malfunction or incorrect operation. Save important data to a USB storage device/or other external device such as a computer (pages 93–94 and 101). • To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that you save your important data onto two USB storage devices/or other external device such as a computer.  About copyrights • Copying of the commercially available musical data including but not limited to MIDI data and/or audio data is strictly prohibited except for your personal use. • This product incorporates and bundles computer programs and contents in which Yamaha owns copyrights or with respect to which it has license to use others’ copyrights. Such copyrighted materials include, without limitation, all computer software, style files, MIDI files, WAVE data, musical scores and sound recordings. Any unauthorized use of such programs and contents outside of personal use is not permitted under relevant laws. Any violation of copyright has legal consequences. DON’T MAKE, DISTRIBUTE OR USE ILLEGAL COPIES.  About functions/data bundled with the instrument • Some of the preset songs have been edited for length or arrangement, and may not be exactly the same as the original. • This device is capable of using various types/formats of music data by optimizing them to the proper format music data for use with the device in advance. As a result, this device may not play them back precisely as their producers or composers originally intended.  About this manual • The illustrations and LCD screens as shown in this manual are for instructional purposes only, and may appear somewhat different from those on your instrument. • Windows is a registered trademark of Microsoft® Corporation in the United States and other countries. • The company names and product names in this manual are the trademarks or registered trademarks of their respective companies. (7)-1 2/2 Owner’s Manual 5 Logos GM System Level 1 “GM System Level 1” is an addition to the MIDI standard which ensures that any GM-compatible music data can be accurately played by any GM-compatible tone generator, regardless of manufacturer. The GM mark is affixed to all software and hardware products that support GM System Level. XGlite As its name implies, “XGlite” is a simplified version of Yamaha’s high-quality XG tone generation format. Naturally, you can play back any XG song data using an XGlite tone generator. However, keep in mind that some songs may play back differently compared to the original data, due to the reduced set of control parameters and effects. XF The Yamaha XF format enhances the SMF (Standard MIDI File) standard with greater functionality and open-ended expandability for the future. The instrument is capable of displaying lyrics when an XF file containing lyric data is played. STYLE FILE The Style File Format is Yamaha’s original style file format which uses a unique conversion system to provide high-quality automatic accompaniment based on a wide range of chord types. 6 Owner’s Manual About this Owner’s Manual and Data List This manual consists of four main sections: “Setting Up,” “Quick Guide,” “Reference,” and “Appendix.” Also, a separate “Data List” is provided.

Owner’s Manual 7 Special Features Graded Hammer Standard Keyboard Thanks to our experience as the world’s leading manufacturer of acoustic pianos, we’ve developed a keyboard with action that’s virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. Just as on a traditional acoustic piano, the keys of the lower notes have a heavier touch, while the higher ones are more responsive to lighter playing. The keyboard’s sensitivity can even be adjusted to match your playing style. This Graded Hammer technology also enables the DGX-640 to provide authentic touch in a lightweight instrument. Performance assistant technology Page 43 Play along with a song on the instrument’s keyboard and produce a perfect performance every time ... even if you play wrong notes! All you have to do is play on the keyboard—alternately on the left- and right-hand ranges of the keyboard, for example—and you’ll sound like a pro as long as you play in time with the music. And if you can’t play with both hands, you can still play the melody simply by tapping one key. Play a Variety of Instrument Voices Page 18 With the DGX-640, the instrument voice that sounds when you play the keyboard can be changed to violin, flute, harp, or any of an extensive range of voices. You can change the mood of a song written for piano, for example, by using violin to play it instead. Experience a whole new world of musical variety. Play Along with Styles Page 24 Want to play with full accompaniment? Try the auto-accompaniment Styles. The accompaniment styles provide the equivalent of a full backing band covering wide variety of styles from waltzes to 8-beat to euro-trance … and much more. Select a style that matches the music you want to play, or experiment with new styles to expand your musical horizons. Easy Performance with Music Notation Display Page 32 When you play back a song, the corresponding score will be shown on the display as the song plays. This is a great way to learn how to read music. If the song contains lyric and chord data*, the lyrics and chords will also appear on the score display. * No lyrics or chords will appear on the display if the song you are using with the score display function does not contain the appropriate lyric and chord data. 8 Owner’s Manual All you need is one finger!

These cautions are to promote safe use of the stand and to prevent injury and damage from occurring to you and others. By following these cautions carefully, your keyboard stand will provide you with safe and prolonged use. • Be careful not to confuse parts, and be sure to install all parts in the correct direction. Please assemble in accordance with the sequence given below. • Assembly should be carried out by at least two persons. • Be sure to use the correct screw size, as indicated below. Use of incorrect screws can cause damage. • Use the stand after assembly is complete. An uncompleted stand may overturn or the keyboard may drop. • Always place the stand on a flat, stable surface. Placing the stand on uneven surfaces may cause it to become unstable or overturn, the keyboard to drop, or injury. • Do not use the stand for anything other than its designed purpose. Placing other objects on the stand may result in the object dropping or the stand overturning. • Do not apply excessive force to the keyboard as it may cause the stand to overturn or the keyboard to drop. • Make sure the stand is sturdy and safe, and all screws have been tight and firm before use. If not, the stand may overturn, the keyboard may drop, or may result in injury to the user. • To disassemble, reverse the assembly sequence given below. Have a phillips-head (+) screwdriver of the appropriate size ready. 1 The parts shown in the “Assembly Parts” illustration will be used. Follow the assembly instructions and select the parts as needed. 1 Assembly Parts Back board Side boards Stand bases q Joint connectors (4 pcs.) 10 Owner’s Manual w 6 x 70 mm roundhead screws (4 pcs.) e 6 x 30 mm roundhead screws (4 pcs.) r 5 x 16 mm roundhead screws (4 pcs.)

Owner’s Manual 11 Setting Up 4 4 Put the keyboard on the stand. Setting Up Be sure to place your hands at least 10 cm from either end of the keyboard when positioning it. Check the back-to-front orientation for stand, and carefully place the keyboard on the side boards. Slowly move the keyboard so that the holes on the bottom of the keyboard are properly aligned with the holes on the angle brackets. CAUTION • Be careful not to drop the keyboard or to get your fingers caught between the keyboard and the stand parts. At least 10 cm • Do not hold the keyboard in any position other than the position shown in the illustration. At least 10 cm 5 Install the keyboard to the stand. 5 Fix the keyboard to the angle brackets, using the screws r. Post-assembly checklist r 5 x 16 mm roundhead screws 12 Owner’s Manual Once you’ve assembled the stand, check the following points: • Are there any parts left over?  If so, read the assembly instructions again and correct any errors you might have made. • Is the instrument clear of doors and other movable fixtures?  If not, move the instrument to an appropriate location. • Does the instrument make a rattling noise when you play it or move it?  If so, properly tighten all screws. • Also, if the keyboard makes a creaking noise or seems unsteady when you play it, refer carefully to the assembly instructions and diagrams and retighten all screws. Setting Up Be sure to do the following operations BEFORE turning on the power. Setting Up Power Requirements 1 Make sure that the [ ](Standby/On) switch of the instrument is in the “Standby” position. WARNING • Use the specified adaptor (page 112). The use of other adaptors may result in irreparable damage to both the adaptor and the instrument. 2 2 Connect the AC adaptor to the power supply jack. 3 Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet. CAUTION • Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the instrument, or during electrical storms. AC power adaptor 3 AC outlet Make all necessary connections below BEFORE turning the power on. Connecting Headphones (PHONES/OUTPUT Jack) mixer, tape recorder, or other line-level audio device to send the instrument’s output signal to that device. WARNING • Avoid listening with the headphones at high volume for long periods of time; doing so may not only result in ear fatigue, it may be damaging to your hearing. Any pair of stereo headphones with a 1/4" stereo phone plug can be plugged in here for convenient monitoring. The speakers are automatically shut off when a plug is inserted into this jack. The PHONES/OUTPUT jack also functions as an external output. You can connect the PHONES/OUTPUT jack to a keyboard amplifier, stereo system, CAUTION • To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the external devices at the minimum setting before connecting them. Failure to observe these cautions may result in electric shock or equipment damage. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all devices at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level. Connecting a Footswitch (SUSTAIN Jack) NOTE • The sustain function does not affect split voices. • Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power. • Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, resulting in reversed footswitch operation. The sustain function lets you produce a natural sustain as you play by pressing a footswitch. Plug the supplied footswitch into this jack and use it to switch sustain on and off. Owner’s Manual 13 Setting Up Connecting a Pedal Unit (PEDAL UNIT jack) Setting Up This jack is for connecting an optional LP-7A pedal unit. When connecting the pedal unit, make sure to also assemble the unit on the supplied keyboard stand. NOTE • Make sure that power is OFF when connecting or disconnecting the pedal. LP-7A (optional) Keyboard Stand Pedal Unit Functions The optional pedal unit has three foot pedals that produce a range of expressive effects similar to those produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano. The pedal unit does not affect the split voice when the keyboard is in split mode. 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. A “half-pedal” effect lets you use the damper pedal to create partial sustain effects, depending on how far down you press the pedal. * When using both the Footswitch and pedal unit, the last effect applied takes priority. When you press the damper pedal here, the notes you play before you release the pedal have a longer sustain. 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. 14 Owner’s Manual When you press the sostenuto pedal here while holding the note, the note will sustain as long as you hold the pedal. Setting Up Connecting to a Computer (USB Terminal) Setting Up Connect the instrument’s USB terminal to the USB terminal of a computer, and you can transfer performance data and song files between the two (page 97). Turning the Power On The [ ](Standby/On) switch turns the power to the instrument on ( ) or standby ( ). Turn down the volume by turning the [MASTER VOLUME] control to the left and press the [ ](Standby/On) switch to turn on the power. Press the [ ](Standby/On) switch again to turn the power off. Backup data in the flash memory is loaded to the instrument when the power is turned on. If no backup data exists on flash memory, all instrument settings are restored to the initial factory defaults when the power is turned on. CAUTION • Even when the switch is in the “STANDBY” position, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet. NOTICE • Never attempt to turn the power off when a “WRITING!” message is shown in the display. Doing so can damage the flash memory and result in a loss of data.

Troubleshooting Appendix For the Instrument Problem Possible Cause and Solution When the instrument is turned on or off, a popping sound is temporarily produced. This is normal and indicates that the instrument is receiving electrical power. When using a mobile phone, noise is produced. Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the instrument may produce interference. To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or use it further away from the instrument. There is no sound even when the keyboard is played or when a song or style is being played back. Check that nothing is connected to the PHONES/OUTPUT jack on the rear panel. When a set of headphones is plugged into this jack, no sound is output. Check the Local Control on/off. (See page 98.) Is the FILE CONTROL display showing? The instrument’s keyboard, etc., will not produce any sound while the FILE CONTROL display is showing. Press the [EXIT] button to return to the MAIN display. Playing keys in the right hand area of the keyboard does not produce any sound. When using the Dictionary function (page 82), the keys in the right hand area are used only for entering the chord root and type. The style or song does not play back when the [START/STOP] button is pressed. Is External Clock set to ON? Make sure External Clock is set to OFF; refer to “External Clock” on page 98. The style does not sound properly. Make sure that the Style Volume (page 79) is set to an appropriate level. No rhythm accompaniment plays when the [START/ STOP] button is pressed after selecting style number 136 or a style between 148–165 (Pianist). This is not a malfunction. Style number 136 and style numbers 148–165 (Pianist) have no rhythm parts, so no rhythm will play. The other parts will begin playing when you play a chord in the accompaniment range of the keyboard if style playback is turned on. Not all of the voices seem to sound, or the sound seems to be cut off. The instrument is polyphonic up to a maximum of 64 notes. If the Dual voice or Split voice is being used and a style or song is playing back at the same time, some notes/sounds may be omitted (or “stolen”) from the accompaniment or song. The footswitch (for sustain) seems to produce the opposite effect. For example, pressing the footswitch cuts off the sound and releasing it sustains the sounds. The polarity of the footswitch is reversed. Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power. The sound of the voice changes from note to note. This is normal. The AWM tone generation method uses multiple recordings (samples) of an instrument across the range of the keyboard; thus, the actual sound of the voice may be slightly different from note to note. There are Japanese characters in the display messages. Make sure the Language setting in the FUNCTION display is set to English. (See page 71) The appropriate display does not appear when the [SONG], [EASY SONG ARRANGER], [STYLE], or [VOICE] button is pressed. Is another display showing? Try pressing the [EXIT] button to return to the MAIN display, and then pressing one of the mentioned buttons. The wrong notes sound when the keyboard is played. Perhaps the performance assistant technology is turned on. Press the [P.A.T. ON/OFF] button to turn it off. The ACMP indicator does not appear when the [ACMP ON/OFF] button is pressed. Always press the [STYLE] button first when you are going to use any style-related function. The “OverCurrent” message is shown in the upper area of the MAIN display and the USB device does not respond. Communication with the USB device has been shut down because of the overcurrent to the USB device. Disconnect the device from the USB TO DEVICE terminal, then turn on the power of the instrument. Owner’s Manual Appendix Is the split point set at an appropriate key for the chords you are playing? Set the split point at an appropriate key (page 80). Is the “ACMP” indicator showing in the display? If it is not showing press the [ACMP ON/OFF] button so that it does show. 109 Messages LCD Message Appendix 110 Comment Access error!
