Playing the Keyboard
N1X Owner’s Manual •15
Since this instrument is equipped with two [PHONES] jacks,
you can connect two sets of standard stereo headphones. If
you are using only one set of headphones, insert a plug into
either jack; this automatically shuts off the speakers. You can
conveniently hang the headphones on the headphone hanger.
CAUTION
Avoid listening to the instrument at a high volume level through head-
phones for a long period of time, to prevent hearing damage.
NOTICE
Do not hang anything other than the headphones on the hanger. Other-
wise, the instrument or the hanger may be damaged.
Reproducing the Natural Sound Distance Sensation
(when using Headphones)—Binaural Sampling and Ste-
reophonic Optimizer
This instrument features two advanced technologies that allow you to enjoy exceptionally realistic, natural sound,
even though 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 17) is selected, connect-
ing the headphones automatically enables the binaural sampling sound.
Stereophonic Optimizer (Piano Voices other than “CFX Grand”)
The Stereophonic Optimizer is an effect which reproduces natural sound distance like the sound of binaural sam-
pling even though you hear it on headphones. When one of the Piano Voices other than “CFX Grand” (Display
numbers 2–5; page 17) is selected, connecting headphones enable the Stereophonic Optimizer.
Turning the Binaural Sampling and Stereophonic Optimizer functions on/off
When headphones are connected, the sound from this instrument changed to the sound of Binaural Sampling or the
sound enhanced with the Stereophonic Optimizer. Since these sounds are optimized for listening with headphones,
we recommend that you set this function to “OFF” (as described below).
While holding down [PIANO/VOICE], press the C6 key repeatedly (if necessary) to turn this function on/off. The
setting (“
On
” or “
OFF
”) appears on the display.
Default setting: On
Using Headphones
You should turn these functions off when:
• Playing the sound of this instrument with an external powered speaker system or a mixer, while monitoring the sound
output from this instrument on connected headphones.
• Making an audio recording (page 28) and then playing that recorded audio Song through speakers.
(Make sure to turn off these functions before using audio recording.)
NOTE
Before connecting an external powered speaker system, be sure to read “Using an External Stereo System for Playback—AUX OUT [R] [L/L+R] jacks” (page 36).
