YDP-101
The Pedals
Soft (Left) Pedal ...............................................................................................
The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of
notes played while the pedal is pressed. The soft pedal will not affect
notes which are already playing when it is pressed.
The left pedal can also be assigned to the song start/stop operation
via the “Left Pedal Mode” described on page 27.
The YDP-101 has three foot pedals that produce a range of expressive
effects similar to those produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano.
Soft pedal
Damper pedal
Sostenuto pedal
Sostenuto (Center) Pedal ......................................................................
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.”
NOTE
• Organ and string voices will continue to sound for as long as the soste-
nuto pedal is depressed.
Damper (Right) 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.
