The following numbers are not valid MIDI control numbers. They are used internally to designate MIDI control sources
which are transmitted as separate MIDI messages:

Only one control source can be assigned to a control destination. When editing, the INCR and DECR keys skip over
previously assigned control sources. If you enter a control source number directly with the numeric keypad, any previous
assignment is canceled.
Assignable Controls and Switches
The following sections describe the basic controls and switches. The chapters on the programmable chorusing and vibrato
units describe the controls and switches which are specific to those devices.
Sustain Pedal
The sustain pedal is a switch that behaves exactly like its piano counterpart. While it is down (ON) notes will continue to
sound even after their keys have been released.
Sostenuto Pedal
The sostenuto pedal is a switch that behaves exactly like its piano counterpart. While it is down (ON) any notes whose keys
were down when the pedal was depressed will be sustained, but subsequent notes are not effected.
Timbre-Freeze Pedal
The Timbre-Freeze pedal is a switch that behaves like a sostenuto pedal, but activates an effect called Timbre Freeze*.
While it is down (ON) any notes whose keys were down when the pedal was depressed are frozen. That is, their timbral
evolution is suspended. When the pedal is released, the notes will continue to evolve if their keys are still down or the
sustain pedal is down. Otherwise, they will release.
Soft Pedal
The soft pedal is actually a continuous control that acts as an attenuator to control the timbre of notes. If assigned to a switch
controller it is either fully up (OFF) or fully down (ON). If it is assigned to a continuous controller then it can take on any
value between 0 and its maximum attenuation value, which is a program level parameter.
Mute Pedal
When the mute pedal is depressed (ON) all active notes on the associated channel are released. Subsequent notes (started
while the pedal is still down) are not effected. The mute pedal is permanently assigned to the All-Notes-Off MIDI message.
Pitch Bender
The pitch bender is a bidirectional controller which bends the pitch of all notes on a particular channel. Its range is
adjustable in semitones and it set at the program level. Its effect can be selectively enabled at the layer level.
Pitch Shifter
The pitch shifter is a bidirectional controller which changes the pitch of notes in semitone steps (providing a shift range of
+63 to -64 semitones).
