Music holders
Damper Pedal
Use this pedal to sustain the sound. While this pedal is held down, notes will be sustained for an extended time even
if you release your fingers from the keyboard. The length of the sustain will change subtly depending on how deeply
you press the pedal. On an acoustic piano, holding down the damper pedal will cause the strings for notes other
than the ones you actually play to vibrate in sympathy with what you’ve played, producing a rich resonance. This unit
simulates this sympathetic vibration (damper resonance).
Sostenuto Pedal
This pedal sustains only the notes of the keys that were already pressed when you pressed the pedal.
Soft Pedal
This pedal is used to make the sound softer. Playing with the soft pedal depressed produces a sound that is not
as strong as when otherwise played with the equivalent strength. This is the same function as the left pedal of an
acoustic piano. The softness of the tone can be varied subtly by the depth to which you press the pedal.
