Playing back Songs
This instrument can play Preset Songs, Songs you recorded on this instrument, or commercially available
Songs. In addition to listening to these Songs, you can play the keyboard as the Song plays back.
For a general overview of MIDI and how you can effectively use it, refer to “MIDI Basics” (downloadable from the
Yamaha website).
You can play back the following types of Songs in this instrument.
Preset Songs (50 Piano Preset Songs)
Your own recorded Songs (see page 33 for instructions on recording)
Commercially available MIDI Song data: SMF (Standard MIDI File) or ESEQ
The maximum size for playback on this instrument is approx. 550KB per single MIDI
Song.
Commercially available Audio Song data: WAV (file extension = .wav with 44.1
kHz sample rate, 16 bit resolution, stereo, and maximum 80 minutes length)
If you wish to play back the Song in a USB storage device, read “Connecting a USB storage device” (page 51),
then connect a USB storage device to the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal.

MIDI Songs and Audio Songs
There are two kinds of Songs that can be recorded and played back on this instrument: MIDI Songs and Audio
Songs.
A MIDI Song is comprised of your keyboard performance information and is not a recording of the actual sound
itself. The performance information refers to which keys are played, at what timing, and at what strength—just as in
a musical score. Based on the recorded performance information, the tone generator (of the Clavinova, etc.)
outputs the corresponding sound. A MIDI Song uses a small amount of data capacity in comparison to audio song,
and allows you to easily change aspects of the sound, such as Voices used, etc.
An Audio Song is a recording of the performed sound itself. This data is recorded in the same way as that used in
recording cassette tapes, or with voice recorders, etc. This data can be played with a portable music player, etc.,
allowing you to easily let other people hear your performance.

For information on compatible
data formats, refer to page 6.
