User manual KAWAI CA330

[. . . ] The example instructs the user to remove the power cord plug from the AC outlet. Read all the instructions before using the product. WARNING - When using electric products, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following. WARNING The product should be connected to an AC outlet of the specified voltage. Indicates a potential hazard that could result in death or serious injury if the product is handled incorrectly. If you are going to use an AC power cord, make sure that its has the correct plug shape and conforms to the specified power voltage. Doing so may cause electric shock. Do not insert or disconnect the power cord plug with wet hands. [. . . ] This parameter controls the amount of time needed for the sound to fade out after the key is released. Note: If the selected zone is set to BOTH, changing the TONE MODIFY parameters affects both internal and external sections. If you want different settings for internal and external sections, enter the edit mode by pressing the MENU button and select internal or external section with the ZONE SELECT button. (See page33 for details. ) 5. 4 MIDI CC# (Control Change) The CA330 can send any MIDI Continuous Controller information to any MIDI Instrument or Device. This powerful feature allows for editing the sounds of an external sound module in Real Time during performance, or for recording Real Time performance edits to a MIDI sequencer. Make sure that the MIDI CC# button in the CONTROL KNOBS section is lit. The CONTROL KNOBS are now active and assigned to the MIDI CC parameters. Use the CONTROL KNOBS to change the MIDI continuous controller information assigned to each knob as described below. Each parameter of the Control Change has an adjustable range from 0 to 127. When the selected zone is set to INT or BOTH, the display shows the parameter names. 30 When the selected zone is set to EXT, the display shows the MIDI CC numbers. The default parameters assigned for each knob are as follows. A: #10 B: #70 C: #76 D: #77 Panpot (PAN) Sustain Level (STN) Vibrato Rate (VbR) Vibrato Depth (VbD) Note: If the selected zone is set to BOTH, changing the MIDI CC# parameters affects both internal and external sections. If you want different settings for internal and external sections, enter the edit mode by pressing the MENU button and select internal or external section with the ZONE SELECT button. (See page33 for details. ) Changing MIDI CC parameter Press and hold the MIDI CC# button. If a zone is set to Ext, only External parameters are available for editing. If a zone is set to Both, both Internal and External parameters are available for editing. 6. 2. 1 Zone Mode This parameter sets the Zone mode. The example shows that the Zone 1 is set to Both mode. 6. 2. 2 Sound (Int only) This parameter determines which internal sound is assigned for the selected zone. 6. 2. 3 Damper Resonance (Int Piano only) When the sustain pedal is depressed, the volume of the whole resonance can be changed to the level you prefer. * The display shows this parameter only when Piano sound is selected. 33 6. 2. 4 String Resonance (Int Piano only) The volume of string resonance can be changed to the level you prefer. <String Resonance> In acoustic pianos, there are strings corresponding to each key. When a key is pressed, strings of other keys in the related harmonic series to the note played resonate. This effect is called "sound resonance", which makes the sound of an acoustic piano full and rich. * The display shows this parameter only when Piano sound is selected. 6. 2. 5 Key-off Effect (Int Piano only) Especially for low-pitched tones, when a key is played strongly and released quickly, there will be the sound of the damper touching the strings immediately before the sound stops. The key-off effect simulates this phenomenon, and allows you to adjust the key-off volume to your taste. * The display shows this parameter only when Piano sound is selected. 6. 2. 6 Voicing (Int Piano only) This parameter re-creates electronically the voicing technique of adjusting the action, hammers and strings on an acoustic piano to change the tone character. This function is a very powerful way to enhance and customize the piano response for each player and each sound. [. . . ] 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 CA330 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 CA330 is approved to show the USB logo.
