If the pedal is connected to the Damper jack, it can be
used as a damper pedal (to sustain the notes played
on the keyboard). If the pedal is connected to the Soft
jack, it can be used as a soft pedal (to lower the vol-
ume).
Damper Pedal—Use this function (jack) when you
want the sound to linger on. While the damper pedal
is depressed, the sound from the keyboard continues
to linger for an extended period, even when you
remove your fingers from the keys.
This is the same function as the right-most pedal on
an acoustic piano.
Soft Pedal—This pedal softens the sound. Playing
with the soft pedal depressed produces a sound that is
not as strong as when played with the equivalent
strength. This is the same function as the left-most
pedal on an acoustic piano.
Note: By connecting an additional pedal, you can use both
a Damper pedal and a Soft pedal simultaneously. Please
contact the dealer where you purchased the ep-97/77.
2.3 Turning the power on and off
Your ep-97 or ep-77 is fitted with an amplifier and
speakers so that you do not need additional devices.
