Virtual Technician
An experienced piano technician is essential to fully realise the potential of an acoustic piano. As well as meticulously
tuning each note, the technician performs regulation and voicing adjustments that allow a fine instrument to truly sing.
Virtual Technician functions simulate such refinements digitally. The Voicing feature shapes tonal characteristics, while
7
the Touch function allows the performer to select the level of touch sensitivity suitable for his/her playing style.
The String Resonance feature causes held notes to resonate 'sympathetically' with other notes of the same harmonic
series, while Damper Resonance recreates a similar phenomenon, whereby sympathetic and adjacent notes resonate
while the damper pedal is depressed. Finally, the Key Off Effect recreates the sound of bass hammers returning to their
strings following a rapid note release.
