CLP-880/860/840/820/820S

The Pedals

Soft (Left) Pedal

...............................................................................................

The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of

notes played while the pedal is pressed. The soft pedal will not affect
notes which are already playing when it is pressed.

The left pedal can also be assigned to song start/stop operation (or

sostenuto in the case of the CLP-820S) via the “Left Pedal Mode”
described on page 32.

The CLP-820

S

has two and other models have three foot pedals that

produce a range of expressive effects similar to those produced by the
pedals on an acoustic piano.

(except for CLP-820S)

.....................

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
subsequently played notes will not be sustained. This makes it possible
to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes are played “staccato.”

NOTE

• Organ and string voices will continue to sound for as long as the soste-

nuto pedal is depressed.

Damper (Right) Pedal

................................................................................

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.

On the CLP-880/860, when GRAND PIANO, CLASSICAL PI-

ANO, or JAZZ PIANO is selected the damper pedal also produces a
special “resonance” that simulates the ring of the strings and the sound
board of an acoustic piano.

The CLP-880/860 damper pedal additionally features continuous

damping. This allows you to create shorter effects by pressing the
damper pedal down only part of the way.

NOTE

• On the CLP-880/860, soundboard depth and damper pedal mode (switch/

continuous) settings can be changed using the “Pedal Functions” (page
32) in the function mode.
