INTRODUCTION

The ELECTRIC PIANO is designed to provide the player with sounds, effects and most
importantly, the expressiveness of mechanical electric pianos. The timbre of the sounds created
by the ELECTRIC PIANO varies greatly and smoothly over the entire key velocity range. The
effects provided can be used to achieve the sounds heard in popular recordings of the past or
create new sound innovations.

The ELECTRIC PIANO is real easy to use. It requires absolutely no programming. There are front
panel rotary controls for volume, overdrive, effects rate and depth, transpose and preset. It has
built-in analog effects such as: Chorus, Tremolo, and Wah-wah. The Wah-wah effect can be
controlled by key velocity, modulation wheel or from an external foot controller. 

There are 32 presets in the ELECTRIC PIANO. The first 17 are basic keyboard sounds without
effects and the remaining 15 presets are popular combinations of sounds and effects. The first 22
presets are selectable via the front panel: all 32 can be selected through MIDI. In addition, the
ELECTRIC PIANO can operate in three part multi-timbral mode for any three adjacent channels as
well as MIDI OMNI ON mode (all channels). There are high-level stereo audio outputs, CH2
output may be used to drive high-impedance stereo headphones. All this makes the ELECTRIC
PIANO very easy and intuitive to use.
