Damper Pedal
Use this pedal to sustain the sound. While this pedal is held down, notes will be sustained for an extended time even if you
release your ngers from the keyboard.
This reproduces the following features of an acoustic piano’s damper pedal.
5 A change in feel as you press the pedal, initially light but becoming heavier as you continue pressing (KPD-90 only)
5 Richness and spaciousness added by other strings sympathetically resonating with the sound of the notes you play
5 The distinctive decay added by “half-pedaling,” in which the core of the sound ends quickly while leaving only a rich
spaciousness and resonance
Sostenuto Pedal
The notes you are pressing when this pedal is depressed will be sustained.
Soft Pedal
This pedal is used to make the sound softer. Playing with the soft pedal depressed produces a sound that is not as strong
as when otherwise played with the equivalent strength. This is the same function as the left pedal of a grand piano. The
softness of the tone can be varied subtly by the depth to which you press the pedal.
Pedals (KPD-90 / RPU-3: sold separately)
* When operating the pedal, take care not to pinch your ngers between the moving part and the body of the unit. Pay special attention to this when using the unit where
