Voice description
This sound was sampled from a full concert grand piano. 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.
