Playing with Different Tones

EN-13

Your Digital Piano comes equipped with three pedals:
damper, soft, and sostenuto.

Pedal Functions

z

Damper Pedal

Pressing the damper pedal while playing will cause the
notes you play to reverberate for a long time.

• When a GRAND PIANO tone (CONCERT/

MODERN/CLASSIC/MELLOW/BRIGHT) is

selected as the tone, pressing this pedal will cause

notes to reverberate (with damper resonance) just

like the damper pedal on an acoustic grand piano.

Half-pedal operation (pressing the pedal part way)

is also supported.

z

Soft Pedal

Pressing this pedal while playing suppresses notes
played on the keyboard after the pedal was pressed,
and makes them sound softer.

z

Sostenuto Pedal

Only the notes of the keys that are depressed when this
pedal is pressed are sustained until the pedal is
released.

NOTE

• If pressing the pedal does not produce the desired

effect, it could mean that the pedal cord is not

connected properly. Refer to step 1 under “To

connect the cable” (page EN-40).

Disabling Damper Noise Output

Damper noise is a slight metallic ringing sound that is
generated as the damper of an acoustic piano separates
from the wires pedal when the damper pedal is
pressed. The damper resonance of your Digital Piano
normally includes damper noise, but you can perform
the procedure below to disable its output.

1.

While holding down the

FUNCTION button,

press the Damper Noise keyboard key (page
EN-27).

• Each press of the key toggles the setting and causes

the Digital Piano to beep as described below.
– Long beep: Damper noise output disabled
– Short beep: Damper noise output enabled

• See “Damper noise” on page EN-28 for more

information.
