Customizing the V-Piano’s sounds
The V-Piano contains twenty-four different “tones.”
These sounds are produced by a virtual piano inside the V-Piano. Unlike the way in which conventional digital pianos create sound by
processing samples recorded from an acoustic piano, the V-Piano uses digital signal processing to model the numerous elements that
make up an acoustic piano, and combines these to create the sound of the piano.
The twenty-four “tones” built into the V-Piano are not simple variations of the sound. Rather, they are forms of pianos constructed
within the V-Piano. By customizing these tones you can construct your very own piano.
Sound Lift
Range: 0–+100
This changes how the sound is produced when you play the keyboard softly.
You can adjust this to make the sound suitable for solo playing, or to prevent your sound from being buried by the other instruments
of your band.
With higher settings, the sound will be relatively loud even when you play lightly, preventing your sound from being lost in the band.

Soft Pedal Sense
Range: -100–+100
This adjusts the sensitivity of the soft pedal.
String Resonance
Range: -100–+100
This adjusts the sympathetic vibration of the strings that occurs
when you play the keyboard.
This simulates not only the sympathetic vibration that occurs
when you play a single note, but also the sympathetic vibration
that occurs in strings that are already sounding when you play
subsequent notes.
Increasing this value will produce a greater effect.
Damper Resonance
Range: -100–+100
This adjusts the damper resonance of an acoustic piano; i.e., the sound of other strings sympathetically vibrating when you play other
keys with the damper pedal held down.
Increasing this value will increase the loudness of the sympathetic vibration.
Soundboard Resonance
Range: -100–+100
This adjusts the sound of the soundboard resonating in response to the notes you play.
Increasing this value will increase the soundboard resonance.
Key Off Resonance
Range: -100–+100
This adjusts the amount of resonances such as an acoustic piano’s key-off sound (the subtle sound that occurs when you release a
key).
Increasing this value will increase the amount of resonance.
