Yamaha CP5/CP50 Stage Piano Reference Manual

About this manual

This document serves as a technical reference guide for the Yamaha CP5 and CP50 stage pianos. It complements the Owner's Manual by detailing the instrument's internal architecture rather than focusing on basic setup or operation instructions.

The manual explains the signal flow within the Tone Generator, Song Setting Area, and Controller sections. It provides specific information on how Performances are constructed from various parts (such as Left/Right and Track) and blocks (Voice, Pre-Amplifier, Modulation Effect), including differences between the CP5 and CP50 models.
