String Resonance

String Resonance refers to a phenomenon that exists in acoustic pianos whereby the strings of held notes resonate

‘sympathetically’ with other notes of the same harmonic series.

The CN35 digital piano recreates this phenomenon, with the String Resonance setting allowing the volume of this

resonance to be adjusted.

* This Virtual Technician setting will affect acoustic piano sounds only.

the keys marked with a

z

symbol. In addition to the sound of each note played, it should also be possible to hear the strings of the

first ‘C’ key resonating ‘sympathetically’, thus demonstrating String Resonance.
