Damper Resonance

Pressing the damper pedal of an acoustic piano raises all dampers, allowing the strings to vibrate freely. When a

note or chord is played on the piano with the sustain pedal pressed, not only will the strings of the notes played

vibrate, but also the strings of other notes, vibrating in sympathetic resonance.

The CA97/CA67 digital piano recreates this phenomenon, with the Damper Resonance setting allowing the volume

of this resonance sound to be adjusted.

* This Virtual Technician setting will affect acoustic piano sounds only.

1. Selecting the Damper Resonance setting

After entering the Virtual Technician menu (page 80):

Press the

d or c buttons to select the Damper Resonance

setting.

2. Adjusting the Damper Resonance volume

Press the

e or f buttons to increase or decrease the volume of

the Damper Resonance setting.

* The Damper Resonance volume can be adjusted within the range

of Off, 1~10, with higher values resulting in a more pronounced

resonance.

* To reset the Damper Resonance setting to the default value, press the

e and f buttons simultaneously..

* Any changes made to the Damper Resonance setting will remain until

the power is turned off.

* Preferred Damper Resonance settings can be stored to the sound’s

memory, or a Registration memory for convenient recall. Please refer

to pages 81 and 33 for more information.

3. Exiting the Damper Resonance setting

Press the FUNCTION button (BACK) to exit the Damper

Resonance setting and return to the Function Menus screen.
