The CVP-83S and CVP-85A have two pedals
while the CVP-87A has three. These offer a range
of advanced expressive capabilities.
The Pedals
■ Right Pedal (Damper Pedal)
The damper pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the damper pedal is
pressed notes played have a long sustain. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes.
NOTES
• While the CVP-85A and CVP-83S damper pedals are either on or off, the CVP-
87A damper pedal offers continuous damping control. On/off operation can also
be selected via the “Damper Pedal Mode” utility function (page 43).

■ Center Pedal (Sostenuto Pedal, CVP-87A only)
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal while the note(s) are held, those notes will
be sustained as long as the pedal is held (as if the damper pedal had been pressed) but all subsequently played notes will
not be sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes are played “staccato.”
■ Left Pedal (Multi-function)
The left pedal has a number of functions which can be selected using the
[LEFT PEDAL FUNCTION] button and indicators. Each time the [LEFT
PEDAL FUNCTION] button is pressed the next function on the LEFT PEDAL
function “list” is selected and the corresponding indicator will light.
Pressing the soft pedal subtly reduces the volume and slightly changes the tim-
bre of notes played. The SOFT function is automatically selected whenever the
POWER switch is turned on.
● Sostenuto (CVP-85A and CVP-83S) ......................................................................................................
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal while
the note(s) are held, those notes will be sustained as long as the pedal is held (as if
the damper pedal had been pressed) but all subsequently played notes will not be
sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes
are played “staccato.”
The left-pedal SOSTENUTO function cannot be selected while the SOLO
STYLEPLAY feature is operating.
● Soft...........................................................................................................................................................
● Start/Stop ................................................................................................................................................
The left pedal performs the same function as the panel [START/STOP] buttons.
For details on the START/STOP function, refer to the “Accompaniment” section
on page 18, 19.
