About Timbre Type

The tone selected by each part of this Instrument has a " Timbre Type " parameter that specifies the
type of sound source for the tone. As explained under " 20.1Tone Basic Parameters " , there are four
Timbre Types settings: Melody, LM Piano, Piano, and Drum. The operation for a received channel
message differs according to the Timbre Type.
• Timbre Type: Melody
This Timbre Type is for normal melody tones. The damper pedal performs on/off operations.
• Timbre Type: Piano
This Timbre Type is for piano tones. The decay rate of the voice being sounded is seamlessly altered
in accordance with the damper pedal position. The method for producing sound in response to the
note messages also is different from that of the melody Timbre Type, and operation is optimized
for piano.
• Timbre Type: LM (Linear Morphing) Piano
This Timbre Type is for Linear Morphing piano tones. The decay rate of the voice being sounded
and Damper Resonance effect characteristics are seamlessly altered in accordance with the damper
pedal position. The method for producing sound in response to the note messages also is different
from that of the melody Timbre Type, and operation is optimized for piano.
