let's turn this...
using the same playing into this..
or even this.. exploring sounds
Hi i'm Christina K a piano teacher and i actively use a Yamaha Clavinova in my
lessons today we're going to explore how to take
a simple piece of piano music and transform it easily using the
Clavinova for this tutorial i'll be using a CVP-809
however the same procedure can be followed on a CVP-805
a 709 and a 609 feel free to download the sheet music
and play along here are the easy steps to add a
real-time accompaniment band to your playing first turn on the Clavinova
now touch split and fingering at the
bottom of the screen arrow across to the right to select
fingering type ai full keyboard ensure ACMP on/off
and auto fill in are set to on in the style area select pop and rock
select 60s pop and rock and arrow down to page 2 of 3
and select 60s rising pop press home now we can play the piece
using a piano sound and a live backing band that will follow me as i play
i'll just press sync start this will start the band automatically once i
start playing i'll press main variation b and c to
change the style variation and then at the end i'll press ending 3
to finish with a musical outro
we can save this combination of sounds and style
into a registration to do this we'll go back to main variation a making sure
it's not flashing pressing start and then to save we just
press memory 1 let's explore using other sounds
on the main screen touch cfx concert grand
touch organ and then transistor organ now select sixties combo organ one
press home to go to the main screen select left to turn on the left part
sound above left select the left voice
select organ now euro accomp1 we have now selected two different organ
sounds for different parts of the keyboard
we need to change the split point where the two sounds change
on the screen select split and fingering press and hold the picture of the
keyboard at the top of the screen while at the same time pressing c3
so now everything from c3 and down will be the euro accomp 1 organ
while everything above that will be the 60s combo organ one
now for the fun let's play house with the rising sun again
with the new sounds tap variation a making sure that it isn't flashing press
sync start as we're using an organ sound there's no need to use the sustain pedal
this time
to save this setup just go back to main variation one making sure that it's
not flashing press sync start again and then press memory and registration
two now that we've saved our registration
data to the internal memory we can load our setups really quickly by
pressing registration one or two this time without the memory
button taking this to the final step we can
also save our registrations to usb press registration minus and plus
together on the screen navigate to the usb
you might need to press the up arrow to find it
click the save icon enter the name of the piece
in this case the house of the rising sun
and you're done now that this has been saved to usb
the registration can be recalled anytime in the future by pressing
plus and minus together and selecting the registration saved
in this case the house of the rising sun i hope you've gotten something out of
this tutorial and i hope you have fun exploring your
Clavinova, thanks for watching bye
