Soft Pedal Depth

The Soft Pedal Depth setting adjusts the extent to which the soft (left) pedal of the CA59 digital piano softens the
sound of played notes.
While the default value is intended to replicate the effectiveness of a concert grand Una Corda pedal, it may be
desirable for players to increase or decrease the value of this setting to suit their playing style.
On an acoustic piano, pressing this Una Corda pedal shifts the keyboard action slightly to the right, causing the
hammers to strike two strings instead of the usual three, thus reducing the volume of each note.
* This Virtual Technician setting will affect all sounds.
