Explanation
You can change the playing feel (touch) of the keyboard.
The default value of 50 provides a key touch that is closest to that of an acoustic piano. Higher
settings make the keyboard feel heavier. With the "Fix, " notes sound at a fixed volume regardless of
how strongly you play the keyboard.
The reverberation that is characteristic of a performance in a concert hall can be added to the sound.
Higher values produce deeper ambience; lower values produce shallower ambience.
* The reverberation effect is not applied to audio files.
You can apply a Headphones 3D Ambience effect that creates the impression that the sound is
being heard from the piano itself even when you're using headphones.
* The Headphones 3D Ambience effect applies only to piano sounds; it does not apply to other
sounds.
* The reverberation effect is not applied to audio files.
You can adjust the brightness of the sound when you play the keyboard or when you play back a
song. Higher values produce brighter sounds.
When playing in an ensemble with other instruments, you can adjust the reference pitch of this
piano so that you will harmonize correctly with the other instruments. The reference pitch is usually
expressed as the frequency that is heard when you play the middle A (A4) note. The action of
matching the reference pitch to other instruments is called "tuning. "
