Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova
Reproducing the Natural Sensation of Sound Distance
—Binaural Sampling and Stereophonic Optimizer
This instrument features two advanced technologies that allow you to enjoy
exceptionally realistic, natural sound, even when listening on headphones.
Binaural Sampling (“CFX Grand” Voice only)
Binaural sampling is a method that uses two special microphones set at the ear
position of a performer and records the sound from a piano as it is. Listening to the
sound with this effect through headphones gives the impression of being immersed
in the sound, as if it was actually emanating from the piano. Moreover, you can
enjoy the sound naturally for a long time without ear strain. When the default voice,
“CFX Grand” (page 24) is selected, connecting the headphones automatically
enables the binaural sampling sound.
Stereophonic Optimizer (Voices in the Piano group other than
“CFX Grand”)
The Stereophonic Optimizer is an effect which reproduces natural sound distance
like the sound of binaural sampling even though you hear it on headphones. When
a Voice in the Piano group other than “CFX Grand” is selected, connecting the
headphones automatically enables the Stereophonic Optimizer.
Using the headphone hanger
You can conveniently hang the headphones on the instrument when not using
them. Install the headphone hanger by following the instruction at the end of
this manual (CLP-685: page 116, CLP-675: page 119, CLP-645/635: page 122,
CLP-695GP: page 126, CLP-665GP: page 129).
Sampling
A technology which records
the sounds of an acoustic
instrument then stores them to
the tone generator to be played
based on information received
from the keyboard.
NOTE
Voices in the Piano group are
those contained in the “Piano”
category in the Preset Voice
List (page 102). For details
about selecting Voices, refer to
page 24.
When headphones are connected, the Voices in the Piano group automatically
change to the sound of Binaural Sampling or the sound enhanced with the
Stereophonic Optimizer, by the default settings. Since these sounds are optimized for
listening with headphones, we recommend that you set this function to “OFF” in the
following situations.
• Playing the piano sound of this instrument with an external powered speaker
system, while monitoring the sound output from this instrument on connected
headphones.
• Making an audio recording (page 52) and then playing that recorded audio Song
through speakers of this instrument. (Make sure to turn off these functions before
audio recording.)
You can set this setting On or Off via the “System” menu display. Press the
[FUNCTION] button repeatedly to call up the “System” menu display: “Sound” →
“Binaural” (page 96).
NOTICE
Do not hang anything other
than the headphones on the
hanger. Otherwise, the
instrument or the hanger may
be damaged.
NOTE
Before connecting an external
powered speaker system, be
sure to read “Connections”
(page 69).
