Description
Damper pedal or sustain operation. Pressing the footswitch applies a
natural sustain to the keyboard-played voice.
When using EZ Chord (page 66), this provides the same function as
pressing a key in the accompaniment section of the keyboard. Each
press of the footswitch advances to and plays the next EZ Chord entry.
When accompaniment is playing back, simply press and release the
footswitch; when accompaniment playback is off, hold down the
footswitch to keep playing the chord.
This does not disable the accompaniment section of the keyboard; either
the footswitch or the keyboard can be used for EZ Chord increment when
this is selected.
When the Song mode or Style mode is active, this provides the same
function as the START/STOP button (see pages 48). Each press of the
footswitch alternately starts and stops song or accompaniment
playback.
When the Style mode is active, this provides the same function as the
INTRO/ENDING button (see page 49). Pressing the footswitch twice
while the accompaniment is playing back causes the Ending section to
gradually slow down (page 51).
When the Style mode is active, this provides the same function as the
MAIN A (AUTO FILL) button (see page 54).
When the Style mode is active, this provides the same function as the
MAIN B (AUTO FILL) button (see page 54).
When the Style mode is active, this provides the same function as the
HARMONY button (and the Harmony On/Off parameter, #37). (See
page 43.)
This provides the same function as the DUAL button (and the Dual On/
Off parameter, #18). (See page 34.)
This provides the same function as the Split On/Off parameter, #28.
(See page 36.)
This provides the same function as the REVERB button (and the Reverb
On/Off parameter, #31). (See page 40.)
This provides the same function as the Chorus On/Off parameter, #33.
(See page 41.)
This provides the same function as the DSP On/Off parameter, #35.
(See page 42.)
