1 [POWER] Switch
Press the [POWER] switch once to turn the power
ON, a second time to turn the power OFF. When the
power is initially turned ON, the [PIANO] voice
selector LED will light.
2 [MASTER VOLUME] Control
The [MASTER VOLUME] control adjusts the
volume (level) of sound produced by the Clavinova’s
internal stereo sound system. The [MASTER VOL-
UME] control also adjusts headphone volume when a
pair of headphones is plugged into the PHONES jack
(page 5).
3 [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] Button
The [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button allows access
to the Clavinova’s TRANSPOSE function (to shift
the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down) and
MIDI functions. For details refer to “TRANSPOSI-
TION” on page 8, and “MIDI FUNCTIONS” on page
13, respectively.
4 Voice Selectors
The CLP-311 has five voice selectors. Simply
press any of the voice selectors to select the corre-
sponding voice. The voice selector LED will light to
indicate which voice is currently selected.
The CLP-311 also has a DUAL mode in which
two voices can be played simultaneously across the
full range of the keyboard — see page 7 for details.
NOTE
• The PIANO voice is automatically selected
whenever the [POWER] switch is initially turned
ON.
5 [TEMPO] Control
This control adjusts the tempo of the CLP-311
metronome function as well as the playback tempo of
the recorder function. The tempo range is from 32 to
280 quarter-note beats per minute.
6 [METRONOME] Button
Turns the metronome sound on and off. The
[TEMPO] control, above, is used to set the tempo of
the metronome sound. More precise tempo settings
