Assigning pedal functions
7.Pedal 1 Function
8.Pedal 2 Function
When a foot pedal is connected to the Pedal 1 or Pedal 2 jack, it can perform a number of different functions. These screens are used to select the function of your choice for each pedal respectively. Each jack can accept either a switch type pedal or a continuous type, (volume), pedal. Whenever a pedal is inserted into one of the available jacks, the instrument performs an
IF A SWITCH TYPE PEDAL HAS BEEN CONNECTED;
OFF | The pedal has no function. |
DAMPER | The pedal functions like the “right pedal” of a piano - providing a sustain effect to |
| the notes being played. |

| notes which were being held down while the pedal was pressed. |

VOLUME | The pedal controls the overall volume of the assigned sound with a range of 0 - 127. |
EXPRESSION | The pedal controls the overall volume of the assigned sound but the maximum level |

| from 0 to 75. |

11.Damper Assign
Using these functions, you can select which of the selected sounds the pedals will affect. In each menu you can assign the pedal to Sound 1, Sound 2 or Sound 1 & 2. For example, if you mixed Piano and Strings and you wanted the damper pedal to sustain the piano but not to affect the strings, you would set the DAMPER ASSIGN screen to “Sound 1”.
