1. Avoid Humidity & Heat
Avoid placing the Clavinova in areas that are subject to exces-
sive humidity or heat. Do not leave the instrument near heaters
or in a car exposed to direct sunlight, for example.
2. Avoid Dust & Moisture
Avoid locations in which the instrument is likely to be exposed
to excessive dust or moisture.
3. Power-off Before Connecting
Connections between the Clavinova and any other device must
be made with both pieces of equipment turned off.
4. Handle With Care
Never apply excessive force to the controls, connectors or
other parts of your Clavinova, and avoid scratching or bumping
it with hard objects. Further, always turn the POWER switch off
after use, and close the key cover to protect the keyboard.
5. Clean Carefully
Clean the cabinet and keys of your Clavinova only with a clean,
slightly damp cloth. A neutral cleanser may be used if desired.
Never use abrasive cleansers, waxes, solvents or chemical
dust cloths since these can dull or damage the finish.
6. Never Tamper With the Internal Circuitry
Never open the Clavinova cabinet and touch or tamper with the
internal circuitry. Tampering with the circuitry can result in elec-
trical shock!
7. Electric Interference
Since the Clavinova contains digital circuitry, it may cause
interference if placed too close to radio or television receivers.
If this occurs, move the instrument further away from the af-
fected equipment.
8. Name Plate Location
The Clavinova name plate, including the unit’s serial number, is
located on the bottom panel of the main unit.
9. Handling Floppy Disks
Yamaha Disk Orchestra Collection and Style Disk are write-
protected, and therefore cannot be used to save songs. To save
Performance Memory songs from the Performance Memory, a
blank floppy disk should be used (one blank disk is supplied
with the Clavinova).
Taking Care of Your Floppy Disks
■ Do NOT eject the disk during recording or playback, or at
any time when the disk drive lamp is lit. Doing so may dam-
age both the disk and the FDD.
■ Do NOT turn the Clavinova on or off while the disk is in the
drive.
■ Always eject the disk before turning the Clavinova off.
■ When ejecting a floppy disk from the disk drive:
Your Clavinova will give you years of playing pleasure if you observe the simple rules given below:
nism and/or the floppy disk. To remove a partially ejected
disk, try pressing the eject button once again or push the
disk back into the slot, then repeat the eject procedure
carefully.
■ Never open or close the key cover while a disk is
extending from the drive (i.e. in the ejected position).
The key cover may contact the disk, possibly damag-
ing the disk or even the disk drive.
■ Do not insert anything but floppy disks into the disk
drive. Other objects may cause damage to the disk
drive or floppy disk.
■ Use only double-sided double density (2DD) 3.5-inch
floppy disks with the Clavinova.
Taking Care of Your Clavinova
• To eject a floppy disk, press the eject button slowly as far as it will go.
Then when the disk Is fully ejected, remove it by hand.
• The disk may not be ejected properly if the eject button is pressed too
quickly or if it is not pressed in far enough. (The eject button may
become stuck halfway with the disk extending from the slot by only a
few millimeters). If this is the case, do not attempt to pull out the
partially ejected disk. Doing so may damage the disk drive mecha-

Precautions Regarding Floppy Disk Use
■ Never open the disk’s shutter. Dirt or dust on the
Internal magnetic surface will cause data errors.
■ Never leave disks near a speaker, TV, or other de-
vice that emits a strong magnetic field.
■ Do not store disks in places exposed to direct sun-
light or sources of high temperature.
■ Do not place heavy objects such as books on top of
a disk.
■ Avoid getting the disks wet.
■ Be sure to store the disks in environmental condi-
tions as specified below:
• Storage temperature: 4
°
to 53
°
C (39
°
to 127
°
F).
• Storage humidity: 8 to 90% relative humidity.
• Store in an area free from dust, sand, smoke, etc.
■ Be sure to apply the disk label at the proper position.
When changing the label never cover the old label
with a new label; always remove the old label first.
Head Cleaning
The head of the disk drive unit will get dirty as you use
it eventually causing data errors. If this occurs, clean
the head with a 3.5 inch head cleaning disk (available
from most computer supply stores).
Data Backup
It is recommended that you copy your recorded songs
to another disk for backup (see page 46). If the original
disk is damaged or your song is deleted, the backup
disk can be used instead of the original.

Preparation
■The Music Stand
If you will be using sheet music with your Clavinova, raise the music stand
built into it’s top panel by lifting the rear edge of the music stand.
The music stand can be lowered by slightly lifting the stand and then lowering
it gently back down to its resting position.
■The Power Switch
After making sure that the Clavinova’s AC plug is properly inserted into a con-
venient AC wall outlet, press the [POWER] switch located to the left of the key-
board once to turn the power on. The power indicator located below the left end of
the keyaboard will light. Press the [POWER] switch again to turn the power off.
When the power is initially turned on, the PIANO voice selector LED will
light, the POP style selector LED will light, and the display will appear as shown
to the left.
■Headphones
One or two standard pairs of stereo headphones can be plugged in here for pri-
vate practice or late-night playing. The internal speaker system is automatically
shut off when a pair of headphones is plugged into either or both of the PHONES
jacks.
■The Key Cover
To open the CVP-89 key cover lift it just enough to clear the keys (do not lift
excessively) then slide the cover back into the main unit. To close the cover slide it
forward all the way and then lower it gently until it closes completely.

The Clavinova has several volume controls that
give you extra versatility in creating the required
sound.
The Volume Controls
● Master Volume ........................................................................................................................................
The MASTER VOLUME control adjusts the overall volume of sound
produced by the Clavinova. It also adjusts headphone volume when one or two
pairs of headphones are plugged into the PHONES jacks.
Initially set the MASTER VOLUME control about half way between the
“MIN” and “MAX” settings. Then, when you start playing, adjust the control for
the most comfortable listening level.

● Auto Accompaniment ............................................................................................................................
Separate volume controls are provided for the RHYTHM, CHORD 1,
CHORD 2, and BASS sound. These volume controls let you set up the best
balance between the various accompaniment parts when the AUTO BASS
CHORD (ABC), Disk Orchestra Collection playback, and Performance Memory
features are used, and the RHYTHM volume control can be used to balance the
keyboard and rhythm sound when only rhythm accompaniment is used.
The volume of the keyboard can be independently adjusted (1 … 127) by using
the BASS control while holding the [UTILITY] button — this is particularly
handy for adjusting the balance when recording the Clavinova sound.
● Other Volume Control Modes
The Auto Accompaniment volume controls can be assigned to other functions
via the “Accompaniment Volume Mode” utility function (page 61). They can be
used to control modulation, pitch bend, and expression; or individual reverb
depth for the rhythm, chord 1, chord 2, and bass parts.
NOTES
• If any or all of the Auto Accompaniment volume controls are set to their minimum
positions, no sound will be produced by the corresponding parts. The maximum
control positions produce the normal volume levels.
● Expression Control ................................................................................................................................
An optional Yamaha EP-1 Expression Pedal can be plugged into the EXP
PEDAL jack for foot volume (expression) control of the keyboard sound only (i.e.
expression doesn’t affect the auto-accompaniment sound or disk playback). Press
the pedal forward to increase volume, and backward to decrease volume.

The CVP-89 features a powerful “3D System” amplifier featuring a single 50-watt channel
and stereo 25-watt channels. This high-performance amplifier and speaker system puts out
exceptionally rich sound with natural response from powerful lows to shimmering highs. The
CVP-89 speaker system employs a single 18-cm speaker for center-channel low-frequency
reproduction, and three speakers each per stereo channel: 13-centimeter speaker units for
midrange sound, 2.5-cm units for outstanding high-frequency sound, and 8-cm units for
player monitoring.

Voice Selection
The CVP-89 has a total of 60 different voices that can be selected in a number
of ways. There’s also a “Keyboard Percussion” mode that let’s you play a range of
drums and percussion instruments on the keyboard.
● The VOICE 13-60 [▲] and [▼] Buttons..................................................................................................
Use the VOICE [▲] and [▼] buttons immediately to the right of the [VOICE
13-60] button to select a voice number between 13 and 60. Press either button
briefly to select the next voice number in the specified direction, or hold the button
for continuous scrolling in the specified direction. The [VOICE 13-60] indicator
will light and the voice number and name will appear on the display.
If a panel voice (1-12) is selected, the last selected voice in the 13-60 range can
be instantly re-selected simply by pressing the [VOICE 13-60] button. The
[VOICE 13-60] button will initially select voice number 13 (BRASS) after the
power is turned on.
NOTES
• Voice number 13 can be instantly selected by pressing the VOICE [
▲
] and [
▼

buttons simultaneously.

When the [DRUMS] voice selector is pressed (its indicator will light), you can
play 44 different drum and percussion instruments on the keyboard. The symbols
above the keys correspond to the NORMAL drum kit instruments (keys with no
symbols produce no sound).
NOTES
• The CVP-89 has two drum kits — “NORMAL” and “PROCESSED”. Which of
these kits will sound when Keyboard Percussion is engaged depends on the
currently selected accompaniment style. Some styles which use the “NORMAL”
kit, however, include instruments from the “PROCESSED” kit, and vice-versa.
• The accompaniment styles listed below use the “PROCESSED” drum kit while all
others use the “NORMAL” kit.

via the UTILITY mode — page 63.

Dual Mode
The DUAL mode makes it possible to play two voices simultaneously across the entire range
of the keyboard. This makes it easy to create exceptionally rich, thick tonal textures.
■Engaging the Dual Mode
Dual mode voice combinations can be broadly divided into three categories: panel voice + panel voice, panel voice +
voice number 13-60, and two voices in the 13-60 range. The dual mode for each combination is selected in a different way,
as described below:

● Panel Voice + Panel Voice .....................................................................................................................
To combine two panel voices simply press two voice selectors at the same time
— or press one voice selector while holding another. The names of both selected
voices will appear on the display when the DUAL mode is active. To return to the
normal single-voice play mode, press any single voice selector.
● Panel Voice + 13-60 Voice .....................................................................................................................
A voice in the 13…60 range can be “dualed” with the panel voices by pressing
the [VOICE 13-60] button and any other voice selector at the same time. The
VOICE [▲] and [▼] buttons can then be used to select the desired 13…60 voice.
The names of both selected voices will appear on the display (the 13-60 voice name
will appear on right side of the display). To return to the normal single-voice play
mode, press any single voice selector.
● Two 13-60 Voices....................................................................................................................................
To combine two voices in the 13-60 range press the [DRUMS] button and the
[VOICE 13-60] button at the same time (the default combination is POP BRASS
and BRASS). The voice shown on the right of the display can then be selected by
using the VOICE [▲] and [▼] button, while the left voice can be selected by using
the VOICE [▲] and [▼] buttons while holding the [DRUMS] and [VOICE 13-60]
buttons. To return to the normal single-voice play mode, press any single voice
selector.
■Dual-mode Voice Balance
The volume balance between the two voices combined in the DUAL mode can
be adjusted by using the TEMPO [▲] and [▼] buttons while pressing both of the
active voice selectors. The selected balance value (1 … 15) will be shown on the
display until the voice selectors are released.
■ A setting of “1” sets the volume of the left voice on the display to maximum
and the right voice to minimum (no sound).
■ A setting of “8” sets both voices to the same volume (this is the default balance
setting, and can be recalled by pressing the TEMPO [▲] and [▼] buttons si-
multaneously).
■ A setting of “15” sets the volume of the right voice on the display to maximum
and the left voice to minimum (no sound).
NOTES
• Hold either the TEMPO [
s
] or [
t
] button for continuous scrolling in the specified
direction.
• The dual mode cannot be used with the DRUMS voice. Also, the dual and split
modes cannot be used at the same time.

The split mode lets you play different voices with
the left and right hands — bass with the left and pi-
ano with the right, for example. You can assign any
of the Clavinova’s voices to the left and right-hand
sections of the keyboard.
Split Mode
■Engaging the Split Mode
When the [SPLIT] button is pressed and its indicator lights, the keyboard is
split into left- and right-hand sections and different voices can be assigned to each.
The split point is initially set at the F#2 key when the power is turned on, and the
UPRIGHT BASS voice is initially assigned to the left-hand section of the keyboard
(all keys up to and including F#2). The voice that was selected when the SPLIT
mode was engaged is assigned to the right-hand section of the keyboard. The cur-
rent settings are retained if the SPLIT mode is turned off (press the [SPLIT] button
again) and on while the power remains on. The names of both the left and right-
hand voices appear on the display while the SPLIT mode is active.

Digital Reverb Effects
The [REVERB] button provides a number of
digital effects that you can use for extra depth
and expressive power.
■Selecting a Reverb Effect
Each time the [TAP] or [METRONOME] button is pressed while the
[REVERB] button is held, the next reverb effect is selected. The currently selected
reverb effect and the reverb depth setting appear on the display while the
[REVERB] button is held. The reverb effect can also be selected by repeatedly
pressing the [REVERB] button while the reverb type remains on the display.
OFF
No effect is produced.
ROOM
This setting adds a reverb effect to the sound that is similar to the type of acous-
tic reverberation you would hear in a medium-size room.
HALL 1
For a more spacious reverb sound, use the HALL 1 setting. This effect simulates
the natural reverberation of a medium-size concert hall.
HALL 2
HALL 2 simulates the reverb of a very large concert hall.
COSMIC
“COSMIC” is an echo effect in which the sound seems to “bounce” around in
the stereo sound field.
NOTES
• The ROOM effect is automatically selected when the POWER switch is turned
on.

The Keyboard & Polyphony
The Clavinova has “32-note polyphony” which means you can normally play up to 32 notes at once.
This number varies, however, according to the functions being used, as shown in the chart below:
Keyboard only 32 notes.
Keyboard + rhythm 24 notes (rhythm uses 8).
Keyboard + ABC 12 notes (rhythm 8; ABC 12).
The following voices are STEREO:
• No.1 PIANO
• No.8 ORGAN
• No.28 FULL ORGAN
• No.34 PIANO BRIGHT
• No.35 PIANO SOFT
The following voices feature VELOCITY SWITCHING
(i.e. they sound different when played soft or loud).
• No.3 E.PIANO
• No.11 ELEC BASS
● The number of available notes is further reduced if the dual
mode, the performance memory, or a Disk Orchestra Collec-
tion disk is being played at the same time.
The Clavinova also offers keyboard touch response, so the
volume and timbre of notes played can be controlled accord-
ing to how “hard” you play the keys. The amount of variation
available depends on the selected voice.
NOTES
• Some voices have greater polyphony than shown in the above chart.
Further, some dual-mode and split-mode voice combinations provide 64-
note total polyphony (32 notes per voice).
Pan
● The pan (stereo) position of the voice played on the key-
board can be adjusted by moving the RHYTHM volume
control while holding the [UTILITY] button. The pan
position is shown on the display, from “LEFT 6” for full
left at the “MIN” control position, through “CENTER” for
center, to “RIGHT 6” for full right at the “MAX” control
position. This can be used to produce a broader ensemble
sound with the Performance Memory multitrack recording
feature.
Each voice has a preset pan setting (indicated by “KEY-
BOARD” on the display) which is automatically set when
the power is first turned on.
The pan settings are as follows:
NOTES
• The “KEYBOARD” default keyboard scale pan places the treble-regis-
ter sound to the right and the bass-register sound to the left. Using a
different PAN setting places the entire voice, low and high notes in-
cluded, at the same position.
• The DRUMS voice has a preset PAN setting which cannot be changed.

LEFT PEDAL
■Left Pedal (Multi-function)
The left pedal has a number of functions which can be selected using the
[LEFT PEDAL] button. Each time the [TAP] or [METRONOME] button is
pressed while the [LEFT PEDAL] button is held, the next LEFT PEDAL function
is selected and shown on the display. The left pedal functions can also be selected
by using the TEMPO [▲] or [▼] button while holding the [LEFT PEDAL] but-
ton. It is also possible to select the left pedal function by repeatedly pressing the
[LEFT PEDAL] button while the left-pedal function name remains on the display.

■Center Pedal (Sostenuto Pedal)
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal while the note(s) are held, those notes will
be sustained as long as the pedal is held (as if the damper pedal had been pressed) but all subsequently played notes will
not be sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes are played “staccato.”
■Right Pedal (Damper Pedal)
The damper pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the damper pedal is
pressed notes played have a long sustain. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes.
NOTES
• The damper pedal can be set for continuous or on/off type damping control via
the “Damper Pedal Mode” utility function (page 62). Continuous control is th
default setting.
• The damper pedal can also be used to increase the depth of a unique
“Soundboard” effect for the PIANO voice (voice number 1). The maximum depth
of the Soundboard effect can be set via the “Damper Pedal Mode” utility function
(page 62).
Pressing the soft pedal subtly reduces the volume and slightly changes the tim-
bre of notes played. The amount of “softness” corresponds to how deeply the pedal
is pressed. The SOFT function is automatically selected whenever the POWER
switch is turned on.

START/STOP
The left pedal performs the same function as the panel [START/STOP] buttons.
For details on the START/STOP function, refer to the “Accompaniment” section,
page 18.
● Solo Styleplay .........................................................................................................................................
For details on the SOLO STYLEPLAY function see “SOLO STYLEPLAY” on
page 28 (the SOLO STYLEPLAY pedal function can only be selected when the
SOLO STYLEPLAY feature is in use).
NOTES
• The damper, soft, and sostenuto pedal functions do not affect the DRUMS voice.

LEFT PEDAL FUNCTION
PITCH BEND
When this function is selected the center and left pedals can be used to bend the
pitch of notes played on the keyboard up or down, respectively, while the center or
left pedal is held. The default pitch bend range is individually set for each voice.
The pitch bend range can be adjusted as required via the “Pitch Bend Range” utility
function (page 62).

Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Clavinova over a ±50-cent range (approximate) in
approximately 1.2-cent or 1-hertz intervals. A hundred “cents” equals one semitone, so the tuning
range provided allows fine tuning of overall pitch over a range of approximately a semitone. Pitch
control is useful for tuning the Clavinova to match other instruments or recorded music.
Pitch Control
● Tuning Up................................................................................................................................................
ZTo tune up (raise pitch), hold the A-1 and B-1 keys simultaneously (A-1 and B-
1 are the two lowest white keys on the keyboard) and press any key between C3
and B3. Each time a key in this range is pressed the pitch is raised by approxi-
mately 1.2 cents, up to a maximum of about 50 cents above standard pitch. To
raise the pitch in 1-hertz increments press the TEMPO [▲] button instead of
the C3-B3 keys. The TEMPO [▼] button can also be used to tune down while
the A-1 and B-1 keys are held.
XRelease the A-1 and B-1 keys.
● Tuning Down...........................................................................................................................................
ZTo tune down (lower pitch), hold the A-1 and A#-1 keys simultaneously and
press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range is pressed the
pitch is lowered by approximately 1.2 cents, up to a maximum of about 50 cents
below standard pitch. To lower the pitch in 1-hertz increments press the
TEMPO [▼] button instead of the C3-B3 keys. The TEMPO [▲] button can
also be used to tune up while the A-1 and A#-1 keys are held.
XRelease the A-1 and A#-1 keys.

● To Restore Standard Pitch* ...................................................................................................................
ZTo restore standard pitch (A3 = 440 Hz), hold the A-1, A#-1, and B-1 keys si-
multaneously and press any key between C3 and B3, or simultaneously press
the TEMPO [▲] and [▼] buttons.
XRelease the A-1, A#-1, and B-1 keys.
* Standard pitch (A3 = 440 Hz) is automatically set whenever the POWER
switch is initially turned on.
NOTES
• The PITCH function does not affect the DRUMS sound.
• Hold either the TEMPO [
s
] or [
t
] button for continuous scrolling in the specified
direction.
■The Pitch Display
The approximate pitch of A3 is shown on the display in Hertz while the pitch
control function is in operation. The total display range is from approximately 427
hertz (-50 cents) to 453 hertz (+50 cents).
