1.6 PLAYING THE PIANO
Turning on the power.
You will find the POWER SWITCH at the right end of the front panel.
Press this button to turn on the power. Pressing it again will turn off the
power.
Adjust the volume level.
The VOLUME SLIDER controls the volume level of the speakers and the
headphones. Use this slider to set the volume to a comfortable listening
level.
Now try playing the keyboard.
You will hear the CE200’s main piano sound.
The CE200 piano responds just like a real acoustic piano when you play
it. It produces a louder sound when you play hard and a softer sound
when you play soft. The volume level changes in relation to how fast the
keys are pressed. This system is called “touch sensitivity” on an
electronic musical instrument. The initial touch sensitivity setting has
been adjusted to the standard of an acoustic piano. You can however,
select a different type of touch sensitivity on the CE200 piano if you are
not comfortable with the standard setting. For more detail, please read
5.1 Selecting the Touch Sensitivity (TOUCH Button)” on page 28.
1.7 PEDALS
The CE200 piano has three pedals—just like a grand piano. They are
Sustain, Soft and Sostenuto.
The sustain pedal is capable of responding to half pedaling, which provides
even finer control of the dampering effect.
