4. VOICING
Voicing is a technique used by piano technicians to mold the character of a piano's sound. The
Voicing function lets you change the EP2 piano's tone quality by choosing one of four types of
voicing,
Bright Produces a brighter tone throughout the entire
dynamic range.
Dynamic The tone will change dramatically from mellow to
bright with your playing.
Mellow Produces a mellower tone throughout the entire
dynamic range.
Normal (When the LED indicator is turned off)
Produces the normal tone character of an acoustic piano
throughout the entire dynamic range. This is the default
voicing.
(1) To change from the normal voicing press the Voicing button. The LED indicator of the Voicing
button will be turned on to indicate that the piano is now using a different voicing setting.
(2) Use the Value buttons to change the type of voicing while the Voicing button is held down. —
(3) Press the Voicing button again to return to the normal voicing setting.
The current voicing selection is global for all the preset tones. You cannot have an individual
setting for each tone.
The voicing setting defaults to "Normal" each time the power is turned off. You can use the memory
backup (page 28 ), to save your selected voicing. This way your current voicing selection will
remain even after the power is turned off.
NOTE:
While voicing is a technique used for optimizing the tone of an acoustic piano, this function can be
used on all the sounds on the EP2 piano.
