FOOTSWITCH

The PortaTone has a footswitch feature that can be used to control a variety of
functions and operations. By using your foot to conveniently control these func-
tions, you free your hands to concentrate on your performance.

Normally, this is used as a damper pedal, producing pedal-controlled sustain for piano and other
instrument sounds that have a natural decay. It can also be assigned to any of these eleven other
functions:

• EZ Chord increment
• START/STOP
• INTRO/ENDING
• MAIN A
• MAIN B
• Harmony On/Off

1

Call up the Function mode.

Press the FUNCTION button.

2

Select the Footswitch Assign parameter.

While the “FUNCTION” indication is flashing, use the numeric keypad to
select Footswitch Assign (#71).

Function parameter numbers can be selected in the same way as with the
voices (see page 28) — with the numeric keypad, +/- keys, or the FUNC-
TION button.

Since the “FUNCTION”
indication flashes for only a
couple of seconds, make
sure to select the parameter
quickly after step 1 above.

3

Select the desired footswitch function.

After the “FUNCTION” indication stops flashing, use the numeric keypad to
change the setting. (See the “Footswitch Assign Functions” list below for
details.)

Restoring the Default
Value
If you’ve changed the
parameter setting, you can
instantly restore the
default setting (Sustain) by
pressing both +/- buttons
simultaneously.
