6 Using the Pedal (footswitch) 
or Foot Controller (AUX 
PEDAL jack)
By connecting an optional Foot Controller (such as the 
FC7) to the AUX PEDAL jack, you can control any one of 
a variety of important functions with your foot — such as 
dynamically adjusting the volume as you play (page 142).
By connecting a Foot Switch (the FC4 or FC5) to this jack, 
you can replicate the function of some panel buttons, 
doing things like starting and stopping accompaniment.
7 Connecting external MIDI 
devices (MIDI terminals)
Use the built-in MIDI terminals and standard MIDI cables 
to connect external MIDI devices. For more information 
about MIDI connections, see “What You Can Do With 
MIDI” on page 161.
The MIDI terminals cannot be used when the USB 
terminal is connected to a computer and active.
MIDI IN........... Receives MIDI messages from an 
external MIDI device
MIDI OUT ....... Sends out MIDI messages generated by 
the Clavinova
MIDI THRU ..... Simply relays the MIDI messages 
received at MIDI IN
For a general overview of MIDI and how you can 
effectively use it, refer to the following sections:
• What’s MIDI? (page 159)
• What You Can Do With MIDI (page 161)
• MIDI functions (page 148)
8 Connecting a computer (USB 
terminal, MIDI terminal)
Connecting your CVP-210/208 to a computer allows you 
to transfer data back and forth between the two and take 
advantage of the powerful and versatile music software 
available. You can connect the devices in one of two 
ways:
 Using the USB terminal
 Using the MIDI terminals
The MIDI terminals cannot be used when the USB 
terminal is in use.
An appropriate MIDI application for your computer 
platform is required.
For details about the necessary MIDI settings for computer 
and sequence software you are using, refer to the relevant 
owner’s manuals.
Make sure to connect or disconnect the pedal only when the power 
is turned off. 
        CAUTION
• Never use MIDI cables longer than 15 meters.
“The Clavinova-Computer Connection,” is a 
supplementary guidebook that describes, for 
beginners, what you can do with your Clavinova and 
a personal computer and how to set up a Clavinova-
Computer system (the manual is not written for any 
specific models). The document is available as a PDF 
file (in English) at the following Internet address:
