Basic Operation
Recorder
Recorder
This instrument allows songs to be recorded and played back. This instrument is equipped with an Inter-
nal Recorder to record/playback songs to/from internal memory, and a USB Recorder to record/playback
songs to/from USB memory device.
Recording format
Internal memory
• Internal format
USB memory device
• MP3 format
Bitrate: 256 kbit/s xed, Sampling frequency: 44.1 kHz, Stereo
• WAV format
Sampling frequency: 44.1 kHz, 16 bit, Stereo
Internal Recorder
• This instrument allows up to 10 songs to be recorded, stored in internal memory.
Each song consists of two separate parts.
This allows the right hand and left hand to be recorded into separate parts and played back separately for practicing one hand.
These parts can also be played back together.
• When a song is recorded to the song memory containing performance data, the existing performance data will be overwritten by
the new performance data.
• When recording into part 2 without playing back part 1 which is already recorded, set part 2 to be played back in song recorder
mode.
• The total recording capacity of this instrument is approximately 90,000 notes.
The LED indicators for the [PLAY/STOP] button and [REC] button turn o and recording stops if the memory becomes full while
recording.
Performances are recorded until immediately before the recorder stops.
Rough guide for the total recording capacity:
For example, if the total recording capacity is 5,000 notes, Beethoven’s Für Elise can be recorded three to four times, or
recording of 10 to 15 minutes is possible.
However, the recording time varies depending on the number of notes in the piece and tempo of the piece.
The recording time is also aected by the number of times the pedal is depressed because the recorder records pedal
operations, too.
• The recorded contents are not erased by turning this instrument o.
▋ Recording to a USB memory device
• This instrument is capable of recording performances directly to a USB memory device in audio format.
• The USB Recorder will also capture Bluetooth audio sound, allowing the performances played with backing music to be recorded.
Sound from the LINE IN connectors will not be captured
by the USB Recorder.
Panel operations while recording with the Internal Recorder
• The sound selected before recording, and sounds selected during recording will be stored.
• Changes to the eect settings will not be stored.
• The tempo setting will not be stored.
▋ Files that can be played back
This instrument can play back the following data:
• Songs that are recorded to store in internal memory.
• SMF les stored in a USB memory device (Format 0, Format 1)
• KSO les stored in a USB memory device (internal song format les)
• MP3 les stored in a USB memory device (Bitrate: 8~320 kbps, Sampling frequency: 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, or 32 kHz, Stereo)

17 Temperament
In addition to the most common equal temperament, this instrument can be set with early tuning sys-
tems used in the Renaissance and Baroque eras.
Temperament types
Temperament type Description
Equal Temperament
(Equal)
The most common tuning system for the modern pianos. This allows the consistent harmo-
nies regardless of modulations and transpositions.
Pure Temperament
(Pure Major/Pure Minor)
The tuning system that eliminated impurity from the most important third and fth inter-
vals. Therefore, third and fth sound pure; however, other intervals may sound impure.
Use this system by specifying the tonic of the piece to be played.
Pythagorean Temperament
(Pythagorean)
The tuning system that eliminated impurity from most of fth intervals. Although chords
sound impure due to the impurity in third intervals, the system brings out the character of
melodies.
Meantone Temperament
(Meantone)
The tuning system that incorporated slight impurity in fth intervals in order to eliminate
impurity from the most important major third intervals. This system was commonly used for
early keyboard music.
Werckmeister Temperament
(Werckmeister)
Kirnberger Temperament
(Kirnberger)
This tuning system makes keys with fewer key signatures sound closer to the Meantone
Temperament which produces chords purer, and keys with more key signatures sound clos-
er to the Pythagorean Temperament which brings out the character of melodies. This re-
ects the “character of keys” intended by the classical composers.
User Temperament
(User)
The original temperament can be set between -50 and +50 cents.
100 cents = Semi-tone

The value can be specied in the range from C to B.
The temperament does not change if the equal temperament is
specied even when the tonic is set.
19 Key Volume
The Key Volume function allows players to adjust the volume of each of the 88 keys.

Sounds get distorted in certain

For some performances, increasing the volume may cause the sound to be distorted.
If this happens, reduce the volume.
P14
The pitch or sound quality of
certain piano tones is odd.
The built-in piano tones are designed to reproduce the tones created by an acoustic
grand piano as accurately as possible. Since the pianos produce a rich variety of res-
onance, the way the sound is perceived changes depending on the location or envi-
ronment. The way the sound is perceived also changes when a single key is pressed
and when the same key is pressed in the ow of a song. For this reason, strong over-
tones may be heard in some ranges, or the pitch and sound quality may seem odd.
But this is normal.
The volume is dierent for
each key.
Adjust the volume of keys as needed in the Key Volume setting. P60
Some keys are out of tune. Adjust these keys using User Tuning. P59

The high frequency notes
sustain longer even when the
damper pedal is not pressed.
This is normal.
The highest keys on an acoustic piano (shown below) are not equipped with the
sound suppressor dampers.
This instrument replicates this behaviour precisely and allows the sound of the keys
without dampers to sustain longer even when the damper pedal is not pressed.
No damper is attached
The pedal does not work at
all, or it does not produce the
same eect each time.
Check to see if the pedal cable is properly connected to the instrument. Even when
they are connected, try unplugging the cable and inserting it again to make sure.

Connecting to Other Devices
USB drivers
For exchanging data between this digital piano and a computer via USB connection, the software (USB-MIDI driver) for the digital pi-
ano to function properly must be installed in the computer. On most modern operating systems, this driver software will be installed
automatically, and additional drivers will not be required.
The USB-MIDI driver to use is dierent depending on the computer’s operating system. For more information, please visit the Kawai
Global website:
https://www.kawai-global.com/support/manual
▋ Smart devices
This product supports connection to smart devices and allows players to use applications designed for the instrument.
Before using this feature, please check the latest information on the supported applications and operating environment, which is
available from the Kawai Global website:
https://www.kawai-global.com/support
▋ Notes on USB TO HOST
Bluetooth MIDI takes precedence if a Bluetooth MIDI device and a USB cable are connected at the same time.
When connecting the digital piano to a computer with a USB cable, insert the USB cable rst and then turn on the digital piano.
After connecting the digital piano to a computer via USB, it may take some time to establish communication between them.
If communication becomes unstable on the connection between the digital piano and the computer through a USB hub, connect
the USB cable directly to one of the computer’s USB ports.
Powering on/o the digital piano or plugging/unplugging the USB cable during any of the following situations may cause the
computer or digital piano to exhibit unstable behaviour:
- while installing the driver
- while restarting the computer
- while the MIDI application is running
- while communicating with the computer
- while the computer is in energy-saver mode
Only connect USB memory devices to the [USB to Device] port.
Connect the USB memory device directly, without using a USB extension cable.
Depending on the settings of the computer, the USB function may not work as intended. Please read the owner’s manual of the
computer and adjust the settings accordingly.

6. Attaching the headphone hook
Attach the headphone hook to the hole shown in the gure,
using the two tapping screws (4 x 14 mm) provided in the
same bag.
7. Rotating the adjustor
Make sure to rotate the adjustor on the rear side of E until the
