1. After you have selected the desired temperament please read the following section on selecting a key signature for the temperament before continuing KAWAI DIGITAL PIANO CA X KEY SIGNATURE OF TEMPERAMENT Limitless modulation of the key became available only after the invention of Equal temperament When we use a temperament other than Equal temperament we must carefully choose the key signature to play in For example if the song you are going to play is written in D major choose D as the temperament key np NHIEU To select the key signature of the temperament simply press one of the 88 piano keys The note name of the key you pressed will be ri CI shown in the display and it will be chosen as the key of the Key in A temperament NOTE Changing the key of the temperament will only change the balance of the tuning the pitch of the keyboard remains unchanged Use the TUNING or TRANSPOSE functions to change the pitch of the whole keyboard 3 MIDI CHANNEL This determines on which MIDI channel the CA piano will exchange MIDI information with an external MIDI instrument or a personal computer Press the ELECTRIC PIANO button while holding down the TOUCH and the TRANSPOSE buttons The display alternatively shows Chn Channel and the channel number The default channel is 1 T 3 o E 9 DJ 9 72 Use the VALUE buttons to change the channel number 4 TRANSMIT

3. 16 part multi timbral sound module Your CA piano is capable of playing back for example a four part song with two piano parts a string part and a choir part all sent from an external MIDI sequencer or a personal computer You can also play the CA piano along with a recorded song To set the CA piano to receive MIDI as a multi timbral instrument it must be connected with an external MIDI device or personal computer with appropriate software KAWAI DIGITAL PIANO CA X USING MIDI Connect the CA piano s MIDI IN jack and your external MIDI device s MIDI OUT jack with a MIDI cable Please note that the MIDI information is now being transmitted the opposite of our earlier setup The CA piano is now receiving MIDI data from your external MIDI device MIDI CHANNEL The next step is to match your MIDI channels When receiving MIDI data on the CA piano with multi timbral mode ON it is not necessary to specify a MIDI channel to use because the CA piano can receive data on multiple MIDI channels at once You do have to be careful to match MIDI channels between each part A MIDI channel can only have one sound assigned to it at a time You must set the MIDI channel for each part on both the transmitting external MIDI device and the receiving CA piano MIDI devices For example channel 1 for piano ch 2 for strings ch 3 for choir etc MIDI OUT Multi timbral On is a setup for 16 channel multi timbral operation You MULTI TIMBRAL
4. E Q o oO Q 2 o IW 3 RECORDER The CA piano s recorder records your playing much like a tape recorder and it is just as easy to use The CA piano records a song as digital data instead of audio data and stores the song inside the instrument Because the song is stored as digital information you can modify the song when you play it back You can for example adjust the tempo without changing the pitch or use a different effect setting from one you have recorded Once you understand the recorder you will find it to be a useful tool for both practicing and playing the piano BASICS OF THE RECORDER 12 Let s take a brief look at the recorders features TWO TRACK FIVE SONG RECORDER The CA piano s recorder is a 2 track 5 song recorder This means you can record up to five different songs store them in memory and play them back as you like Each song has two separate tracks called Parts that can be recorded separately This lets you record for example the left hand part first on one track then record the right hand part next on the other track while listening to the first track When you record or play back a song you can select which part track of which song you are going to record or play back When you are recording selecting the same part again to record will erase any previous recordings on that part Because of this it s important to remember when recording both parts separately after record

8. There are two aspects of channels one for receiving and one for sending The MIDI channel of the receiving instrument must be matched with the MIDI channel ofthe transmitting instrument The idea is just like television or radio If you have a desired station to watch or listen to you need to tune in to the right channel When a transmitting instrument uses channel 1 the receiving instrument must be set to use channel 1 also The CA piano lets you set the same channel number for both Transmit and receive There are 16 MIDI channels available to choose from on the CA piano In addition to channel to channel connection it is possible to receive multiple channels With MIDI instruments equipped with multi timbral capabilities you can receive multiple parts on multiple channels each played with a different sound simultaneously For example a MIDI instrument might receive the melody on channel 1 the chords on 2 the bass on 3 and assign a different instrument to each channel Piano for channel 1 strings for 2 electric bass for 3 In this way the CA piano can play up to 16 different parts each with a different sound Here s a diagram to summarize the MIDI connections we have discussed Instrument 1 which is transmitting the piano part on channel 1 Ch 1 the string part on Ch 2 and the bass part on Ch 3 is connected to Instrument 2 Instrument 3 is connected to MIDI Thru on instrument 2 The receive channel is set to 1 for Instrument 2
