*1 Sustain

With piano tones and other sounds that decay, the pedal acts as a damper pedal, with sounds being sustained longer when the pedal is depressed. With organ tones and other continuous sounds, notes played on the keyboard continue to sound until the pedal is released. In either case, the sustain effect is also applied to any notes that are played while the pedal is depressed.

*2 Sostenuto

This effect performs the same way as sustain, except that it is applied only to notes that are sounding already when the pedal is depressed. It does not affect notes that are played after the pedal is depressed.
