Damper pedal
Sustains notes even after you release the keys.
When the Silent Piano™ function is enabled and
a piano Voice is selected, pressing this pedal
reproduces the complicated interaction of both
strings and soundboard resonance by the VRM
technology (page 37), and makes the sound
more like a real acoustic piano.
The damper pedal features an expressive half-
pedal function, and allows you to set the degree
to which pressing the damper pedal applies the
half-pedal effect (page 35), when using the
Silent Piano™ function.
