About the Pedals
The pedals perform the following operations. You’ll use them
mainly when playing piano.
Damper Pedal (right pedal)
While this pedal is held down, notes will be sustained for an
extended time even if you release your fingers from the
keyboard.
On an acoustic piano, holding down the damper pedal will
cause the strings for notes other than the ones you actually
play to vibrate in sympathy with what you’ve played,
producing a rich resonance. The RP101 simulates this
sympathetic vibration (damper resonance).
NOTE
You can change the amount of resonance applied with
the damper pedal. Refer to “Changing the Damper
Pedal’s Resonance (Damper Resonance)” (p. 34).
Sostenuto Pedal (center pedal)
This pedal sustains only the sounds of the keys that were
already played when you pressed the pedal.
Soft Pedal (left pedal)
This pedal is used to make the sound softer.
