CVP-709/CVP-705 Owner’s Manual

Welcome to the World of CVP!

This new CVP model is equipped with a convenient touch screen, enabling visual and intuitive control over virtually all

instrument functions. Simply by touching this large and easy-to-see display, you can select desired items, enable and

control various features, or edit parameter values—with greater ease and speed than ever before!

The instrument also has many advanced features that enhance your musical enjoyment and expand your creative and

performance possibilities. Let’s take a look…

This instrument features gorgeous piano Voices, created with

samples of the Yamaha CFX flagship concert grand piano and the

famous Bösendorfer* concert grand piano, as well as a special

keyboard to fully reproduce the natural touch response and

expressive nuances of an actual concert grand piano, including rapid

repetitive capability. Moreover, the instrument features a VRM

function which accurately recreates the acoustic resonance of a

grand piano, which changes subtly by the timing and strength of the

player’s touch and pedal operation. This enables expression of even

the most delicate performance nuances and responds minutely to

your pedal use and key playing.

The new Piano Room features provide even greater piano

performance enjoyment. Piano Room lets you select the desired

piano type as well as different room ambiences—enabling a

complete, realistic piano experience, as if you were playing an actual

piano. What’s more, you can play along with other virtual “session”

players, and enjoy a convincing band-like performance experience

with other musical instruments.

* Bösendorfer is a subsidiary company of Yamaha.

Naturally, the CVP provides many realistic piano Voices for your playing enjoyment. But it also features a wide variety

of authentic instruments, both acoustic and electronic, including organ, guitar, sax, and others used in many music

genres—letting you convincingly perform in any desired music style. Moreover, the special Super Articulation Voices

realistically recreate many of the performance techniques and characteristic sounds generated when an artist plays an

instrument. The result is superbly detailed expression—such as the realistic sound of finger slides on guitar, and the

expressive breath noises of saxophone and other wind instruments.

Full Backing Band Accompaniment

Even if you’re playing alone, the CVP can put an entire backing

band behind you! Simply playing chords automatically triggers

and controls the auto accompaniment backing (Style function).

Select an accompaniment Style—such as pop, jazz, Latin, and

various other music genres in the world—and let the Clavinova be

your complete backing band! You can change arrangements on the

fly, instantly selecting different rhythm variations and breaks in

real time, including Intro, Ending, and Fill-in, during your performance.
