Using pedals

The LP-380 has three pedals; damper,
sostenuto, and soft.
You can use the pedals to make your
playing more expressive and realistic.
Soft pedal (left)
Pressing this pedal will make the tone softer. You can con-
trol the softness of the tone by how far down you press the
on pedal ("half-pedaling").
Sostenuto pedal (center)
Pressing this pedal will apply the damper effect only to the
notes that are already being held down on the keyboard,
and will sustain only those notes. The damper effect will
not be applied to any additional notes that you play while
holding down the Sostenuto pedal.
Damper pedal (right)
Pressing this pedal will sustain the sound, producing a
richly resonant decay. You can also add the damper reso-
nance to the classic piano and the grand piano tone (bank
1 and 2 of Piano1). You can also use halfpedalling, with a
gradual resonance effect depending on the depth of the
pedal pressure ("half-pedaling").
