1.VOICING

Voicing is a technique used by piano technicians to mold the character of a piano’s sound. The Voicing function lets you change the CA piano’s tone quality by choosing one of four types of voicings.

Bright Produces a brighter tone throughout the entire dynamic range. Dynamic The tone will change dramatically from mellow to bright with

your playing.

Mellow Produces a mellower tone throughout the entire dynamic range.

Normal Produces the normal timbre of an acoustic piano throughout the entire dynamic range. This is the preset value.

After selecting the “Voicing” function by pressing the MENU buttons, use the VALUE buttons to select a desired voicing type.

The LCD display shows the type of voicing currently

=Bright selected.

	The current voicing selection is global for all the preset tones. You can
	not have an individual setting for each tone.
◆ NOTE	While voicing is a technique used for optimizing the tone of an acoustic
	piano, this function can be used on all the sounds on the CA piano.

2.SYMPATHETIC RESONANCE

When the sustain pedal is depressed on an acoustic piano, all the dampers are lifted up allowing the strings to vibrate freely. When you play a note or chord on the piano with the sustain pedal depressed not only will the strings for the notes you played vibrate but other strings will vibrate in sympathetic resonance. The Sympathetic Resonance function simulates this phenomenon. You can select from three levels of resonance.

Off no resonance.

Normal simulates the natural resonance characteristics of an acoustic piano.

Deep Produces a more intense resonance.

After selecting the “Sympathetic Resonance” function by pressing the MENU buttons, use the VALUE buttons to select the desired setting.
