Overview  
This manual provides you with all the information you will need in  
order to take full advantage of the Concert Performer’s potential.  
Before you begin learning how to use the specific features, it is  
important to understand some of the basic ideas behind the  
instrument’s design.  
features that it is simply impractical to have a dedicated button for  
every single one. As a result, many features and functions are  
selected by choosing them from lists, or “menus”, that are presented  
to you on the CP’s large display screen. Often times selecting an  
item from a menu may access another “sub-menu” of options  
specific to that item. This system of menus and sub-menus keeps  
everything logical and straightforward and becoming familiar with  
how to make your way through them is very easy.  
The Concert Performer has been designed to have an easy and  
intuitive user interface. However, the instrument has so many  
LCD Screen  
The LCD Screen is the window through which the Concert Performer communicates with you. The  
large display size allows many items to be clearly displayed at the same time, allowing for not only  
words but graphics to be shown as well.  
Select Buttons  
Most of the buttons on the front panel are used to directly select a function on the CP that you  
would like to work with. In most cases, the specific function name is printed on the front panel  
directly above the button. For example, there are buttons labeled 1-2 PLAY, FILL-IN, and so on. In  
this manual, references to these buttons are always printed in capital letters for clarity. Most of  
these buttons have an LED Indicator (small light) on them. This Indicator will be turned ON when  
a function is in use so that you can quickly see if that function is active.  
There are 17 SELECT buttons surrounding the LCD screen that do not have labels printed next to  
them because they do not have predetermined functions. Instead, they are used to select whatever  
items are currently displayed next to them on the LCD screen. For example, a SELECT button  
might be used to select an instrument sound on one screen, while on another screen the same  
SELECT button might serve to activate a feature related to Floppy Disk.

This chapter discusses the basic operations that are used to play  
the Concert Performer, such as sound selection, Part configuration  
and effect settings.  
Selecting a Part to Play  
When the CP’s main play screen is displayed (For example, when the CP is first turned on), you are  
presented with three sound Parts that can be played from the keyboard. These three Parts are  
named LEFT/SPLIT, RIGHT 1 and RIGHT 2, and each one has an instrument sound assigned to it.  
You can selectively turn on/off any combination of these three Parts, allowing you to have up to  
three different sounds at the same time across the keyboard.  
Sounds assigned to Parts RIGHT 1 and RIGHT 2 will be layered on top of each other when both  
Parts are active at the same time. Activating the LEFT/SPLIT Part automatically splits the keyboard  
so that only the sound that is assigned to the LEFT/SPLIT Part is heard when you play in the lower  
octave keys. Each Part has a dedicated button on the front panel that selects and turns on/off that  
Part. You can also select a Part by pressing the appropriate L or R button.  
Selecting a Part is easy:  
1) Press the PART button for the Part you wish to activate. The PART button LED will light.  
2) Press the PART button again to turn that Part off.  
• If the LCD screen is currently showing the main play screen, you can tell which Parts are active  
by looking at the name of the sound assigned to it. If the name of a sound is in large typeface,  
then the Part it is assigned to is active. If the sound name is displayed in small typeface, then the  
Part is not active.  
This example indicates:  
L 1  
L 2  
R 1  
R 2  
RIGHT1 is currently active  
RIGHT2, LEFT are inactive.

Splitting the keyboard.  
When the LEFT/SPLIT Part is activated, the CP automatically splits the keyboard and only the  
sound assigned to the LEFT/SPLIT Part will be heard when you play below a specified key (split  
point) on the keyboard. The default split point is between F2 and F#2 but you can freely change the  
split point to any key on the keyboard.  
To change the split point:  
1) Press the LEFT/SPLIT button to activate the LEFT/SPLIT Part. The LEFT/SPLIT button LED will light  
and the LCD screen will display a diagram of the CP’s 88 note keyboard.  
2) Press the LEFT/SPLIT button again, and while holding it down, press the desired key on the keyboard  
that you want to serve as the split point. The key you press will become the lowest note the Right  
hand Parts will play (RIGHT1 and RIGHT2). The LEFT/SPLIT sound will be heard when keys below  
the split point are played.  
You may also use the L4 and R4 buttons to move the split point. On the LCD screen the split point  
marker will move across the 88 note keyboard diagram as you press these buttons.

• Moving the split point completely to the LEFT end of the keyboard will allow the LEFT/SPLIT  
Part to function as a layer with the two right hand Parts. In this manner you can create a three-  
part layer across the entire keyboard.

Selecting Sounds  
The Concert Performer has over 600 instrument and drum sounds available from the front panel.  
You can freely assign any of these sounds to the three Parts. Remember that there is always a sound  
assigned to each of the Parts, even if some of the Parts are not currently active.  
The sounds span a tremendous variety of instruments, ranging from traditional acoustic sounds to  
modern electronic tones. To help you quickly find the sound that you want, the sounds have been  
organized into 15 categories. Each category has a dedicated Sound Selection button on the front  
panel.  
To select a Sound:  
1) In the main play screen, select the Part to which you wish to assign a new sound using the L3, or R2-  
R3 buttons. The selected Part will become highlighted.

Effects  
You might have noticed that when you select some of the sounds, the LED indicator for the REVERB,  
CHORUS, or EFFECTS button is turned on. The reason for this is some of the sounds are set up  
with one or more of these effects on as part of their initial setting.  
REVERB  
CHORUS  
EFFECT  
Adding an effect to the sound enhances tonal quality and improves acoustical realism. The CP  
piano is provided with three separate groups of effects. The first is REVERB, the second is CHORUS,  
and third group EFFECTS contains other useful effects such as Delay, Phaser, Rotary Speaker etc.  
There is a dedicated button on the front panel for each Effects group and each of the three Effect  
groups can be turned on/off separately or used in combination for each part. The Concert Performer  
has a selection of 27 different Reverb, Chorus, and Effect types that can be used to enhance or even  
dramatically alter the instrument sounds. Each of the over 600 instrument and drum sounds has  
already been assigned a REVERB and CHORUS setting and an additional EFFECT that suits that  
particular type of instrument. For example, a moderate Delay effect is used on the Church Organ to  
recreate the sense of being in a large church, and a Rotary speaker effect is used on the Drawbar  
organ to give it an authentic, vintage feel.  
If you wish, you can change any of these effect settings to suit your tastes separately for each sound  
save them as the new Preset effect settings for that Sound (See Sound Edit on page 88). In addtion,  
by setting the Effect For Sound function in the System to “Panel” the CP will ignore the preset  
effect settings for each Sound (see Effect For Sound on page 115).  
(The CP piano can also remember your Effect settings as part of a Registration. See Registration on  
page 31.)  
To add Reverb:  
1) Press the REVERB button. The REVERB button LED will light.  
2) If you wish to edit the settings, hold down the REVERB button for a moment until the Reverb Settings  
screen is displayed.  
3) Use the F3-F7 buttons to select the Part you want to edit.  
4) Use the L2-L4 buttons to select the specific setting that you wish to change.  
5) Use the Dial to change the value.  
6) Press the EXIT button to leave the Reverb Settings menu.  
7) If you wish to turn the reverb effect off, press the REVERB button again.

Effect Types  
Chorus  
Simulates the rich character of a vocal choir or string ensemble, by layering a  
slightly detuned version of the sound over the original to enrich it.  
Flanger  
Creates a shifting comb-filter, which adds motion and a “hollow” tone to the  
sound.  
Celeste  
A three-phase chorus without modulation.  
Ensemble  
Delay 1-3  
A three-phase chorus with a slight modulation to each phase.  
Adds echoes to the sound. The three types differ in the length of time between  
the echoes.  
Auto Pan  
Tremolo  
Moves the sound left and right across the stereo field at a variable rate.  
Modulates the volume of the sound. This is a vibrato type effect.  
Tremulant  
A combination of Tremolo and Vibrato. It simulates the tremulant pipes of a  
church organ.  
Phaser  
Creates a phase change, adding motion to the sound.  
Rotary 1-2  
This effect simulates the sound of the Rotary Speaker cabinet commonly used  
with electric organs. Rotary 2 adds distortion. The soft pedal is used to change  
the speed of the rotor between SLOW and FAST.  
Auto Wah  
Sweeps a tone filter up and down at the beginning of a note, recreating the popular  
vintage wah wah pedal sound.  
Enhancer  
Distortion  
Emphasizes high frequencies to make a sound more easily discernible in a mix.  
Adds frequencies that were not present in the original sound, resulting in a “fuzzy”  
or warmer tone.

Effect Priority Guidelines  
Reverb and Chorus are global effects. In other words, all of the Parts and the Accompaniment Style  
must share the same Reverb and Chorus type. However each of these Parts can have a different  
amount of Reverb and Chorus applied to them. In addition Reverb and Chorus can be independently  
turned on/off for each part. However, since the CP’s EFFECT section can only have one Effect  
turned on at a time (in addition to the REVERB and CHORUS), what happens if you have two (or  
more) Parts active, with entirely different sounds, each with a different Effect setting?  
In these cases, the CP’s Effects section can only use the Effect settings for one of the Parts. The  
EFFECT section chooses which Effect settings to use based upon a predetermined priority order  
for each of the Parts. The Priority order is RIGHT 1> RIGHT 2 > LEFT/SPLIT. The preset effect  
settings for the Priority Part will be used and the other Parts will either share these settings or may  
have their Effects automatically turned off.  
This “Priority Part” depends on the current situation. If you only have one Part active, regardless  
of which Part it is, the preset effect settings for that sound will be used. If you have two or more  
Parts active, then the CP will treat one of them as the Priority Part, and ignore the settings of the  
other(s).  
If the Effect For Sound is set to “Panel” in the System then the Preset effect settings for each Sound  
will be ignored and the Part Priority will be ignored. (See Effect For Sound on page 115).  
Here are some guidelines for Effect Priority:  
• Priority is given to the Parts in the following order: RIGHT1>RIGHT2>LEFT. This means that  
anytime the RIGHT1 Part is active, its Effect settings will be used, not only for its sound but for  
any sound in any other Part, that you want to add effects to. Likewise, the only time an active  
LEFT Part’s settings will be applied is if the other 2 Parts are inactive.  
• Unlees you change them, the Effect settings will only change in response to a change in the  
Priority Part being activated/deactivated, or a new sound is assigned to an active Priority Part.  
In the latter case, the new Effect settings will reflect the Preset effect settings for the new  
sound.  
• When the Effect settings change for the Piority Part, the Effects will be automatically turned off  
for the other Parts. (This is so that your Flute sound on RIGHT2 doesn’t suddenly get effected  
by the Distortion settings of the Electric Guitar that you’ve just assigned to the RIGHT1 Part!)  
• You can, however, turn the effect on for any Part by adjusting the Effect On/Off option in the  
display for that Part.

• The LED Indicator on the EFFECT and CHORUS buttons will be on only when the active Priority  
Part has these effects turned on.  
Example  
Assume that your CP is set up according to the following chart:  
RIGHT1  
Inactive  
On  
RIGHT 2  
Active  
On  
LEFT  
Active  
On  
INDICATOR  
On  
Part  
Effect  
If you then select a different sound for RIGHT2, the Effect setting for the RIGHT1, LEFT will be  
turned off automatically. This is because RIGHT2 is the Priority Part (note that the RIGHT1 Part is  
NOT the Priority Part because it was inactive).  
The chart would now look like this:  
RIGHT1  
Inactive  
Off  
RIGHT 2  
Active  
On  
LEFT  
Active  
Off  
INDICATOR  
On  
Part  
Effect  
Even if you now assign a new sound to the RIGHT1 Part, the Effect settings for the other Parts  
won’t change, because RIGHT1 is still inactive, so therefore would not have priority.  
Once you make the RIGHT1 Part active, however, it would now be considered the Priority Part.  
The Effect settings for the other Parts will again be turned off. The Indicator light on the EFFECT  
button will now reflect the Effect status for the sound assigned to RIGHT1.  
RIGHT1  
Active  
Off  
RIGHT 2  
Active  
Off  
LEFT  
Active  
Off  
INDICATOR

At this point, if the Effect that has been called up along with the RIGHT1 sound is one that you’d  
like to use for the other Parts, simply select Effect On in the LCD display for those Parts.

Transpose and Octave Shift  
Transpose raises or lowers the CP’s pitch in half- step increments. Octave Shift does the same but  
in octave increments.  
TRANSPOSE  
Transpose can be especially useful when you have learned a song in one key and have to play it in  
another key. The transpose feature allows you to play the song in the original key, but hear it in  
another key. You can transpose the Concert Magic songs, the Accompaniment Styles, any songs  
played back by the Easy/Advanced Recorder and any of the over 600 instrument and drum sounds  
available in the CP.  
OCTAVE SHIFT  
Octave shift can be very useful when you are playing multiple sounds across the keyboard. You  
may want to use the octave shift to adjust a bass sound assigned to the LEFT/SPLIT Part to play in  
the proper pitch range, or to set one sound in a layer to play in a different octave so that it mixes  
well with other sounds in the layer. Octave shift is only available for the three Parts: LEFT/SPLIT,  
RIGHT1 and RIGHT 2.  
To Transpose:  
1) Press either the ß or TRANSPOSE buttons. The LCD screen shows you a number telling you how  
many half steps up or down you have transposed the piano. -5, for example, represents a transposition  
that is 5 half steps lower.  
2) To cancel the Transpose setting, press both the ß and buttons at the same time. The transpose  
amount will disappear from the LCD screen, indicating that the CP is now back to its original setting.  
To use the Octave Shift:  
1) Select the Part that you would like to apply the shift to.  
2) Press either the ß or OCTAVE SHIFT buttons. The number of shifted octaves (up or down) will be  
displayed with an “ß” in the LCD screen.  
3) To cancel the octave shift, press both the ß and buttons at the same time. The symbols will  
disappear from the screen, indicating that the selected Part is back to its normal octave range.

• The Octave Shift has a range of four octaves in each direction. However, some on board sounds  
may have a limited range in which they play properly. If you shift too far out of this range, the  
instrument may sound strange or may not play at all. This has no affect on the CP’s proper  
function though, and you should feel encouraged to use this feature as a means of getting  
interesting tonal variations out of the preset Sounds.

Metronome  
Rhythm is one of the most important elements when learning music. It is important to practice  
playing the piano at the correct tempo and with a steady rhythm. The CP piano’s metronome is a  
tool that helps you to achieve this by providing a steady beat for you play along with.  
To use the Metronome:  
METRONOME  
TAP TEMPO  
1) Press the METRONOME button. The CP piano will start counting with an audible steady beat. You  
will see Volume level, Beat (time signature), as well as the Metronome icon appear in the LCD  
screen next to the Tempo value.  
2) Use the BEAT, VOLUME, or TEMPO buttons (F2–F7) to select the setting you wish to change.  
3) Use the F buttons (F2-F7) or the Dial to change the values.  
You can also adjust the tempo by tapping on the TAP TEMPO button. Simply tap on the button with  
your finger three or more times at the desired tempo, and the CP will automatically translate that  
into a tempo value on the screen!  
4) To stop the metronome, press the METRONOME button again.

Using a Style  
The Concert Performer contains 150 built-in Styles for you to play  
along with, covering a wide variety of musical genres. You can  
choose from a simple drum or percussion accompaniment or add  
in a fully orchestrated arrangement. In addition to the Full Styles  
which provide a full musical arrangement including Drums, Bass,  
and other accompanying instruments, there are Intimate Styles with  
Solo Piano Styles if you just want to play along with a piano  
accompaniment. If the on board variety of styles is not enough, or  
if you have creative ideas of your own, the CP contains other  
features such as Style Maker and Conductor to help you edit or  
create your own custom Styles. These features are explained in  
the section of this manual “Creating Your Own Styles”, page 74.  
Selecting and Playing a Style  
The Styles are organized into 15 categories, each with a dedicated STYLE SELECT button on the  
front panel.  
To select a Style:  
1) Press the STYLE button for the category of your choice. The LCD screen will display the first Style  
Selection page for that category.  
2) Press the L or R button next to the on-screen name of the Style you wish to select.  
3) Each Style category has two pages of styles. If you don't see your desired Style on the currently  
displayed page, you can use the F1- F2 buttons to select the other page. Press another STYLE button  
to jump to another category, or turn the Dial to scroll through all the Styles one by one.  
4) If you wish play the selected Style, press either  
the START/STOP button to start the Style playing immediately,  
or the INTRO/ENDING button to start the Style with an Intro pattern.  
You can also press the SYNC/FADE OUT button before starting a Style or pressing the INTRO/ENDING  
buttons. When the SYNC/FADE OUT button is pressed, the Style will not start until you play a note or  
chord on the keyboard.  
5) To adjust the tempo of the Style, select Tempo on the main play screen and use the Dial to change the  
Tempo.  
You can also use the TAP TEMPO button. Tap the button three or more times at the desired tempo,  
and the CP will automatically translate your taps into an on-screen Tempo value.  
6) To stop the Style, press either,  
the START/STOP button to stop the Style immediately,  
or the INTRO/ENDING button to stop with an ending pattern,  
You can also press the SYNC/FADE OUT button and have the Style fade out gradually.

• The CP remembers the last Style selection that you made within each category while the power  
is on. When you press a STYLE button, the CP will automatically select the Style previously  
chosen in the same category.  
• When you switch from one Style to another while it is running, the new Style will wait until the  
beginning of the next measure before it begins to play.  
Fill-In and Variation  
Each Style is made of four Variation patterns and four Fill-in patterns.  
Fill-ins are short patterns that temporarily embellish the Style. Fill-ins can add excitement and  
rhythmic change to the Style and be used as a musical lead in between the Variations. To use a Fill-  
in, just press one of the FILL IN buttons. You will hear the fill-in begin playing immediately from a  
musically appropriate spot.

Fill-ins can also be used as a short intro. First press the SYNC/FADE OUT button then press one of  
the FILL-IN buttons to select a desired Fill-in. Press any key on the keyboard to start the style. After  
the Fill-in plays, the selected Variation will play.  
To select a Variation, press one of the four VARIATION buttons to select the desired Variation. The  
Selected VARIATION button LED will light.  
• You can set the CP to automatically play a Fill-in anytime you press a VARIATION button as you  
switch from one Variation to another. Select your preferred option in the Fill-in mode. (See page  
114)  
Auto Accompaniment System  
The Auto-accompaniment System (ACC) is a powerful feature that determines how the Styles will  
interact with you as you play. The ACC System analyzes your playing and adjusts the notes the  
Style plays to follow the Chords that you play on the keyboard. The ACC System is capable of  
recognizing single finger as well as more complex chord voicings. The CP recognizes 61 chord  
types as well as most of their inversions. (See page 160 for a chord table.) There are three modes of  
key recognition—One Finger, Fingered, and Full Keyboard. Your choice of which mode to use  
depends on your skill level and the selected musical style.

Fingered  
The player must play at least three notes of a chord below the split point (LEFT/  
SPLIT Part) before the ACC System will recognize the chord type. (See page 198  
for chord table.)  
One Finger  
Uses a simplified chord method that allows beginners to specify a chord type by  
playing only one or two notes below the split point. The types of chords that can  
be recognized in this manner are limited to Major, Minor, 7th and Major 7th.  
While the player can trigger basic chords with as little as one finger, the ACC  
System will recognize more complex chord types if you play them, even you are  
in the One Finger mode.  
Full Keyboard The player must play at least three notes of a chord anywhere across the 88 keys  
before the ACC System will recognize the chord type. This mode is similar to  
Fingered however, Full Keyboard recognizes chord types from three or more  
notes played anywhere across the 88 keys not just below the split point.  
Bass Inversion  
When Bass Inversion is on, the Bass Section of the Style will follow the lowest note of the chord  
voicing played on the keyboard. With Bass Inversion on it is possible to specify a chord over a  
certain bass note by the chord voicing you play. For example, a C chord over a G bass, or a Bb7  
chord over a C Bass. Bass Inversion will work with all three key recognition modes but when in  
One Finger mode, you play at least two notes of a chord for Bass Inversion to function.  
To turn Auto-accompaniment (ACC) on:  
1) Select a Style that you would like to play.  
2) Press one of the ACCOMPANIMENT buttons to select the Key Recognition mode. The selected Key  
recognition mode will be displayed at the bottom of the LCD screen if you're on the main play screen.  
3) Press the BASS INVERSION button if you would like to turn it on.  
4) Press the ACC ON/OFF button to activate the Auto-accompaniment System (ACC).  
5) Press the START/STOP button to start the Style, and play some chords in the LEFT/SPLIT Part. You  
will hear the Style start and also change keys and chord types as you play different chords.  
6) If you want to cancel or stop the Auto-accompaniment, press the ACC ON/OFF button again. If you  
turn the ACC off without stopping the Style the drum rhythms will continue to play.

• When you play along with the Auto-accompaniment using the Fingered or Full Keyboard modes,  
you may hear two sounds playing the chords: one is selected by the front panel and the other is  
pre programmed for the Style. This is because the sounds used by the Auto-accompaniment  
Style are independent of the Left and Right Part sound settings. Therefore you will hear the  
instrument sounds played by your hand as well as those generated by the accompaniment.  
In most cases, these are just duplicate notes being played using different sounds. In some cases  
however, you may hear different notes or an unexpected chord inversion. If the overall musical  
effect is undesirable, try turning the LEFT/SPLIT Part off and let the accompaniment play alone.  
• You can use the Auto-accompaniment (ACC) System without the Style running. In this way you  
can make use of the chord recognition without having the pre programmed rhythms or patterns  
playing. Just turn the ACC on and play without starting the Style. You will hear the bass and  
chord parts only. This may be useful when you play a musical piece that is not played with  
drums. The accompaniment sounds are pre programmed to best suit the different Styles, and  
you cannot alter them. When playing in One Finger mode, however, you can replace the chord  
sound with the sound chosen for the LEFT/SPLIT Part. Assign your preferred sound and make  
the LEFT/SPLIT Part active.  
You can also start a Style without the ACC on. In this way you can have just drums and percussion  
accompany you.  
1-2 Play  
If you want to play using an Accompaniment Style, but have no idea as to what sounds you should  
use for the right and left-hand parts, try using the 1-2 Play feature. This feature gives you a  
preprogrammed panel setup with appropriate sounds and settings for the Style you have chosen.  
To use 1-2 Play:  
1-2  
1) Select the Style you would like to play.  
PLAY  
2) Press the 1-2 PLAY button. The 1-2 Play indicator will become lit, and the words “1-2 Play” are  
displayed in the Main Screen. The SYNC/FADE OUT button is activated as well.  
3) Activate one of the INTO/ENDING buttons if you want the Style to begin with an introduction. Start the  
Style by playing a key on the left side of the keyboard, or by pressing the START/STOP button.  
4) Press the 1-2 PLAY button again to turn it off.

Parts (Right 1/2, Left), Tempo, and Mixer settings.  
Registration  
A Registration is a setup that remembers the panel settings along with many other performance  
functions so that you can recall them at the touch of a button. This lets you begin to play quickly  
instead of spending a lot of time programming all the settings and values manually.  
There are 8 Registration buttons on the panel of the Concert Performer. Each button contains a  
different registration. Pressing any of the Registration buttons activates the setup stored there.  
Pressing another Registration button changes to the registration stored in that button. Pressing the  
active Registration button again deactivates the registration and returns you to the original panel  
setup.  
Registration Groups  
There are 10 Registration Groups in the Concert Performer. Each group contains settings for the 8  
Registration buttons on the panel. Each group represents a “family” of settings for the CP. The  
sound and performance capability of the Concert Performer is remarkable, and each registration  
group is designed to take full advantage of certain types of sounds available in the instrument.  
Switching from one Registration Group to another instantly changes the Registration buttons from  
Pipe Organ settings to Orchestra settings, for example.  
• The default Registration Group is “American Pop”, a family of registrations designed to play  
popular music from the 1940’s through today.  
With 8 Registration buttons and 10 Registration Groups, you have a total of 80 preprogrammed  
Registrations available. Plus, you can overwrite any registration with your own unique setups.  
To use a Registration:  
REGIST  
1) Press the REGIST GROUPS button. Ten Registration Groups will be displayed.  
2) Highlight any Group from the list by using the L and R buttons.  
3) Press one of the eight REGISTRATION buttons to activate a Registration from your selected Registration  
Group.

Song Stylist  
SONG  
With over 600 Sounds and 150 Styles, it can sometimes be difficult to decide the best settings with  
which to play a song. Even if you are very familiar with the Concert Performer, you may want a  
quick way to change the CP’s setup to play another song. The Song Stylist feature was created to  
handle this situation for you. You simply pick the name of the song you want to play and the  
Concert Performer sets up everything for you.  
STYLIST  
The Song Stylist contains a list of 500 popular song titles. In the Song Stylist, there is an appropriate  
setup for each of those songs. You may search for your favorite title either alphabetically by song  
name, or by category of musical genre. Once you’ve found the song you want to play, simply press  
one button and the CP is immediately setup for that song and ready for you to begin.  
• The Song Stylist contains no prerecorded music, only the setup to play the chosen song. You  
must play the actual music yourself.  
To use the Song Stylist:  
1) Press the SONG STYLIST button. The Category list appears, showing the different musical genres for  
the SONG STYLIST.  
2) Use the SEARCH BY CATEGORY buttons (F1, F2) to display the Category choices on the other page.  
When you have found the category you want, use the L and R buttons to select it. A list of songs

automatically adds notes to your right hand (melody) part to help you sound more professional.  
This function analyzes the notes you play and automatically adds notes from the Accompaniment  
chord (shown in the Main Screen when the Accompaniment is on), creating a “harmony” part (even  
if you are only playing single notes in the left and right hands).  
There are 10 types of Harmony.

Recording a Song  
The CP has built-in recording capabilities that allow you to record  
and play back your performances. Since the CP records your  
performances as digital data, not audio data, you can easily edit  
your performances after recording them. There are two ways to  
use the CP’s recording feature:  
independent tracks separately. In addition, with Advanced  
Recorder you can edit your recorded data one measure or even  
one note at a time.  
Song data created on other instruments in the Standard MIDI File  
format (SMF) can also be loaded into the CP’s recorder to be played  
or edited. The CP’s recorder can read both Type 1 and 0 SMF files.  
Easy Recorder records your playing much like a tape recorder and  
is just as easy to use. The CP will record all of your playing as well  
as any changes you make to the front panel settings during the  
recording.  
Please read the following sections carefully to learn more about  
the capabilities of the Easy and Advanced recorder.  
Advanced Recorder is useful for creating more complex recordings.  
Advanced Recorder gives you the ability to record on up to 16  
Easy Recording  
The Easy Recorder will record all of your playing as well as any settings you have made on the front  
panel or in the mixer screen at the touch of a button. Simply press the REC button and the CP will  
begin recording with the first note you play. You can also record a Style along with your playing if  
you like. Before you begin recording its a good idea to select your desired sound(s) and make any  
panel settings you would like to record.  
To record:

B. If you are recording with a Style, press the START/STOP button to start the recorder with the Style.  
Pressing the INTRO/ENDING button will include an Intro phrase at the beginning of the recording.  
C. You can also press the SYNC button to begin recording the Style and your own playing together.  
D. Press the PLAY/STOP button to start with a 2-bar countdown to help you get ready.

Part Status  
The playback and record status for the RIGHT/ LEFT Parts and the Style are displayed at the bottom  
of the LCD screen. Whether you are in the process of recording or playing back your song it is  
helpful to know the status for each of these Parts.  
The LCD screen will show the following Part status messages at the bottom of the screen:  
REC  
This Part is ready to be recorded. This message is only displayed after the REC button has  
been pressed.  
PLAY  
This Part has been recorded and will be heard both on playback and while recording.  
MUTE This Part has been recorded but will be silent both on playback and while recording.  
– – – This part has not been recorded.  
After you have recorded a song you can change the status for a Part by pressing the appropriate  
button, F3-6 below the LCD screen. Pressing the F buttons during playback will select PLAY or  
MUTE. REC can only be selected after you press the REC button but before you begin recording.  
During recording you can however set any Part to PLAY or MUTE by pressing the appropriate F  
button.  
You can record all RIGHT/LEFT Parts as well as the Style simultaneously or only certain Parts as  
you choose. When you first record a song all Parts and the Style will be automatically set to REC  
but only the active Parts and the Style will be recorded. When you are finished recording the status  
for any active Parts and the Style will automatically change from REC to PLAY. After recording, the  
status for any RIGHT/LEFT Parts that were not active during recording will be automatically changed  
to - - - to show they have not been recorded yet.  
When you press the PLAY/STOP button to listen to your song any Parts set to PLAY status will be  
heard.  
Re-recording or adding another Part  
After you have recorded a song you can Re-record a Part or add (overdub) other Parts if you like  
with the following procedure. Re-recording a Part completely erases the previous performance for  
that Part automatically.  
To Re-record or add a Part:  
1) Make sure the Part(s) you wish to Re-record are active, then select any sounds or change panel  
settings as desired.

2) Press the REC button.  
3) Press the appropriate F button(s) below the LCD screen to set the desired Part(s) to REC.  
4) Begin recording by following step 2 in the “To Record” section on page 42.  
Remember Re-Recording a Part completely erases the previously recorded performance for that  
Part. You can Re-record or add any of the RIGHT/LEFT Parts as many times as you like but you can  
only have one performance/sound for each RIGHT/LEFT Part.  
Saving the song  
Once you finish recording a song you should save it to disk before you turn the power OFF. Once  
the power is turned OFF your song data will be lost.  
See the section titled “Saving Data to a Floppy Disk” on page 131.  
• If you press the EXIT button to get out of the Easy Recorder, the CP will automatically prompt  
you to save your work.  
Erasing the song  
Whenever a Part is selected for recording, the new performance is written right over any existing  
one that may be there for that Part. In this sense, the Easy Recorder is just like a tape machine. A  
new song will simply erase the old song during the recording process.  
However, if you wish to simply erase all the Parts and the Style in a song at once you can use the  
Delete function.  
To delete a song:  
1) Press the DELETE button (F2) while the Recorder is not recording or currently ready to record. The  
CP will ask if you are sure.  
2) Use either the YES (F7) button to proceed or NO (F1) to cancel.

Real-time Recording  
With Real-time record, the CP records your performance as you are playing it, in real-time. You can  
select any of the sixteen instrument tracks or the Style and tempo tracks to record, but you can  
only record on one track at a time. Since the Advanced Recorder only records on one track at a  
time, only the RIGHT 1 Part is active in the Advanced Recorder. Any other active Parts are  
automatically turned OFF when the ADVANCED RECORDER button is pressed. In addition to

Style Paste  
When you record a Style as part of your song, the Style data is automatically recorded on the Style  
track. This data is unique to the CP, and cannot be used with any other musical instruments.  
Additionally the instrument tracks that are part of the Style cannot be edited individually.  
Style Paste converts any Style data recorded on the Style track into MIDI note and event data and  
places it on separate tracks (Trks 9-16). Once the Style data is converted into actual note data, you  
can view and edit the individual Style tracks as if you had recorded the data yourself. Also your  
song including the Style can now be played back by any other MIDI instrument that reads Standard  
MIDI File (SMF) format song data.

playing back, continue recording new data on that track for a specified number of measures, and  
then automatically stop recording at a specific measure and hear the rest of the track play to the  
end. This tool is very valuable if you wish to record over some misplayed notes in the middle of a  
track, but would like to preserve the music in the measures leading up to, and following, the trouble  
spot.

To use Punch-in recording:  
1) Select Punch In/Out in the Advanced Recorder menu.  
2) Use the L and R buttons to select the options and change their values using the Dial. Select AUTO  
with the R5 button to have the CP automatically handle the punching in/out while you play.  
3) Press the REHEARSAL button (F4, F5) to listen to the song for rehearsal. If you need to adjust mixing  
or if you would like to loop the song, use the MIXER (F2) or LOOP ON/OFF (F6) button.  
4) When you are ready to record, press the REC button and then the PLAY button. The music will start  
immediately from the Start Bar that you have chosen. Once the song reaches the Punch In Bar, any  
notes that you play on the keyboard will be recorded.  
Recording will stop when the song reaches the Punch-Out Bar, but the CP will keep playing back the  
song to the end unless you press the STOP button.  
You can repeat the punch-in/out section by turning the looping on with the F6 button.  
5) Listen to what you have recorded and re-record if necessary.

• If you set the CP to Punch-In at the very first measure of the song, the metronome will  
automatically play a two-measure intro to assist you with the timing. These “ticks” will not be  
recorded as part of the track.  
Punch-In recording using the pedal  
Instead of specifically setting an automatic Punch-In and Punch-Out Bar, you can use the center  
pedal to manually Punch In and Out.  
• You can punch in and out with pedal one time for each pass over the track that you make.  
To use the pedal to Punch-In/Out:  
1) Use the R5 button to select Pedal in the Punch In/Out menu.  
2) Use the L and R buttons to set up other recording options.  
3) Press the REC button to start. The song will start playing.  
4) When the song reaches the bar where you wish to punch in, press the center pedal and play the  
keyboard.  
5) When you reach the bar where you wish to punch out, press the pedal again to stop recording. Notice  
that the song keeps playing to the end (it’s just no longer recording) or until you press STOP.

Quantize  
Quantize automatically shifts the timing of a note. This can be used to correct imperfect timing in  
a performance by shifting notes that were played either too early or too late so they will fall exactly  
on the correct beat. For example, you can accurately align any out of time notes to the nearest 8th-  
or 16th-note beat depending on the type of song you are quantizing. Sometimes quantizing all of  
your notes to exactly the same beat can make your playing sound too stiff. The Advanced Recorder  
quantize function allows you to set a quantize “Range” so only the notes that were very early or late  
are quantized. Notes that were almost perfect are not quantized thus keeping more of the original  
feeling in your music.

• Resolution determines the timing value the quantize function will use to shift the notes you want  
to quantize. For example, setting a quarter note resolution will shift all of the quantized notes to  
the nearest quarter beat. Setting an eighth note resolution will shift all of the quantized notes to  
the nearest eighth beat and so on. In the Advanced Recorder, quantize values are expressed in  
note values and as a number that indicates how many clock beats each note value contains. The  
Advanced Recorder divides each beat in a bar into 96 smaller clock beats. A Quarter note is 96  
clock beats, an eighth note is 48 clock beats, and a sixteenth note is 24 clock beats and so on.  
The quantize resolution range is from quarter notes (96 clocks), to 64th note triplets (4 clocks).

• Range sets up timing “borders” around the Resolution value you specify. Notes within these  
borders will not be quantized and notes outside the borders will be moved to the nearest beat  
specified by the resolution value (Quarter note, Eighth note, etc.). The negative value represents  
the placement of the “border” before the beat, and the positive value represents the placement  
the “border” after the beat. Together, these two “borders” form a timing “range” around the  
specified beat.

Copy  
The Copy function allows you to copy a section or all of the data on a track to another location.  
The destination may be on the same track, or it can be on another track.  
• The destination of the copied data must either be:  
1) A location that already has data in it.  
2) The first blank bar after the end of a track (Bar 1 if the destination track is empty).  
For example, if a track only has 10 bars in it, you cannot copy data onto bar 20. You can, however,  
copy data to bars 1 through 11.

then combine them together on one track. Remember that there can only be one instrument sound  
assigned to each track, so the resulting merged track will play all the combined data using one  
instrument sound. Merge can be useful for making rhythm patterns by first recording different  
drum/ percussion parts using the same drum kit on several tracks for easy editing of each instrument,  
or recording the right and left hand parts of a piano piece and combining them later on one track to  
free up extra tracks for more recording.

Clock Move  
In the Resolution section of this manual we learned that the CP Advanced recorder divides each  
beat in a bar into 96 clock beats, also expressed as a quarter note. Therefore there are 48 clocks per  
eighth note, and 24 clocks per sixteenth note and so on. This relationship holds true regardless of  
the song’s tempo.  
On the CP, you can shift the timing of all notes in a track by shifting the entire track ahead (negative  
values) or behind (positive values) the beat by a certain clock value. Clock move is useful for  
adjusting the overall timing of a track. For example, if a certain sound you recorded responds  
slowly and sounds behind the beat, you could shift the timing of the notes ahead of the beat to  
compensate for the sounds slow response and make its timing feel more natural.

Creating Your Own Styles  
The Concert Performer contains 150 built-in Styles covering a wide  
variety of musical genres. There are two powerful features that  
allow you to edit any of these Styles to better suit your musical  
tastes, or even create your own Style entirely from scratch! These  
are the Conductor and the Style Maker.  
The Conductor allows you to edit the Style data and personalize it  
to your taste.  
The Style Maker allows you to create Styles of your own.  
There are three ways of using this feature: Make a New Style, Edit  
an Existing Style, and Phrase Combination.  
Conductor  
The Conductor is used to edit Preset data.  
Easy Style Edit  
This is an easy way to edit the Style data. The CP built-in styles are comprised  
three different types, Full, Intimate, and Solo Piano Styles. A Full Style  
consists of six instrument tracks called Sections. These are the Drums,  
Bass, and four Accompaniment tracks. The Intimate Styles have four  
Sections, Drum, Bass, And Two Accompaniment tracks. The Solo piano  
Styles have two Accompaniment Tracks (Right and Left hand) and no Drum  
or Bass tracks.  
When you play a Style, each of these sections plays a musical Phrase  
composed for that type of instrument. Each section can play one of four  
different musical phrases, one for each of the four variations within a Style.  
Easy Edit lets you assign which of these four Phrases will be played by each  
section for each of the four variations within the style. This means you can  
mix and match the different phrases for each section to create your own  
unique arrangements. Once you are satisfied with your edits, you can save  
your Easy Style edits to the PRESET STYLE.

• Pressing the SAVE button will save all Styles at one time. You cannot save individually.  
• For Intimate Styles the ACC 3/4 Sections are not used and cannot be edited.  
• For Solo Piano Styles the Drum, Bass, and ACC 3/4 Sections are not used and cannot be edited.  
Resetting the Style  
The CP always remembers the original Preset Style settings. If you wish to restore those factory  
settings before saving your edits, simply press the RESET button in the Conductor.  
• If you would like to revert all Styles back to their original factory settings, after you have pressed  
the SAVE button, use reset Conductor on the Soft Reset screen. See the section titled “Soft  
Reset” on page 126.  
Note:  
Easy Edit doesn’t allow you to edit the Intro, Ending and Fill-ins. However, muting a Section in the  
Style will result in automatic muting of the same Section in the Intro, Ending and Fill-ins. If you  
mute a certain Section, you need to consider what effect it will have on the overall Style.

Making a New Style  
This is the most flexible way to create a new Style.  
You can make a completely new style from scratch or edit an existing style. First, read the explanation  
below about the configuration of a style and understand how a style is made.  
Configuration of a Style  
A complete Style consists of the following patterns:  
Basic pattern  
Fill-in  
Intro Major  
Intro Minor  
Ending Major  
Ending Minor  
4 patterns (Variation 1–4) Max 16 measures  
4 patterns (Fill-In 1–4)  
2 patterns  
1 or 2 measures  
Max 16 measures  
Max 16 measures  
Max 16 measures  
Max 16 measures  
2 patterns  
2 patterns  
2 patterns  
• Each of these patterns in a Full Style is made up of six Sections—Drum, Bass, ACC1, ACC2,  
ACC3 and ACC4. In an Intimate Style there are four Sections—Drum, Bass, ACC1, ACC2. In a  
Solo Piano Style there are two Sections— ACC1, ACC2. You can use up to six sections in a User  
Style but you don’t necessarily have to use all of the sections to create a Style. For example, just  
like the Intimate and Solo Piano Styles you may not need to use some Variations or Sections to  
accomplish your musical idea. These unused sections or variations may be left blank.  
• The different Sections can be of varying bar lengths as long as they stay within the limit. Having  
them all the same length may make the Style easier to use in a song, but you may find that having  
uneven bar lengths among the Sections can create interesting musical results.  
• For simplicity’s sake it is advisable to record your new style in the key of C.  
To create a Style:  
1) Press the ADVANCED RECORDER button. The LCD screen will display the Advanced Recorder menu.  
2) In the Advanced Recorder menu, press the Style Maker button (R4). The LCD screen will display the  
first Style Maker screen.  
3) To make a completely new Style, press the Make New Style button (L1) and use the Dial to select the  
time signature for the style you are going to make. To edit an existing style, press the Edit Existing  
Style button (L3) and use the Dial to select the style you want to edit.

Auto-accompaniment System  
The Concert Performer Auto-Accompaniment System (ACC) analyzes your playing and adjusts the  
note data recorded in the different Phrases in a pattern to match the root key and chord type you  
are playing. The ACC System also shifts the octave for each phrase to keep each section playing  
within its musically useful range. To get the most out of this System, any new Style you create can  
benefit from some fine tuning of these settings.  
When you press the DETAIL SETTINGS button (L5) on the Style Maker Record screen, the Style  
Maker Detail Settings screen will be displayed.  
Accompaniment Type (ACC Type)  
This setting determines how Phrases being played by a particular section in a pattern will be analyzed  
by the Auto-accompaniment (ACC) System. There are Two Accompaniment Types: Chordal and  
Scalic (melodic). Chordal Phrases usually consist of block chords or arppegiated chords. You  
should set this kind Phrase to Chordal. Scalic Phrases usually play melodic phrases that serve to  
add interest to the style as well as provide counter melodies and riffs. Melodic Phrases or Phrases  
that contain chromatic passages should be set to Scalic. Scalic Phrases can also contain chords but  
they will be analyzed differently than chords in a Chordal Phrase. The Bass section is automatically  
set to Scalic since it will rarely if ever play chords.  
The terms Open and Close apply to Chordal Phrases, and refer to how the CP will regulate the  
voicing of a Chordal Phrase. Setting a Section to Open will allow for open-voiced chords, which  
might be good for guitar and string sounds. Setting a Section to Close maintains closed voiced  
chords, which are better suited to piano parts and other chording or comping instruments.  
Range  
This determines the chord inversions that a Chordal Phrase will play.  
The term “range” here has nothing to do with the span of actual chord notes. It selects which note  
in the chord will serve as the basis of the chord inversion.  
HI is the initial setting and is recommended as a starting point. MID plays an inversion based on the  
next lower note in relation to HI, while LO plays an inversion based two-notes lower.  
Crossover  
This determines the point where a Scalic Phrase will be transposed to keep the notes in a musically  
useful range. When notes in a Scalic Phrase fall below the Crossover point you select they will be  
transposed up one octave by the Accompaniment System. For example if you set the Crossover  
P. 82  
Kawai Concert Performer Series Digital Piano  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
point to E, the Phrase would begin to be transposed up one octave whenever you play a chord with  
an E as the root.  
Experiment with the different Chordal and Scalic settings to find the one that works best with each  
Phrase.  
Bass Limit  
This is an option for the Bass section and sets the limit for the lowest note the Bass will play. If a  
note in a Bass Phrase falls below the limit, it will automatically be transposed up an octave.  
To adjust the auto-accompaniment system:  
1) Use the L2-L4 buttons to select the setting you wish to change.  
2) Use the F3-F7 buttons to select the Section.  
3) Use the Dial to select or change a value.  
4) When done, press the BACK button (F1) to go back the previous menu. Then save the Style if necessary.

Making a Style with Phrase Combination  
Phrase Combination is similar to Easy Style Edit in the Conductor. Phrase Combination however,  
lets you not only combine Phrases from within the selected Style but you can also combine Phrases

patterns (Variations).  
• You cannot change the Intro and Ending Phrases. These will remain the same as in your selected  
Style.

Playing Songs from a Floppy Disk  
The Concert Performer’s floppy disk drive provides a convenient  
way to playback songs recorded in the CP’s Internal Format or  
Standard MIDI File (SMF) format. Songs in the CP’s internal format  
typically are ones that you have recorded on your own instrument.  
There are many sources of SMF songs, including disks for sale from  
professional musicians and publishers, songs shared among  
musicians and hobbyists, and Internet sites that feature SMF songs  
available for download.  
If you wish to play a song without any intentions to make permanent  
changes or additional recordings, you can use the CP’s Disk Song  
Play function to load the song very quickly for playback. Using the  
disk drive in this way makes the Concert Performer an enjoyable  
source of entertainment for parties and other social events, as well  
as a great tool for the professional musician or music educator.  
About songs on Floppy Disk  
If you will use a blank disk to store and play your own compositions made on the Concert Performer,  
there isn’t much to worry about. The CP can format the disk (if it isn’t already formatted), and the  
CP’s internal song format remembers everything about your song, including which sounds to use  
with the recorded tracks. However, if you wish to purchase a disk of songs from your music store  
or publisher, play a disk given to you by someone else, or play songs downloaded from the Internet,  
you will need to remember a few simple points:  
• The CP reads only DOS formatted disks, either double-sided double-density (720KB) or high  
density (1.4MB). These are the most commonly used disk formats in both computers and musical  
instruments.  
• The CP recognizes song files written in the Standard MIDI File format as long as they have DOS  
file names ending with “.MID”. There are two types of Standard MIDI File formats, Format 0 and  
1. The CP can read the song data of both formats, however it will only display the lyrics of a song  
written as format 0.  
• Songs that have been composed with the General MIDI (GM) standard will sound fine without  
any additional work, because data in the files will inform the CP as to what sounds to use when  
playing the song. If the song was not composed to the GM standard, you may find it necessary to  
edit the song to assign the correct sounds to the various tracks. Fortunately, almost all  
commercially available MIDI files adhere to the General MIDI standard.

• The CP can also recognize most songs formatted for the PianoDisc player piano system and  
songs formatted for Yamaha’s Disk Orchestra Collection. (Please check with your Kawai dealer  
or distributor for further information).  
Selecting a Song from Disk  
A single floppy disk can store dozens of song files at one time, depending on the length of the songs.  
To select a song:  
1) Put the disk in the Floppy Disk Drive and press the DISK button. In the Disk menu, select Song Play  
(R3). After the CP searches the disk it will display the first ten available songs. If there are more  
than ten songs on the disk, use the SEARCH buttons (F2, F3) to list the additional songs.  
2) Use the L and R buttons to select the song you want to hear. You can also select a song by using the  
Dial.  
DISK  
3) Once your desired song is highlighted, press PLAY/STOP to have the CP load the song and automatically  
start playing. You may also press SELECT (F7) to have the CP load the data and wait for you to start  
it manually.  
4) Press the SONG CHAIN (F4, F5) buttons to have the CP automatically play all songs, one after another.  
5) When your selected song is ready to play, the Disk Song Play screen is displayed. Use the Recorder  
control buttons on the left side of the panel to control the playback of the song.

The part will be heard when you play the song.  
The part has data, but it won’t be heard when you play the song.  
The part has no data to play.  
• Transpose and Octave Shift are available when a song is playing. Octave Shift affects only the  
notes you play “live” on the keyboard, not the music playing from the song file. Transpose can  
be applied separately to the keyboard sound and the song sounds. This lets you play the keyboard  
in your preferred key along with a song recorded in a different (or more difficult) key.  
Use the front panel’s dedicated TRANSPOSE buttons to affect the keyboard sound. Use the  
Song Transpose option (R4 and R5) in the Disk Song Play menu to affect the song data.  
• The Song Transpose option is available only for the song data in Standard MIDI file.  
To make adjustments to the song:  
1) In the Disk Song Play screen, use the R1, R2, R3, and L3 buttons to highlight and assign sounds to  
the CP’s four keyboard Parts. These will be the sounds that you can play live from the keyboard as  
the song is playing. Once a Part is highlighted, press any of the Sound category buttons to select a  
new sound.  
2) Use the F buttons to play and mute any of the song’s instrument parts.  
3) Press the L4 button to use the Mixer to make adjustments to the song’s instrument parts. (See page  
49 for the Mixer function.)  
4) Use the R4 and R5 buttons to transpose the song data.  
5) Use the panel TRANSPOSE and OCTAVE SHIFT buttons to adjust the CP’s keyboard Parts.  
6) Press the PLAY/STOP button to start the song.  
7) To adjust the tempo, press the L2 button and use the Dial to change values.  
8) Press the PLAY/STOP button again to stop the song.

Playing with Concert Magic  
Thanks to Kawai’s innovative CONCERT MAGIC (CM) feature,  
absolutely anyone can sit at the Concert Performer and experience  
the joy of being a real performing musician… even if they have  
never touched a musical instrument in their life!  
As you play a CM song, a handy Note Navigator display helps you  
keep track of where you are in the music, as well as suggesting  
how the rhythm of the song should be tapped out on the keys.  
Many of the CM songs have lyrics that can be displayed as the song  
is being performed. As the song is played, a Bouncing Ball makes  
its way over the lyrics, following the player’s performance and  
encouraging everyone around the instrument to sing along.  
Concert Magic allows you to play a song by simply tapping any key  
on the keyboard. Regardless of what keys you play, the notes that  
are heard will be the correct ones for the song. However, what  
makes this really exciting is that you control the timing of the notes,  
as well as their dynamics. This lets you add a level of expressiveness  
and individuality to the song that makes it real musical performance.  
The Concert Performer can also automatically play any of the  
Concert Magic songs. Listening to the song first can make it easier  
to play. There is also a Chain Play mode, giving you options to  
listen to groups of CM songs.  
Selecting a Concert Magic Song  
The 176 on-board Concert Magic songs are divided into eight groups by song category: Children’s  
Songs, American Classics, Patriotic Songs, Christmas Songs, Hymns, Classics, Special Occasions,  
and International songs.  
• In addition, you can create and play your own Concert Magic songs using the floppy disk drive.  
To select a song:  
CONCERT  
MAGIC  
1) Press the CONCERT MAGIC button. The song selection menu will be displayed.  
2) Ten song titles from the Children’s Songs category will be displayed. The category name is displayed  
at the very top of the screen. If you want to go to another song category, press SEARCH BY CATEGORY  
(F1, F2). You can also search for a specific title by using SEARCH BY NAME (F3, F4), which will list  
all 176 song titles in alphabetical order. You may also use the Dial to scroll through all the titles one  
after another.  
• If you wish to play a CM song from floppy disk, press the DISK button (F6) to see the list of songs  
on disk.  
3) When you have found the song that you want to play, use the L or R buttons to move the box over the  
title. Press the SELECT button (F7) to choose it. The Note Navigator screen will be displayed, and  
you are ready to perform!

Performing a Concert Magic Song  
Playing the Concert Magic song you’ve selected is very easy. Just begin tapping any key on the  
keyboard and the song will play. Concert Magic plays the correct notes of the song, but you must  
provide the rhythm. Being familiar with how a particular song sounds does make it easier, but  
watching the Note Navigator screen can help you play a song that you’ve never heard before.  
The Note Navigator provides an outline of the song’s rhythm that looks a lot like the real music. The  
dots (•) in the display are the notes that you play. The spacing of the notes gives a clue to the timing  
(rhythm) of the notes. Notes that are closer together are played faster; notes that are farther apart  
are played longer. Notes that are evenly spaced are played evenly, and so on.  
Up to four lines of music are displayed. After you’ve played past a note in the song, the dot becomes  
a cross (+) to help you keep track of where you now are. When you get to the bottom of the screen,  
the top lines change to show the next lines of music, as if you had turned the page. When you get to  
the end of the song you will see a double line, and then the song will reset to the beginning.

Concert Magic Song Arrangements  
Concert Magic songs are specially arranged so that they will work well with your key tapping. Each  
of the 176 CM songs falls into one of three categories of musical arrangements of varying difficulty.  
EASY BEAT  
These are the easiest songs to play. To perform them, simply tap any key with a constant beat. You  
can easily see which songs are Easy Beat songs when you look at the Note Navigator. The dots will  
line up at a constant interval in the screen, indicating a constant beat.  
MELODY PLAY  
These songs are also quite easy to play, especially if you are familiar with them. To perform them,  
tap the keys to the rhythm of the melody (as if you were singing).  
SKILLFUL  
These songs are more challenging. To perform them, carefully follow the rhythm as shown in the  
Note Navigator. It may require some practice to successfully play these songs. Even skilled players  
will enjoy the challenge that these songs offer.  
Steady Beat Play  
After you choose a song, you can press the STEADY BEAT button (F3) to play the song by steady  
tapping instead of the original rhythm. You can play any song from any arrangement category by  
tapping steady beats.

Creating a Concert Magic Song  
You can also use Concert Magic to play a song that isn’t one of the 176 built-in titles. You can record  
a new song using the Concert Performer’s Recorder and then save on a floppy disk as a Standard  
MIDI File (SMF). The song can now be selected by pressing the DISK button when you are in the  
Concert Magic song selection screen.  
• You can also record a song for Concert Magic by using an external sequencer. Remember to save  
it to a floppy disk as a Standard MIDI File.  
As you might imagine, getting your song to sound exactly the way you want it to in Concert Magic  
may require a few adjustments to the original arrangement. The most important consideration is to  
keep the musical arrangement as simple as possible. Concert Magic “pauses” the song after every  
note as it waits for you to tap the next key. If there are complex rhythm patterns that have many  
notes per beat, the song may become overly difficult to play. Here are some suggestions for creating  
a Concert Magic song:  
1) Record the melody first using the RIGHT 1 Part in the Easy Recorder (or Track 2 in the Advanced  
Recorder).  
2) Then record the accompaniment using the LEFT Part in the Easy Recorder (or Track 4 in the Advanced  
Recorder).  
3) Arrange the accompaniment so that its notes fall on the same beats as the melody. (This creates a  
Melody Play arrangement.)  
4) If you want to be a little more adventurous, insert a few carefully placed accompaniment notes in  
between melody notes. (This creates a Skillful arrangement.)  
5) If you are recording your song using an external sequencer, record the melody on channel 2 and the  
accompaniment on channel 4.  
6) For best results, you should quantize your parts.  
• Of course, these are merely suggestions. There are no steadfast rules for how to compose your  
CM song. In fact, very rewarding musical experiences may come out of simple trial and error.

4) Use the L, R and F buttons to choose a setting from the sub-menu and use the Dial to change its  
value.  
• If you would like to have the CP remember your settings and have them immediately applied  
every time you turn the instrument on, select Power Up Setting (Page 2-R1) from the System  
menu, and choose “Save Current Settings” (L2).  
• For further details on resetting data, see page 126.

other instruments.  
The master pitch is displayed in Hertz. The range of adjustment is from 427.0 to 453.0 Hz. The  
factory preset value is set to the modern standard A = 440.0 Hz.  
• You can also adjust the tuning for each Part separately. This can be used to simulate a chorus-

Touch Curve  
When playing a piano, the volume of the sound produced increases in direct relation to how hard a  
key is struck. The CP’s Normal Touch curve offers the standard feel of an acoustic piano for practicing  
music. The CP offers five other touch curves ranging from light to heavy.  
Normal  
This is the standard touch of an acoustic piano.  
Light 1, 2  
For those still developing finger strength, such as a child, a louder sound is  
produced even when the piano is played with a soft touch. Light 2 is lighter than  
Light 1.  
Heavy 1, 2  
Off  
Perfect for those with strong fingers. Requires a heavier touch to produce a loud  
volume. Heavy 2 is heavier than Heavy 1.  
A constant volume is produced regardless of how hard the keys are struck. This  
setting is suitable for sounds that have a fixed dynamic range such as Organ or  
Harpsichord.  
• LIGHT and HEAVY do not represent the physical weight of the keys. These are settings that  
affect the sensitivity of the keys, which determines the volume level in response to the key  
movement.

Virtual Voicing  
Voicing is a technique used by piano technicians to mold the character of a piano’s sound. The  
Voicing function lets you change the CP piano’s tone quality by choosing one of four types of voicings.  
Normal  
Produces the normal timbre of an acoustic piano throughout the entire dynamic  
range. This is the default setting.  
Bright  
Mellow  
Dynamic  
Produces a brighter tone throughout the entire dynamic range.  
Produces a mellower tone throughout the entire dynamic range.  
The tone will change dramatically from mellow to bright according to your  
playing.  
• The current voicing selection is global for all the instrument Sounds. You can not have an  
individual setting for each Sound.  
• While voicing is a technique used for optimizing the tone of an acoustic piano, this function can  
be used on all the Sounds on the CP piano.

Resonance  
When the sustain pedal is depressed on an acoustic piano, all the dampers are lifted up allowing the  
strings to vibrate freely. In this condition, when you play a note not only will the strings for the note  
you played vibrate but other strings will vibrate due to sympathetic resonance. The Resonance  
function simulates this phenomenon. You can select from three levels of Resonance.  
Off  
No resonance.

Brief explanation of temperaments  
Temperament Keys  
Limitless modulation of the key became available only after the invention of Equal temperament.  
When you use a temperament other than Equal temperament, you must carefully choose the key to  
play in. For example, if the song you are going to play is written in D major, choose “D” to set the  
temperament key.  
Equal Temperament (Flat)  
This is an “unstretched” equal temperament that divides the scale into twelve equal semitones. This  
produces the same chordal intervals in all twelve keys, and has the advantage of limitless modulation  
of the key. However the tonality of each key becomes less characteristic and no chord is in pure  
consonance.  
Equal Temperament (Stretched)  
This is the most popular piano temperament and is the initial setting. The hearing ability of a  
human is uneven and is not as accurate with high frequency and low frequency as it is with the  
middle range. This temperament’s tuning is stretched to compensate for this so the sound will be  
heard naturally to the ears. This “Stretched” equal temperament is a practical variation of the  
“unstretched” equal temperament which was invented on a mathematical basis.  
Pure Temperament  
This temperament, which eliminates dissonances for thirds and fifths is still popular for choral  
music because of its perfect harmony.  
You need to be aware what key you are playing in with this temperament. Any key modulation will  
result in dissonances. When you play music in a particular key, you need to match the key of the  
temperament as well.  
Pythagorean Temperament  
This temperament, which uses mathematical ratios to eliminate dissonance for fifths, is very limited  
for use with chords, but it produces very characteristic melodic lines.  
Meantone Temperament  
This temperament, which uses a mean between a major and minor whole tone to eliminate dissonance  
for thirds, was devised to eliminate the lack of consonance’s experienced with certain fifths for the  
Pure temperament. It produces chords that are more beautiful than those with the equal temperament.

Werckmeister III, Kirnberger III Temperament  
These two temperaments are placed in between Meantone and Pythagorean. For music with few  
accidentals, this temperament produces the beautiful chords of the mean tone, but as accidentals  
increase, the temperament produces the characteristic melodies of the Pythagorean temperament.  
It is used primarily for classical music written in the Baroque era to revive the original characteristics.  
Arabic  
Some oriental scales, including the Arabic, are characterized for “quarter-tone” which is half of a  
half-tone (50 cents). This makes the music sound very different from traditional western music.  
The CP Piano provides two of the most popular Arabic scales, although you can create more  
variations with the User Temperament function. With Arabic 1, the notes B and E are a quartertone  
lower than the Occidental Scale, while the notes A and E are lower with Arabic 2.  
To create a User Temperament:  
1) On the Temperament screen, press the EDIT button (F7). The User Temperament screen will be  
displayed.  
2) Use the KEY buttons (F3, F4) to select the note to edit.  
3) Use the Dial or TUNE buttons (F5, F6) to change the value. The value is represented in cents above  
or below Equal temperament and ranges from –50 to +50.  
4) Press the SAVE button (F7) to save the User Temperament.

MIDI Menu  
The letters MIDI stand for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, an international standard for  
connecting MIDI equipped synthesizers, drum machines, and other electronic instruments so that  
they can exchange data. Personal computers can also be equipped for MIDI communication.  
Electronic instruments equipped with MIDI can transmit and receive performance data such as,  
notes, what sound to play, pedal information, volume, etc. through the MIDI In/Out/Thru Jacks.  
This data can be recorded with a device like a sequencer or a computer.  
• In this manual we will only discuss the basic MIDI functions that pertain directly to the CP. For  
detailed literature on MIDI, please visit the music department of your local bookstore.  
On page one of the MIDI Settings menu you can configure the following settings.  
Right Transmit Channel  
Sets the MIDI Transmit Channel for the RIGHT hand Parts. You can select MIDI Channels 1-16.  
Left Transmit Channel  
Sets the MIDI Transmit Channel for the LEFT/SPLIT Part. You can select MIDI Channels 1-16.  
Chord Detect Channel  
Sets the MIDI receive channel for chord data being sent to the CP. The Accompaniment System can  
be controlled remotely on this MIDI channel by an external MIDI controller. You can select MIDI  
channels 1-16, OFF, All, or MIDI Accordion. When set to ALL the Accompaniment System will  
respond to any chord data it receives on ANY MIDI channel.  
Local Control ON/OFF  
This determines whether the CP’s sound will be played from the piano’s keyboard (“ON”) or only  
from an external MIDI instrument (“OFF”). Even with local control “off” the CP’s keyboard will  
still transmit to an external MIDI instrument or personal computer.

Clock  
Clock is a data code that a MIDI instrument uses as the reference for its Tempo settings as well as  
Style Start/Stop commands. When it is set to INTERNAL, the CP uses its own built-in clock to  
control tempo settings. When set to EXTERNAL, the CP reads the clock data that it receives via  
MIDI and uses this data to control the Tempo.  
To configure the MIDI Settings:  
1) On page 1 in the System menu, press the MIDI (R5) button. The LCD screen will display the first MIDI  
page.  
2) Use the L and R buttons to select the setting and use the Dial to change the values.

Formatting a Floppy Disk  
Before a floppy disk can be used to save data for the first time, it will need to be formatted. This  
simply means that the disk must be “prepared” to hold data.  
The Concert Performer can read and write to MS-DOS formatted disks. You can purchase pre-  
formatted floppy disks from any computer or office supply store. Floppy disks may also be formatted  
on a PC computer, or the CP can format them itself. There are two types of 3.5” floppy disk in the  
market, 2DD (which can hold 720KB of data) or 2HD (which can hold 1,440KB or 1.44MB of data).  
Both can be used in the exact same fashion with the Concert Performer.  
• You can always re-format a disk at any time. Keep in mind, though, that every time you format a  
disk, all data that is currently on it will be erased. Re-formatting is a good way to completely  
erase a disk that might have been used previously on a computer, since there may be all sorts of  
irrelevant data files left on it otherwise.  
To format a disk:  
1) In the Disk menu, press FORMAT (R2). The Disk Format menu will be displayed.  
2) Insert the floppy disk into the drive.  
3) Use the L2 or L3 buttons to select the size of disk you are using, 2HD or 2DD.  
4) Press EXEC (F7) to proceed. The screen prompts you for confirmation.  
5) Press YES (F7) again to start formatting. Or press NO (F1) to cancel formatting and go back to the  
previous menu.  
• It takes about a minute to format a floppy disk. Once the formatting is complete, the LCD screen  
returns to the Disk menu automatically.

Getting Assistance: Using Help and Demo  
The first time you sit at the Concert Performer, you may feel  
overwhelmed by the wealth of features and options that it offers.  
You will find, though, that if you keep this Owner’s Manual handy  
you can learn to use the different functions as you need them, at  
your own pace. And, there is certainly nothing wrong with only  
using a few basic features, and thoroughly enjoying them. After  
all, the Concert Performer is first and foremost a musical  
instrument, and its whole purpose is to provide you with the tools  
for musical expression and fun no matter your skill level.  
There are times when you might not have the Owner’s Manual at  
your side, and you need an explanation of a button or feature.  
Fortunately, there are built-in Help guides to give you a hand. The  
Help function provides a basic introduction and overview of most  
of the features found in the CP.  
There are also many built-in Demostration songs that really show  
of the musical potential of the Concert Performer. These songs  
were composed by some of the top musicians in the music industry,  
and will undoubtedly impress and inspire you.  
Using the Help  
To get Help, simply press the HELP button to the left of the display. The display will show an  
explanation on the function or feature that you are presently working on. Help is available at any  
time, except when the CP is busy recording your performance or accessing a floppy disk.  
To use the Help:  
1) Press the HELP button. The Help text will be displayd in the LCD screen.  
2) If the text is not what you are looking for, press the INDEX (F1) button to list the HELP topics. Use the  
F1 and F2 buttons to list more topics on the other pages.  
HELP  
3) Use the appropriate L or R button to select the topic, and the text will be displayed.  
4) Use the F3 or F4 button to change the language. English, German, French, and Spanish are available.

The Concert Performer has an amplifier and built-in speakers and together,  
they produce a powerful sound. However, for larger venues or outdoor  
performances, you may need to use additional amplification and speaker  
systems.  
Standard 1/4-inch audio cables can be plugged into the CP’s stereo Line Out  
jacks for this purpose. The CP’s Master Volume will affect the signals levels  
output from the Line Out Jacks.

B. Using the Concert Performer with Your Home Audio System  
A
You can connect audio cables from your stereo system or another source to  
the CP’s Line In jacks. The sound of your stereo playing a tape, CD, or even  
radio will be heard through the CP’s speaker system and mixed in with any  
sounds from the CP itself, enabling you to play along with your favorite songs!  
Connect the CP with your CD player or other device as illustrated.

C. Recording Your Performance with Your Tape Recorder  
Even though the CP115 do not have a CD-R Drive you can still make a recording  
from your CP using the Line out Jacks. Simply connect an external CD-R  
recorder or other recording device (Cassette, Audio software from a personal  
computer etc.) to the CP’s Line Out Jacks. Everything that you hear coming  
out of the CP’s built-in speaker system is also sent out through the Line Out  
Jacks and can be recorded. You can also record anything that is connected to  
the Line In Jacks along with anything being played by the CP.

E. Using The Concert Performer with Your Personal  
Computer  
Your personal computer can be used as a MIDI device as well. In  
order to connect your computer to the CP you will need a MIDI  
interface. Check with your local music store or computer dealer  
for more information about particular models of these interface  
devices. Once you have your computer connected to your Concert  
Performer, you can think of it as a powerful extension of the CP’s  
own music processing abilities. There are hundreds of software  
programs available that you can use to do everything from learn  
the basics of piano playing, to creating film scores for your home  
movies, to composing the next great digital symphony.  
In order for the CP and your computer to properly communicate  
over this USB cable, you first need to set the MIDI-USB switch  
located next to the MIDI jacks to USB. Also your computer must  
have a USB driver installed. Please read the instruction on the  
next page for the details about the USB driver.  
If you don’t wish to purchase a MIDI interface device for your  
computer, the Concert Performer has a special type of interface  
built in to it that may make the connection easier. The CP can be  
connected directly to the back of your computer via a USB cable.

USB  
The Concert Performer can be connected with a personal computer with a USB cable for exchanging MIDI data. You need a USB driver  
installed in your computer.  
[For Windows XP/Me users]  
A standard USB driver is already installed in your computer. You don’t need to install a new driver.  
[For Windows 2000/98SE users]  
You need to install the designated driver in your computer. Visit the KAWAI web site at http://www.kawai.co.jp/english/Download1.html and  
download the program.  
[For Macintosh users]  
Currently we don’t have a USB driver available for Macintosh computers. Please use an appropriate MIDI interface and MIDI cables when  
connecting the Concert Performer to a Macintosh computer.  
NOTE:  
When both MIDI jacks and USB jack are connected, USB has priority.  
When connecting USB cable to the Concert Performer, first connect the USB cable and then turn the power of the Concert Performer on.  
It may take some time to startcommunication when the Concert Performer is connected to the computer via USB.  
When USB communication is unstable with connection via hub, connect the USB cable directly to the USB port of the computer.  
Turning the power of the Concert Performer on/off or disconnecting the USB cable while the following actions may cause unstable  
communication.  
while installing USB driver  
while booting up the computer  
while MIDI application is working  
while communicating with the computer  
while the computer is in energy saver mode  
* If you have any problem with USB communication, consult the instruction manual of your computer and check your computer set up.
