Damper Resonance
Depressing the sustain 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 depressed, not only will the strings of the
notes played vibrate, but also the strings of other notes, vibrating in sympathetic resonance.
The ES100 digital piano recreates this phenomenon, with the Damper Resonance setting allowing the volume
of this resonance to be changed.
