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:
ENGLISH
Power supply/AC power adaptor
Water warning
• 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 (PA-5D, PA-150 or an equivalent recommended by
Yamaha) 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 place the AC adaptor 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.
• 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.
If you notice any abnormality
Do not open
• Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or
modify them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. If it
should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it
inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
• If the AC adaptor cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a
sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual smells or
smoke should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch,
disconnect the adaptor plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected
by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
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
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold
the plug itself and not the cord.
• Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during
electrical storms.
• 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.
Location
• 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 the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally
fall over.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected adaptor and other 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

Introduction
ENGLISH
Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha P-85/P-85S!
We recommend that you read this manual carefully
so that you can fully take advantage of the advanced and
convenient functions of the P-85/P-85S.
We also recommend that you keep this manual in a safe and
handy place for future reference.
Main 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 P-85 to provide
authentic touch in a lightweight instrument.
AWM Stereo Sampling
The Yamaha P-85 offers unmatched sonic realism and natural grand-piano type playability as well as Yamaha’s original
“AWM Stereo Sampling” tone-generation technology for rich, musical voices.
In particular, the Grand Piano 1 and 2 voices feature samples painstakingly recorded from a full concert grand piano,
while the Electric Piano 1 and 2 voice features multiple samples for different velocities (Dynamic Sampling); in other
words, it uses different samples depending on the strength of your playing.

Before Using
Using the Pedal
ENGLISH
[SUSTAIN] jack
This jack is for connecting the included pedal (FC5). The pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano. Connect
an optional pedal to this jack and press the pedal to sustain the sound.
An optional FC3 foot pedal or FC4 foot switch can also be connected to
this jack.
Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing this
changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, resulting in reversed
footswitch operation.
If you connect an optional pedal of FC3, the half pedal function* can be
used.
FC5
* half pedal function
While you playing the piano with SUSTAIN and if you need to delete the
cloudy sound, release the foot from pedal to half position.
[PEDAL UNIT] jack
This jack is for connecting an optional LP-5 pedal
unit. When connecting the pedal unit, make sure
to also assemble the unit on an optional keyboard
stand (L-85/L-85S).
NOTE
Make sure that power is OFF when connecting or disconnecting the pedal.
L-85/L-85S

LP-5

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.
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.
When you select the GRAND PIANO 1 voice on the P-85, pressing the
damper pedal activates the instrument’s special “Sustain Samples” to
accurately recreate the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano’s
soundboard and strings. A “half-pedal” effect lets you use the damper
pedal to create partial sustain effects, depending on how far down you
press the pedal.
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.
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.

Recording Your Performance
Recording Your Performance
The ability to record and play back what you’ve played on the P-85 keyboard can be an effective
practice aid.
The P-85’s Song Recorder allows the recording of one User song.
TERMINOLOGY
ENGLISH
Recording vs. Saving:
The format of performance data recorded on a cassette tape differs from that of data recorded on
the P-85. A cassette tape records audio signals. The P-85 “saves” information regarding note timing, voices, and a tempo value, but not audio signals. When you play back recorded songs, the
P-85 produces sound based on the saved information. Therefore, recording on the P-85 may be
more accurately called “saving information.” However, this book often uses the word “recording”
because it seems to make more sense.
Recording a performance
1. Make all the initial settings.
Before you begin to record, select the voice you want to record (or voices if you
will be using Dual mode). Make any other desired settings (reverb, tempo, etc.)
as well. You might also want to set the volume.
You can also adjust the playback volume using the [MASTER VOLUME] slider.
2. Press the [REC] button to engage Record Ready
mode.
The [REC] lamp will flash.
You can turn on the metronome in this step, and adjust the tempo by using the
TEMPO [g]/[h] buttons. (Range: 32–280)
Record Ready mode can be disengaged before recording by pressing the [REC]
button again.
3. Start recording.
When the instrument is playing
back a demo song or preset
song, Record mode cannot be
engaged.
NOTE
Recording capacity
P-85 can record up to 65KB
(approximately 11,000 notes).
NOTE
If the metronome was on when
you started recording, you’ll be
able to keep time with the metronome while recording, but the
metronome sound will not be
recorded.
NOTE
For more recording information,
see page 24.

Local Control ON/OFF
“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the P-85 keyboard 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 P-85 keyboard does not play the internal
voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT terminal when
notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator responds to MIDI
information received via the MIDI IN terminal.
