Functions
When you use a Super Articulation Voice that has an effect assigned to the pedal/foot-
switch, you can enable the effect by pressing the pedal/footswitch. You can turn this
function on or off for each keyboard part at the bottom of this display.
Controls the volume by using a foot controller. You can turn this function on or off for
each part at the bottom of this display.
Controls the sustain. When you press and hold the pedal, all notes played on the key-
board have a longer sustain. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any sus-
tained notes. You can turn this function on or off for each keyboard part at the bottom of
this display.
Controls the Sostenuto effect. If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the
pedal while holding the note(s), the notes will sustain as long as the pedal is held. How-
ever, all subsequent notes will not sustain. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for
example, while other notes are played staccato. You can turn this function on or off for
each keyboard part at the bottom of this display.
NOTE
This function will not affect any of the Organ Flutes and only some of the Super Articulation Voices.
Controls the Soft effect. Pressing this pedal reduces the volume and changes the timbre
of the notes you play. This is effective only for certain appropriate Voices. You can turn
this function on or off for each keyboard part at the bottom of this display.
When the pedal is pressed, the pitch changes, and then returns to normal pitch when the
pedal is released. You can turn this function on or off for each keyboard part, and make
the following settings at the bottom of this display.
• Up/Down: Determines whether the pitch change goes up (is raised) or down (is low-
ered).
• Range: Determines the range of the pitch change, in semitones.
• On Speed: Determines the speed of the pitch change when the pedal is pressed.
• Off Speed: Determines the speed of the pitch change when the pedal is released.
Switches whether the Voice is played monophonically or polyphonically. You can turn
this function on or off for each keyboard part at the bottom of this display.
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 also be adjusted
from the Voice Edit display (page
board part at the bottom of this display.
NOTE
This function affects only certain Voices, especially synth lead and some bass Voices. It will not affect any of
the Organ Flutes, Super Articulation 2 Voices and only some of the Super Articulation Voices, even if the func-
tion has been assigned to the Foot Pedals.
Allows you to bend the pitch of notes up or down by using the pedal. You can turn this
function on or off for each keyboard part, and make the following settings at the bottom
of this display.
• Up/Down: Determines whether the pitch change goes up (is raised) or down (is low-
ered).
• Range: Determines the range of the pitch change, in semitones.
Applies vibrato and other effects to notes played on the keyboard. You can turn this
function on or off for each keyboard part at the bottom of this display.
This is a slight variation on Modulation above, in which the effects (waveform) can be
alternately turned on/off by each press of the pedal/footswitch. You can turn this func-
tion on or off for each keyboard part at the bottom of this display.
