Assignable Pedal Functions
VOLUME* Allows you to use a foot controller to control the volume. This function is available only
for the pedal connected to the instrument’s [AUX PEDAL] jack.
SUSTAIN Allows you to use a pedal to control the sustain. When you press and hold the pedal,
all notes played on the keyboard have a longer sustain. Releasing the pedal immedi-
ately stops (damps) any sustained notes.
SOSTENUTO Allows if you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the pedal while holding
the note(s), the notes will sustain as long as the pedal is held. However, all subsequent
notes will not sustain. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while
other notes are played staccato.
SOFT Allows you to use a pedal to control the Soft effect. Pressing this pedal reduces the vol-
ume and changes the timbre of the notes you play. This is effective only for certain
appropriate Voices.
GLIDE When the pedal is pressed, the pitch changes, and then returns to normal pitch when
the pedal is released.
PORTAMENTO The portamento effect (a smooth slide between notes) can be produced while the pedal
is pressed. Portamento is produced when notes are played legato style (i.e., a note is
played while the preceding note is still held). Portamento Time can also be adjusted
from the Mixing Console (page 82). This function does not affect certain Natural Voices,
which would not sound appropriately with this function.
PITCH BEND* Allows you to bend the pitch of notes up or down by using the pedal. This can only be
set to the right pedal or the pedal connected to the instrument’s [AUX PEDAL] jack.
MODULATION* Applies a vibrato effect to notes played on the keyboard. The depth of the effect
increases while pedal is pressed. This can only be set to the right pedal or the pedal
connected to the instrument’s [AUX PEDAL] jack.
DSP VARIATION Switches Voice Effect DSP VARIATION on and off.
VIBE ROTOR ON/OFF Switches the VIBRATE SW parameter on and off when the VIBE VIBRATE effect type is
selected.
