YDP-S34 Owner’s Manual

Damper Pedal (Right)

Pressing this pedal will sustain notes longer.

Releasing this pedal immediately stops (damps)

any sustained notes. This pedal also features a

“half-pedal” function that creates partial sustain

effects, depending on how far down you press the

pedal.

Sostenuto Pedal (Center)

Pressing this pedal while holding the notes will

sustain the pressed notes (as if the Damper Pedal

had been pressed), but all subsequently played

notes will not be sustained. This makes it possible

to sustain a chord or single low note, for example,

while the other notes are played “staccato.”

Soft Pedal (Left)

Pressing this pedal will reduce the volume and slightly change the timbre of the

notes. The notes played before this pedal is pressed are not affected.

The Damper Resonance effect simulates the sustain sound of the damper pedal on a grand piano, as if you

were pressing the damper pedal and playing the keyboard. This effect is applied only to the Piano Voices

(page 18).

To turn on the Damper Resonance:

While holding [PIANO/VOICE], press the C#3 key.

To turn off the Damper Resonance:

While holding [PIANO/VOICE], press the C3 key.

Using the Pedals

When you press the damper

pedal here, this note and the

notes you play before you release

the pedal sustain longer.

When you press the sostenuto

pedal here while holding the

note, the note will sustain as

long as you hold the pedal.

NOTE

If the damper pedal doesn’t

work, make sure that the pedal

cord is properly plugged into

the main unit (page 32).

Half-pedal function

This function allows you to vary

the sustain length depending

on how far the pedal is

pressed. The farther down you

press the pedal, the more the

sound sustains. For example, if

you press the damper pedal

and all notes you are playing

sound a bit murky and loud

with too much sustain, you can

release the pedal half way or

higher to decrease the sustain

(murkiness).

NOTE

While the sostenuto pedal is

held, the organ and strings

Voices sound continuously

without decay after the notes

have been released.

NOTE

When Jazz Organ Voice

(page 18) is selected,

pressing the left pedal

switches between fast/slow

rotation of the rotary speaker.

When the Vibraphone Voice

(page 18) is selected, the left

pedal switches Vibrato on and

off.

Using the Damper Resonance

Default setting:

Lowest key C3 (Off)

C#3 (On)
