Pedal-Controllable Functions - Yamaha Clavinova CVP-204 Owner's Manual

Pedal-controllable Functions

VOLUME* Allows you to use a foot controller (AUX pedal only) to control the volume.
SUSTAIN When the pedal is pressed notes played have a long sustain. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any
sustained notes.
SOSTENUTO If you press and hold the pedal here, only the first note will be sustained (the note that you played and held when pressing
the pedal). This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes are played staccato.
SOFT Pressing the pedal subtly reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played. It only applies to certain
voices — PIANO, for example.
GLIDE When the pedal is pressed the pitch changes, and then back to normal pitch when the pedal is released.
PORTAMENTO The portamento effect (a smooth slide between notes) can be produced while the pedal is pressed. Portamento is
produced when notes are played legato style (i.e., a note is played while the preceding note is still held). The portamento
time can be set via the Mixing Console display (page 124). It does not work for Natural voices.
PITCHBEND* Bend notes up or down while pedal is pressed. This can only be set to the AUX pedal and the CVP-206's damper pedal.
MODULATION* Applies a vibrato effect to notes played on the keyboard. The depth of the effect increases while pedal is pressed. This
does not work for the Natural voices.
DSP VARIATION Same as the [VARIATION] button. This does not work for the Natural voices.
VIBROTOR ON/OFF Turns the "VibRotor" effect type (page 125) on and off. This only works for the Natural voices.
HARMONY/ECHO Same as the [HARMONY/ECHO] button.

BASS HOLD While the pedal is pressed, the Accompaniment Style bass note will be held even if the chord is changed. If the fingering
is set to "FULL KEYBOARD," the function does not work.
PERCUSSION

desired percussion instrument.
