Using the Pedals

As with a grand piano, the CA93/CA63 digital piano

features three pedals: sustain, sostenuto, and soft.

Soft pedal

Sostenuto pedal

Sustain pedal

Sustain pedal (right pedal)

Depressing this pedal sustains the sound after one’s hands have been lifted from the keyboard - greatly enriching the piano sound, while also assisting smooth ‘legato’ passages.

The sustain pedal is capable of responding to half pedaling.

Sostenuto pedal (centre pedal)

Depressing this pedal after playing the keyboard and before releasing the keys, sustains the sound of only those notes that have been played. Any keys that are subsequently played after the sostenuto pedal is depressed will not be sustained.

Piano

Soft pedal (left pedal)

Depressing this pedal softens the sound, reducing its volume.

When the rotary speaker effect is selected, the soft pedal is also used to alternate the speed of the rotary simulation between 'Slow' and 'Fast' effect modes.

Pedal support bolt

If the pedal support bolt does not make contact with the floor, the pedal board may become damaged. Ensure that this bolt is fully extended and supports the pedals firmly.

Caring for the pedals

If the surface of the pedals becomes dirty, clean the pedals using a dry dish-washing sponge. Do not attempt to clean the pedals using rust-removing solvents, abrasives or files.
