Setting the DDE (Dynamic Damper Effect)

The DDE (Dynamic Damper Effect) recreates the subtle resonances that occur when you depress the damper

pedal on an acoustic piano. You can set the DDE to suit your preferences.

Operation

Setting method

 

 

Turn the DDE off

Hold down the A-1, A#-1, and B-1 keys and press C6.

 

 

Turn the DDE on (5 levels)

Hold down the A-1, A#-1, and B-1 keys and press D6, E6, F6, G6 or A6.

 

(A6 is the deepest DDE setting. The default setting is E6)

 

 

The DDE setting does not change when you turn the power off.

Note

Even when the DDE is turned off, the sound continues as if you had pressed the damper pedal, but without any resonating effect.

Returning Settings to Their Default Configuration (Reset All)

You can reset all settings to their default state.

Hold down the A-1, A#-1, and B-1 keys and press C7, the highest key on the keyboard. This returns voice variation, brilliance, reverb type, pitch, and DDE to their default settings.
