FUNCTION MODE

6) DAMPER EFFECT

When the damper pedal is depressed on an acoustic piano, all dampers are lifted up, allowing the strings to vibrate

freely. When a note or chord is played on the piano with the damper pedal depressed, not only will the strings of

the notes played vibrate, but also the strings of other notes, vibrating in sympathetic resonance. The Damper Effect

function of the CL36 digital piano attempts to simulate this phenomenon.

 Step 1

Press and hold the METRONOME and SOUND SELECT buttons simultaneously, then press the key
assigned to the DAMPER EFFECT function.

 Step 2

While still holding down the METRONOME and
SOUND SELECT buttons, press one of the following
keys to select the Damper Effect type:

Key1:Soft

Key2:Normal

Key3:Strong

 The Damper Effect setting is automatically set to Normal when the CL36 digital piano is turned on.

7) CONCERT MAGIC MODE

 Mode 1

 Mode 2

Mode 2 allows Concert Magic songs to be played by simply tapping any key with a constant steady beat, regardless

of the song arrangement type.

 Step 1
