Connecting audio components
You can use the phones jacks ( ) as line-out jacks to connect powered speakers or audio
components to the keyboard. For such connections, use commercially-available cables that
are appropriate for the components that you're using.
Before connecting audio components, make sure that you turn off the power to the unit
and the audio components. Otherwise, damage to the unit or other components may occur.
The LP-180 features 10 preset sounds.
Pressing the SOUND button repeatedly will change the sound in the following sequence.

sound to Piano 1.

Connect the pedal unit (included) to the connector on the underside of the keyboard. Once the pedal
unit is connected you can effectively express your performances using the damper, sostenuto and
soft functions.
Soft pedal
Pressing this pedal will make the tone softer. You can control the softness of the tone de-
pending on how far down you press the pedal ("half-pedaling").
Sostenuto pedal
Pressing this pedal will apply the damper effect only to the notes that are already being
held down on the keyboard. Only these notes will be sustained. The damper effect will not
be applied to any additional notes that you play while holding down the Sostenuto pedal.
Damper pedal
Pressing this pedal will sustain the sound, producing a richly resonant decay. In addition,
you can change the applied conditions of the damper according to the depth that the tone
pedal of piano 1 and 2 is pressed. ("half-pedaling").
