Selecting and Using Built-in Tones

Using the PITCH BEND Wheel
Rotating the PITCH BEND wheel causes the pitch of notes to bend.
This lets you add realistic effects to saxophone, electric guitar, and
other tones.
1
While playing a note on the keyboard, rotate the PITCH
BEND wheel on the left of the keyboard upwards or
downwards.
• Releasing the PITCH BEND wheel will cause the pitch to
return to its normal setting automatically.
Using the Metronome
1
Press the METRONOME button.
• This starts the metronome.
2
Rotate the dial to select the number of beats per
measure.
• Note that you need to select the number of beats per
measure with the dial within a few seconds after turning
on the metronome. If you don’t, the display will exit the
setting screen.
• You can select a value in the range of 2 through 6. With
each setting, a chime sounds as the first beat of each
measure, and the remaining beats sound as clicks.
Specifying 0 as the setting plays a straight click, without
any chime. This setting lets you practice with a steady beat.
3
Use the TEMPO buttons to adjust the tempo.
NOTE
• You can also use the dial to change the tempo setting while
the current setting is indicated by a value in brackets ([ ]) on
the display.
Example: [T:120]
• The value indicates the number of beats per minutes.
• To return the tempo to its initial default setting, press the
TEMPO and buttons at the same time.
4
To stop the metronome, press the METRONOME button
again.

Using the Digital Piano’s Pedals
The digital piano is equipped with two pedal jacks, one for a
damper pedal and one for a soft/sostenuto pedal. You can use the
procedure below to specify the type of operation that should be
performed by the pedal connected to the PEDAL SOFT/
SOSTENUTO jack.
Pedal Types
● Damper Pedal
Pressing the pedal connected to the DAMPER jack while playing
notes causes the notes to sustain until you release the pedal.
● Soft Pedal
While the SOFT pedal is depressed, the volume of notes played
on the keyboard is reduced slightly, producing a softer sound.
Only notes that are played after the pedal is depressed are
affected, while previously played notes are not.
● Sostenuto Pedal
Like the DAMPER pedal, pressing the SOSTENUTO pedal causes
notes to continue to sustain until you release the pedal. The
difference is the timing when the effect is applied. With the
sostenuto pedal you play the notes and then depress the pedal
before releasing the keyboard keys. Only the notes whose
keyboard keys are depressed when the sostenuto pedal is pressed
are affected.
Selecting the PEDAL SOFT/SOSTENUTO
jack Pedal Function
The initial power on setting of the PEDAL SOFT/SOSTENUTO
jack is for soft pedal operation. See “Other Settings” on page E-26
for information about changing to sostenuto pedal operation.
