Decay Time

When playing an acoustic grand piano, the length of the instrument influences the speed at which held notes decay,
with longer grand pianos (i.e. longer strings) characterised by longer decay times.
The CS10 digital piano attempts to simulate this characteristic, with the Decay Time setting allowing the length of
decay while keys are pressed to be adjusted.
* This Virtual Technician setting will affect all sounds.
