IMPORTANT
Check your power supply
Make sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the voltage specified on the name plate
on the bottom panel. In some areas a voltage selector may be provided on the bottom panel of
the main keyboard unit near the power cord. Make sure that the voltage selector is set for the
voltage in your area. The voltage selector is set at 240V when the unit is initially shipped. To
change the setting use a "minus" screwdriver to rotate the selector dial so that the correct voltage
appears next to the pointer on the panel.
WICHTIG
Überprüfung der Stromversorgung
Vergewissern Sie sich vor dem Anschließen an das Stromnetz, daß die örtliche Netzspannung den
Betriebsspannungswerten auf dem Typenschild an der Unterseite des Instruments entspricht. In
bestimmten Verkaufsgebieten ist das Instrument mit einem Spannungswähler an der Unterseite
neben der Netzkabeldurchführung ausgestattet. Falls vorhanden, muß der Spannungswähler auf
die örtliche Netzspannung eingestellt werden. Der Spannungswähler wurde werkseitig auf 240 V
voreingestellt. Zum Verstellen drehen Sie den Spannungsregler mit einem Schlitzschraubendreher,
bis der Zeiger auf den korrekten Spannungswert weist.
IMPORTANT
Contrôler la source d'alimentation
Vérifiez que la tension spécifiée sur le panneau inférieur correspond à la tension du secteur. Dans
certaines régions, l'instrument peut être équipé d'un sélecteur de tension situé sur le panneau
inférieur du clavier à proximité du cordon d'alimentation.
Vérifiez que ce sélecteur est bien réglé en fonction de la tension secteur de votre région. Le
sélecteur de tension est réglé sur 240 V au départ d'usine. Pour modifier ce réglage, utilisez un
tournevis à lame plate pour tourner le sélecteur afin de mettre l'indication correspondant à la
tension de votre région vis à vis du repère triangulaire situé sur le panneau.
IMPORTANTE
Verifique la alimentación de corriente
Asegúrese de que tensión de alimentación de CA de su área corresponde con la tensión
especificada en la placa de características del panel inferior. En algunas zonas puede haberse
incorporado un selector de tensión en el panel inferior de la unidad del teclado principal, cerca del
cable de alimentación. Asegúrese de que el selector de tensión esté ajustado a la tensión de su
área. El selector de tensión se ajusta a 240V cuando la unidad sale de fábrica. Para cambiar el
ajuste, emplee un destornillador de cabeza "recta" para girar el selector de modo que aparezca la
tensión correcta al lado del indicador del panel.

PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even
death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions
include, but are not limited to, the following:
●
Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The
required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
●
Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust
which may have accumulated on it.
●
Use only the supplied power cord/plug.
●
Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters
or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage
the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position
where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over it.
●
Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the inter-
nal parts or modify them in any way. The instrument contains no
user-serviceable parts. If it should appear to be malfunctioning,
discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualified
Yamaha service personnel.
●
Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in
damp or wet conditions, or place containers on it containing liq-
uids which might spill into any openings.
●
Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
●
Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit.
A burning item may fall over and cause a fire.
●
If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there
is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any
unusual smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it,
immediately turn off the power switch, disconnect the electric
plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected by qual-
ified Yamaha service personnel.
CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or
others, or damage to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited
to, the following:
●
When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an out-
let, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the
cord can damage it.
●
Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is
not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical
storms.
●
Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a
multiple-connector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality,

●
Read carefully the attached documentation explaining the
assembly process. Failure to assemble the instrument in the
proper sequence might result in damage to the instrument or
even injury.
●
Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or
extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater,
or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel dis-
figuration or damage to the internal components.
●
Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo
equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise,
the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise.
●
Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it
might accidentally fall over.
●
Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.
●
Do not place the instrument against a wall (allow at least 3 cm/
one-inch from the wall), since this can cause inadequate air cir-
culation, and possibly result in the instrument overheating.

●
Before connecting the instrument to other electronic compo-
nents, turn off the power for all components. Before turning the
power on or off for all components, set all volume levels to mini-
mum. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all components at their
minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while
playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.
●
When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry or slightly damp
cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or
chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.

Take care that the key cover does not pinch your fingers, and do
not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the key cover or
instrument.
●
Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the
gaps on the key cover, panel or keyboard. If this happens, turn
off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the
AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified
Yamaha service personnel.
●
Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument,
since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.
●
Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instru-
ment, and do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches
or connectors.
●
Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high
or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent
hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the
ears, consult a physician.
●
Do not place the bench in an unstable position where it might
accidentally fall over.
●
Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench. Using it as a
tool or step-ladder or for any other purpose might result in acci-
dent or injury.
●
Only one person should sit on the bench at a time, in order to
prevent the possibility of accident or injury.
●
If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term
use, tighten them periodically using the included tool.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Selecting Voices
While holding down the [VOICE] button, press one of the C1–A1 keys to select and
start the corresponding voice.
Then, when you start playing, adjust the [MASTER VOLUME] control to the most com-
fortable listening level.
Using the Pedals
Damper (Right) Pedal
The damper pedal functions in the same way as a
damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the
damper pedal is pressed, notes sustain longer.
Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any
sustained notes.
Procedure
TIP
To understand the characteris-
tics of various voices, listen to
demo songs for each voice
(page 15).
TERMINOLOGY
Voice:
On the CLP-115, a voice means
a “tone” or “tonal color.”
NOTE
Selecting a voice automatically
engages the best-suited reverb
type and depth (page 18) for
that particular voice.
KeyVoice Name Description

D1 E.Piano 1 An electronic piano sound created by FM synthesis. Good for popu-
lar music.
D
1 E.Piano 2
The sound of an electric piano using hammer-struck metallic “tines.” Soft
tone when played lightly, and an aggressive tone when played hard.
E1 Harpsichord 1 The definitive instrument for baroque music. Since harpsichord uses
plucked strings, there is no touch response.
F1 Harpsichord 2 Mixes the same voice an octave higher for a more brilliant tone.
F
1 Vibraphone Vibraphone played with relatively soft mallets. It has a tremolo effect
that is typical for vibraphone.

Sostenuto (Center) Pedal
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and
press the sostenuto pedal while the note(s) are
held, those notes will sustain as long as you hold
the pedal (as if the damper pedal had been pressed)
but all subsequently played notes will not be sus-
tained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord,
for example, while other notes are played “stac-
cato.”
Soft (Left) Pedal
The soft pedal 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.
Adding Variations to the Sound – Reverb
This control enables you to select various digital reverb effects that add extra depth and expression
to the sound to create a realistic acoustic ambience.
When you select a reverb, the reverb is automatically turned on.
While holding down the [VOICE] button, press one of the C2–E2 keys to select a reverb
type.
Adjusting Reverb Depth
Adjust the reverb depth for the selected voice by pressing one of the C3–G
4 keys while
holding down the [VOICE] button. The depth range is from 0 through 20.
When you press the sostenuto
pedal here while holding the note,
the note will sustain as long as you
hold the pedal.
Procedure
KeyReverb Type Description
C2 Room This setting adds a continuous reverb effect to the sound, similar to
the acoustic reverberation you would hear in a room.
C
2 Hall1 For a “bigger” reverb sound, use the HALL 1 setting. This effect sim-
ulates the natural reverberation of a small-size concert hall.
D2 Hall2 For a truly spacious reverb sound, use the HALL 2 setting. This effect
simulates the natural reverberation of a large concert hall.
D
2 Stage Simulates the reverb of a stage environment.
E2 Off No effect is applied.

Combining Two Voices (Dual mode)
You can play two voices simultaneously across the entire range of the keyboard. In this way, you
can simulate a melody duet or combine two similar voices to create a thicker sound.
1. Engage Dual mode.
While holding down the [VOICE] button, press two of the C1–A1 keys at simul-
taneously (or press one key while holding another).
Refer to the voice list on page 17 for available voices.
According to the voice priority shown in the voice list (page 17), the voice
assigned to the lower keyboard will be designated as Voice 1 (the other voice will
be designated as Voice 2).
You can make the following settings only in Dual mode:
Setting the Octave
You can shift the pitch up and down in octave steps for Voice 1 and Voice 2 inde-
pendently. Depending on which voices you combine in Dual mode, the combi-
nation may sound better if one of the voices is shifted up or down an octave.
While holding down the [VOICE] button, press one of the C5–F5 keys.
Setting the Balance
You can set one voice as the main voice, and another voice as a softer, mixed voice.
While holding down the [VOICE] button, press one of the F
5–F
6 keys.
A setting of “0” produces an equal balance between the two Dual mode voices.
Settings below “0” increases the volume of Voice 2 in relation to Voice 1, and set-
tings above “0” increases the volume of Voice 1 in relation to Voice 2.
2. Exit Dual mode and return to normal play mode.
While holding down the [VOICE] button, press one of the C1–A1 keys.
Procedure
NOTE
You cannot assign the same
voice to Voice 1 and Voice 2
simultaneously in Dual mode.
TIP
Reverb in Dual Mode
The reverb type assigned to
Voice 1 will take priority over the
other. (If the reverb is set to
OFF, Voice 2 reverb type will be
in effect.) Reverb depth setting
(
page 18
) will be applied only to
Voice 1.

Transposition
The CLP-115’s Transpose function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or
down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of six semitones, and lets you easily match the pitch
of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instruments.
For example, if you set the transposition amount to “5,” playing key C produces pitch F. In this way,
you can play a song as though it were in C major, and the CLP-115 will transpose it to the key of F.
While holding down the A-1 and C
0 keys, press one of the F
2–F
3 keys to set the
desired amount of transposition.
Pressing the
C3 key produces normal keyboard pitch. Pressing the key to the left of C3
(=B2) transposes the pitch of the keyboard down a semitone, the next key to the left
(=B
2) transposes down a whole tone (two semitones), etc., down to the F
2 key, which
transposes down six semitones. Upward transposition is accomplished in the same way
using the keys to the right of C3, up to F
3, which transposes up six semitones.
Fine-tuning the Pitch
You can fine-tune the pitch of the entire instrument. This function is useful when you play the CLP-
115 along with other instruments or CD music.
To tune up (in about 0.2Hz steps):
Hold down the A-1 and
B-1
keys simultaneously and press any key between C3 and B3.
To tune down (in about 0.2Hz steps):
Hold down the A-1 and
A
-1
keys simultaneously and press any key between C3 and
B3.
To restore standard pitch:
Hold down the A-1, A
-1 and B-1 simultaneously and press any key between C3 and B3.
Setting range: 427.0-453.0 Hz
Standard pitch: 440.0 Hz
