2 Sustain The Sustain effect, selectable for the Upper, Lower and Pedal voices, causes voices to gradually fade out when the keys are released. The sustain on/off and sustain length settings are independent for each keyboard, providing maximum expressive control. Press one of the SUSTAIN buttons, located to the left of the panel, to set the Sustain effect. The following display appears. The lamp of the button lights up to indicate that sustain is on. Press the button 3 again to turn sustain off. SUSTAIN UPPER (KNEE) LOWER PEDAL (KNEE) Voice Controls and Effects SUSTAIN Page UPPER:10 DATA CONTROL LOWER:10 PEDAL: 6 DATA CONTROL Upper/Lower/Pedal Determines the length of sustain applied to each keyboard. The display shows the current sustain length values for each keyboard. The values here must be set high enough for the sustain effect to be noticeable. Range: 0 - 12 NOTE: Sustain cannot be applied to the Lead voices. NOTE: If Knee Lever control of the Upper or Lower sustain has been turned on (folded down), pressing the Upper or Lower buttons here will not add sustain unless the Knee Lever is pushed. See page 101 for more information. NOTE: Remember that the SUSTAIN buttons are on/off switches. If you use them to simply check the sustain length values, you may unintentionally change the on/off status of the effect. Remember to check whether the sustain button lamps are on or off before you start to play. 40
