A.Piano Edit Parameter

Adjusts the extent to which the top lid of the grand piano is open, which changes the brightness of the sound.

Increasing the value creates a brighter sound, with the piano lid opened wider.

On an acoustic piano, playing the key on the keyboard makes the strings of the keys already being played resonate. The function that simulates this resonance is called “string resonance”.
Larger values make the effect more prominent.

Adjusts the damper resonance (the sound of other strings vibrating in sympathy when you press the damper pedal) of the acoustic piano when the damper pedal is pressed.

Higher settings produce louder sympathetic resonance.

Adjusts the sound produced when the hammer of an acoustic piano strikes the string.

Higher settings will produce a louder sound of the hammer striking the string.

Adjusts the resonated sound of the duplex scale (aliquot) of the acoustic piano.
Higher settings make the sympathetic vibration louder.

MEMOWhat is a duplex scale (aliquot)?

This is a method of making the front and back parts of the string resonate.
As resonating overtones, these aliquot strings add richness and brilliance to the sound.
Since the front and back parts of the string do not have a damper (a mechanism that stops them from sounding), they keep resonating even after you play a note and then release it to stop the sound of the string that was struck.

Adjusts the resonance of the subtle sounds that occur when a key of an acoustic piano is released. Higher settings produce louder sympathetic resonance.

Adjusts the body resonance of the grand piano itself.

Higher values produce more body resonance.

When you play a chord, each of the notes that make up the chord is clearly defined to create a beautiful sound.

Increasing the value creates a sound with greater clarity.

Adjusts the damper noise of the acoustic piano sound (the sound of the damper releasing the strings when you press the damper pedal).
Higher values produce a louder string release sound.

Adjusts the resonance of the subtle sounds that occur when a key of an acoustic piano is released.

Higher settings produce louder sympathetic resonance.

Adjusts the stereo spread of the sound.

Adjusts the brightness of the sound.

Type of tuning used

OFF: no tuning is used

PRESET: the tuning curve that is preset for the V-STAGE

USER: Lets you set the tuning for each key on the keyboard.

Fine-tunes the tuning of each key in 0.1 cent increments, from -50.0 to +50.0 cents.

OFF: volume not used

PRESET: This is the volume that is preset for the V-STAGE.

USER: Sets the volume for each key on the keyboard.

Lower values make the notes sound quieter than other keys.

OFF: character not used

PRESET: This is the tonal character that is preset for the V-STAGE.

USER: Sets the tonal character for each key on the keyboard.

Higher settings produce a harder tone, and lower settings produce a softer tone.

Volume of the A.Piano part

Pan of the A.Piano part

MIDI channel on which data is received by the A.Piano part

Sets whether to use the part EQ (an equalizer applied to each part) (ON) or not (OFF).

Amount of boost/cut for the input to the EQ

Amount of low range boost/cut

Center frequency of the low range

Amount of boost/cut for the mid range

Center frequency of the mid range

Bandwidth of the mid-frequency range. Higher values make the bandwidth narrower.

Amount of high range boost/cut

Center frequency of the high range

The maximum velocity value available when you play the keyboard
When you lower this value, the volume does not increase too much even when you play the keyboard hard.

This may have no effect, depending on the selected tone.

Shifts the note numbers that are transmitted from the keyboard to the internal sound engine or external device.

Finely adjusts the pitch in units of one cent.

Sets whether the hold pedal works on the part (ON) or does not (OFF).

Sets whether program change messages are received (ON) or not (OFF).

Sets whether to receive Bank Select (ON) or not (OFF).

Sets whether pitch bend messages are received (ON) or not (OFF).

Sets whether to receive polyphonic aftertouch (ON) or not (OFF).

Sets whether to receive channel aftertouch (ON) or not (OFF).

Sets whether to receive modulation (ON) or not (OFF).

Sets whether to receive volume (ON) or not (OFF).

Sets whether to receive pan (ON) or not (OFF).

Sets whether to receive expression messages (ON) or not (OFF).

Sets whether to receive hold 1 (ON) or not (OFF).

Connector for output of MIDI messages sent by the Ext part of A.Piano

Sets the channel for transmitting MIDI messages sent by the Ext part of A.Piano.

Input the program number or bank select MSB/LSB as a number to make the external MIDI device switch between tones.

The value you set is transmitted when you switch scenes. Messages are not transmitted when “---” is selected.

Transmits volume, pan, and other MIDI messages to the external device.

The value you set is transmitted when you switch scenes. Messages are not transmitted when “---” is selected.

Key range (range of notes on the keyboard) used for outputting note messages transmitted by the Ext part of A.Piano

Specify the lower and upper limits for the key ranges to set.

Velocity lower limit (Lower) and upper limit (Upper) of the note messages transmitted by the Ext part of A.Piano

Adjusts the filter’s cutoff frequency. Increasing this value makes the sound brighter, and decreasing it makes the sound darker.

Emphasizes the portion of the sound in the region of the cutoff frequency, adding character to the sound. Excessively high settings can produce oscillation, causing the sound to distort. Increasing this value strengthens the character, and decreasing it weakens the character.

Adjusts the time over which the sound reaches its maximum volume after you press the key. Larger values make the attack gentler, and smaller settings make the attack sharper.

Adjusts the time over which the volume decreases from its maximum value. Larger settings of this value make the decay longer, and smaller settings make the decay shorter.

The time it takes after the key is released for a sound to become inaudible. Larger settings of this value make the sound linger, and smaller settings make the sound end more abruptly.

Sends a MIDI message (MONO/POLY) to set how the tone is to be played to the external device.
POLY: polyphonic
MONO: monophonic
The value you set is transmitted when you switch scenes. Messages are not transmitted when “---” is selected.
