Main Features
• Allows you to enjoy piano performances at their fullest, since you can use
three pedals.
• This product can be used by connecting it to a device that is equipped
with three pedal jacks that support the use of continuous detection.
• Now, depending on how you depress a pedal, you can modify the
reverberation depth and the softness of notes.
Make Connections
* Malfunction may result if you connect the pedal cords while power is still
switched on for the device to which you’re connecting. Before making the
connection, make sure to switch off the device’s power.
1. Connect the pedal cord from the pedal unit to the appropriate
pedal jacks on the device to which you are connecting the pedals.
The correspondence between the pedals and the plugs is as illustrated

* This product must not be used with jacks that are designed specifi cally to be used
for expression pedals.
* To prevent short-circuits, do not allow the metal portions of the plugs to make
contact with any metal objects. Additionally, make sure that all of the pedal cords
are connected to the device.
* Always check to make sure that you are connecting to a pedal jack; you risk
malfunction by connecting to any other type of jack.
* Depending on the location in which is used, this product could slip and move
around if its rubber feet have become dirty. In such cases, use a moistened cloth
to wipe the rubber feet clean.
Precautions Concerning Use of the Pedals
• Please note that you may not be able to obtain the desired eff ect depend-
ing on the device you connect these pedals to, or the settings that you’ve
made for that device. For information concerning the kinds of eff ects that
you can expect to obtain by operating these pedals, refer to the owner’s
manual that came with your device.
• With a pedal jack that has been set so it functions as an expression pedal
jack, no sound at all will be produced when you’re not stepping on the
pedal. Either depress the pedal, or change the setting for the jack to
something other than “expression pedal.”
