3) STRING RESONANCE

String Resonance refers to a phenomenon present among acoustic pianos, whereby the strings of held notes

resonate ‘sympathetically’ with other notes of the same harmonic series. The String Resonance function of the

CA111 piano attempts to simulate this phenomenon.

… Step 1

Press the Menu button repeatedly, or press and hold the Menu button then press the

S or T Value buttons,

until the String Resonance function is selected.

The LED indicator for the Menu button will turn on.

The String Resonance menu function will be shown in the

LCD display.

The level of resonance will be shown on the second line

of the LCD display.

… Step 2

Press the

S or T Value buttons to select the desired string resonance level.

¡ A string resonance level of ‘1’ produces a very subtle effect, while the maximum level of ‘10’ creates a strong,

more pronounced resonance. Setting the string resonance to ‘Off’ will disable the function entirely.

… Step 3

Play the piano, holding down one key while playing other keys of the keyboard.

The degree of resonance will vary, depending on the value

specifi ed in Step 2.

… Step 4

Press the Sound button to exit the String Resonance menu.

The LED indicator for the Menu button will turn off.

The selected sound will be shown in the LCD display.

Alternatively, press the Menu button again to select other menu functions.
