Cause/Action
The adjuster may have loosened as you used the pedal. Lower the
adjuster so that it contacts the floor. If you are using the piano on
carpet, lower the adjuster so that it presses strongly against the floor.
Check the pedal jack located on the bottom of the piano.
If you disconnect the pedal cord while the piano is powered-
on, the pedal effect might remain applied. Connect or
disconnect the pedal cord while the piano is powered off.
If the right pedal part is set to "Right, " it applies only to the right-hand
tone; if set to "Left, " it applies only to the left-hand tone.
If Twin Piano is on, the right pedal will affect only the right-
hand keyboard zone and the left pedal will affect only the
left-hand keyboard zone.
If the function of the sostenuto pedal (center pedal) or the soft
pedal (left pedal) have been changed, they will not operate as
the sostenuto pedal or the soft pedal. Restore the settings of
the "Center Pedal Function" and "Left Pedal Function. "

a ".MID" extension. If the song name information in the file is
blank or consists only of spaces, the song name is not shown in
the piano screen.
Select the part in the screen that you want to record, so that it
blinks.
Audio recording cannot be performed unless a USB flash drive
is connected.
Depending on the data format of the song, raise the "Song
Volume SMF" or "Song Volume AUDIO" value.
Some of the Piano Designer settings might not be reproduced
when you play back a song.
If you want to record with the same tonal character as when
you play the keyboard, record your performance as SMF.
