(PIANO sounds)
1. Voicing
This parameter attempts to recreate the technique of adjusting the action, hammers and strings of an acoustic piano, allowing the
tonal character and dynamics of the MP7’s piano sounds to be dramatically altered.
Voicing types
Voicing Type
Description
Normal
The normal tonal character of an acoustic piano throughout the entire dynamic range.
Mellow 1
A softer, more mellow tonal character throughout the entire dynamic range.
Mellow 2
An even soften tonal character than Mellow 1.
Dynamic
A tonal character that changes dramatically from mellow to bright, depending on the strength of key strike.
Bright 1
A bright tonal character throughout the entire dynamic range.
Bright 2
An even brighter tonal character than Bright 1.
2. Stereo Width
This parameter adjusts the width of the stereo sound.
3. String Resonance
This parameter adjusts the volume of the 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.
4. Damper Resonance
This parameter adjusts the volume of the damper resonance.
Depressing the damper pedal of an acoustic piano raises all dampers,
allowing the strings to vibrate freely. When a note or chord is played on
the piano with the sustain pedal depressed, not only will the strings of
the notes played vibrate, but also the strings of other notes, vibrating in
sympathetic resonance.
5. Key-off Effect
This parameter adjusts the volume of the key-off effect.
When playing an acoustic piano – particularly in the bass region of the
keyboard – if a key is played with force and released quickly, it is often
possible to hear the faint sound of the damper touching the strings
immediately before the vibrations are stopped.
6. Damper Noise
This parameter adjusts the volume of the damper noise.
When the damper pedal is depressed and released, it is often possible to
hear the sound of the damper head touching and releasing the strings.
7. Hammer Delay
This parameter adjusts the delay of the hammer striking the
string when playing with pianissimo.
8. Fall-back Noise
This parameter adjusts the volume of the noise heard when the
keyboard action ‘falls back’ after a key is released.
9. Topboard
This parameter changes the position of the piano’s topboard.
When playing an acoustic grand piano, the position of the instrument’s
topboard (lid) affects both the volume and ‘openness’ of the tone
produced. A fully open topboard allows sound waves to reflect off the
polished lid surface and project into the room, while a closed lid has the
opposite effect, resulting in a darker, more opaque tone.
