Your Digital Piano comes equipped with three pedals: damper, soft, and sostenuto

Pedal Functions

Damper Pedal Pressing the damper pedal while playing will cause the notes you play to reverberate for a long time. Half- pedal operation (pressing the pedal part way) is also supported. When one of the GRAND PIANO tones or the

MODERN piano tone is selected, using the damper pedal adds damper resonance that is similar to that produced on an acoustic grand piano.

Sostenuto Pedal Only the notes of the keys that are depressed when this pedal is pressed are sustained until the pedal is released.

Soft Pedal Pressing this pedal while playing suppresses notes played on the keyboard after the pedal was pressed, and makes them sound softer.

NOTE

If pressing the pedal does not produce the desired effect, it could mean that the pedal cord is not connected properly. Refer to step 1 under To connect the cable (page EN-34).

Disabling Damper Noise Output

Damper noise is a slight metallic ringing sound that is generated as the damper of an acoustic piano separates from the wires pedal when the damper pedal is pressed. The damper resonance of your Digital Piano normally includes damper noise, but you can perform the procedure below to disable its output. Damper noise can be applied to the six GRAND PIANO tones and MODERN.

1. While holding down the FUNCTION button, press the Damper Noise keyboard key. For details about using the keyboard keys for

settings, see Keyboard Keys Used for Configuring Settings (page EN-21).

Each press of the key toggles the setting and causes the Digital Piano to beep as described below. Long beep: Damper noise output disabled Short beep: Damper noise output enabled

You can specify a beat value in the range of 0 to 9 (beats per measure). A chime will sound on the first beat of each measure, and clicks will sound for the remaining beats. Specifying 0 plays a straight click, without any chime. This setting lets you practice with a steady beat.

4. Release the FUNCTION button and then hold it down again as you press the METRONOME TEMPO keyboard key. Keep the FUNCTION button depressed as you

advance to step 5.

5. While holding down the FUNCTION button, use the TEMPO keys to specify a tempo value in the range of 20 to 255 beats per minute.

Each press of the + or key raises or lowers the tempo value by 1.

You can also use the tempo value input keys (0 to 9) to enter a specific tempo value.

Input three digits as the tempo value. Example: To set a tempo of 20, press keys 0, 2, and

then 0.

6. Press the METRONOME button to turn off the metronome.

NOTE

If you used the numeric input (0 to 9) keyboard keys to input beat and/or tempo values and the values are within the allowable setting ranges, the Digital Piano will emit a high pitch beep when you release the FUNCTION button. If a value is outside the allowable range, a low-pitch sound will be emitted.

You could also use the procedure below in place of steps 4 and 5 of the above procedure to specify a tempo value. While holding down the FUNCTION button, use

the TEMPO keyboard keys to specify a tempo value in the range of 20 to 255 (beats per minute).

In step 5 of the above procedure, pressing the + and keys at the same time will set the tempo of the Concert Play lesson song or Music Library song (in the case of a recorded song, the tempo when the song was recorded) that was last selected on the Digital Piano.

Using the Metronome

A tones quality and volume sounds slightly different depending where it is played on the keyboard.

This is an unavoidable result of the digital sampling process,* and does not indicate malfunction. * Multiple digital samples are taken for the low range, middle range, and high range of the

original musical instrument. Because of this, there may be very slight differences in tonal quality and volume between sample ranges.

When I press a button, the note that is sounding cuts out momentarily or there is a slight change in how effects are applied.

This happens when the sounds of multiple parts are sounding at the same time while using layer, using the Duet Mode, playing back a built-in tune, recording, etc. Pressing a button when one of these conditions exists will cause the effect setting that is built into the tone to change automatically, which causes notes to cut out momentarily or causes a slight change in how effects are being applied.

I need to reset all Digital Piano data and settings to their initial defaults.

Hold down the FUNCTION, MIDI REC and GRAND PIANO 2 buttons, and press the power button to turn on power.

I need to reset a specific setting to its initial default.

Hold down the FUNCTION button and press the + and keyboard keys of the setting at the same time.
