Introduction
When you’ve finished assembling the stand, please read the section
“Getting Ready to Play” and make the correct preparations for
turning on the power.
This manual explains what you need to know to take full advantage
of the C-230, divided into a Basic Operation section and an
Advanced Operation section.
In order to present information as concisely as possible, this manual
uses the following conventions.
• Text enclosed in square brackets [ ] indicates the name of a
button (or knob); e.g., “the [8’I] button.”
• Text preceded by a symbol such as or an asterisk (*) are
warnings. Please be sure to read these.
• Pages to which you can refer to for further information are
indicated like this: (p. **)

Reproduces the beautiful sound of the
classic organ, harpsichord, fortepiano, and
other instruments
Grand, glorious sound is the hallmark of the classic organ.
Providing a rich and spacious ensemble sound complemented
by crystal-clear definition, the C-230 will take you to new
musical heights, while sustaining the tradition of quality,
craftsmanship and innovation.
The sound-producing mechanism of the harpsichord, the sound
of the key release, and the resonance of the sounding board
have been carefully analyzed, and digital technology is used to
reproduce faithfully even the sound of the plectrum contacting
the string when a key is released. You’ll be able to enjoy
beautiful and realistic harpsichord sound.
The fortepiano, the precursor of the piano as we know it today,
produces its sounds via its strings that are struck by hammers
operated by a keyboard. The fortepiano is built entirely of
wood, the strings are struck by hammers covered in hide,
producing a metallic and brilliant sound. It enabled artists to
pave new ways and therefore explore new possibilities of
expression.
In addition, there are 18 “Others” sounds that can be used either
in isolation or together with the organ section for a richer
sound.
■
Five temperaments to support historically
correct tuning
In addition to equal temperament, you can choose from
Werckmeister, Kirnberger, Vallotti, and Meantone, giving you
five temperaments that can be easily selected by pressing a
single button.
There’s also a Transpose function, which makes it easy to
transpose the pitch for additional ways to vary your
performance.
■
No maintenance and easy pitch changes
Not only will you never need to replace the plectrums or
strings, you’ll also never need to tune this instrument.
Moreover, the C-230 is not affected by vibration or changes in
humidity or temperature. You’ll always be performing with
precisely accurate pitches guaranteed by digital technology.
It’s also easy to adjust the tuning to match other instruments.
You can furthermore use a single button to easily switch to
Baroque pitch (A= 415Hz) or Versailles pitch (A= 392 Hz) or the
default tuning (A= 440Hz).
■
Reverb that enhances the rich acoustics of
chamber music
The built-in digital reverb lets you choose the reverberation of a
variety of environments, ranging from a small room to a large
hall. You can perform using acoustics that are appropriate for
the space you are in.
■
Adjust the volume as appropriate for your
situation
Whether you’re at home, in a small hall, or in a large hall, you
can adjust the volume as appropriate for your situation or the
ensemble with whom you’re performing. You can also use
headphones, so you’ll feel free to practice at any time.
■
Compact form that encompasses both
tradition and functionality
While reflecting the historical tradition of the classic organ, the
harpsichord, and the fortepiano, and other sounds, the C-230
provides the advantage of light weight and compact form. Since
the main body can be detached from the stand, transportation
and setup are easy.
■
Four different classical sections in one
instrument
The C-230 comes with four sections for various types of classical
music: “Organ” (Organ Bass + Classic Organ), “Harpsichord”,
“Fortepiano” and “Others”.
■
Other highlights
Other highlights include satellite speakers for an enhanced
spatial sensation, a highly intuitive user interface, an elegant
finish, and an self-contained solution that includes both the
stand and matching decorative elements.
