Once the pedal unit is connected you can effectively express your performances using the
damper, sostenuto and soft functions.
Soft pedal
Pressing this pedal will make the tone softer. You can control the softness of the tone by
how far down you press the on pedal ("half-pedaling").
Sostenuto pedal
Pressing this pedal will apply the damper effect only to the notes that are already being
held down on the keyboard, and will sustain only those notes. The damper effect will not
be applied to any additional notes that you play while holding down the Sostenuto pedal.
Damper pedal
Pressing this pedal will sustain the sound, producing a richly resonant decay. In addition,
you can change the applied conditions of the damper according to the depth that the tone
pedal of piano 1 and 2 is pressed. ("half-pedaling").
