It uses different samples depending on the strength of your playing and produces smoother tonal changes. Suitable not only for classical compositions but also for piano pieces of any style. Warm and soft piano sound. Good for playing ballads. Bright piano sound. Clear tone helps the sound to "cut through" when playing in an ensemble. An electronic piano sound created by FM synthesis. Good for standard popular music. The sound of an electric piano using hammer-struck metallic "tines." Soft tone when played lightly, and an aggressive tone when played hard. The definitive instrument for baroque music. Since harpsichord uses plucked strings, there is no touch response. There is, however, a characteristic additional sound when the keys are released. Vibraphone played with relatively soft mallets. The tone becomes more metallic the harder you play. This is a typical pipe organ sound (8 feet + 4 feet + 2 feet). Good for sacred music from the Baroque period. The sound of a "tonewheel" type electric organ. Often heard in jazz and rock music. The rotary speed of the rotary speaker effect can be switched by using the left pedal. Stereo-sampled, large-scale strings ensemble with realistic reverb. Try combining this Voice with piano in the Dual mode. 18 YDP-S52 Owner's Manual
