Undamped String Resonance
The dampers of an acoustic piano span almost the full width of the keyboard. However, the topmost 18 keys
(approximately 1.5 octaves) do not incorporate dampers, as the shorter strings for these treble notes decay quickly
and therefore do not need to be dampened.

As a result, the strings of these ‘undamped’ treble notes are free to vibrate in sympathetic resonance with those of
lower keys – independently of the damper pedal position – helping to enrich the sound with additional harmonics
and tonal colour.
The CN39 digital piano recreates this phenomenon, with the Undamped String Resonance setting allowing the
volume of this resonance sound to be adjusted.
* This Virtual Technician setting will affect acoustic piano sounds only.
1. Selecting the Undamped String Resonance setting
After entering the Virtual Technician menu (page 83):
Press the

Resonance setting.
2. Adjusting the Undamped String Resonance volume
Press the

or

buttons to increase or decrease the volume of
the Undamped String Resonance setting.
* The Undamped String Resonance volume can be adjusted within the
range of Off, 1~10, with higher values resulting in a more pronounced
resonance.
* To reset the Undamped String Resonance setting to the default value,
press the



buttons simultaneously.
* Any changes made to the Undamped String Resonance setting will
remain until the power is turned off.
* Preferred Undamped String Resonance settings can be stored to the
sound’s memory, or a Registration memory for convenient recall.
