5. Changing Various Settings
Changing the Damper
Pedal’s Resonance
On an acoustic piano, depressing the damper pedal makes
the notes you play resonate with other strings, adding rich
reverberations and fatness to the sound. The damper pedal
of the ep 880 recreates this resonance (damper resonance)
when depressed.
You can select from eight levels of depth for the resonant
sound (resonance level).
This is set to “5” when the instrument is turned on.
1. Hold down the [REVERB] and [CHORUS] button,
and press the [-] or [+] button.
When you continue holding the [REVERB] and
[CHORUS] button, the currently specified value will
be displayed. Larger values will produce a deeper
effect.
