Pedal functions
• Damper pedal
Pressing this pedal causes notes to reverberate and
to sustain longer.
• Soft pedal
Pressing this pedal dampens notes and slightly
reduces their volume. Only notes played after the
pedal is depressed are affected, and any notes
played before the pedal is pressed sound at their
normal volume.
• Sostenuto pedal
Like the damper pedal, this pedal causes notes to
reverberate and to sustain longer. The difference
between the two pedals is the timing when they
are pressed.
With the sostenuto pedal, you press the pedal after
depressing the notes you want to sustain. Only the
notes whose keyboard keys are depressed when the
sostenuto pedal is pressed are affected.
Selecting the Pedal Function
A pedal connected to the piano’s PEDAL SOFT/
SOSTENUTO jack can operate as either a soft pedal
or a sostenuto pedal. When you turn on the keyboard,
the pedal is initially configured for soft pedal
operation. You can perform the following operation
to select either soft or sostenuto for the pedal
operation.
1
While holding down the CONTROL
button, use the keyboard keys shown below
to select either soft or sostenuto.
Using the Built-in Metronome
You can use the metronome to sound a count that helps
keep you in proper time.
1
Press the METRONOME button.
• This starts the metronome.
2
While holding down the CONTROL
button, press the BEAT [
] or [ ] button
to specify how many beats there are per
measure.
• The first value of the beat can be set to a value
of 2 through 6. The bell (indicating the first beat
of a measure) does not sound while a value of 0
is specified. All beats are indicated by a click
sound. This setting lets you practice with a
steady beat, without worrying about how many
beats there are in each measure.
3
While holding down the CONTROL
button, use the TEMPO [
] and [ ]
buttons to change the tempo (speed) of the
metronome.
• You can also use keyboard keys to change the
tempo setting (See page E-13).
4
Press the METRONOME button again to
stop the metronome.
