Making Global and Other Important Settings - Function Pedal-controllable Functions VOLUME* Allows you to use a foot controller (FOOT PEDAL 2 only) to control the volume. SUSTAIN When the pedal is pressed notes played have a long sustain. Releasing the pedal immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes. SOSTENUTO If you press and hold the pedal here, only the first note will be sustained (the note that you played and held when pressing the pedal). This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes are played staccato. SOFT Pressing the pedal subtly reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played. It only applies to certain voices - PIANO, for example. GLIDE When the pedal is pressed the pitch changes, and then back to normal pitch when the pedal is released. PORTAMENTO The portamento effect (a smooth slide between notes) can be produced while the pedal is pressed. Portamento is produced when notes are played legato style (i.e., a note is played while the preceding note is still held). The portamento time can be set via the Mixing Console display (page 126). PITCHBEND* Bend notes up or down while pedal is pressed (FOOT PEDAL 2 only). Same as the PITCH BEND wheel. MODULATION* Applies a vibrato effect to notes played on the keyboard. The depth of the effect increases while pedal is pressed (FOOT PEDAL 2 only). Same as the MODULATION wheel. DSP VARIATION Same as the [VARIATION] button. HARMONY/ECHO Same as the [HARMONY/ECHO] button. VOCAL HARMONY (PSR-2100 only) Same as the [VOCAL HARMONY] button TALK (PSR-2100 only) Same as the [TALK] button. SCORE PAGE+ (PSR-2100 only) While the song is stopped, you can turn to the previous score page (one page only). SCORE PAGE- (PSR-2100 only) While the song is stopped, you can turn to the next score page (one page only). SONG START/STOP Same as the SONG [START/STOP] button. STYLE START/STOP Same as the STYLE [START/STOP] button. TAP TEMPO Same as the [TAP TEMPO] button. SYNCHRO START Same as the [SYNC. START] button. SYNCHRO STOP Same as the [SYNC. STOP] button. INTRO Same as the [INTRO] button. MAIN A Same as the [MAIN A] button. MAIN B Same as the [MAIN B] button. MAIN C Same as the [MAIN C] button. MAIN D Same as the [MAIN D] button. FILL DOWN A fill-in plays, automatically followed by the Main section of the button on the immediate left. FILL SELF Fill-in starts playing. FILL BREAK Break starts playing. FILL UP A fill-in plays, automatically followed by the Main section of the button on the immediate right. ENDING Same as the [ENDING/rit.] button. FADE IN/OUT Same as the [FADE IN/OUT] button. FING/ON BASS The pedal alternately switches between the Fingered and On Bass modes (page 65). BASS HOLD While the pedal is pressed, the Accompaniment Style bass note will be held even if the chord is changed. If the fingering is set to "FULL KEYBOARD," the function does not work. PERCUSSION MAIN ON/OFF The pedal plays a percussion instrument selected by the [4▲▼] - [8▲▼] buttons. You can use the keyboard to select the desired percussion instrument. Same as the [MAIN] button. LAYER ON/OFF Same as the [LAYER] button. LEFT ON/OFF Same as the [LEFT] button. OTS+ Calls up the next One Touch Setting. OTS- Calls up the previous One Touch Setting. * For best results, use the optional Yamaha FC7 Foot Controller. The parameters below correspond to buttons [2▲▼] - [8▲▼], and their availability depends on the selected control Type. For example, if SUSTAIN is selected as the Type, the parameters "HALF PEDAL POINT", "MAIN", "LAYER" and "LEFT" automatically appear in the display. SONG, STYLE, M.PAD, MIC (PSR-2100 only), LEFT, LAYER, MAIN These specify the part(s) that will be affected by the pedal. HALF PEDAL POINT* You can specify how far down you should press on the foot pedal until the damper effect starts working. This can be set for certain kinds of pedals, such as the foot pedal (YAMAHA FC7) (FOOT PEDAL 2 only). UP/DOWN When GLIDE or PITCH BEND is selected, this determines whether the pitch change goes up (is raised) or down (is lowered). RANGE When GLIDE or PITCH BEND is selected, this determines the range of the pitch change, in semitones. ON SPEED When GLIDE is selected, this determines the speed of the pitch change, when the pedal is pressed. OFF SPEED When GLIDE is selected, this determines the speed of the pitch change, when the pedal is released. KIT When PERCUSSION is assigned to the pedal, all available drum kits are shown here, letting you select the particular drum kit used for the pedal. PERCUSSION When PERCUSSION is assigned to the pedal, all sounds of the selected drum kit (in KIT above) are shown here. This determines the particular instrument sound assigned to the pedal. * For best results, use the optional Yamaha FC7 Foot Controller. PSR-2100/1100 143
