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 rear panel 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.
For information on assembling the instrument, refer to the instructions at the end of this manual.
IMPORTANT
— Vérifiez votre alimentation électrique —
Vérifiez que la tension de l’alimentation secteur correspond à celle indiqe sur la plaque du fabricant, site sur le panneau
inférieur. Les instruments destinés à certaines régions disposent d’un sélecteur de tension. Il est installé sur le panneau arrière de
l’unité principale du clavier, à côté du câble d’alimentation. Assurez-vous que ce sélecteur est réglé sur la tension utilisée dans
votre pays. À sa sortie d’usine, le sélecteur est réglé sur 240 V. Pour modifier ce réglage, utilisez un tournevis plat et faites tourner
le cadran du sélecteur jusqu’à ce que la valeur correcte apparaisse à côté de l’indicateur figurant sur le panneau.
Pour plus d’informations sur l’assemblage de l’instrument, reportez-vous aux instructions figurant à la fin de ce manuel.
IMPORTANTE
— Revise la fuente de alimentación —
Asegúrese de que la tensión de la red eléctrica local de CA coincida con la tensión especificada en la placa del panel inferior. Es
posible que, en algunas zonas, se suministre un selector de tensión en el panel posterior del teclado principal, junto al cable de
alimentación. Asegúrese de que este selector esté ajustado según la tensión de la zona. El selector viene ajustado de fábrica para
240 V. Para cambiar el ajuste, utilice un destornillador de punta normal para girar el selector hasta que la tensión correcta
aparezca al lado del puntero del panel.

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.
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.
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.
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 key cover or
instrument. Also take care that the key cover does not pinch
your finger.
Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the
gaps on the key cover, 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.
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.
For benches that can be adjusted, 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.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Main Features
Main Features
Real Grand Expression (RGE) Sound Engine
This lets you enjoy the playing response and expressive capability of a concert grand piano. In addition to providing
smooth tonal changes that respond to your playing touch, it also features a new Smooth Release function which can
clearly enunciate staccato notes and produce the sound of lingering resonance when gently lifting your fingers from the
keys. It succeeds in capturing the essence of a piano performance to create grand piano-like, richly expressive
experiences.
GP Soundboard Speakers for simulating a Grand Piano
This special speaker system, located on the rear panel, will simulate or produce the reverberation and spaciousness of the
sound as if there were the soundboard of a grand piano.
NW (Natural Wood) keyboard with synthetic ivory keytops and Linear Graded
Hammer
The CLP-480 features a keyboard that has the feel of real ivory. The key surface is soft and slightly porous, giving the keys
added grip and a natural friction that lets you play easily. The special Natural Wood keyboard uses real-wood white keys
just as an actual grand piano. Moreover, Linear Graded Hammer features the lower keys are heavy in touch and the
higher keys are light, with all the natural gradations in between. The CLP-480 provides the performance functions and
expressive power found only on grand pianos, such as having repeated plays of the same note perfectly articulated, even
when playing at high speed or with partial key release.
Tri-Amp System
The instrument has a built-in Tri-Amp System that features separate amplification for each speaker range—high, mid,
and low—providing greater clarity and accuracy from each speaker, ensuring optimum volume balance for each octave
range, and letting you enjoy richer, more natural, expansive sound.
Audio Playing and Recording from a USB Flash Memory
Audio files (.wav) saved to a USB storage device such as a USB flash memory can be played back on the instrument.
Moreover, since you can record your performance as audio data to a USB flash memory device, it is possible to listen to
your performance on portable music players, with the data transferred by computer.

Introduction
Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano
Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano
With the full set of pedals and expressive keyboard, this instrument can be played just like a real acoustic
piano. This section shows you how to simply set up the instrument and play it. It also shows you how to use
the built-in metronome, convenient for practice purposes. We’ve also included for your piano-playing
pleasure “50 greats for the Piano” (Music Book) to help you master the instrument.
1. Connect the power cable.
First insert the plug of the power cable into the AC connector on this instrument, then plug the other end of the
cable into the proper AC outlet on the wall. For an illustration of the location of the [AC IN] connector, see “Panel
Controls and Terminals” (page 11). In some areas a plug adaptor may be provided to match the pin configuration
of the AC wall outlets in your area.
2. Open the key cover.
Lift the cover slightly, then push and slide it to end
completely so that both the panel buttons and keyboard are

Turning the power on
WARNING
Make sure your instrument is rated for the AC voltage supplied in the area in which it is to be used (voltage rating appears on
the name plate on the bottom panel). In some areas, a voltage selector may be provided on the bottom panel of the main
keyboard unit near the AC IN. Make sure that the voltage selector is set for the voltage in your area. Connecting the unit to
the wrong AC supply can cause serious damage to the internal circuitry and may even pose a shock hazard!
Use only the AC power cord supplied with your instrument. If the supplied 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!
The type of AC power cord provided with your instrument may be different depending on the country in which it is
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 your instrument. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.

Introduction
Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano
This instrument is equipped with three foot pedals: damper pedal (right),
sostenuto pedal (center), and soft pedal (left).
Damper pedal (right pedal)
When you press the damper pedal, the notes you play
have a longer sustain. When you select a Grand Piano
Voice, pressing the damper pedal activates the
instrument’s special “Sustain Samples” to accurately
recreate the unique resonance of an acoustic grand
pianos soundboard and strings. You can set the depth of
the Sustain Sampling (page 71).
Sostenuto pedal (center pedal)
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the
sostenuto pedal while holding the note(s), the notes will
sustain as long as the pedal is held. All subsequent notes
will not sustain.
Soft pedal (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 wish to apply this effect, play notes after pressing the
pedal.
Keep in mind that this pedal function will be changed from the Soft pedal depending
on the selected Voice. When the Jazz Organ or Mellow Organ is selected, pressing
and releasing this pedal switches between “fast” and “slow” of the Rotary Speaker
speed (“RotarySpeed” on page 64). When the Vibraphone is selected, this pedal
switches between on and off of the Vibrato (“VibeRotorOnOff ” on page 64).
Using the pedals
When you press the damper
pedal here, the notes you
play before you release the
pedal have a longer sustain.
NOTE
For details about the Grand
Piano Voices to which the
Sustain Sampling can be
applied, refer to Preset Voice
List (detailed) on page 75.
NOTE
You can assign other functions
to each pedal by using
“RPedalFunc,” ”CPedalFunc
and ”LPedalFunc” in Voice
Setting (page 65).
NOTE
While the sostenuto (center)
pedal is held, the Voices in the
[PIPE ORGAN], [JAZZ
ORGAN], [STRINGS], [CHOIR]
and some Voices in the [XG]
may sound continuously
without decay after the notes
have been released.
NOTE
The center pedal or left pedal
can be used as equivalent to
the [PLAY/PAUSE] button on
the panel by setting the
“PedalPlay/Pause” parameter
(page 70).
NOTE
The pedals are covered with
vinyl covers when shipped
from the factory. For optimum
use of the GP Responsive
Damper Pedal, we
recommend that you remove
the cover from the damper
pedal.
Half-pedal function
This instrument also has a Half-pedal function which allows you to use half-damper
techniques, in which the damper is pressed somewhere between all the way down and
all the way up. In this half-damper state (on a real piano), the damper felts only
partially mute the strings. The Half-pedal function on the Clavinova lets you delicately
and expressively control the damper muting, and create subtle nuances in your
performance. It also lets you finely control the point at which pressure on the pedal
affects the damper muting. (Refer to “Other settings — [FUNCTION]” on page 70.)
GP Responsive Damper Pedal
The damper pedal of this instrument is the GP Responsive Damper Pedal. This special
pedal has been designed to provide enhanced tactile response and, when pressed, is
much closer in feel to the pedal of an actual grand piano. It makes it easier to
physically experience the half-pedal point and more easily apply the half-pedal effect
than other pedals. Since the pressing sensation may vary depending on the situation,
including the location where the instrument is installed, you should adjust the half-
pedal point to the desired setting (page 70).
When you press the sostenuto
pedal here while holding the
note(s), the notes will sustain
as long as you hold the pedal.

Introduction
Maintenance
Maintenance
To keep your Clavinova in optimum condition, we recommend
that you periodically follow the maintenance points below.
Instrument and Bench Maintenance
When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth.
If you are using a model with a polished finish, gently remove dust and dirt with a soft cloth. Do not
wipe too hard since small particles of dirt can scratch the instrument’s finish.
To keep the surface polished, apply commercially available piano polisher to a soft cloth and wipe the
instruments surface with it. Then, polish it with a separate cloth. Before using any piano polisher,
make sure to read the instructions for proper usage.
• Tighten the screws of the instrument and bench periodically.
NOTICE
Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
Bench Height Adjustment (for applicable benches)
The bench height can be adjusted by rotating the handle. Rotating clockwise heightens the bench.
(Before shipment, the handle is firmly fastened.)
Pedal Cleaning
As with an acoustic piano, pedals may become tarnished over years of use. When this occurs, polish the
pedal with a compound designed for piano pedals. Before using the compound, make sure to read the
instructions for proper usage.
Tuning
Unlike an acoustic piano, the instrument does not need to be tuned. It always stays perfectly in tune.
Transporting
You can transport the instrument along with other belongings. You can move the unit as it is
(assembled) or you can disassemble the unit down to the condition it was in when you first took it out of
the box. Transport the keyboard horizontally. Do not lean it up against a wall or stand it up on its side.
Do not subject the instrument to excessive vibration or shock.
When transporting the assembled instrument, make sure all screws are properly tightened and have not
been loosened by moving the instrument.
NOTE
To ensure optimum performance of the GP Soundboard Speaker function, place the instrument so that the rear side
of the instrument is 1 – 2 cm away from the wall.

2. Select a Song to be played back.
2-1 Use the A [–][+] buttons to select a drive (data location).
MIDI Songs and Audio Songs
There are two kinds of Songs that can be recorded and played back on this instrument: MIDI Songs and Audio
Songs.
A MIDI Song is comprised of your keyboard performance information and is not a recording of the actual sound
itself. The performance information refers to which keys are played, at what timing, and at what strength—just as in
a musical score. Based on the recorded performance information, the tone generator (of the Clavinova, etc.)
outputs the corresponding sound. A MIDI Song uses a small amount of data capacity in comparison to audio song,
and allows you to easily change aspects of the sound, such as Voices used, etc.
An Audio Song is a recording of the performed sound itself. This data is recorded in the same way as that used in
recording cassette tapes, or with voice recorders, etc. This data can be played with a portable music player, etc.,
allowing you to easily let other people hear your performance.
NOTE
For information on compatible

Recording your performance
Recording your performance
This instrument allows you to record your performance in the following two data formats.
MIDI data format
Recorded performances are saved as an SMF (format 0) MIDI Song. Two types of recording methods are
available: Recording without specifying the Part, and Multi Recording, which lets you record specific Parts.
You can also re-record only the specified range in case your performance was not satisfactory, or even change
the Voice or tempo. The maximum size for recording on this instrument is approx. 550KB per single MIDI
Song.
Audio data format
Recorded performances are saved as Audio Songs. Recording is done without specifying the recorded part.
Since it is saved in stereo WAV format of normal CD-quality resolution (44.1 kHz/16 bit), it can be
transmitted to and played on portable music players by using a computer. This instruments recordable time
is up to 80 minutes per single Audio recording.
If you wish to record on a USB storage device, read “Connecting a USB storage device” (page 51) then follow
the instructions below after connecting the USB storage device to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal.
For details about the difference between MIDI Songs and Audio Songs, refer to page 27.
As described above, two methods are available.
Recording without specifying the Part (MIDI/Audio data format)
..................................................................................................... page 34
With MIDI data format recording, the performance will be recorded to Part 1.
Multi Recording of specific Parts (MIDI data format) .............. page 36
This lets you record the right, left and extra parts separately. Since you can
record the left part while playing back the right, this is useful for recording both
parts of a duet. Since you can record up to sixteen parts separately, record the
performance of each instrument part one by one and create fully orchestrated
compositions.
Recording method
NOTE
(For Multi Recording)
Depending on the Song, such
as commercially available
Song data, Part assignment to
each button may be different
from the illustration shown at
left.
[EXTRA PARTS] corresponds to Parts 3 – 16.
Record Parts 3 – 16 in addition to Parts 1 and 2
when you are recording a Song which has many

If you intend to connect two or three devices at the
same time to a terminal, you should use a USB hub
device. The USB hub must be self-powered (with its
own power source) and the power must be on. Only
one USB hub can be used. If an error message appears
while using the USB hub, disconnect the hub from the
instrument, then turn on the power of the instrument
and re-connect the USB hub.
Though the instrument supports the USB 1.1
standard, 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
connected device, as well as read data from the

If you select a Song from an ensemble collection disk,
such as the “XG for Piano” disks, you can specify phrase
numbers in the score to play back from the score from the
mark point, or to play back the phrase repeatedly.
If you start playing back a Song with “Repeat On

NOTE
If you select any Song without the phrase marks, you can select
only “Off.”
You can correct the timing of notes. For example, you can
adjust recorded notes to precise eighth or sixteenth notes.
Changes are made by Song.
Notes for which you can adjust the timing:
The three Quantize settings marked with asterisks (*) are
exceptionally convenient, since they allow you to quantize two
different note values at the same time. For example, when the
straight eighth notes and eighth notes triplet are contained in the
same part, if you quantize by the straight eighth notes, all notes in
the part are quantized to straight eighth notes—completely
eliminating any triplet feel.
However, if you use the eighth note + eighth note triplet setting,
both the straight and triplet notes will be quantized correctly.
Default setting:
1/16
Setting the Quantize strength*
From this display, you can determine how strongly the
notes will be quantized. A setting of 100% produces exact
timing. If a value less than 100% is selected, notes will be
moved toward the specified quantization beats according
to the specified percentage. Applying less than 100%
quantization lets you preserve some of the “human” feel
in the recording.

TRANSPOSE = To change the key
(Changing the key: To raise or lower the overall pitch of the entire
Song.)
The Clavinovas Transpose function makes it possible to
shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in
semitone intervals to facilitate playing in difficult key
signatures, and to let you easily match the pitch of the
keyboard to the range of a singer or other instruments.
For example, if you set the transposition amount to “5,
playing key C produces pitch F. In this way, you can play
the Song as if it were in C major, and the Clavinova will
transpose it to the key of F.
NOTE
Audio song playback cannot be transposed.

PureMajor/PureMinor
Based on natural overtones, three major chords using these
scales produce a beautiful, pure sound.
Pythagorean
This scale, designed by Pythagoras, a Greek philosopher, is
based on the interval of a perfect 5th. The 3rd produces swells,
but the 4th and 5th are beautiful and suitable for some leads.
MeanTone
This scale is an improvement of the Pythagorean in that the
swell of the 3rd has been eliminated. It spread during the late
16th century through the late 18th century. Handel used this
scale.
Werckmeister/Kirnberger
These scales combine Mean Tone and Pythagorean in different
ways. With these scales, modulation changes the impression
and feel of the Songs. They were often used in the era of Bach
and Beethoven. They are also often used now to reproduce the
music of that era on harpsichords.

“Local Control On” is a state in which the Clavinova
produces the sound from its tone generator when you
play the keyboard. In “Local Control Off ” state, the
keyboard and the tone generator are cut off from each
other. This means that even if you play the keyboard, the
Clavinova will not produce the sound. Instead, the
keyboard data can be transmitted via MIDI to a
connected MIDI device, which can produce the sound.
The “Local Control Off ” setting is useful when you wish

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
When a message is displayed, refer to the “Message List” (page 78) for troubleshooting aid.
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 12).
A click or pop is heard when the power is
turned on or off.
This is normal when electrical current is being applied to the instrument.
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.
The overall volume is low, or no sound is
heard.
The Master Volume is set too low; set it to an appropriate level using the [MASTER
VOLUME] dial (page 14).
The volume level for the keyboard performance is set too low. Move the [SONG BALANCE]
slider toward “KEYBOARD” to increase the keyboard volume (page 40).
Headphones are connected when the Speaker setting is “Normal (HeadphoneSW)” (page
71). Disconnect the headphone plug.
Speaker setting is “Off.” Set the Speaker to “Normal (HeadphoneSW)” or “On” (page 71).
Local Control is “Off.” Set Local Control “On” (page 72).
“Expression” is assigned to the right pedal or the AUX pedal. Assign any function other
than “Expression” to the pedal (page 65).
The speakers do not switch off when a pair
of headphones is connected to the
[PHONES] jack.
Speaker setting is “On.” Set the speaker setting to “Normal (HeadphoneSW)” (page 71).
The tone quality and/or volume from the
speakers or headphones has changed.
The sound condition output from the internal speakers and the headphones changes
automatically to the appropriate settings depending on how the external device is
connected to the AUX OUT jacks. See chart on page 50.
Pedals do not function. 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 85).
The on/off setting of the pedal connected to
the AUX PEDAL jack is reversed.
Some types of pedals may turn on and off in opposite fashion. Use the “AuxPedalType”
parameter (page 70) in the “FUNCTION” menu to change the external pedal setting.
The keyboard volume is lower than the
Song playback volume.
The volume level for the keyboard performance is set too low. Move the [SONG BALANCE]
slider toward “KEYBOARD” to increase the keyboard volume (page 40).
The buttons do not respond. While you are using a function, some buttons not used for the function are disabled. If the
Song is playing, stop playback. Otherwise, press the [EXIT] button to return to the Voice
display. Then, perform the desired operation.
Higher or lower notes do not sound
correctly when the transpose or octave
setting is made.
This instrument can cover the range of C -2 – G8 when you set the transposition or octave.
If notes lower than C -2 are played, the sound is moved one octave higher. If notes higher
than G8 are played, the sound is moved one octave lower.
Performance in Dual or Split mode is not
recorded, or part data is lost unexpectedly.
Switching to Dual mode or Split mode in the middle of the Song is not recorded. Also, the
recording part for the Voice 2 (Dual mode) or the left-hand Voice (Split mode) is
automatically assigned (page 40). If the assigned part already has data, the data will be
overwritten and deleted when you record.
The Song title is not correct. The “CharacterCode” setting may be different than that is selected when you named the
Song. Also, if the Song was recorded on another instrument, the title might be displayed
incorrectly. Use the “CharacterCode” parameter (page 48) in the [FILE/SONG SETTING]
menu to change the setting. However, if the Song was recorded on another instrument,
changing the “CharacterCode” parameter setting may not resolve the problem.
