Setting Up

Connecting a Pedal Unit (PEDAL UNIT jack)

This jack is for connecting an optional LP-7A/LP-

7AWH pedal unit. When connecting the pedal unit,

make sure to also assemble the unit on the supplied

keyboard stand.

• Make sure that power is off when connecting or disconnect-

ing the pedal.

• This affects only Main/Dual Voices and Harmony sound

(pages 23, 24 and 27).

Pedal Unit functions

Damper Pedal (Right)

Pressing this pedal will sustain notes longer. Releasing this

pedal immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes. A “half-

pedal” function of this pedal creates partial sustain effects,

depending on how far down you press the pedal. When using

both a footswitch and pedal unit, the last effect applied takes pri-

ority.

Damper Resonance

This function simulates the sustain sound produced with a

damper pedal on a grand piano. This effect is added when

the Damper pedal is pressed for Voice 001. You can turn this

function on or off via the FUNCTION display (page 68).

Sostenuto Pedal (Center)

If you play a note or notes on the keyboard and press the soste-

nuto pedal while the note(s) are held, those notes will sustain as

long as you hold the pedal (as if the damper pedal had been

pressed) but all subsequently played notes will not be sustained.

This makes it possible to sustain a note or notes, for example,

while other notes are played “staccato.”

Soft Pedal (Left)

The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the tim-

bre of notes played while the pedal is pressed. The soft pedal

will not affect notes that are already playing when it is pressed.

If you press and hold the

damper pedal here, all the

notes shown will be sus-

tained.

If you press and hold the

sostenuto pedal here, only

the notes held at this timing

will be sustained.
