[. . . ] DAMPER RESONANCE When the sustain pedal (page 13) is depressed on an acoustic piano, all the dampers are lifted up allowing the strings to vibrate freely. When you play note or chord on the piano with the sustain pedal depressed, not only will the strings for the notes you played vibrate but other strings will vibrate in sympathetic resonance. Press the VOICING button while holding down the TOUCH and the TRANSPOSE buttons. You can adjust the volume of the damper resonance. FUNCTION BUTTONS 31 The display alternatively shows "dEF" (= Damper Effect) and a number that represents the value.

This is called "string resonance. " For example, when you play the keys shown in next page while holding down the C key, the string of the C key resonates and produces a sound. (Quietly press and hold down the C key, and then quickly tap each of the keys shown below. You can hear the string resonate. ) Function Buttons 32 KAWAI DIGITAL PIANO CE200 When you play a key while holding down an adjacent key, an acoustic piano produces a sound as a result of string resonance.
