Before You Play
Installing the Music Stand
fig.00-03
1.
Using the supplied screws, attach the music stand
to the back of the FP-2 as illustrated.
Be sure to use the supplied screws for attaching the
music stand.
Turn the screws clockwise until they’re held in place–but
don’t tighten them yet.
2.
Put the music stand between the screws and the
FP-2’s body.
3.
While supporting the music stand with one hand,
secure it in place by turning the screws.
When attaching the music stand, support it firmly with
one hand to make sure that you don’t drop it. Be careful,
so you don’t get your fingers pinched.
To remove the music stand, support it with one hand
while loosening the screws.
After removing the music stand, don’t forget to retighten
the screws.
* Do not apply excessive force to the installed music stand.
Using the stand
When using the stand (FPS-11A), be sure to affix the spacers
that are provided with the stand, as shown in the figure.

Connecting Pedals
1.
Connect the pedal included with the FP-2 to one
of the Pedal jacks.
When connected to the Damper jack,
the pedal can be used as a damper
pedal.
When connected to Sostenuto(FC1)
jack, the pedal can be used as a
sostenuto pedal. In addition, it can be
set to function as an another works
(p. 39, p. 48).
When connected to Soft(FC2) jack,
the pedal can be used as a soft pedal.
In addition, it can be set to function
as an another works (p. 39, p. 48).
* Unplugging a pedal cord from the unit while the power is on
may cause the pedal’s effect to be applied without stopping.
The power of the FP-2 must be turned off before inserting or
removing a pedal cord.
Damper Pedal
Use this pedal to sustain the sound. While the pedal is
depressed, long lingering reverberations continue to be
added to the sound after you release from the keys.
The pedal included with the FP-2 functions as a half-damper
pedal, which allows you to adjust the amount of resonance.
When you depress the damper pedal on an acoustic piano,
the sound from the strings that were struck resonates with
other strings, adding rich reverberations and broadness to
the sound. You can adjust this resonance (sympathetic
resonance) when the damper pedal is depressed.
* Set the switch on the included pedal to “Continuous” when
the pedal is connected.
Sostenuto Pedal
This pedal sustains only the sounds of the keys that were
already played when you pressed the pedal.
With the pedal connected to the Sostenuto(FC1) jack, it can be
assigned other functions as well. Refer to “Changing How the
Pedals Work” (p. 39), “Using the Pedal to Switch Setup
(Pedal shift)” (p. 48).
Soft Pedal
This pedal is used to make the sound softer.
Playing with the soft pedal depressed produces a sound that
is not as strong as when otherwise played with the
equivalent strength. This is the same function as the left
pedal of an acoustic piano.
With the pedal connected to the Soft(FC2) jack, it can be
assigned other functions as well. Refer to “Changing How the
Pedals Work” (p. 39), “Using the Pedal to Switch Setup
(Pedal shift)” (p. 48).
By obtaining a second and third pedal, you can then use three
pedals simultaneously. If you wish to purchase the optional
pedal (DP series), please contact the dealer where you
purchased the FP-2.
