Assigning functions to the pedals
By default, the three pedals act as (from right to left) damper,
sostenuto and soft. You can freely reassign them according to
your need or preference. You can either assign them to the
sounds (see page 47), or globally by these pages. Global pro-
gramming override sound settings.
Hint: Use sound programming to assign sound effects, like
damper, rotary speaker velocity and glide; use global program-
ming to assign global controls, like drum pattern, recorder and
quarter tone control.
Note: When a function other than Sound is assigned to a pedal,
therefore overriding sound programming, a (G) abbreviation
appears in the pedal assignment pages in Sound Edit mode.
