t4PGU pedal

The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played while the pedal is pressed. The soft pedal
will not affect notes that are already playing when it is pressed.

t4PTUFOVUP pedal

If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal while the notes are held, those notes will
sustain as long as you hold the pedal (as if the damper pedal had been pressed) but all subsequently played notes will
not be sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes are played "staccato".

tSustain pedal

The sustain pedal functions in the same way as the damper pedal on an acoustic piano.
When the damper pedal is pressed, notes sustain longer. Releasing the pedal immediately
stops any sustained notes.
