The Dual Mode
The DUAL mode makes it possible to play two voices simultaneously across the entire range of the key-
board. To activate the DUAL mode simply press two voice selectors at the same time (or press one voice
selector while holding another). The voice indicators of both selected voices will light when the DUAL mode
is active. To return to the normal single-voice play mode, press any single voice selector.
Adjusting the Balance Be-
tween the Dual-mode Voices
The volume levels of the two voices combined in the DUAL mode are nor-
mally set automatically to produce a pleasing balance (see “Default Settings”
below). The balance can be adjusted manually by using the C2 through C4
keys on the keyboard while pressing the two voice selectors corresponding to
the voices to be combined in the DUAL mode.
The C3 key produces equal (50:50) balance between the two voices, while
keys to the left of C3 increase the volume of the left voice in relation to the
right voice, and keys to the right of C3 increase the volume of the right voice
in relation to the left voice. By “left” and “right” voice we refer to the relative
positions of the voice selectors — i.e. in a HARPSICHORD/ORGAN combi-
nation HARPSICHORD is the left voice and ORGAN is the right voice.

* All other voice combinations are set to C3 (equal balance).
Depending on which voices you combine using the DUAL mode, the com-
bination may sound better if one of the voices is shifted up an octave. To shift
the right voice, press the C5 key while pressing the two voice selectors corre-
sponding to the voices to be combined in the DUAL mode. Press C5 again to
shift the voice back to its normal range. Use the C1 key in the same way to
shift the left voice.
All voice combinations are set to the same octave by default.

When the power is turned on the left pedal is set for soft pedal operation. Pressing the soft pedal reduces the vol-
ume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played.
The left pedal can be switched to sostenuto operation by pressing the pedal while holding the [MIDI/TRANS-
POSE] button. If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal while the note(s) are held,
those notes will be sustained as long as the pedal is held (as if the damper pedal had been pressed) but all subse-
quently played notes will not be sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes
are played “staccato.” You can switch back to soft pedal operation at any time simply by pressing the pedal while
holding the [MIDI/TRANSPOSE] button again.
The damper pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the damper pedal is
pressed notes played have a long sustain. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes.

The CLP-121S has two foot pedals that produce a range of expressive effects similar to
those produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano.
