Touch Response  
The touch response feature of this digital piano causes the  
volume of the tones and the sound of the tones themselves to  
change slightly in accordance with how much pressure you  
apply to the keyboard, just like with an acoustic piano. Touch  
response affects the HARPSICHORD tone only slightly,  
because the original musical instrument normally produces  
the same sound, no matter how much pressure is applied.  
To toggle digital effects on and off  
1 While holding down the CONTROL button, press  
Digitally Sampled Tones

The tones of this digital piano are produced using digitally  
recorded samples of actual musical instruments. Not all of  
the instruments, however, can produce tones across the entire  
range played by this digital piano (A0 through C8). In such a  
case, digital recordings are used for the range that actually  
can be produced by the original instrument, and synthesized  
tones are used for notes that cannot be produced naturally.  
Because of this, you may notice very slight differences  
between natural notes and synthesized notes in sound quality  
and in results produced when using effects. These differences  
are normal and do not indicate malfunction.

Using the Memory  
This section describes how to record keyboard play to  
memory and playback data from memory.  
Recording  
In addition to recording notes as they are played on the  
keyboard, you can also record to one track while playing back  
from the other track. The following procedures cover each of  
these operations.  
About the Memory

IMPORTANT!  
If the data recorded in a single track uses up all the  
available Song Memory capacity, you will not be able to  
record anything in the other track.  
Recording new data to a track automatically deletes any  
data previously stored in that track.  
Turning off power while a record operation is in progress  
deletes anything recorded up to that point.  
CASIO shall not be held responsible for any losses by  
you or any third party due to loss of data caused by  
malfunction or repair of this digital piano, or by battery  
replacement.

The letters MIDI stand for Musical Instrument Digital  
Interface, which is the name of a worldwide standard for  
digital signals and connectors that makes it possible to  
exchange musical data between musical instruments and  
computers (machines) produced by different manufacturers.  
Send Channel  
Use this setting to specify one of the MIDI channels (1 through

Local Control  
This setting controls whether or not power is cut off internally  
from the digital pianos keyboard and sound source. Turning  
off Local Control cuts off power to the keyboard and source,  
which means that the digital piano does not produce any  
sound when played. This comes in handy when you want to  
turn off the digital pianos keyboard and use its auto  
accompaniment feature to accompany an external sequencer  
or other device.
