SETTING UP THE SOFT PEDAL
Pressing will display this screen:
This final page in the modulation section allows you to set the response of the CD3000XL to
the soft pedal (MIDI controller 67). This can be very useful in obtaining better expression for
piano sounds. The parameters are very simple and are as follows.
The parameter determines how the volume of the sound will be
affected when the pedal is pressed. The higher the number, the greater the amount of volume
reduction.
The parameter allows you to soften the attack of the sound and affects the
attack times of the envelope generators. Again, the higher the value, the greater the effect.
For many acoustic instruments, especially string and woodwind sounds, when played quietly,
their attack times also change slightly so this parameter can be put to good use.
The final parameter, , determines by how much the filter cutoff frequency will
be reduced when the pedal is pressed thereby simulating the effect that acoustic instruments
generally lose some upper harmonics when played quietly.
