Casio CELVIANO AP-270 User Manual

Playing with Different Tones
EN-9
Your Digital Piano comes equipped with three pedals:
damper, soft, and sostenuto
Pedal Functions
 Damper Pedal
Pressing the damper pedal while playing will cause the
notes you play to reverberate for a long time. Half-
pedal operation (pressing the pedal part way) is also
supported.
• When one of the GRAND PIANO tones or the
MODERN piano tone is selected, using the damper
pedal adds damper resonance that is similar to that
produced on an acoustic grand piano.
 Sostenuto Pedal
Only the notes of the keys that are depressed when this
pedal is pressed are sustained until the pedal is
released.
 Soft Pedal
Pressing this pedal while playing suppresses notes
played on the keyboard after the pedal was pressed,
and makes them sound softer.
NOTE
• If pressing the pedal does not produce the desired
effect, it could mean that the pedal cord is not
connected properly. Refer to step 1 under “To
connect the cable” (page EN-34).
Disabling Damper Noise Output
Damper noise is a slight metallic ringing sound that is
generated as the damper of an acoustic piano separates
from the wires pedal when the damper pedal is
pressed. The damper resonance of your Digital Piano
normally includes damper noise, but you can perform
the procedure below to disable its output. Damper
noise can be applied to the six GRAND PIANO tones
and MODERN.
1. While holding down the FUNCTION button,
press the Damper Noise keyboard key.
• For details about using the keyboard keys for
settings, see “Keyboard Keys Used for Configuring
Settings” (page EN-21).
• Each press of the key toggles the setting and causes
the Digital Piano to beep as described below.
– Long beep: Damper noise output disabled
– Short beep: Damper noise output enabled
