or

If the pedal is connected to the Damper pedal jack, it can be used as a damper pedal.

If the pedal is connected to the Soft pedal jack, it can be used as a soft pedal.

Damper Pedal

Use this pedal when you want the sound to linger on. While the damper pedal is depressed, the sound from the keyboard continues to linger for an extended period, even when you remove your fingers from the keys. This is the same function as the right-most pedal on an acoustic piano.

Soft Pedal

This pedal softens the sound.

Playing with the soft pedal depressed produces a sound that is not as strong as when otherwise played with the equivalent strength.

This is the same function as the left-most pedal on an acoustic piano.

MEMO

By connecting an additional pedal, you can use both a damper pedal and a soft pedal simultaneously.

To purchase an additional pedal (DP-2/DP-6), please contact the dealer where you purchased the ep-90/70.
