Playing the Piano Using the VRM Lite Function The VRM (Virtual Resonance Modeling) Lite technology featured in this instrument reproduces sophisticated string resonance faithfully using a virtual musical instrument (physical modeling), and makes the sound more like that of a real acoustic piano. Since instantaneous resonance is made at the moment according to the state of the keyboard or pedal, you can vary the sound expressively by changing the timing of your pressing the keys, and the timing and depth of your pressing the pedal. This function affects only to the Piano Voices (page 20). To turn on/off the VRM Lite: While holding [PIANO/VOICE], press the C#3 key to turn the function on or the C3 key to turn the function off.
