1 AUX OUT L/L+R and R Jacks

The AUX OUT L/L+R and R jacks deliver the output of the Clavinova for connection

to an instrument amplifier, mixing console, PA system, or recording equipment. If you will

be connecting the Clavinova to a monaural sound system, use only the L/L+R jack. When

a plug is inserted into the L/L+R jack only, the left- and right-channel signals are com-

bined and delivered via the L/L+R jack so you don't lose any of the Clavinova's sound.

CAUTION

• When the Clavinova's AUX OUT jacks are connected to an external sound system, first turn

the Clavinova power on, and then the power to the external amplifier/speaker system. Reverse

this order when turning the power off.

• The AUX OUT jack signal must never be returned to the AUX IN jacks, either directly or

through external equipment.

• The AUX OUT jack signal is not controlled by the Clavinova's volume control. Use the

volume control on the external audio equipment to adjust the level.

2 AUX IN L/L+R and R Jacks

These jacks are intended for use with an external tone generator module such as the

Yamaha DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit. The stereo outputs from the external tone

generator module are connected to the AUX IN L/L+R and R jacks, allowing the sound

of the tone generator to be reproduced via the Clavinova's internal sound system and

speakers. A line-level mono source can be connected to the L/L+R jack.

CAUTION

• When the Clavinova's AUX IN jacks are connected to an external source, first turn the power

L/L+R

to the external device on, and then the power to the Clavinova. Reverse this order when

turning the power off.

• The input signal from the AUX IN jacks is controlled by the Clavinova's volume control.

Reverb function will have no affect.

• The input signal from the AUX IN jacks is delivered to the AUX OUT jacks.

3 TO HOST Connector & HOST SELECT Switch

This jack and selector switch allow direct connection to a personal computer

for sequencing and other music applications — without the need for a separate

MIDI interface. See page 15 for details.

4 MIDI IN, THRU and OUT Connectors

The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external MIDI device

(such as the DOU-10 Disk Orchestra Unit) which can be used to control the

Clavinova. The MIDI THRU connector re-transmits any data received at the MIDI

IN connector, allowing "chaining" of several MIDI instruments or other devices.

The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI data generated by the Clavinova (e.g.

note and velocity data produced by playing the Clavinova keyboard).

More details on MIDI are given in "MIDI Functions" on page 13.

5 PEDAL Jack

This terminal is for connecting the pedal cord from the pedal box (refer to the

"Keyboard Stand Assembly" on pages 26-27).

G PHONES Jacks

Two sets of standard stereo headphones can be plugged in here for private

practice or late-night playing. The internal speaker system is automatically shut off

when a pair of headphones is plugged into either of the PHONES jacks.
