To use headphones with the YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735, connect a pair of headphones to one of the [PHONES] jacks. When headphones are plugged into either of the [PHONES] jacks, the internal speaker system is automatically shut off. Two [PHONES] jacks are provided, allowing two sets of standard stereo headphones to be plugged in. If you are using only one pair of headphones, you can plug them into either of these jacks.

The Damper pedal (right pedal) on the YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735 makes the notes you play have a longer sustain. When a Voice in the Piano group is selected, pressing the damper pedal activates the VRM to accurately recreate the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano’s soundboard and strings. The YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735 also has a Half-pedal function, allowing for half-damper techniques to create subtle nuances in your performance.

If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the Sostenuto pedal (center pedal) while holding the note(s), the notes will sustain as long as the pedal is held. All subsequent notes will not sustain.

The Soft pedal (left pedal) on the YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735 reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played while the pedal is pressed. The soft pedal will not affect notes that are already playing when it is pressed. To apply this effect, play notes after pressing the pedal. This pedal function changes depending on the selected Voice. For example, with “Mellow Organ” it switches Rotary Speaker speed, and with “Vibraphone” it switches Vibrato on and off.

You can connect the headphone jack of an audio player, such as a smartphone or portable audio player, to the YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735’s [AUX IN] jack. Audio playback on the connected device is output from the built-in speakers of this instrument.

The AUX OUT [R] [L/L+R] jacks on the YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735 allow you to connect the Clavinova to external powered speaker systems, for playing in larger venues at higher volumes. The Clavinova’s [MASTER VOLUME] setting will affect the sound that is output from AUX OUT jacks. When the Clavinova’s AUX OUT jacks are connected to an external speaker and you want to turn off the speaker sound of the Clavinova, switch the “Speaker” parameter to off via the “System” menu: “Utility” –> “Speaker”.

The YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735 features a built-in USB [TO DEVICE] terminal. You can connect a USB flash drive or a USB wireless LAN adaptor UD-WL01 (sold separately) to save data you’ve created on the instrument or read data from the connected USB flash drive. The compatible USB devices include USB flash drives and USB hubs. Other USB devices such as a computer keyboard or mouse cannot be used. Only one USB flash drive can be connected to the USB [TO DEVICE] terminal.

To connect a USB device, make sure the connector on the device is appropriate and connected in the proper direction. Avoid connecting or disconnecting the USB device during playback/recording and file management operations or when accessing the USB device, as this may result in “freezing” of the operation or data corruption. When connecting then disconnecting the USB device (and vice versa), wait a few seconds between the two operations.

You should format the USB flash drive only with the YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735. A USB flash drive formatted on another device may not operate properly. The format operation overwrites any previously existing data. Make sure that the USB flash drive you are formatting does not contain important data.

The MIDI [IN], [OUT], [THRU] terminals on the YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735 are used to connect external MIDI devices, such as a synthesizer or a sequencer. Before connecting the instrument to other MIDI devices, turn off the power of all the components. MIDI [IN] receives MIDI messages from another MIDI device. MIDI [OUT] transmits MIDI messages generated on this instrument to another MIDI device. MIDI [THRU] simply relays the MIDI messages received at MIDI IN.

By connecting a computer to the USB [TO HOST] terminal via a USB cable, you can transfer MIDI data or Audio data between the YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735 and the computer. Use an AB type USB cable of less than 3 meters. USB 3.0 cables cannot be used. Make the connection directly without passing through a USB hub.

By connecting a computer or a smart device to the USB [TO HOST] terminal via a USB cable, digital audio data can be transmitted/received. This USB Audio Interface function on the YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735 provides the following advantages:

• Playing back audio data with high sound quality: This gives you direct, clear sound in which the sound quality has less noise and deterioration than that from the [AUX IN] jack.
• Recording performance on the instrument as audio data by using a recording software or a music production software: The recorded audio data can be played back on the computer or smart device.

The Audio Loopback On/Off function on the YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735 allows you to set whether audio sound input from the connected computer or smart device is output to a computer or smart device along with the performance played on the instrument. To output the audio input sound, set the Audio Loopback to “On.” If you intend to record only the sound played on the instrument by using the computer or the smart device, set this to “Off.” If you are using a DAW (digital audio workstation) application with this instrument, set the Audio Loopback function to off. Otherwise, a loud sound may occur, depending on the settings of the computer or the application software.

You can connect the YAMAHA CLAVINOVA CLP-735 to a smart device such as a smartphone or tablet to enjoy the features shown below. The method of connection varies depending on your intended use.

• Using a compatible smart device app: Connect the device to this instrument via Bluetooth or other methods.
• Listening to audio played back on a smart device through the speakers of this instrument (Bluetooth Audio function): Connect the device to this instrument via Bluetooth.
