CP4 STAGE/CP40 STAGE Owner’s Manual 17
Setting Up
Connecting Pedals
Two different types of pedal can be used with your stage
piano — foot switches, such as the bundled FC3A and
the optional FC4A and FC5, and a foot controller like the
optional FC7. Both are connected via the rear panel,
although the jacks used and the corresponding functions
differ as described below.
Foot switches
The FC3A Foot Switch that comes with your stage piano
is connected via the [SUSTAIN] FOOT SWITCH jack. It
functions in the same way as the damper pedal of an
acoustic piano, allowing notes played while it is operated
to sustain for longer than normal after you release the
corresponding keys.
The FC3A can also function as a half-damper pedal, and
in such a case, the damper effect will depend on the
degree to which the pedal is operated. You can activate
the half-damper playing technique as follows:
Press [UTILITY]; select 03: Controller using [u] and [d]
and press [ENTER]; set Sustain to “FC3 Half On” using
[-1/NO] and [+1/YES]; press [EXIT] several times to
return to the Performance screen (page 22).
An optional FC4A or FC5 Foot Switch can be connected
via the [ASSIGNABLE] FOOT SWITCH jack so that
various functions can be assigned to it. This allows you to
control the assigned parameter by foot.
NOTE Refer to the Reference Manual (pdf) for details on how to
assign a parameter to an FC4A or FC5 Foot Switch.
Foot controllers
Used to control an assigned parameter, an FC7 Foot
Controller (sold separately) is connected via the [1] and
[2] FOOT CONTROLLER jacks on the CP4 STAGE or via
the [FOOT CONTROLLER] jack on the CP40 STAGE. This
allows you to control assigned parameter(s) such as Part
volume(s) by foot.
NOTE Refer to the Reference Manual (pdf) for details on how to
assign a parameter to an FC7 Foot Controller.
