Disklavier CD Player DCD1
One Simple Upgrade Brings You a Whole New World of Options!
Now, with a simple plug-in upgrade, you can give your Yamaha Disklavier piano many of the same advanced
capabilities as the exciting new Disklavier Mark III Series! The new DCD1 Disklavier CD Player turns your
Disklavier or other MIDI-equipped Yamaha piano1 into a full-fledged musical entertainment system, ready to
provide a superb selection of piano and ensemble concerts—complete with high-fidelity vocal and
instrumental tracks 2—anytime you like.

Experience outstanding musical
entertainment
With the DCD1, you can listen to
some of the world’s top artists
performing right in your own home.
Access a fast-growing selection of
new audio/MIDI CDs3
The DCD1 is compatible with a full
spectrum of CD performance
software, available from Yamaha
and other producers. Whether your
taste runs to ballads or baroque,
show tunes or sonatas, chamber
music, big bands or popular hits,
you’ll find a wide range of musical
entertainment choices.
Enjoy piano concerts complete
with instruments and vocals2
Audio/MIDI CDs can also provide
synchronized vocal and instrumental audio tracks. This means that
you can listen to some of your
favorite vocalists and groups
playing and singing right along
with your piano, with CD-quality
sound and the convenience of
conventional audio discs.
Even play your favorite music
CDs
You can also use the DCD1 to listen
to your music CDs. Depending on
your piano4, you can listen through
headphones, through the piano’s
internal speakers or your own
amplified speakers. It’s like having
another audio system, and ideal
when you want to play along.
Quick and easy plug-in
installation
The DCD1 is as simple to set up and
use as conventional audio equipment. Just place it wherever it’s
most convenient, then connect a few
cables, select your piano type, plug
it in and turn it on.
Sample Connection Diagram

NOTES:
1. The DCD1 is designed for use mainly with the Yamaha
Disklavier Mark II XG and eariler Disklavier models.
2. Instrumental and vocal reproduction requires certain
components, already equipped on some Yamaha piano
models and connectable as external equipment on others.
• Reproduction of audio tracks requires an amplified
speaker system or headphone capability.
• Reproduction of MIDI instrumental tracks requires
a MIDI tone generator.
3. Software availability may be limited in some countries.
4. Playback functionality varies according to the host piano.
• Yamaha Disklavier pianos reproduce piano tones
on the strings of the piano, requiring headphones or
external audio equipment for ensemble sound reproduction.
• Yamaha Disklavier Silent/MIDIPianos reproduce
either acoustic or digital piano tones, with digital sound
delivered through headphones or external audio equipment.
• Yamaha Silent Series/MIDIPianos reproduce digital
piano and ensemble sound through headphones or
external audio equipment.
• Yamaha GranTouch, Disklavier GranTouch, and
Clavinova pianos reproduce digital piano and ensemble
tones through headphones or their internal amplified
speaker system.
• Reproduction of acoustic piano performance, including
key and pedal movement, is possible only on Yamaha
Disklavier pianos.
