damper pedal

When a finger is taken away from a key, a “damper” pad stops the note from ringing out. The sustain pedal removes the dampers from the strings, allowing notes to ring out for longer, even when the keys are not held down anymore. That's why it is also called the “damper” pedal.

The damper pedal, sustain pedal, or sustaining pedal is to the right of the other pedals, and is used more often than the other pedals. It raises all the dampers off the strings so that they keep vibrating after the player releases the key.

The damper stops (dampens) the note from sounding as soon as you lift your finger off the key. When you want the note to sound even after you lift your finger off the key, you hold the damper pedal down.

The sustain pedal, also known as the damper pedal, is the most frequently used pedal on a piano. Positioned on the right side, this pedal is typically operated with the right foot. When you press down on the sustain pedal, it lifts the dampers from the strings, allowing the piano notes to resonate freely.

And then we put the foot back down to capture. This new chord. So it can sustain. Right until the next moment we play the next chord. Up down move hand down move hand hear how legato that.

And then between these chord changes you're going to lift. It. And replace it again real quick. And it gives you lovely sound i'll do one more.

On an acoustic piano, there are always three pedals:

• Right Pedal: Sustain or Damper Pedal. The sustain pedal, or the damper pedal, serves to extend the sound of the notes you are playing.
• Middle Pedal: Bass Sustain, Mute Pedal or Sostenuto.
• Left Pedal: Soft Pedal.

The the sound is now sustained. The right foot is often used for the demper pedal. The pedal on the left is called the soft pedal it gives a softer and lighter tone.

A sustain pedal or sustaining pedal (also called damper pedal, loud pedal, or open pedal) is the most commonly used pedal in a modern piano. It is typically the rightmost of two or three pedals.

There are three pedals on the grand piano – they are named, from left to right, the una corda, sostenuto, and damper pedal. The purpose of the pedals is to change the tone of the piano in some way.

The Half Damper feature reproduces the fine control of an acoustic piano's damper pedal to control the sustain over time: pressing the pedal fully down makes the sound last longer, while letting up on the pedal part of the way slightly mutes the sustained sound.

Sustain pedal The most important pedal is the Damper or Sustain pedal, usually found on the furthest right on acoustic instruments, and the only one for single pedal keyboards. The Damper/Sustain pedal controls how long the notes can be heard after playing them.
