Connections

IMPORTANT!

Whenever connecting something to the digital piano, first use the VOLUME controller to set the volume to a low level. After connecting, you can adjust the volume to the level you want.

Connect commercially available headphones to the PHONES jacks. Connecting headphones to either of the PHONES jack cuts off output to the speakers, which means you can practice even late at night without bothering others. To protect your hearing, make sure that you do not set the volume level too high when using headphones.

NOTE

Be sure to push the headphones plug into the PHONES jacks as far as it will go. If you dont, you may hear sound from only one side of the headphones.

If the plug of the headphones you are using does not match the PHONES jacks, use the applicable commercially available adaptor plug.

If you are using headphones that require an adaptor plug, make sure you do not leave the adaptor plugged in when you unplug the headphones. If you do, nothing will sound from the speakers when you play.

You can connect audio equipment or a music amplifier to the digital piano and then play through external speakers for more powerful volume and better sound quality.

Connecting Audio Equipment (Figure 1)

Use commercially available connecting cords (Standard Plug 1, Pin Plugs 2) to connect as shown in Figure 1. Make sure that the end of the cord that you connect to the digital piano is a stereo standard plug. A monaural standard plug will result in output of only one of the two stereo channels. Normally, you should set the input selector of the audio equipment to the terminal where the digital piano is connected (AUX IN, etc.) Adjust volume using the digital pianos VOLUME controller.

Connecting a Music Amplifier (Figure 2)

Connect the connecting cord* to one of the types of amplifiers shown in Figure 2. Adjust volume using the digital pianos VOLUME controller.

NOTE

Of the digital pianos 18 built-in tones, the first five are grand piano tone. Each tone has its own distinctive merits, so you should select the tone that suits the song you are playing along with or your own personal preferences. The CONCERT and MODERN tones are assigned to buttons for quick and easy selection.

* Feature that applies computer morphing technology to enable seamless changes between sounds sampled at various dynamics from a full concert grand piano.

Bass Tones (BASS 1, BASS 2)

Selecting either of the two BASS (LOWER) tones (1 or 2) in step 1 of the above procedure will assign the selected bass tone to the low range (left side) of the keyboard. The high range (right side) will be assigned the tone that was selected when you pressed the BASS 1 or BASS 2 key. BASS 1 and BASS 2 let you effectively split the

keyboard between two different tones.

NOTE

To return the keyboard to a single tone, select any tone other than BASS 1 or BASS 2.

You cannot select BASS 1 or BASS 2 when recording to Track 2.

Tone Name Characteristics

CONCERT This is a full concert grand piano tone that uses Linear Morphing* for dynamic and natural tone changes. This tone is designed to reproduce damper, resonance, and other piano nuances, which makes it ideal for virtually any type of piano performance.

MODERN This tone provides a bright grand piano sound. The volume and timbre of this tone is quick to respond to different keyboard pressures, and it has relatively deep reverb. This tone is a good choice for dynamic and lively performances.

CLASSIC This is a natural piano tone that closely resembles the sound of an acoustic piano. Though reverb and other flashy effects are subdued for this tone, resonance is more pronounced, which enables expression of delicate nuances. This tone is a good choice for lesson and practice sessions.

Assembling the Stand

PREPARATION This stand does not include any of the tools required

for assembly. It is up to you to prepare a large Philips head (+) screwdriver for assembly.

IMPORTANT!

If anything is missing or damaged, contact your local CASIO service provider.

Note that use of any unauthorized parts or components can cause damage to the stand and/or the piano.

Before starting stand assembly, unfasten the band 1 that bundles the pedal cord in the back of crosspiece D, and extend the cord.

CAUTION Assembly of the stand should be performed by at

least two people working together. This stand should be assembled on a flat surface. Do not remove the tape securing the keyboard cover

in place until assembly is complete. Removing the tape can cause the keyboard cover to open and close during assembly, creating the risk of personal injury to your hands and fingers.

Take care that you do not pinch your fingers between parts when assembling them.

1. Attach side panels A and B to crosspiece D. Secure the side panels using four E screws. When installing parts 2, slide the brackets 3 into the

slots in either end of crosspiece D. If the brackets 3 are not inserted into the ends of the crosspiece D as far as they will go, the screws E will not be able to enter into the screw holes of the brackets 3, which can strip the threads of the screws.

Cover the screw heads with the caps J.

2. Turn off the digital piano and then exit the music software on your computer. Next, turn the digital piano back on and then restart the music software on your computer.

It takes a long time before I can use the Digital Piano after I turn it on.

Digital Piano memory data was corrupted because a data transfer operation with a computer was in progress the last time you turned off the piano. When this happens, the Digital Piano performs a memory format operation the next time you turn it on. You cannot perform any other operation while a format operation is in progress.

It takes about 20 seconds after you turn on power to perform the memory format operation. Wait until the format operation is complete. Note that you should take care to avoid turning off the Digital Piano while a data transfer operation with a computer is in progress.

E-26

A tones quality and volume sounds slightly different depending where it is played on the keyboard.

This is an unavoidable result of the digital sampling process,* and does not indicate malfunction. * Multiple digital samples are taken for the low range, middle range, and high range of the original

musical instrument. Because of this, there may be very slight differences in tonal quality and volume between sample ranges.

When I press a button, the note that is sounding cuts out momentarily or there is a slight change in how effects are applied.

This happens when the sounds of multiple parts are sounding at the same time while using layer, using the Duet Mode, playing back a built-in tune, recording, etc. Pressing a button when one of these conditions exists will cause the effect setting that is built into the tone to change automatically, which causes notes to cut out momentarily or causes a slight change in how effects are being applied.
