PEDALS
Use FC-4 footswitches to create sustain and soft or key hold
(sostenuto) effects as you would on an acoustic piano.
USE OF THE SUSTAIN PEDAL
Press the sustain pedal to sustain all notes played. up to the
16-note polyphonic limit. Further notes played will cancel
the first notes that were played, in the order in which they
were played.
SELECTION OF SOFT/KEY HOLD
PEDAL FUNCTIONS
A second FC-4 footswitch can be used as either a Soft or
Key Hold (Sostenuto) pedal. To switch between the two pedal
functions, hold down the TRANSPOSE/MIDI button and
depress the Soft/Key Hold pedal. As long as the
TRANSPOSE/MIDI button is held, the CHORUS LED will
indicate the current pedal status. When lit, the Key Hold
pedal function is selected. When not lit, the Soft pedal function
is selected. To switch between the two functions again, repeat
the above procedure.
NOTE:
The Soft function is automatically selected when the
PF85 power is turned on.
USE OF THE SOFT PEDAL
Pressing the footswitch when the Soft pedal function is se-
lected mutes the sound of the PF85.
USE OF THE KEY HOLD PEDAL
Pressing the footswitch when the Key Hold pedal function
is selected sustains only the notes that are currently held down.
Subsequent notes played while the pedal is depressed are not
sustained.
