NOTE

You can specify different sound quality types for the built-in speakers and headphones.

The speaker and headphone sound quality settings you make are retained when you turn off the digital piano power.

When outputting sound to external speakers from the LINE OUT jacks, connect headphones to the digital piano so the headphones sound quality setting is output to the external speakers. A Type 1 or Type 2 headphones sound quality works best in this case.

Using the Pedals

The digital piano is equipped with two pedal jacks, one for a damper pedal and one for a soft/sostenuto pedal. Whether the pedal connected to the SOFT/SOSTENUTO jack operates as a soft pedal or sostenuto pedal depends on what you do when you turn on the digital piano power.

Pedal functions

Damper pedal

Pressing this pedal causes notes to reverberate and to sustain longer.

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.

To use the SOFT/SOSTENUTO pedal as a soft

pedal

Press the POWER button to turn on the digital piano power. Soft pedal is the normal effect of the pedal connected to the SOFT/SOSTENUTO jack.

To use the SOFT/SOSTENUTO pedal as a

sostenuto pedal

While holding down the pedal connected to the SOFT/ SOSTENUTO jack, turn on the digital piano power.

NOTE

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