You can also assign other functions to left pedal (Soft).
1.
On the Basic screen, press <Pad/Pdl>.
2.
Press <Page>.
3.
Use <> and <> to the side of the display to
select the functions of the SOFT footswitch.
In addition to the following functions, all functions
listed under “Pad buttons: additional or frequently
used functions” can be assigned to either footswitch.
Soft for Upper— The footswitch acts as Soft pedal
(affecting the Upper Part or the Whole Part).
Sostenuto for Upper— The pedal acts as Sostenuto
pedal (affecting the Upper Part or the Whole Part).
Damper for Lower— The footswitch acts as separate
Damper pedal for the Lower part.
Bend Up— Select this function if you want to use the
left pedal to shift the pitch of the notes you are playing
upward. The interval (range) can be set using the
Pitch Bend Range parameter (see page 49). To shift a
“C” to the “G” note above the C, set Pitch Bend Range
to “7” and select “Bend Up”. “Bend Up” is probably
what you will use most of the time.
Bend Down— Select this function if you want to use
the left pedal to shift the pitch of the notes you are
playing downward. The interval (range) can be set
using the Pitch Bend Range parameter. To shift a “C”
to the “G” note below the C, set Pitch Bend Range to
“5” and select “Bend Down”.
After a few seconds, the display returns to the previous
screen.
Note: When you press the One Touch Program [PIANO]
button, the pedals once again assume their normal func-
tions (Soft and Sustain).
