Components - Waves Electric 88 Piano User Manual

The richness of the instrument stems in part from the relationship between the tines and the tone bar. The response of the tines
dominates when the tines are struck by the hammer, during the attack period of the note. This sound is bell-like. The tone bar
dominates the sustain of the note. Its sounds are very sinusoidal, with varying degrees of harmonic distortion. You can control the
balance between the tines and the tone bar to influen e the effect: turn up the tines to create a more bell-like start and a more
punchy attack, or turn them down to resemble a more mellow and worn instrument.
Electric 88 Piano is powered by WSE, the Waves Sampler Engine, a state-of-the-art multi-sample engine designed to deliver solid,
