More about tones
Polyphony
This digital piano can play up to 64 notes at the same time.
Note, however, that the tones listed below are capable of only
32-note polyphony. GRAND PIANO 1, BRIGHT PIANO,
HONKY-TONK, ELEC PIANO 1, HARPSICHORD, STRINGS
1, CHOIR, SYNTH-PAD, RIDE ACO BASS
Touch Response
The touch response feature causes changes in the volume and
the sound of the tone in accordance with how much pressure
you apply to the keyboard, just like an acoustic piano.
Touch response affects the HARPSICHORD tone only slightly,
because the original musical instrument normally produces
the same sound, no matter how much pressure is applied.
Digitally Sampled Tones
The tones of this digital piano are produced using digitally
recorded samples of actual musical instruments. Not all of
the instruments, however, can produce tones across the entire
range played by this digital piano (A0 through C8). In such a
case, digital recordings are used for the range that actually
can be produced by the original instrument, and synthesized
tones are used for notes that cannot be produced naturally.
Because of this, you may notice very slight differences
between natural notes and synthesized notes in sound quality
and in results produced when using effects. These differences
are normal and do not indicate malfunction.
Adjusting the Brilliance of a Tone
You can use the BRILLIANCE slider to adjust the clarity and
sharpness of a tone to suit your music and personal
preferences.
1.
Slide the BRILLIANCE slider left and right to
adjust the brilliance of a tone to the level that
you want.
• Moving the slider towards MELLOW produces a
more mellow sound, while moving it toward BRIGHT
produces a brighter sound.
