Damper Noise

When the damper pedal of an acoustic piano is pressed and released, it is often possible to hear the sound of the
damper head touching and releasing the strings.
The CA97/CA67 digital piano reproduces this sound, with the Damper Noise setting allowing the volume of this
sound to be adjusted. The speed at which the damper pedal is pressed will also influence the prominence of the
damper noise, with fast pedalling creating a very pronounced sound.
