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. 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.
→ You can vary the amount of resonance applied when the
damper pedal is depressed. Refer to “Adjusting Resonance
(Resonance)” (p. 138).
Sostenuto Pedal
When this pedal is depressed, reverberations are applied
only to the keys being played at that time.
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.
→ When connected to the Sostenuto jack or the Soft jack, you can
also assign other functions to the connected pedal. For more
information, see “Assigning Functions to Pedals and
Performance Pads (Pedal Setting/User Functions)” (p. 143).
→ By providing two more pedals, you can use three pedals at the
same time. If you wish to purchase the optional pedal (DP-2/
DP-6), please contact the dealer where you purchased the
keyboard.
