Temperament
Here you can adjust the temperament of
your digital piano, for example to play music
from older music peroids with the greatest
authenticity. This is especially useful for the
harpsichord sound of your GEWA digital
piano.
- Equal: equal tuning (standard tuning at
modern pianos)
- Pythagorean: tuningsystem based on pure
fifths, suitable for music of antiquity and of
the middle ages.
- Pure Major: pure tuning for modal music,
like classical indian music.
- Pure Minor: pure tuning for modal music in a
minor key.
- Meantone: medium-tone tuning, based on
pure thirds, suitable for Renaissance and
Baroque music.
- Werck III: Well-tempered tuning system,
inspired by J.S. Bach‘s cycle “The well-
tempered piano“.
- Kirnb. III: another well-tempered tuning
system, often used for baroque orangs.
Root Note
In the menu item root note, the ‚“Root Note“
of the tuning temperament is defined. If, for
example, you choose a pure major tuning and
the musical piece is in E major, you should
move the root note to E.
Piano Noises
String Resonances
On an acoustic piano, the strings of some
notes resonate indirectly when a note is
played. This characteristic is simulated by
your GEWA digital piano and can be changed
in its intensity.
Damper Resonance
Due to the effect descibed above, especially
when playing with the pedal held down,
many resonances occur. They generate a
full, spatial sound. This phenomenon is also
simulated in the GEWA piano and its itensity
can be adjusted.
