Cautions for Piano mode
• When you select Piano mode, the multi-effect setting will be
“78:SYMPATHETIC RESONANCE.”
• Patch editing will not be possible.
• If you use a Hold pedal, we recommend that you use a Roland
DP-8. If the DP-8 is used, you can control the amount of
resonance by the depth to which you press the pedal.
• If no operation is performed for a certain length of time (2–3
seconds) the window will close automatically.
