You can change the above digital effect settings after you turn on power.

NOTE

Selecting a tone automatically selects the digital effects currently assigned to it.

Changes you make to digital effect settings are assigned to the currently selected tone only.

Digital effect settings remain in effect until you turn off the digital piano power.

Demo tunes have their own digital effect settings, which are automatically selected whenever you select a demo tune.

Using the Pedals

This digital piano comes equipped with the three pedals shown in the illustration below.

Soft pedal

Damper pedal

Sostenuto pedal

Pedal functions

Damper pedal

Pressing this pedal causes notes to reverberate and to sustain longer. In the case of the PIPE ORGAN and STRINGS tones, pressing this pedal sustains the notes played until you release the pedal.

Soft pedal

Pressing this pedal dampens notes and slightly reduces their volume. Only notes played after the pedal is depressed are affected, and any notes played before the pedal is pressed sound at their normal volume.

Sostenuto pedal

Like the damper pedal, this pedal causes notes to reverberate and to sustain longer. The difference between the two pedals is the timing when they are pressed. With the sostenuto pedal, you press the pedal after depressing the notes you want to sustain. Only the notes whose keyboard keys are depressed when the sostenuto pedal is pressed are affected.

NOTE

The following shows how pedal effects are applied during different types of operations.
