AC Power Switch and Pilot
Push the switch once to turn the
CP-20 "on", and again to turn power
"off". The Pilot lamp is illuminated
when the AC power is "on".
Volume
The VOLUME control sets the over-
all level in Output and Headphone
Output jacks.
Balance
The BALANCE control, continu-
ously adjusts the relative level of PIANO
1 and PIANO 2 compared to HARPSI-
CHORD 1 and HARPSICHORD 2.
Bass and Treble Tone Controls
The BASS and TREBLE controls
both affect the entire keyboard,
changing the sound in Output and
Headphone Output jacks. Centering the
controls (12 o'clock) provides "flat"
frequency response. Experiment with
the TONE controls to learn how they
x an alter the CP-20's sound.

Piano/Harpsichord Switches
OUTPUT carries the sounds created
by the four PIANO/HARPSICHORD
switches labeled above them.
The sound created by its PIANO 1
switch is different from the sound
created by its PIANO 2 switch. The
same is true for the HARPSICHORD
1 and 2 switches. Thus, you can enjoy
varied sound colors by selecting differ-
ent combinations of the four PIANO/
HARPSICHORD switches.
Tremolo Switch, Speed and
Intensity Controls
The Tremolo controls further en-
hance the CP-20's available sounds.

Decay Control and Sustain Pedal
The keyboard notes "sustain'' when
you hold down the keys or when you
depress the supplied SUSTAIN foot
pedal, just like a standard acoustic
piano. In other words, holding down
the sustain foot pedal sustains a note
just like holding down one of the keys.
The maximum sustain time is controlled
from a very short staccato to a very long
sustain by the DECAY control.
Pitch Control
The PITCH control varies the pitch
over a wide range. The PITCH control
tunes the entire keyboard. Thus you can
tune to match the instruments with you.
The TREMOLO rocker switch starts and
stops the effect.
The TREMOLO INTENSITY control
sets the depth of the tremolo effect (the
modulation percentage). Lower settings
yield a more shallow tremolo effect, and
higher settings yield a more intense
tremolo effect. The TREMOLO SPEED
control varies the rate of the TREM-
OLO effect (the modulation frequency).
Higher settings of the SPEED control
cause the volume to vary more rapidly;
lower settings cause the volume to
vary more slowly.
