2. Adding effects to the sound

Adjusting the brightness of the sound

the power is turned off. For details, refer to "9.
Storing your settings" ( p.16).
• Hold down the Brilliance switch and press
either the Piano 1/L, Piano 2/M, or E.Piano 1/H
sound selector switch to select the desired
brightness.
If you selected the Piano 1/L switch or E.Piano 1/H
switch, the Brilliance switch indicator will light.
Piano 1/L Softer tone
Piano 2/M Normal tone
E.Piano 1/H Brighter tone
Adding reverb to the sound
The Reverb effect re-creates the acoustic characteristics of
playing in a concert hall, adding depth and ambience to
your sound.
The C-3200 can remember this setting even when
the power is turned off. For details, refer to "9.
Storing your settings" ( p.16).
1. Hold down the Reverb switch and press either
the Piano 1/L, Piano 2/M, or E.Piano 1/H sound
selector switch to select the desired depth of
reverb.

switch.

The Piano 1 and 2 sounds simulate the string
resonances of an acoustic piano, so a slight reverb
effect will remain even if you turn the Reverb
effect off.

3. Using the pedals

The C-3200 has three pedals: soft, sostenuto, and damper.
You can use these pedals to add expression to your
playing, as on a traditional piano.
Soft pedal
Sostenuto pedal
Damper pedal
Pressing this pedal will sustain the sound, producing
a richly resonant decay. You can control the damper
depth by how far down you press the on pedal ("half-
pedaling").
Sostenuto pedal
Pressing this pedal will apply the damper effect only
to the notes that are already being held down on the
keyboard, and will sustain only those notes. The
damper effect will not be applied to any additional
notes that you play while holding down the
Sostenuto pedal.
Soft pedal
Pressing this pedal will make the tone softer. You can
control the softness of the tone by how far down you
press the on pedal ("half-pedaling").
