Setting Up
Connecting Pedals
The pedal unit included with your CP1 is to be connected via the [SUSTAIN], [SOSTENUTO], and [SOFT] foot-switch
jacks located on the rear panel. The unit’s three plugs are color coded, with the light grey plug connected to the Sustain
pedal (located on the right), the dark grey plug connected to the Sostenuto pedal (located in the middle), and the black
plug connected to the Soft pedal (located on the left). Accordingly, the light grey plug should be plugged into the
[SUSTAIN] foot-switch jack, the dark grey plug should be plugged into the [SOSTENUTO] foot-switch jack, and the black
plug should be plugged into the [SOFT] foot-switch jack (each of which is also color coded in the same way).
In order to intuitively control a range of different CP1 parameters, furthermore, an optional FC4 or FC5 foot switch can
also be connected via the [ASSIGNABLE] foot-switch jack and optional FC7 or FC9 foot controllers can be connected via
the [1] and [2] foot-controller jacks. For details on how to assign parameters to these foot switches and controllers, see
the description concerning the fourth page of the Common Settings screen (on page 54 below).
NOTE
The [SUSTAIN] foot-switch jack can also be used to connect an optional FC3, foot pedal or an optional FC4, or FC5 foot switch, while the
[SOSTENUTO] and [SOFT] foot-switch jacks can also be used to connect FC4 and FC5 foot switches.
CAUTION
When disconnecting the pedals from the CP1, be sure to pull the plugs and not the cables.
CAUTION
If the CP1 is setup on a flat surface such as a tabletop and the pedal plugs are oriented vertically downward as shown below after
being plugged in, the base of each will be placed under considerable strain due to lack of space, possibly leading to cable
breakage. In such a case, therefore, ensure that the plugs are tilted away from the vertical or take other suitable measures to avoid
placing them under strain.
