1. QUICK START  
1.1 SETTING UP THE PIANO  
The first thing you’ll need to do before playing the piano is to set up the  
instrument.  
ASSEMBLING THE STAND  
First, you need to assemble the stand unit. Assemble the stand following  
the instructions at the beginning of this manual.  
SUPPLYING AC POWER  
The CN piano is equipped with stereo speakers and an amplifier. You do  
not need any other equipment to play your piano. You can enjoy the CN  
piano wherever AC power is available. Simply connect the power cable  
that comes with the CN piano to an AC outlet.  
Connect the AC power cable to the piano’s power jack and the  
other end of the cable to the AC outlet on the wall.  
1.2 POWER SWITCH  
Press this button to turn on the power.  
Pressing it again will turn off the power.  
Pressing this button while holding down the REC and PLAY/STOP buttons  
will erase all the songs currently stored in the Recorder. (See page 27.)  
1.3 VOLUME SLIDER  
This slider controls the master volume level of the piano’s sound.  
Move this slider to the right to increase the volume and move to  
the left to decrease the volume.  
This slider also controls the headphone’s volume and the LINE output  
level of the piano’s sound.  
1.4 HEADPHONES  
1.5 DEMO SONGS  
For private performances you may want to use the headphones. The  
speakers will be turned off automatically when the headphones are  
plugged in, and the CN piano will only be heard through the headphones.  
The CN piano has two headphones jacks.  
The CN4 has 30 built-in sound demo songs. Each of the demo songs  
presents a musical piece to introduce the different preset sounds.

Press the CONCERT MAGIC and LESSON buttons simultaneously  
and the demo song for the Piano 1 category will start. After the Piano 1  
demo songs are finished playing, the demo songs for another sound  
category will be selected at random.  
If you would like to listen to the demos for a particular category, just  
press the desired SOUND SELECT button while the demo is playing. When  
you press the button, the demo will play the demo songs for the newly  
selected category. Then the demo songs for another category will be  
selected at random. See page 64 for the list of sound demo songs.  
1.6 PLAYING THE PIANO  
Turning on the power.  
You will find the POWER SWITCH at the left end of the front panel. Press  
this button to turn on the power. Pressing it again will turn off the power.  
Adjust the volume level.  
The VOLUME SLIDER controls the volume level of the speakers and the  
headphones. Use this slider to set the volume to a comfortable listening  
level.  
Now try playing the keyboard.  
You will hear the CN’s main piano sound. The name of the sound “Concert  
Grand” is shown in the LCD Display.  
Concert Grand  
The CN piano responds just like a real acoustic piano when you play it. It  
produces a louder sound when you play hard and a softer sound when  
you play soft. The volume level changes in relation to how fast the keys  
are pressed. This system is called “touch sensitivity” on an electronic  
musical instrument. The initial touch sensitivity setting has been adjusted  
to the standard of an acoustic piano. You can however, select a different  
type of touch sensitivity on the CN piano if you are not comfortable with  
the standard setting. For more detail, please read “7.1 Touch” on page  
34.

1.7 PEDALS  
The CN piano has three pedals—just like a grand piano. They are Sustain,  
Soft and Sostenuto.

1.8 PLAYING WITH MORE SOUNDS  
You have already heard the CN’s main piano sound. The CN4 has a total  
of 305 sounds + 9 drum sets, not only different types of piano sounds but  
different instruments as well.  
The different instrument sounds built into CN piano are called “preset  
sounds”.  
All of the preset sounds have been created through advanced digital  
sampling technology achieving as natural and realistic sound as possible.  
Let’s try some of the preset sounds.  
SELECTING ANOTHER PRESET SOUND  
Press the SOUND SELECT button under the name of the  
instrument you would like to listen to. When the button is pressed,  
the LED indicator will be turned on to indicate that this sound is selected.  
The name of the selected preset sound is also shown in the LCD Display.  
The SOUND SELECT buttons are assigned with four preset sounds to  
select. To select the other sounds, press the button repeatedly.  
You can also select any preset sounds by using the VALUE buttons.  
NOTE  
The OTHERS button is assigned with 278 sounds (including 9 drum sets).  
While holding down one of the VALUE buttons, pressing the other VALUE  
button will jump to the next sound category within the OTHERS button.

2. ADVANCED PLAYING  
2.1 VALUE BUTTONS  
These two buttons are used to change the value for certain functions.  
First select the function or option you would like to change the  
value for by pressing the appropriate button(s), then use the  
VALUE buttons to change the value.  
button increases the  
value and “ ” decreases the value.  
These buttons can also be used to select the various sounds. You can  
select all of the preset sounds assigned to the ten SOUND SELECT buttons.  
However, sounds cannot be selected by using the Value buttons when  
you are in DUAL or SPLIT mode.  
2.2 DUAL  
Another feature of the CN piano is the ability to layer two preset sounds  
together to create a more complex sound. For example, piano layered  
with strings, electric piano with choir sound, and so on.  
To layer two sounds, press the SOUND SELECT buttons for both  
sounds simultaneously. The LED indicators for each will be turned on  
to indicate the two sounds you have chosen. You will find the selected  
sound names are also shown in the LCD display.  
Studio Grand  
String Ensemble  
Both sound names are displayed.  
If you want to layer two sounds assigned to the same SOUND SELECT  
button, while pressing the desired SOUND SELECT button use the VALUE  
buttons to select your desired layered sound.  
ABOUT POLYPHONY  
The CN piano is capable of playing up to 96 notes simultaneously (96-  
note polyphony). When playing in dual mode, or when playing the stereo  
piano sound, the polyphony will be reduced by half since the piano has to  
produce two sounds for each note.  
2.3 SPLIT  
SELECTING SPLIT SOUNDS  
The split function divides the keyboard into two sections—upper and  
lower—and lets you play each part with a different sound.

First press the desired SOUND SELECT button to select the upper  
sound. Then, while holding down the SPLIT button, press the  
desired SOUND SELECT button to select the lower sound. The  
LED Indicator for the upper sound will be turned on and the LED for the  
lower sound will start flashing.  
Studio Grand  
/Jazz Organ  
The LCD Display shows you which sounds are  
selected for the upper and lower sections.  
CHANGING THE SPLIT POINT  
The default split point is set between B2 and C3. This point can be moved  
to anywhere on the keyboard.  
Press the desired key while holding down the SPLIT button.  
The LCD Display shows you which key you pressed  
SplitPoint=C2  
The key you pressed becomes the lowermost note for the upper section.  
2.4 BALANCE SLIDER  
You can adjust the volume balance between the two sounds in Dual or  
Split mode. Use the BALANCE slider to adjust the balance. Move  
the slider to the right to increase the volume of the sound shown on the  
top line of the display and decrease the volume of the sound shown on  
the bottom line of the display. The balance changes in the opposite way  
when the slider is moved to the left.  
2.5 EFFECTS/REVERB  
You might have noticed that when you select some of the preset sounds,  
the LED indicator for the EFFECTS or the REVERB is turned on. The  
reason for this is some of the preset sounds are set up with an effect on as  
their initial setting.  
Adding an effect to the sound enhances tonal quality and improves  
acoustical realism. The CN piano is provided with two separate groups  
of effects. The first is reverb and the second contains chorus, flanger,  
delay, tremolo and rotary speaker.  
REVERB  
Reverb adds reverberation to the sound, simulating the acoustic  
environment of a recital room, stage, or concert hall. There are six types  
of reverb available. They are Room 1&2, Stage, Hall 1&2 and Plate.

CHORUS  
Chorus is an effect that simulates the rich character of a vocal choir or  
string ensemble, by layering a slightly detuned version of the sound over  
the original to enrich it. There are five types of chorus available. They  
are Chorus 1-4 and Feedback Chorus.  
FLANGER  
Flanger creates a shifting comb-filter, which adds motion and a “hollow”  
tone to the sound.  
DELAY  
Delay is an effect that adds echoes to the sound. There are three types of  
delay available (delay 1 - 3), each of which has a different length of delay  
between the echoes.  
TREMOLO  
Tremolo modulates the volume of the sound. This is a vibrato type effect.  
ROTARY  
This effect simulates the sound of the Rotary Speaker cabinet commonly  
used with electronic organs. Rotary 1 is normal rotary and Rotary 2 is  
with distortion effect.  
The soft pedal is used to change the speed of the rotor between SLOW  
and FAST.  
TO ADD REVERB  
Press the REVERB button. The LED indicator will be turned on to  
indicate that reverb is in use. Press and hold the REVERB button and the  
currently selected reverb type will be shown in the LCD display.

To change the effect type, use the VALUE buttons.  
To turn off the reverb or effects, press the REVERB or EFFECTS  
button again.  
NOTE  
Any changes you make to the reverb and the effects are stored with the  
preset sound in memory as long as the power is on. When you reselect a  
sound, your chosen reverb and effect settings will be recalled along with  
the preset sound. When the power is turned off the effects will be reset  
to the factory settings unless you use the “User Memory” function to save  
your current reverb and effect settings. For more information about the  
“User Memory” function please see page 43 in this manual.  
2.6 METRONOME/RHYTHM  
Rhythm is one of the most important elements when learning music. It is  
important to practice playing the piano at the correct tempo and with a  
steady rhythm. The CN piano’s metronome is a tool that helps you to  
achieve this by providing a steady beat for you play along with.  
STARTING THE METRONOME  
Press the TEMPO button. You will see the LED indicator turn on and  
hear the metronome begin counting with a steady beat. The LCD display  
shows the tempo in beats per minute.  
TEMPO = 120  
Tempo is displayed in number of beats per minute.  
To change the tempo, use the VALUE buttons to increase or  
decrease the tempo within the range of 10 - 400 beats per minute.  
(20-800 BPM with eighth note rhythms).  
To stop the metronome, press the TEMPO button again.  
CHANGING THE TIME SIGNATURE  
You probably noticed that there are two types of clicks and the louder  
one comes every fourth beat. The metronome is capable of giving you a  
down beat to indicate the beginning of the measure. You are now hearing  
a 4-beat or 4/4 time signature.  
You can select a different time signature, if you want to. There are ten  
different time signatures available on the CN piano—1/4, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4,  
3/8, 6/8, 7/8, 9/8 and 12/8. You can also select one of the 100 built-in rhythm  
styles instead of a simple metronome click.  
12  
KAWAI DIGITAL PIANO CN4

To change the time signature, use the BEAT button.  
Press the BEAT button. You will see the LED indicator turn on and  
hear the metronome begin counting. The LCD display shows the time  
signature and a visual indicator of beats per measure.  
BEAT = 4/4  
The selected time signature is displayed along with  
a visual indicator of beats per measure.  
Use the VALUE buttons to select your desired time signature. You  
will see the time signature currently selected in the LCD display. The  
visual indicator will change to match the selected time signature.  
RHYTHM METRONOME  
You can also select from 100 additional rhythm styles instead of a simple  
metronome click.  
Keep pressing the VALUE buttons to select the desired rhythm  
style number. See page 58 for the rhythm style list.  
8 Beat 1  
The selected Rhythm Style is displayed.  
To stop the metronome, press the BEAT button again.  
You can use either the TEMPO or BEAT button to turn the metronome on  
and off. Choose the appropriate button depending on whether you’re  
adjusting the tempo or changing the time signature.  
ADJUSTING THE METRONOME VOLUME  
The volume level of metronome can be adjusted to any level you like  
independent of the main volume.  
Press the TEMPO and BEAT buttons simultaneously. The LCD  
displays the volume level of the metronome in numbers from 1 (soft) to  
10 (loud). The factory preset is 5.  
VOLUME = 5  
The volume level is displayed.  
Use the VALUE buttons to change value.  
NOTE  
All the metronome settings will be reset to the factory preset values after  
turning off the power unless you use the “User Memory” function to save  
your current metronome settings. For more information about the “User  
Memory” function please see page 43 in this manual.

4. PLAYING WITH CONCERT MAGIC  
The great German composer Johann Sebastian Bach once said, “Playing  
the keyboard is simple. Just strike the right keys at the right time.”  
Many people wish it were that simple. The reality is very different of  
course. However, there is a way to make playing the keyboard very simple.  
You don’t even have to strike the right keys thanks to Concert Magic.  
With CONCERT MAGIC, absolutely anyone can sit at the CN piano and  
make real music… even if you’ve never taken a piano lesson in your life.  
To enjoy performing by yourself, you have only to select your favorite  
piece from 88 preprogrammed songs and tap any of the 88 piano keys  
with a steady rhythm and tempo. CONCERT MAGIC will provide the  
correct melody and accompaniment notes, regardless of which keys you  
press. Anybody, young or old, can enjoy CONCERT MAGIC from the  
moment they sit down at the CN piano.  
Now let’s see how CONCERT MAGIC works.  
4.1 SELECTING A SONG  
The 88 Concert Magic songs are assigned to each of the 88 piano keys.  
The songs are also classified in eight groups by song category such as  
Children’s Songs, American Classics, Christmas Songs.  
All of the song titles are listed on page 65 in the appendices section of this  
manual.  
To select a song, press the key to which your desired song is  
assigned while holding down the CONCERT MAGIC button.  
The LCD display shows you the song number and  
abbreviated song title.  
1
Twinkle Twinkle  
4.2 LISTENING TO THE SONG  
If you have selected a song you are familiar with, you may want to play by  
yourself right away. However you may want to listen to the song first  
before playing it.  
To listen, press the PLAY/STOP button. The CN piano will start playing  
back the selected song. You can adjust the speed or tempo of the song by  
using the VALUE buttons while holding down the TEMPO button. While  
you are listening you can select a different Concert Magic song by using  
the VALUE buttons.  
You probably noticed that the circles in the LCD display turn into smaller  
plus signs as the song is played back. This is called the Note Navigator.  
16  
KAWAI DIGITAL PIANO CN4  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
These circles and plus signs provide a visual guide that shows you when  
to press the next key. The space between the circles and position of the  
circles in the LCD shows you the approximate timing between each key  
press.  
The circles turn into small plus signs as the song is  
playing.  
Twinkle Twinkle  
+ + • •  
The key to performing using Concert Magic is to know the rhythm of the  
song. The Note Navigator provides a rough outline of the songs rhythm,  
that will help you to learn the song’s rhythm and then perform it by  
yourself.  
If you want to listen to a different song, press the key to which  
your desired song is assigned while holding down the CONCERT  
MAGIC button. To listen, press the PLAY/STOP button.  
When you are finished listening to the song, press the PLAY/STOP  
button again to stop.  
4.3 PERFORMING A SONG  
Now you’re ready to play yourself.  
Tap out the rhythm of the selected song on any one of the 88 black  
or white keys on the piano’s keyboard.  
Use the Note Navigator (the circles and plus signs)  
to learn the rhythm of the Concert Magic song.  
• • •  
+ + • •  
As you tap harder, the notes will get louder; as you tap softer, the notes  
will get quieter. As you tap faster, the notes speed up; as you tap slower,  
they will slow down correspondingly, just like regular piano playing.  
Isn’t it fun? You can sound like you’ve been playing for years just by  
pressing one key with one finger.  
Concert Magic is a perfect method for small children to learn music,  
especially to develop a sense of rhythm. For older people who may think  
it is too late to learn the keyboard, Concert Magic is a good first step for  
them to begin with. With Concert Magic, your CN piano can be enjoyed  
by anyone in the family, even those who have never touched a musical  
instrument in their life.

4.4 PART VOLUME BALANCE FOR CONCERT MAGIC  
When used with Concert Magic, the balance slider adjusts the volume  
balance of the melody part and the accompaniment.  
As the slider is moved to the right, the sound of the melody becomes  
louder and the accompaniment becomes softer. The balance  
changes in the opposite way when the slider is moved to the left.  
4.5 CONCERT MAGIC SONG ARRANGEMENT TYPES  
After playing for a while with Concert Magic you may think that it’s too  
easy and there is very little to learn.  
While it is true that some of the songs are very easy to play, even for  
beginners, there are also some which will challenge you and require  
practice to play beautifully. Each of the 88 Concert Magic songs falls into  
one of three different arrangement types depending on the skill level  
required to perform them.  
EASY BEAT  
These are the easiest songs to play. To perform them, simply tap out a  
constant steady beat on any key on the keyboard.  
Look at the following example, “Für Elise”. The Note Navigator indicates  
that you should keep a constant steady rhythm all the way through the  
song. This is the distinguishing character of an Easy Beat song.  
Fur Elise

MELODY PLAY  
These songs are also quite easy to play, especially if they are familiar to  
you. To perform them, tap out the rhythm of the melody on any key on  
the keyboard. Singing along as you tap the rhythm can be helpful.  
Play “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” for example. Follow the melody’s  
rhythm as shown.

When performing fast songs with Concert Magic, it is sometimes easier  
to tap two different keys with two fingers alternating. This allows you to  
play twice as fast as you can using only one finger on one key.  
SKILLFUL  
These songs range in difficulty from moderately difficult to difficult. To  
perform them, tap out the rhythm of both the melody and the  
accompaniment notes on any key on the keyboard, like “Waltz of the  
Flowers” shown below. The Note Navigator will be very helpful with the  
Skillful songs.

It may take some practice to get them just right. A good way to learn  
these songs is to listen to them first, and then try to tap out the rhythms  
that you hear.  
NOTE  
In the song list on page 65, the arrangement type is marked next to each  
song title as “EB” for Easy Beat, “MP” for Melody Play and “SK” for Skillful.

5. RECORDER  
The CN piano’s recorder records your playing much like a tape recorder,  
and it is just as easy to use. The CN piano records a song as digital data  
instead of audio data and stores the song inside the instrument. Because  
the song is stored as digital information you can modify the song when  
you play it back. You can, for example, adjust the tempo without changing  
the pitch or use a different effect setting from one you have recorded.  
Once you understand the recorder, you will find it to be a useful tool for  
both practicing and playing the piano.  
BASICS OF THE RECORDER  
Let’s take a brief look at the recorders features.  
TWO-TRACK THREE-SONG RECORDER  
The CN piano’s recorder is a 2-track 3-song recorder. This means you  
can record up to three different songs, store them in memory, and play  
them back as you like.  
Each song has two separate tracks called “Parts” that can be recorded  
separately. This lets you record for example, the left hand part first on  
one track, then record the right hand part next on the other track while  
listening to the first track.  
When you record or play back a song, you can select which part (track)  
of which song you are going to record or play back. When you are  
recording, selecting the same part again to record will erase any previous  
recordings on that part. Because of this it’s important to remember; when  
recording both parts separately, after recording the first part be sure to  
select the second part to record, otherwise you will end up recording  
over the first part of the song.  
RECORDED INFORMATION  
The CN piano records the following:  
Note information  
Sound selection  
Pedal movements  
Balance settings Set the dual/split balance as desired before you  
start recording. The balance setting and the  
balance changes made during the recording will  
be recorded.  
Transpose. . . . . . When you record in a different key using the  
transpose function, the CN piano will record the  
actual transposed notes you hear, not the notes  
as you play with the keyboard.  
22  
KAWAI DIGITAL PIANO CN4

RECORDING CAPACITY  
The total recording capacity is about 30,000 notes per song, 90,000 notes  
total. Pressing any buttons or pedals is counted as one note.  
When the recorder reaches its maximum capacity, the CN piano will stop  
recording at that point.  
RECORDER AND METRONOME  
When playing back a song with the metronome turned on, the metronome  
always restarts with the down beat.  
5.1 RECORDING (REC BUTTON)  
The REC button is used for recording.  
Press the REC button when you are ready to record. The LED  
indicator will start flashing telling you that the piano is ready to  
record.  
Song1 Part=1  
Record =120  
The LCD Display shows the Song and Part number,  
Bar and Tempo information.  
Now play some music on the piano. The recorder will automatically  
start recording with the first note you play.  
Press the PLAY/STOP button when you are finished recording. The  
piano will stop recording and save your song to memory.  
Saving to memory may take a few moments and during this time the piano  
will not perform any other operations.  
You can start recording by pressing the PLAY/STOP button instead of  
pressing a key. In this way, you can insert a blank bar at the beginning of  
the song.  
If you make a mistake, you can record your piece again. Just repeat the  
same procedure. The second recording will completely erase the first  
one.  
RECORDING ANOTHER SONG  
The CN piano is capable of recording and storing up to three different  
songs. Let’s try recording a second song.  
If you followed the procedure in the previous section you have already  
recorded Song 1, so now let’s record Song 2.

If you want to start recording the second part from the beginning of the  
song, just play the keyboard. You will hear the first part playing back  
while you record the second part.  
If you would like to play back the first part and then start recording the  
second part from a certain point later in the song, press the PLAY/STOP  
button instead of playing the keyboard to start playback of the first part  
and then begin recording the second part from any point you like.  
When you are finished recording, press the PLAY/STOP button  
again.

7. TOUCH, TRANSPOSE AND MENU FUNCTIONS  
7.1 TOUCH  
Touch lets you select a different touch sensitivity for the keyboard from  
the standard touch of an acoustic piano. You can change the sensitivity  
to one of five different settings: Light, Light+, Heavy, Heavy+ and Off.  
Light  
For those still developing finger strength. A louder volume is  
produced even when playing with a soft touch.  
For players with a delicate touch. Requires less striking force  
to achieve a forte note.  
Perfect for those with strong fingers. Requires a heavier touch  
to produce a loud volume.  
Light+  
Heavy  
Heavy+ Requires more striking force to achieve a loud volume.  
Off  
A constant volume is produced regardless of how hard the  
keys are struck. This setting is suitable for sounds that have a  
fixed dynamic range such as Organ and Harpsichord.  
To change from the standard touch, press the TOUCH button. The  
LED indicator above the TOUCH button will be turned on to indicate that  
the piano is now using a different touch setting.  
To select the Touch type, press and hold the TOUCH button. The LCD  
display will show the currently selected touch type.  
The LCD display shows the touch type currently  
selected.  
Touch  
= Light  
Use the VALUE buttons to change the Touch type.  
Press the TOUCH button again to get back to the standard touch  
setting.  
Touch selection is global for all the preset tones. You can not have an  
individual setting for each tone.  
NOTE  
LIGHT and HEAVY do not represent the physical weight of the keys. These  
are settings that affect the sensitivity of the keys, which determines the  
volume level in response to the key movement.  
7.2 TRANSPOSE  
The transpose function lets you raise or lower the piano’s key in half steps.  
This is especially useful when you have learned a song in one key and  
have to play it in another key. The transpose feature allows you to play  
the song in the original key, but hear it in another key.

While still holding the TRANSPOSE button, use the VALUE buttons  
or the keyboard from C3 to C5 to specify the transposition amount.  
The LCD display shows you a number telling you  
Transpose  
= -5 G  
how many half steps up or down you have transposed  
the piano. -5, for example, represents a transposition  
that is 5 half steps lower. “0” indicates no  
transposition.  
The piano can be transposed up to 12 half steps higher or 12 half steps  
lower.  
Pressing TRANSPOSE button again turns the TRANSPOSE  
function off.  
The TRANSPOSE function remembers the current setting as long as the

Layer Octave Shift can be set between -2 to 2.  
5. LAYER DYNAMICS  
In Dual mode sometimes simply adjusting the volume balance between  
the two layered sounds is not enough to create the desired sound character  
if both sounds are very dynamic. Two equally dynamic sounds can be  
difficult to control and play comfortably. The Layer Dynamics function  
allows you to limit the overall dynamic sensitivity of the layered sound to  
create a perfect blend between both sounds in a layer. In addition to  
reducing the volume of the layered sound, limiting the dynamic sensitivity  
of the layered sound also makes the layered sound easier to control in  
relation to the main sound as you play. With this function, you can  
comfortably play as dynamically as you like with the main sound while  
maintaining control of the layered sound.  
After selecting the “Layer Dynamics” function by pressing the  
TOUCH, TRANSPOSE AND MENU BUTTONS

You can select the level of dynamics from 1 to 10. A value of 1 produces  
the greatest reduction in dynamics and a value of 10 produces no change  
in the dynamics. The default value is 10.  
6. DAMPER HOLD  
This determines if the sound such as organ or strings should be held (on)  
or gradually decayed (off) when the damper pedal is depressed.  
After selecting the “Damper Hold” function by pressing the MENU  
buttons, use the VALUE buttons to turn it on and off.  
6 Damper Hold  
= Off  
The LCD display shows the damper hold is off.  
The default setting is off.  
7. TUNING

adjustment is from 427.0 to 453.0 Hz. The factory preset value is set to  
the modern standard A = 440.0 Hz.  
8.TEMPERAMENT  
The CN piano offers not only equal temperament (the modern standard)  
but also immediate access to temperaments popular during the  
Renaissance and Baroque periods. It should be interesting and educational  
to try some of the different temperaments, although the equal temperament  
is dominant today.  
38  
KAWAI DIGITAL PIANO CN4  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
After Selecting the “Temperament” function by pressing the MENU  
buttons, use the VALUE buttons to select your desired  
temperament.  
The LCD display shows the type of temperament  
currently selected.  
8 Temperament  
= Equal(P.only)  
BRIEF EXPLANATION OF TEMPERAMENTS  
EQUAL TEMPERAMENT (PIANO ONLY)  
8 Temperament  
This is the default temperament. If a piano sound is selected the tuning is  
stretched like an acoustic piano (EQUAL TEMPERAMENT). If any other  
type of sound is selected the tuning will be EQUAL (FLAT). An explanation  
of EQUAL TEMPERAMENT and EQUAL TEMPERAMENT (FLAT) is  
provided later in this section.  
= Equal(P.only)  
NOTE  
If a piano sound is used in a layer with any other sound then both sounds  
will use the EQUAL TEMPERAMENT (Stretched) tuning.  
MERSENNE PURE TEMPERAMENT (MAJOR)  
MERSENNE PURE TEMPERAMENT (MINOR)  
8 Temperament  
= Pure(Major)  
This temperament, which eliminates dissonance’s for thirds and fifths is  
still popular for choral music because of its perfect harmony.  
You need to be aware what key you are playing in with this temperament.  
Any key modulation will result in dissonance’s. When you play music in a  
particular key, you need to match the key of the temperament as well.  
When playing in a major key select Pure (Major) and when playing in a  
minor key select Pure (minor).  
8 Temperament  
= Pure(minor)  
PYTHAGOREAN TEMPERAMENT  
8 Temperament  
= Pythagorean  
This temperament, which uses mathematical ratios to eliminate  
dissonance for fifths, is very limited for use with chords, but it produces  
very characteristic melodic lines.  
MEANTONE TEMPERAMENT  
8 Temperament  
= Meantone  
This temperament, which uses a mean between a major and minor whole  
tone to eliminate dissonance for thirds, was devised to eliminate the lack  
of consonance’s experienced with certain fifths for the Mersenne pure  
temperament. It produces chords that are more beautiful than those with  
the equal temperament.

WERCKMEISTER III TEMPERAMENT  
KIRNBERGER III TEMPERAMENT  
8 Temperament  
= Werckmeister  
These two temperaments are placed in between Meantone and  
Pythagorean. For music with few accidentals, this temperament produces  
the beautiful chords of the mean tone, but as accidentals increase, the  
temperament produces the characteristic melodies of the Pythagorean  
temperament. It is used primarily for classical music written in the  
Baroque era to revive the original characteristics.  
8 Temperament  
= Kirnberger  
EQUAL TEMPERAMENT (FLAT)  
8 Temperament  
= Equal(flat)  
This is “unstretched” equal temperament that divides the scale into twelve  
equal semitones. This produces the same chordal intervals in all twelve  
keys, and has the advantage of limitless modulation of the key. However  
the tonality of each key becomes less characteristic and no chord is in  
pure consonance.  
EQUAL TEMPERAMENT  
8 Temperament  
= Equal  
This is the most popular piano temperament. The hearing ability of a  
human is uneven and is not as accurate with high frequency and low  
frequency as it is with the middle range. This temperament’s tuning is  
stretched to compensate for this so the sound will be heard naturally to  
the ears. This “Stretched” equal temperament is a practical variation of  
the “unstretched” equal temperament which was invented on a  
mathematical basis.  
NOTE  
After you have selected the desired temperament, please read the following  
section on selecting a key signature for the temperament before  
continuing.  
9. KEY OF TEMPERAMENT  
Limitless modulation of the key became available only after the invention  
of Equal temperament. When we use a temperament other than Equal  
temperament, we must carefully choose the key signature to play in.  
For example, if the song you are going to play is written in D major, choose  
“D” as the temperament key.  
After selecting the “Key Signature” function by pressing the MENU  
buttons, use the VALUE buttons to set the desired key.  
9 Key of Temper  
= C  
The LCD display shows the currently selected key  
signature .  
Please note that changing the key of the temperament will only change  
the “balance” of the tuning, the pitch of the keyboard remains unchanged.

(“OFF”).  
Even with local control “off” the piano’s keyboard will still transmit to an  
external MIDI instrument or personal computer.

14. MULTI-TIMBRAL MODE  
Multi-timbral mode allows the CN piano to receive data on more than one  
MIDI channel simultaneously. In this mode, the CN piano can play different  
musical parts with different sounds for each part.  
Multi-Timbral On (On1 and On2)  
This is a flexible 16 part multi-timbral setup. You can turn individual  
MIDI channels on and off, and assign any program number to any channel  
in the way you like. The CN piano’s normal program change numbers are  
assigned in On1 and General MIDI program change numbers are assigned  
in On2. (Please see page 48-55 for a list of the program change numbers.)  
Multi-Timbral Off  
This turns off the multi-timbral capability. Only one MIDI channel will be  
active and only the preset sound currently selected will be heard when a  
MIDI signal is received.  
After selecting the “Multi-Timbre” function by pressing the MENU  
buttons, use the VALUE buttons to turn it on and off.  
14 Multi Timbre  
= On2  
The LCD display shows the selected Multi-timbral  
mode.  
15. CHANNEL MUTE  
This determines which MIDI channels are activated to receive MIDI  
information when the Multi-Timbral mode is set to on. You can activate  
or deactivate each of the 16 channels individually.  
Select the “Channel Mute” function by pressing the MENU buttons.  
Keep pressing the MENU buttons to select each of the sixteen  
channels

will not be displayed in the function menu.  
16. MIDI CLOCK  
MIDI Clock is a data code that a MIDI instrument uses as the reference  
for its Tempo setting. When it is set to Internal, the CN piano uses its own  
built-in clock to control tempo settings. When set to External, the CN  
piano reads the clock data it receives via MIDI and uses this data to control  
the Tempo.  
After selecting the “MIDI Clock” function by pressing the MENU  
buttons, use the VALUE buttons to select the desired setting.  
16 MIDI Clock  
= Int.  
The LCD display shows the selected MIDI Clock  
source.  
17. USER MEMORY  
This function allows the CN piano to save the user-definable settings when  
the power is turned off. Once written to the memory, the saved settings  
will be recalled every time you turn the power on.  
The following settings can be saved—Effect settings, Metronome settings  
(tempo, time signature and volume), starting sound, primary sound for  
each sound category and the menu functions 1 through 16 described in  
the previous pages.  
Select the “User Memory” function by pressing the MENU buttons.

8. USING MIDI  
The term MIDI is an acronym for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, an  
international standard for connecting synthesizers, sequencers (MIDI  
recorders) and other electronic instruments so that they can exchange  
performance data.  
The CN4 is equipped with three MIDI jacks for exchanging data: MIDI IN,  
MIDI OUT and MIDI THRU. Each uses a special cable with a DIN  
connector.  
MIDI IN : For receiving note, program change and other data.  
MIDI OUT : For sending note, program change and other data.  
MIDI THRU : For passing along MIDI data received to another MIDI  
instrument without processing.  
MIDI EXAMPLES  
(1) Connection to another MIDI compatible keyboard or sound  
generator module  
When connected as shown in the illustration, data on how the digital piano  
is played (which keys are struck) can be sent to another MIDI instrument.  
Plus, the sound from the CN4 can be layered over the sound of the other  
instrument.  
MIDI IN  
LINE OUT  
MIDI OUT  
LINE IN  
(2) Connection to an external sequencer  
When connected as shown in the illustration, you can record songs played  
on the CN4 with a MIDI recorder, and use the CN4 ’s tones (such as piano,  
harpsichord and vibraphone, etc.) controlled by the CN4’s MULTI-  
TIMBRAL MODE function to create a multi-layer MIDI recording.

9. JACKS  
MIDI JACKS  
These jacks are used to connect external MIDI devices with the CN piano.  
There are three terminals: MIDI IN, MIDI OUT, and MIDI THRU.  
USB JACK  
This jack is used to connect with a personal computer and exchange MIDI  
data.  
LINE OUT JACKS  
These jacks provide stereo output of the piano’s sound to amplifiers, tape  
recorders or similar equipment.  
The audio signal coming through the LINE IN jacks is also routed to these  
jacks. The piano’s sound is mixed with the LINE IN signals.  
The CN piano’s VOLUME slider can control the output level of its own  
sound while it does not control the LINE IN signal.  
LINE IN JACKS  
These jacks are used to connect a pair of stereo outputs from other audio  
equipment or electronic instruments to the piano’s speakers.  
The audio signal coming through these jacks bypasses the piano’s volume  
control. To adjust the volume level, use the output control of the external  
device.  
HEADPHONE JACKS  
There are two jacks for headphones provided at the left end on the bottom  
of the piano.  
You can hear the piano’s sound as well as any audio signal that is coming  
through the LINE IN.

NOTES ABOUT USB  
The CN piano can be connected with a personal computer with a USB cable for exchanging MIDI data. You  
need a USB driver installed in your computer.  
[For Windows XP/Me users]  
A standard USB driver is already installed in your computer. You don’t need to install a new driver.  
[For Windows 2000/98SE users]  
You need to install the designated driver in your computer. Visit the KAWAI web site at http://www.kawai.co.jp/  
english/Download1.html and download the program.  
[For Macintosh users]  
Macintosh OSX automatically recognizes our USB interface. No special driver is needed. Older Macintosh  
OS are not supported by us. If you have an older Macintosh OS, please use an appropriate MIDI interface and  
MIDI cables when connecting the CN piano to a Macintosh computer.  
NOTE:  
When both MIDI jacks and USB jack are connected, USB has priority.  
When connecting USB cable to the CN piano, first connect the USB cable and then turn the power of the CN  
piano on.  
It may take some time to start communication when the CN piano is connected to the computer via USB.  
When USB communication is unstable with connection via hub, connect the USB cable directly to the USB  
port of the computer.  
Turning the power of CN piano on/off or disconnecting the USB cable while the following actions may cause  
unstable communication.  
while installing USB driver  
while booting up the computer  
while MIDI application is working  
while communicating with the computer  
while the computer is in energy saver mode  
* If you have any problem with USB communication, consult the instruction manual of your computer and  
check your computer set up.  
* The USB-MIDI conversion board TID10000934 used in the CN piano is approved to show the USB logo.  
The USB logo can be used only for the product which is approved by USB-IF (USB Implements Forum Inc.)  
test.
