Using the Footswitch or Foot Controller

(3 [FOOT PEDAL 1/2] jacks)

Two FOOT PEDAL jacks can be used via the following

functions at the initial default setting (factory setting).

• FOOT PEDAL 1 jack

Plug an optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitch into

this jack and use it to switch sustain on and off. The

footswitch functions like the damper pedal on a piano

— press for sustain, release for normal sound.

• FOOT PEDAL 2 jack

Plug an optional Yamaha FC7 foot controller into this

jack and use it to change the volume as you play the

instrument (expression function).

Assigning Specific Functions to Each

Foot Pedal

The functions assigned by default to the connected foot-

switch or foot controller can be changed — for exam-

ple, letting you use the footswitch to start/stop Style

playback, or use the foot controller to produce pitch

bends.
