In Layer mode, you can select the sound(s) where you
want to apply the pedal. (refer to “Specifying layer
pedals” on page 13)
In Partner mode (see page 12), the damper eect can be
applied independently by both players.

Performing with another person
(Partner mode)
Two people can play in the same range with the keyboard
divided in half between them. This is called the Partner
mode.

used for both the le and right sides of the keyboard.
While the Partner mode is ON, a dot in the lower right
of the display appears.
The right side of the keyboard, from E4 to C8(E7*), pro-
duces sounds in a range two octaves lower (E2–C6(E5*)).
The le side of the keyboard, from A0(E1*) to E
b
4, produc-
es sounds in a range two octaves higher (A2(E3*)–E

Using pedals
The LP-380 has three pedals; damper,
sostenuto, and so.
You can use the pedals to make your
playing more expressive and realistic.
Soft pedal (left)
Pressing this pedal will make the tone soer. You can con-
trol the soness of the tone by how far down you press the
on pedal (“half-pedaling”).
Sostenuto pedal (center)
Pressing this pedal will apply the damper eect only to the
notes that are already being held down on the keyboard,
and will sustain only those notes. The damper eect will
not be applied to any additional notes that you play while
holding down the Sostenuto pedal.
Damper pedal (right)
Pressing this pedal will sustain the sound, producing a
richly resonant decay. You can also add the damper reso-
nance to the classic piano and the grand piano tone (bank
1 and 2 of Piano1). You can also use halfpedalling, with a
gradual resonance effect depending on the depth of the
pedal pressure (“half-pedaling”).
