Tone and Performance Settings
The HPi-6 is capable of reproducing a variety of the acoustic piano’s
distinctive characteristics. You can also adjust these to suit your own
taste and style.
Refer to “Making the Settings” (previous section) for the procedure.
NOTE
This setting is valid when some piano sounds are selected.
■ Opening/Closing the Piano Lid (Lid)
This simulates the actual changes in sound that occur when the lid of
a grand piano is set at different heights.
■ Adjusting Resonance when the
Damper Pedal is Depressed
(Damper Resonance)
You can adjust this resonance (Damper Resonance) when the
damper pedal is depressed.
On an acoustic piano, holding down the damper pedal will allow the
remaining strings to resonate in sympathy with the sounds that you
played from the keyboard, adding a rich resonance. The resonance is
called “Damper Resonance.”
■ Changing How Rapidly Sounds Are
Expressed According to the Force Used
to Play the Keys (Hammer Response)
You can adjust the timing with which sounds are produced
according to the force used to play the keys.
When a key is pressed on an acoustic piano, it causes a hammer to
move and strike the strings, producing sound. The hammers move
more slowly when the keys are played gently, meaning that sounds
are produced just slightly later than when you play the keyboard
with greater force.
If the Hammer Response function is turned on, the time between the
moment you press a key until the sound is heard will change
depending on the strength with which you play. As you play more
softly, this time will become longer.
Press the cursor up or
down button
The selected setting is
switched vertically.
Press the cursor left or
right button
