Technology

The pRP6 features a unique application of sound design technology patented by Generalmusic as “Damper Physical Model”.

Damper Physical Model

The damper pedal accurately simulates the effect of the dampers being moved closer to or further away from the strings of the piano. Because of this, effects such as partial or half damping can be achieved. The dampers can even be slowly “squeezed” back against the strings. When the damper pedal is depressed, the damper physical model will simulate the effect of sympathetic resonances being produced by the un-damped strings. Even if you are using a standard switch type pedal, you can hear the effect of the Damper Physical Model by comparing the sounds of notes played in the highest octave of the instrument with and without the damper pedal depressed.

Note: The Damper Physical Model is applied to the Grand Piano sound only.
