Connecting the damper pedal

Use the

PEDAL > DAMPER

connector to connect a damper pedal, like the (op-

tional) KORG PS-1, PS-3 or DS-1H. The DS-1H pedal supports all the nuances of
half-pedaling on some acoustic piano sounds. You can experiment how it works

by gradually pressing it down, and gradually releasing it, while playing the

Concert Grand

Sound.

If you need to change the pedal’s polarity and calibrate it, go to the

Settings >

Controllers > Foot

page.

Connecting a pedal or footswitch

Use the

PEDAL > ASSIGNABLE

connector to connect a footswitch pedal like the

(optional) KORG PS-1, PS-3 or DS-1H, or a continuous pedal like the (optional)

KORG XVP-20 Volume pedal or the EXP-2 Expression pedal.
By default, this connector will work as an Expression pedal. If you want to change

the assigned function, or you need to change the pedal’s polarity and calibrate
it, go to the

Settings > Controllers > Foot

page.
