Parameters from the Piano Type Unit
Each of the different types of piano that your CP1 can replicate uses a different mechanism to realize its characteristic
sound, and for that reason, is configured using different parameters. In the following table, you will find a description of
all of the parameters used with different piano types.
NOTE
For more details on the specific parameters associated with each different type of piano, see the Piano block’s parameter list in the
Data List
booklet.

Description
Decay
(Decay Time)
All types
This parameter is used to adjust how fast a note decays while the key is
being held down.
Setting values:
-16 to +16
Release
(Release Time)
All types
This parameter is used to adjust how fast a note decays after the
corresponding key is released.
Setting values:
-16 to +16
Key-off
(Key-off Noise Level)
All except DXEP 1 to DXEP 4
This parameter is used to recreate the sound of dampers pressing
against the strings when you remove your fingers from the keyboard. In
specific terms, the
Key-off
parameter sets the volume of this key-off noise.
Setting values:
-16 to +16
Rls Tone
(Release Tone)
DXEP 1 to DXEP 4
This parameter is used to adjust the tone of notes when you remove your
fingers from the keyboard.
Setting values:
0 to 16
DampReso
(Damper Resonance Level)
CF 3Band, CF 2Band, S6
3Band, S6 2Band
This parameter can be used in conjunction with a connected Sustain
pedal to recreate the sound of strings resonating in response to pressing
of an acoustic piano’s damper pedal. In specific terms, the
DampReso
parameter sets the depth of this resonance
Setting values:
-16 to +16
StrkPos
(Striking Position)
71Rd I, 73Rd II, 75Rd I,
78Rd II, Dyno, 69Wr, 77Wr
This parameter is used to replicate the effect of changing the position at
which the strings are struck by the hammers.
Setting values:
Top3 to Top1, Default, or Rear1 to Rear3
AtkTimbr
(Attack Timbre)
DXEP 1 to DXEP 4
This parameter is used to adjust the tone of the attack portion of notes.
Setting values:
Soft2, Soft1, Default, Hard1, or Hard2
Hammer
(Hammer Stiffness)
All except DXEP 1 to DXEP 4
This parameter is used to adjust the apparent softness or hardness of the
piano sound in much the same way as if softer or harder hammers were
used to strike the strings.
Setting values:
Soft2, Soft1, Normal, Hard1, or Hard2
OscDetun
(Oscillator Detune)
DXEP 1 to DXEP 4
This parameter is used to adjust the degree to which vibrato is applied.
Setting values:
-16 to +16
