Questions about Operations and Functions ■ How much data can I record? • Current memory (page 39): About 300KB • Storage memory (page 39): About 1,513KB ■ The on/off setting of the pedal connected to the AUX PEDAL jack is reversed. Some types of pedals may turn on and off in opposite fashion. Use the “AuxPedalType” parameter (page 98) in the “FUNCTION” menu to change the external pedal setting. ■ The song title is not correct.
Troubleshooting Appendix Problem Solution The power of the Clavinova does not turn on. The power cable is not plugged in (check at the Clavinova and at the electrical outlet). Insert the power cable plug firmly into the Clavinova and into the electrical outlet of the correct voltage (page 15). There is a clicking noise when you press the [POWER] button to turn the power on or off. This is caused by the electrical power within the instrument. This is not a malfunction.
Problem Cause Solution The USB storage device is not recognized by the instrument. The USB storage device may not be recognized by the instrument depending on the timing of the device connection or the setting of the [SELECT] switch. Disconnect the USB storage device and connect it again and select a device using the [SELECT] switch.
Data Compatibility This section covers basic information on data compatibility: whether or not other MIDI devices can playback the data recorded by CLP-380, and whether or not the CLP-380 can playback commercially available song data or song data created for other instruments or on a computer. Depending on the MIDI device or data characteristics, you may be able to play back the data without any problem, or you may have to perform some special operations before the data can be played back.
Data Compatibility ■ DOC (Disk Orchestra Collection) This voice allocation format is compatible with many of Yamaha’s MIDI devices, including the Clavinova series instruments. This is also common format used with various Yamaha software. ■ GS GS was developed by the Roland Corporation. In the same way as Yamaha XG, GS is a major enhancement of the GM specifically to provide more voices and drum kits and their variations, as well as greater expressive control over voices and effects.
