About the Pedals
The pedals have the following functions, and are used
mainly for piano performance.
Damper pedal (right pedal)
While this pedal is pressed, notes will be sustained even
after you take your fingers off the keys.
The length of sustain will change subtly depending on
how deeply you press the pedal.
On an acoustic piano, holding down the damper pedal
will allow the remaining strings to resonate in sympathy
with the sounds that you played from the keyboard, add-
ing a rich resonance. The HP109-PE simulates this sym-
pathetic resonance.
Sostenuto pedal (center pedal)
This pedal sustains only the sounds of the keys that were
already pressed when you pressed the pedal.
Soft pedal (left pedal)
When you hold down this pedal and play the keyboard,
the sound will have a softer tone.
The softness of the tone can be varied subtly by the depth
to which you press the pedal.
This unit is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief
interval (a few seconds) after power up is required before
the unit will operate normally.
If you need to turn off the power completely, first turn off
the POWER switch, then unplug the power cord from
the power outlet. Refer to “Power Supply” (p. 4).
