General Guide CAUTION Make sure that the cover of the digital piano is fully open whenever you are playing on the keyboard. A partially open cover can suddenly close unexpectedly and pinch your fingers.
Connections IMPORTANT! • Whenever connecting external equipment, first set the MAIN VOLUME knob of the digital piano and the volume controller of the external equipment to relatively low volume settings. You can later adjust volume to the level you want after connections are complete. Connecting Headphones Connect commercially available headphones to the digital piano’s PHONES jacks. This cuts off the built-in speakers, which means you can practice even late at night without disturbing others.
Connections Connecting to Audio Equipment 1 Use commercially available cables to connect the external audio equipment to the digital piano’s LINE OUT jacks as shown in Figure 1. R jack output is right channel sound, while L/MONO jack output is left channel sound. It is up to you to purchase connecting cables like the ones shown in the illustration for connection of audio equipment.
Selecting and Using Built-in Tones 3 Tone Type • For information about each tone group, see the tone list on page A-1. Example: ORGAN Your digital piano has the following types of tones built in. Panel Tones 120 GM Tones 128 Drum Sets 10 Press one of the 12 TONE buttons to select the tone group you want. • See the Tone List on page A-1 for more information. Selecting a Tone • Pressing a TONE button causes its indicator lamp to light. Panel tones are divided into 12 groups.
Selecting and Using Built-in Tones Using Tone Effects Reverb: Makes your notes resonate Chorus: Adds more breadth to your notes 1 Press the REVERB CHORUS button to cycle through the effect settings as shown below. Layering Two Tones Use the following procedure to layer two tones, so they sound at the same time. 1 • You can find out the current effect setting by looking at the REVERB and CHORUS indicator lamps. Use the procedure under “Selecting a Tone” on page E-6 to select the main tone.
Selecting and Using Built-in Tones Splitting the Keyboard between Two Tones You can assign different tones to keys on the left side and the right side of the keyboard. Using Layer and Split Together You can use the following procedure to layer two tones on the left side of the keyboard (left main tone + left layered tone), and two other tones on the right side (right main tone + right layered tone).
Selecting and Using Built-in Tones Using the Pedals Using the Metronome The AP-80R comes equipped with the three pedals shown in the illustration below. 1 2 Press the METRONOME button. • This starts the metronome. Rotate the dial to select the number of beats per measure. • Note that you need to select the number of beats per measure with the dial within a few seconds after turning on the metronome. If you don’t, the display will exit the setting screen.
Playing a Rhythm Playing a Rhythm You can select from among 120 built-in rhythms. See the Rhythm List on page A-3 for more information. NOTE • FOR PIANO group rhythms 10 through 19 consist of chord accompaniments only, without any drums or other percussion instruments. These rhythms do not sound unless CASIO CHORD, FINGERED, or FULL RANGE CHORD is selected as the accompaniment mode. With such rhythms, make sure that CASIO CHORD, FINGERED, or FULL RANGE CHORD is selected before you try playing chords.
Playing a Rhythm Using Auto Accompaniment 4 Use a CASIO CHORD fingering to play the first chord within the accompaniment keyboard range. • See “How to Play Chords” on this page for information about how to finger chords with the different chord modes. • Playing a chord will cause the intro pattern for the selected rhythm to play, followed by the Auto Accompaniment rhythm and chord pattern.
Playing a Rhythm Example Chord Type Major Chords Pressing a single accompaniment area key in the CASIO CHORD mode will play the major chord whose name is marked above the key. All of the accompaniment area keys that are marked with the same chord name play exactly the same chord. Minor Chords To play a minor chord, press the accompaniment area key that corresponds to the major chord, while also pressing one other accompaniment area key to the right.
Playing a Rhythm ■ FULL RANGE CHORD The FULL RANGE CHORD mode lets you play a total of 38 different types of chords (the same chords available in the FINGERED mode plus 23 more). FULL RANGE CHORD recognizes the pressing of three or more keyboard keys anywhere on the keyboard as a chord fingering. Anything else (pressing one or two keys, or playing any group of notes that does not form a chord fingering that is recognized by the keyboard) is treated as melody notes.
Playing a Rhythm NOTE • Auto Harmonize is available in the FINGERED and CASIO CHORD accompaniment modes only. • Auto Harmonize is disabled and cannot be used while playing back a tune from the Music Library or a memory card. Auto Harmonize Types Auto Harmonize lets you select from among the following 12 Auto Harmonize types. Type Effect Duet1 Adds close (separated by 3 to 5 degrees) 1-note harmony below the melody note.
Using Registration Memory What is registration memory? Registration memory lets you save up to 16 (4 areas × 4 banks) digital piano setups (tone, rhythm, tempo, etc.) for instant recall whenever you need them. How registration memory organizes its data Registration memory has four banks, and each bank contains four areas. Use the BANK button to select a bank, and the REGISTRATION buttons to select an area.
Using Registration Memory To store a setup in registration memory 1 On the digital piano, configure the tone, rhythm, and other settings you want to save as your setup.

Make sure you do not need the current setup before performing the next step.
Playing Back Built-in Tunes Your digital piano comes with a total of 80 tunes built in. You can play back built-in tunes for your own listening pleasure, or you can use them for practice and even sing-along. Built-in tunes are divided between the two groups described below. • Piano Group: 50 tunes The tunes in this group are piano tunes. • Song Group: 30 tunes The tunes in this group are Auto Accompaniment tunes.
Playing Back Built-in Tunes NOTE • You can also use the dial to change the tempo setting while the current setting is indicated by a value in brackets ([ ]) on the display. Example: [T=120] • The value indicates the number of beats per minutes. • To return the tempo to its initial default setting, press the TEMPO and buttons at the same time. • At their initial default tempo setting, some Piano Group tunes may change tempo part way through.
Playing Back Built-in Tunes Playing All of the Built-in Tunes You can use the following procedure to play through all of the digital piano’s 80 built-in tunes in tune number sequence. 1 Press the PIANO button and SONG/USER button at the same time. • This starts playback of the built-in tunes in tune number sequence, starting from Piano Group tune number 00. 2 To stop playback, press the PLAY/STOP button.
