Roland FP-9 - Changing How the Pedals Work; Setting Whether to Apply Effects to the Lower Tone

Changing How the Pedals Work
When you connect a pedal to the Soft pedal jack, it normally works as a soft pedal (see p. 10). However, you can change it to make
it work as a sostenuto pedal or an expression pedal.
For use as a sostenuto pedal, connect the supplied DP-6 pedal. For use as an expression pedal, connect the separately available
EV-5 expression pedal.

effect is also applied to the lower tone.
