Using pedals

Using the damper pedal
Pressing this pedal will sustain the sound, producing a richly resonant de-
cay. You can also use halfpedalling, with a gradual resonance effect depend-
ing on the depth of the pedal pressure ("half-pedaling").
In Layer mode, you can select the sound(s) to apply the pedal to. (refer to
"Specifying layer pedals" on page 19)
Use optional pedal unit (sold separately) to achieve three pedal effects.
Soft pedal (left)
Pressing this pedal will make the tone softer. You can control the softness of
the tone by how far down you press the on pedal ("half-pedaling").
Sostenuto pedal (center)
Pressing this pedal will apply the damper effect only to the notes that are
already being held down on the keyboard, and will sustain only those notes.
The damper effect will not be applied to any additional notes that you play
while holding down the Sostenuto pedal.
Damper pedal (right)
Pressing this pedal will sustain the sound, producing a richly resonant de-
cay. You can also use halfpedalling, with a gradual resonance effect depend-
ing on the depth of the pedal pressure ("half-pedaling").
In Layer mode, you can select the sound(s) where you want to apply the
pedal. (refer to "Specifying layer pedals" on page 19)
In Partner mode (see page 18), the damper effect can be applied indepen-
dently by both players.
