String Resonance
String Resonance refers to a phenomenon that exists in acoustic pianos whereby the strings of held notes
resonate ‘sympathetically’ with other notes of the same harmonic series.
The CS6 digital piano recreates this phenomenon, with the String Resonance setting allowing the volume of
this resonance to be adjusted.
