Adjusting the Nuances of the Sound (Pickup Distance)
The typical Electric Piano uses pickups to convert the vibrations of the
tone bars into sound. By adjusting this parameter, you can obtain the
effect of changing the distance between the tone bars and the
pickups.
Equivalent tonal changes can also be produced for Electric Pianos
that don’t use tone bars.
Adjusting the Character of the Bell (Bell Character)
This adjusts the tonal character of the bell sound included in the
attack.
Parameter Value Description
Pickup
Distance
-2–0–+2
Lowering this value will move the tone
bars and pickups farther apart. This
makes it easier for you to produce varied
dynamics. Increasing this value will
produce a more powerful sound.
Parameter Value Description
Bell Rust 0– 15
Increasing this value will reduce
highfrequency content of the bell sound.
Bell Character -10–0–+10
Adjusting this value from 0 toward the
negative side will produce a heavier
character, while adjusting it toward the
positive side will produce a lighter
character.
