FUNCTION SETTINGS
3) VOICING
Voicing is a technique used by piano technicians to mould the character of a piano’s sound.
This function allows the tonal quality of the ES6 digital piano to be set to one of six voicing types:
Normal
The normal tone character of an acoustic piano throughout the entire dynamic range. This
is the default voicing setting.
Mellow 1
A softer (mellow) tone character throughout the entire dynamic range.
Mellow 2
Softer than Mellow 1.
Dynamic
The tone character will change dramatically from mellow to bright, depending on how soft or
hard the piano is played.
Bright 1
A brighter tone character throughout the entire dynamic range.
Bright 2
Brighter than Bright 1.
Step 1
Press and hold the TOUCH and TRANSPOSE buttons, then press the E.PIANO button.
The LED indicators for the TOUCH, TRANSPOSE, and E.PIANO buttons will start to fl ash, indicating that the
Voicing function has been selected.
The name of the function ‘Vic’ (Voicing) and the current settings will be shown in the LED display.
Step 2
Press the
T
or
S
VALUE/BALANCE buttons to select the desired voicing type.
Step 3
Press one of the TOUCH, TRANSPOSE, SOUND SELECTION, EFFECTS, or REVERB buttons to exit
Voicing setting mode.
The LED indicators for the TOUCH, TRANSPOSE, and E.PIANO buttons will stop fl ashing.
Any changes made to the Voicing setting will remain until the power is turned off.
When the power is turned off, the Voicing setting will return to the default type of ‘Normal’, however it is possible to use
the Memory Backup function to store the preferred Voicing type. Please refer to the instructions on page 62 for more
information.
