Using the pedals
The Clavinova has three foot pedals: damper pedal (right), sostenuto 
pedal (center), and soft pedal (left) that produce a range of expressive 
effects similar to those produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano.
If the damper pedal doesn’t 
work, or notes are sustained 
even when the pedal is not 
pressed, make sure that the 
RPedal parameter in the 
“VOICE SETTING” menu is 
set to ON (see page 81).
Damper (right) pedal
When you press the damper pedal, the notes 
you play have a longer sustain.
When you select Grand Piano 1, pressing the 
damper pedal activates the instrument’s special 
“Sustain Samples” to accurately recreate the 
unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano’s 
soundboard and strings.
You can adjust the depth of 
the resonance produced by 
the “Sustain Samples” using 
the Sustain Sampling Depth 
parameter in the “OTHER 
SETTING” menu. (See page 
88.)
Sostenuto (center) pedal
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard 
and press the sostenuto pedal while holding 
the note(s), the notes will sustain as long as 
the pedal is held. All subsequent notes will 
not sustain.
You can assign a function to 
each pedal via the “R 
Pedal”, “M Pedal”, and “L 
Pedal” parameters in the 
“VOICE SETTING” menu. 
(See page 81, 82.)
The center and left pedals 
can also be assigned to 
song start/stop operation 
(START/PAUSE function) via 
the “PedalStart/Pause” 
parameter in the “OTHER 
SETTING” menu (on page 
89).
Soft pedal (left)
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 that are 
already playing when it is pressed. Press the pedal immediately before you 
play the target notes.)
With the Vibraphone and Jazz Organ voices, this pedal turns vibrato on and 
off or toggles the speed of vibrato. (See page 82.)
