want to play certain chords.

Pedal on/off operation may
differ depending on the
particular pedal you’ve

example, pressing down on
one pedal may turn the
selected function on, while
pressing a different make/
brand of pedal may turn the
function off. If necessary,
use this setting to reverse
the operation.
