Adding spaciousness
You can apply modulation to the sound currently
selected by the [Sound selector] switches, to create a
sense of spaciousness and richness. This is called the
Chorus effect. The Chorus effect can be set indepen-
dently for each sound. This setting is remembered for
each sound until you change it.
1. Hold down the [CHORUS] switch, and press
either the [PIANO 1/L], [PIANO 2/M], or
[E.PIANO/H] sound selector switch to select the
depth of the chorus effect.
PIANO 1/L The chorus effect will be applied lightly.
PIANO 2/M The chorus effect will be applied moderately.
E.PIANO/H The chorums effect will be applied deeply.
2. To check the currently selected chorus depth,
hold down the [CHORUS] switch.
The indicator of either the [PIANO 1/L], [PIANO
2/M], or [E.PIANO/H] sound selector switch will
light to indicate the current chorus depth.
3. If you do not want to apply the chorus effect,
press the [CHORUS] switch to make the [CHO-
RUS] switch indicator go dark.
3. Using the pedals
This instrument has three pedals: damper, sostenuto,
and soft. They can be used to make your performance
more expressive.
Damper pedal
Sostenuto pedal
Soft pedal
Damper pedal
While you continue pressing the pedal, the sound will
be sustained, and a rich resonance will be produced.
The depth at which you press the pedal will adjust the
degree of the damper effect (Half-damper effect).
Sostenuto pedal
The damper effect will be applied only to notes which
were already held while the pedal was pressed, so that
these notes will continue sustaining while the pedal
remains pressed. The damper effect will not apply to
new notes that are newly played while the sostenuto
pedal is already pressed.
Soft pedal
The sound will be softer and more mellow while you
press the pedal. The depth at which you press the
pedal will adjust the softness of the sound (half-pedal
effect).
Pedal settings for Layer
You can select which sound will be affected by the
damper pedal when the Layer function is used.
Hold down the [TRANSPOSE/FUNCTION]
switch, and press the damper pedal.
The [Sound selector] switch to which the damper
effect is applied will light.
Each time you press the damper pedal, the effect
will cycle between being applied to “one [Sound
select] switch” “the other [Sound select]
switch,” “both [Sound select] switches.” After
you have made the desired setting, release the
[TRANSPOSE/FUNCTION] switch.
