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 CN25 digital piano reproduces this sound, with the Damper Noise setting allowing the volume of this
sound to be changed.
* This setting will affect acoustic piano sounds only.
Changing the Damper Noise value
(Please refer to page 12 - 13 Operation Guide SOUND.)
Press and hold the SOUND SELECT button, then press the “Damper Noise” key, and finally press the key assigned to the desired value.
The Damper Noise value is changed within the range of Off, 1 - 3, with higher values resulting in a louder effect.

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 CN25 digital piano recreates this phenomenon, with the String Resonance setting allowing the volume
of this resonance to be changed.
* This setting will affect acoustic piano sounds only.
Demonstrating String Resonance
To experience the string resonance phenomenon, gently hold down the ‘C’ key as shown in the illustration below, then press any
of the keys marked with a
z
symbol. In addition to the sound of each note played, it should also be possible to hear the strings
of the first ‘C’ key resonating ‘sympathetically’, thus demonstrating String Resonance.
