This is the owner's manual for the Kawai P2500/P1000 digital piano. It begins with important safety instructions and a note that the instrument is intended for household rather than commercial use, then describes the front panel controls (POWER, VOLUME, BRILLIANCE, TRANSPOSE, tone selector switches, EFFECTS and TREMOLO SPEED) and the rear panel jacks (PEDAL, MIDI IN/OUT/THRU, LINE IN and LINE OUT).
The manual then explains basic operation - turning the power on, adjusting volume, choosing a tone color and adding chorus or tremolo - and the NEXT function, which delays a tone change until keys and the damper pedal are released. Advanced features cover the MIDI interface with example setups for a synthesizer and a drum machine, followed by sections on tuning and temperaments and a specifications section.
It shifts the piano's key up or down, so you can play music as written and have the instrument transpose the output to match your voice.
Connect the piano's MIDI OUT jack to the synthesizer's MIDI IN jack and the synthesizer's LINE OUTPUT jack to the piano's LINE IN jack.
No. The piano uses one tone color at a time, and the tone selector switches cannot be pressed simultaneously.
If you press a tone selector switch while playing keys or holding the damper pedal, its LED flashes and the tone changes only after you release everything.
