. Hammer Delay
When playing pianissimo passages using an acoustic piano, there may be a perceived delay between a key being
pressed and the hammer striking the strings.
This instrument recreates this delay, with the Hammer Delay setting allowing the delay length to be adjusted.
While the default value of “Off” is intended to replicate a well-regulated concert grand piano, with an immediate
connection between the keyboard and hammers, some players may find it desirable to introduce a minor delay, in
order to mimic different types of piano or instruments with a slightly worn keyboard action.
* This Virtual Technician setting will affect acoustic piano sounds only.

Adjusting the Hammer Delay value
Long press and drag the slider to adjust the value of the Hammer
Delay setting.
* The Hammer Delay value can be adjusted within the range of Off,
1~10, with higher values resulting in an increased delay.
* Any changes made to the Hammer Delay setting will remain until the
power is turned off.
* Preferred Hammer Delay settings can be stored to the sound’s memory
(in Sound mode) or a Favorite memory for convenient recall. For
more information, please refer to “1. Storing and Selecting Favorite
memories” on page 79 and “Storing the Virtual Technician settings”
on page 98.
