Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha Digital Piano!
We recommend that you read this manual carefully so that you can fully take advantage of the advanced and convenient functions.
We also recommend that you keep this manual in a safe and handy place for future reference.
Main Features
Graded Hammer Effect Keyboard
Thanks to our experience as the world’s leading manufacturer of acoustic pianos, we’ve developed a keyboard with action that’s virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. Just as on a traditional acoustic piano, the keys of the lower notes have a heavier touch, while the higher ones are more responsive to lighter playing. The keyboard’s sensitivity can even be adjusted to match your playing style.
AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling
This digital piano offers a rich and versatile range of sounds, which are created using Yamaha’s proprietary sampling tone-generation system, “AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling.”
AWM (Advanced Wave Memory) is a sampling system that creates sounds close to those of an acoustic instrument by digitally recording the sounds of an instrument and applying high-quality digital filtering technology to the recorded audio samples.
The sound waveform created by an acoustic piano differs depending on the player’s strength of touch, from pianissimo to fortissimo.
AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling can create extremely dynamic nuances by recording samples at various playing strengths. The greater the number of samples used, the greater the resulting expressiveness of the instrument.
The piano voice “Grand Piano 1” features a totally new sample recorded from a full-size concert grand piano. Each note in the sample has been adjusted meticulously so that the digital piano will play only the very best piano sounds.
The piano voices are well-separated sounds featuring a fast attack and a satisfying response.
The “Grand Piano 1” voice features multiple wave samples for different velocities (Dynamic Sampling). That is, different samples are used depending on how fast or strong the player strikes the keys. Therefore, this voice expresses detailed dynamics and sounds much closer to those of a true acoustic piano.
The instrument creates a rich, luxurious sound using “Sustain Sampling,” which is a sample of the soundboard and the resonance of the strings when the damper pedal is pressed. The instrument also features “Key-off Sampling,” which is a sample of the very delicate noises that are caused when keys are released.

Transposition – [TRANSPOSE]
The instrument’s Transpose function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in semitone intervals to facilitate playing in difficult key signatures, and to let 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 instrument will transpose it to the key of F.

Recording Your Performance
Recording Your Performance
The ability to record and play back what you’ve played on the keyboard can be an effective practice aid. You can, for example, record just the left-hand part, and then practice the right-hand part while playing back the recorded left-hand part. Or, since you can record up to two parts separately, you could record the left- and right-hand parts separately, or record both parts of a duet and hear how they sound when played back. The two-part Song Recorder on the instrument allows the recording of up to three songs (U01–U03) or up to a maximum of about 100KB (11,000 notes) in each song on the instrument depending on pedal usage and other factors.
You cannot record the performance to the connected USB storage device directly. The recorded songs are saved to the instrument automatically. If you want to save data to the device, perform the
Save operation (page 31) after stopping recording.
TERMINOLOGY
Recording vs. Saving:
The format of performance data recorded on an MD differs from that of data recorded on the instrument.
An MD records audio signals. The instrument “saves” information regarding note timing, voices, and a tempo value, but not audio signals. When you play back recorded songs, the instrument produces sound based on the saved information. Therefore, recording on the instrument may be more accurately called “saving information.” However, this book often uses the word “recording” because it seems to make more sense.
NOTE
You can record your performance

TERMINOLOGY
SMF (Standard MIDI File):
The SMF (Standard MIDI File) format is one of the most common and widely compatible sequence formats used for storing sequence data. There are two variations:
Format 0 and Format 1.
A large number of MIDI devices are compatible with SMF Format 0, and most commercially available
MIDI sequence data is provided in
SMF Format 0. The SMF format for sequence files allows you to exchange song data between different sequencers. User songs recorded on the instrument are
SMF Format 0.

TERMINOLOGY
Hz (Hertz):
This unit of measurement refers to the frequency of a sound and represents the number of times a sound wave vibrates in a second.
Using the keyboard to set the pitch
You can fine tune the pitch by pressing a key on the keyboard, without having to call up the FUNCTION
display. See the “Panel Controls and Terminals”
(page 8) for the key (note) name.
To tune up (in roughly 0.2Hz steps): Hold the A-1,
B-1, and C0 keys simultaneously and press any key between C3 and B3.
To tune down (in roughly 0.2Hz steps): Hold the A-
1, B-1, and C # 0 keys simultaneously and press any key between C3 and B3.
To restore standard pitch: Hold the A-1, B-1, C0, and C # 0 keys simultaneously and press any key between C3 and B3.
To tune down or up, respectively, in approximately
1 Hz increments: Hold the A-1, B-1 and C0 keys or the A-1, B-1 and C # 0 keys simultaneously and press the [–/NO] or [+/YES] button.
To restore standard pitch: Hold the A-1, B-1 and C0 keys or the A-1, B-1 and C # 0 keys simultaneously and press the [–/NO] [+/YES] buttons simultaneously.
F2. Selecting a Scale
You can select various scales.
Equal Temperament is the most common contemporary piano tuning scale. However, history has known numerous other scales, many of which serve as the basis for certain genres of music. You can experience these tunings with the instrument.
F2.1: Scale
Setting range: 1: Equal Temperament
2: Pure Major
3: Pure Minor
4: Pythagorean
5: Mean Tone
6: Werckmeister
7: Kirnberger
Default setting: 1: Equal Temperament
EQUAL TEMPERAMENT
The pitch range of each octave is divided equally into twelve parts, with each half-step evenly spaced in pitch.
This is the most commonly used tuning in music today.
PURE MAJOR/PURE MINOR
These tunings preserve the pure mathematical intervals of each scale, especially for triad chords (root, third, fifth).
You can hear this best in actual vocal harmonies - such as choirs and a cappella singing.
PYTHAGOREAN
This scale was devised by the famous Greek philosopher and is created from a series of perfect fifths, which are collapsed into a single octave.
The 3rd in this tuning are slightly unstable, but the 4th and
5th are beautiful and suitable for some leads.
MEAN-TONE
This scale was created as an improvement on the
Pythagorean scale, by making the major third interval more
“in tune.” It was especially popular from the 16th century to the 18th century. Handel, among others, used this scale.
WERCKMEISTER/KIRNBERGER
This composite scale combines the Werckmeister and Kirnberger systems, which were themselves improvements on the mean-tone and Pythagorean scales. The main feature of this scale is that each key has its own unique character. The scale was used extensively during the time of Bach and
Beethoven, and even now it is often used when performing period music on the harpsichord.
40 P-155 Owner’s Manual
F2.2: Base Note
If you select a scale other than Equal Temperament, you need to specify the root. (You can also specify the root note with Equal Temperament selected, but it will have no effect. The base note setting is effective for tunings other than the Equal Temperament tuning.)
Setting range: C, C # , D, E b , E, F, F # , G, A b , A, B b , B
Default setting: C
• Root indication example
(F # ) (G)
Followed by a high bar if sharp
(A b )
Followed by a low bar if flat
F3. Dual Functions

Dual.
F3.1: Dual Balance
Setting range: 0–20 (A setting of “10” produces an equal balance between the two Dual voices. Settings below “10” increase the volume of Voice 2 in relation to
Voice 1, and settings above “10” increase the volume of Voice 1 in relation to Voice 2.)
Default setting: Different for each voice combination.
You can set one voice as the main voice, and another voice as a softer, mixed voice.
Detailed Settings – [FUNCTION]
F3.2: Dual Detune
Setting range: -20–0–20 (With positive values, the pitch of Voice 1 is raised and the pitch of Voice 2 is lowered. With negative values, the pitch of Voice 1 is lowered and the pitch of Voice 2 is raised.)
NOTE
The available setting range is wider in the lower range (± 60 cents for A-1), and narrower in the higher range (± 5 cents for C7). (100 cents equal one semitone.)
Default setting: Different for each voice combination.
Detune Voice 1 and Voice 2 for Dual to create a thicker sound.
F3.3: Voice 1 Octave Shift
F3.4: Voice 2 Octave Shift
Setting range: –1, 0, 1
Default setting: Different for each voice combination.
You can shift the pitch up and down in octave steps for
Voice 1 and Voice 2 independently. Depending on which voices you combine in Dual, the combination may sound better if one of the voices is shifted up or down an octave.
F3.5: Voice 1 Effect Depth
F3.6: Voice 2 Effect Depth
Setting range: 0–20
Default setting: Different for each voice combination.
These functions make it possible to individually set the depth of the effect for Voices 1 and 2 for Dual. (The effect depth settings cannot be changed unless the [EFFECT] is
ON. Function must be exited before the [EFFECT] can be turned ON.)
• “Voice 1” and “Voice 2” are explained on page 17.

F7. MIDI Functions
You can make detailed adjustments to the
MIDI settings.
For more information about MIDI, see the
“About MIDI” section (page 48).
F7.1: MIDI Transmit Channel Selection
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and receiving devices must be matched for proper data transfer.
This parameter enables you to specify the channel on which the instrument transmits MIDI data.
Setting range: 1–16, OFF (not transmitted)
Default setting: 1
NOTE
• In Dual, Voice 1 data is transmitted on its specified channel. In
Split, right voice data is transmitted on its specified channel. In
Dual, Voice 2 data is transmitted on the next greater channel number relative to the specified channel. In Split, left voice data is transmitted on the next greater channel number relative to the specified channel. In either case, no data is transmitted if the transmit channel is set to “OFF.”
• Song data is not transmitted via the MIDI connections. However, channels 3–16 of External songs will be transmitted via the MIDI connections depending on the Song Channel Selection setting
F7.2: MIDI Receive Channel Selection
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and receiving devices must be matched for proper data transfer. This parameter enables you to specify the channel on which the instrument receives MIDI data.
Setting range: ALL, 1&2, 1–16
Default setting: ALL
NOTE
• ALL:
“Multi-timbre” Receive. This allows simultaneous reception of different parts on all 16 MIDI channels, enabling the instrument to play multi-channel song data received from a music computer or sequencer.
1&2:
“1&2” Receive. This allows simultaneous reception on channels 1 and 2 only, enabling the instrument to play 1 and 2 channel song data received from a music computer or sequencer.
• Program change and other like channel messages received will not affect the instrument’s panel settings or the notes you play on the keyboard.
F7.3: Local Control ON/OFF
“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the instrument keyboard controls its internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the keyboard. This situation is “Local Control On,” since the internal tone generator is controlled locally by its own keyboard.
Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that the keyboard does not play the internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the
MIDI OUT terminal when notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN terminal.
Setting range: ON/OFF
Default setting: ON
F7.4: Program Change ON/OFF
Normally the instrument will respond to MIDI program change numbers received from an external keyboard or other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly numbered voice to be selected on the corresponding channel
(the keyboard voice does not change). The instrument will normally also send a MIDI program change number whenever one of its voices is selected, causing the correspondingly numbered voice or program to be selected on the external MIDI device if the device is set up to receive and respond to MIDI program change numbers.
This function makes it possible to cancel program change number reception and transmission so that voices can be selected on the instrument without affecting the external MIDI device.
NOTE
For information on program change numbers for each of the instru-
ment’s voices, refer to MIDI Data Format page 62.
Setting range: ON/OFF
Default setting: ON
44 P-155 Owner’s Manual
F7.5: Control Change ON/OFF
Normally the instrument will respond to MIDI control change data received from an external MIDI device or keyboard, causing the voice on the corresponding channel to be affected by pedal and other “control” settings received from the controlling device (the keyboard voice is not affected).
The instrument also transmits MIDI control change information when the pedal or other appropriate controls are operated.
This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission so that, for example, the instrument’s pedal and other controls can be operated without affecting an external MIDI device.
NOTE
For information on control changes that can be used with the instru-
ment, refer to MIDI Data Format on page 62.
Setting range: ON/OFF
Default setting: ON
F7.6: Panel/Status Transmit

Handling the Floppy Disk Drive (FDD) and Floppy Disks (Optional)
Handling the Floppy Disk Drive (FDD) and Floppy Disks (Optional)
An optional floppy disk drive can be installed to this instrument.
The floppy disk drive lets you save original data you’ve created on the instrument to floppy disk, and allows you to load data from floppy disk to the instrument.
Be sure to handle floppy disks and treat the disk drive with care. Follow the important precautions below.
Floppy Disk Compatibility
3.5" 2DD and 2HD type floppy disks can be used.
Formatting a Floppy Disk
If you find that you are unable to use new, blank disks or old disks that have been used with other devices, you may need to format them. For details on how to format a disk,
see pages 35. Keep in mind that all data on the disk will be
lost after formatting. Make sure to check beforehand whether or not the disk contains important data.
NOTE Floppy disks formatted on this device may or may not be useable as is on other devices.
Inserting/Removing Floppy Disks
Inserting a Floppy Disk into the Disk Drive:
Hold the disk so that the label of the disk is facing upward and the sliding shutter is facing forward, towards the disk slot. Carefully insert the disk into the slot, slowly pushing it all the way in until it clicks into place and the eject button pops out.
NOTE Never insert anything but floppy disks into the disk drive.
Other objects may cause damage to the disk drive or floppy disks.
Removing a Floppy Disk
After checking that the instrument is not accessing* the floppy disk (checking that the use lamp on the floppy disk drive is off), firmly press the eject button at the upper right of the disk slot all the way in. When the floppy disk is ejected, pull it out of the drive. If the floppy disk cannot be removed because it is stuck, do not try to force it, but instead try pressing the eject button again, or try reinserting the disk and attempt to eject it again.
* Access of the disk indicates an active operation, such as playback or deletion of data. If a floppy disk is inserted while the power is on, the disk is automatically accessed, since the instrument checks whether the disk has data.
CAUTION
Do not remove the floppy disk or turn off the instrument itself while the disk is being accessed.
Doing so may result not only in loss of data on the disk but also damage to the floppy disk drive.
Be sure to remove the floppy disk from the disk drive before turning off the power. A floppy disk left in the drive for extended periods can easily pick up dust and dirt that can cause data-read and -write errors.
Cleaning the Disk Drive Read/Write Head
Clean the read/write head regularly. This instrument employs a precision magnetic read/write head which, after an extended period of use, will pick up a layer of magnetic particles from the disks used that will eventually cause read and write errors.
To maintain the disk drive in optimum working order
Yamaha recommends that you use a commercially-available dry-type head cleaning disk to clean the head about once a month. Ask your Yamaha dealer about the availability of proper head cleaning disks.
About Floppy Disks
Handle floppy disks with care, and follow these precautions:
• Do not place heavy objects on a disk or bend or apply pressure to the disk in any way. Always keep floppy disks in their protective cases when they are not in use.
• Do not expose the disk to direct sunlight, extremely high or low temperatures, or excessive humidity, dust or liquids.
• Do not open the sliding shutter and touch the exposed surface of the floppy disk inside.
• Do not expose the disk to magnetic fields, such as those produced by televisions, speakers, motors, etc., since magnetic fields can partially or completely erase data on the disk, rendering it unreadable.
• Never use a floppy disk with a deformed shutter or housing.
• Do not attach anything other than the provided labels to a floppy disk. Also make sure that labels are attached in the proper location.
To Protect Your Data (Write-protect Tab):
To prevent accidental erasure of important data, slide the disk’s write-protect tab to the “protect” position (tab open). When saving data, make sure that the disk’s writeprotect tab is set to the “overwrite” position (tab closed).

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Cause and Solution
The instrument does not turn on.
The instrument has not been plugged in properly. Securely insert the female plug into the socket on the instrument, and the male plug into a proper AC outlet
This is normal when electrical current is being applied to the instrument.
A click or pop is heard when the power is turned on or off.
Noise is heard from the speakers or headphones.
The noise may be due to interference caused by the use of a mobile phone in close proximity to the instrument. Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the instrument.
The overall volume is low, or no sound is heard.
• The Master Volume is set too low; set it to an appropriate level using the [MAS-
TER VOLUME] dial.
• Make sure a pair of headphones is not connected to the headphones jack
• Make sure that Local Control (page 44) is ON.
The sustain pedal has no effect.
The pedal cable/plug may not be properly connected. Make sure to securely
insert the pedal plug into the proper jack (page 48).
The type of the foot pedal is reversed.
If this happens, use F5.6 or F5.7 to correct the pedal type (pages 39, 43).
The foot pedal seems to produce the opposite effect. For example, pressing the foot pedal cuts off the sound and releasing it sustains the sounds.
The USB storage device is not recognized by the instrument.
The USB storage device may not be recognized by the instrument depending on the timing of the device connection.
The USB storage device has hung up
(stopped).
The three LEDs of “SAVE TO USB,” “LOAD TO
USER” and “DEL./FORMAT” at the [FILE] button flash simultaneously when a storage device is connected.
The three LEDs of “SAVE TO USB,” “LOAD TO
USER” and “DEL./FORMAT” at the [FILE] button flash simultaneously for five seconds when the USB storage device is operated.
If the [USB] indicator is already lit by pressing of the [SONG SELECT] button, reselect the [USB] indicator after turning the [USB] indicator off by pressing the
[SONG SELECT] button.
If the device is still not recognized, it may not be supported by Yamaha. Only use
devices supported by Yamaha (pages 53).
The USB storage device is not compatible with the instrument.
Only use devices whose compatibility has been confirmed by Yamaha (pages 53).
The USB storage device does not operate properly.
Disconnect the device and connect it to the instrument again.
Disconnect the USB storage device and turn the power of the instrument off. The
USB storage device is not compatible with the instrument.
Only use devices whose compatibility has been confirmed by Yamaha (pages 53).
Disconnect the USB storage device and connect it again.

Voice Descriptions
Stereo-sampled, large-scale strings ensemble with realistic reverb. Try combining this voice with piano in the DUAL.
Spacious strings ensemble with a slow attack. Try combining this voice with a piano or electric piano in the DUAL.
This is the organ’s full coupler sound often associated with
Bach’s “Toccata and Fugue.”
The definitive instrument for baroque music. Since harpsichord uses plucked strings, there is no touch response.
There is, however, a characteristic additional sound when the keys are released.
A hammer-struck keyboard instrument that utilizes an electric pickup that is often heard in funk and soul music.
Its tone is noted for the unique sound produced when the keys are released.
Vibraphone played with relatively soft mallets. The tone becomes more metallic the harder you play.
A big, spacious choir voice. Perfect for creating rich harmonies in slow pieces.
Warm and natural-sounding nylon guitar. Enjoy the quiet ambience of nylon strings.
An upright bass played fingerstyle. Ideal for jazz and Latin music.
Adds a soft ride cymbal to the bass sound. Ideal for walking bass lines in jazz tunes.
Electric bass for a wide range of music styles, jazz, rock, popular, and more.
*1. Dynamic Sampling provides multiple velocity-switched samples to accurately simulate the timbral response of an acoustic instrument.
*2. Contains a very subtle sample that is produced when the keys are released.

• Local on/off, OMNI on/off are not transmitted. (The appropriate note off number is supplied with “All Note Off” transmission).
• When a voice bank MSB/LSB is received, the number is stored in the internal buffer regardless of the received order, then the stored value is used to select the appropriate voice when a program change message is received.
• Poly mode is always active. This mode will not change when the instrument receives MONO/POLY mode message.
