Reverberation

you defeat the

Ambience effect

Even if the Ambience effect is off, the acoustic piano’s own

resonance remains.
You can reduce this reverberation by adjusting the Cabinet

Resonance.

p. 15

The sound

of the higher

notes suddenly

changes from a

certain key

This simulates the characteristics of an acoustic piano, and is

not a malfunction.
The sound will change where there is a change in the number

of strings per key or a transition from wound strings to

unwound strings.

If you also hear it through headphones: It may be that the

unit has malfunctioned. Please contact your dealer or a

or other surfaces.

Keep the volume down.

Move away from the objects that are resonating.
