Polarity
STANDARD,
REVERSE
Polarity of the pedal
On some pedals, the electrical signal output by the pedal when it is pressed or released is the opposite
of other pedals. If your pedal has an effect opposite of what you expect, set this parameter to “RE-
VERSE.” If you are using a Roland pedal (that has no polarity switch), set this parameter to “STAN-
DARD.”
Hold Pedal
Polarity
Continuous
Hold Pedal
OFF, ON Determines whether the HOLD PEDAL jack will provide support for half-pedaling (ON), or not (OFF).
When this is set to “ON,” you can then connect an optional damper pedal (DP-8, etc.), and employ
pedal work to achieve even finer control in performances in which piano tones are used.
