88 Note Scaled Hammer Action KeyboardAiR Sound SourceEbony and Ivory textured keysBlack wood tone finishBench Sound TechnologyUnprecedented Natural Reproduction of the Rich ExpressivePower and Resonance of an Acoustic PianoMulti-dimensional Morphing AiR Sound SourceThe characteristics of CASIOs Multi-dimensional Morphing AiR* Sound Source reflect thorough attention todetail in expressing the rich, resonating tones inherent to the piano. Thecapacity of the installed memory has been expanded to achieve a longer samplingduration and enhanced waveform data quality. The temporal changes in tone thatcreate sound you would expect only from a piano, beginning with the initialsound and leading into a beautiful extension until the sound eventually vanishes,are reproduced naturally.
*AiR = Acoustic and Intelligent Resonator Keyboard SystemNatural Playing Feel Approaching That of a Grand Piano FirmTouch That Converts the Players Thoughts into SoundTri-sensor Scaled Hammer Action Keyboard II, with a grandpiano’s unique sounding timing.The difference between the sound structures of a grand pianoand a digital piano appears as a difference in timing, from the moment theinstrument is played until the sound is audible. The new Tri-sensor ScaledHammer Action Keyboard II responds by incorporating a system with three sensorsthat detect touches of the keys sequentially.Simulated ebony and ivory keys with optimal fingertip fitfor playing easeThe Simulated ebony and ivory keys offers the luxurious feeland texture as well as the smooth touch of a grand piano keyboard. The minutelydetailed crimp surface finish inhibits finger slippage due to sweat and givesthe sensation of a perfect fingertip fit, even when playing for extended periods.
Lid Simulator reproducing the sound effects resulting froman open lidThe sound volume and quality change when the lid on a grandpiano is raised or lowered. The Lid Simulator reproduces the same acousticeffects for enhanced enjoyment with a digital piano. The acoustic effects ofopening and closing the lid are simulated in fine detail. The piano sound youare seeking as you play is always available for your enjoyment by selecting thedegree to which the lid is raised or lowered.
String Resonance resonator achieving deep, rich resonancewith 88 keysThe sound produced by an acoustic piano is not only thesound associated with the keys that are struck. Other strings with frequenciesclosely associated with those producing the sounds resonate as well, addingtheir sound to give the music a uniquely rich resonance. In ordinary digitalpianos, this string resonance effect is reproduced virtually with strings. TheMulti-dimensional Morphing AiR sound source takes a different approach,however, by adopting a string resonance system incorporating a stereoresonance simulator for all 88 keys. The resonance of the 88 keys is reproducedcompletely and naturally. The resonance realised by playing a single tone isdifferentiated from that realised by playing a chord to reproduce the resultingvariations in resonance in a natural manner. This even enables players toachieve varying resonances, controlling them at will by the strength of theirtouch, and thus to realise performances with the unique expressiveness of anacoustic piano.Key Off Simulator reproducing tonal variations resultingfrom finger release
The lengths of the reverberations and expressions a pianoproduces vary depending on the speed at which players release their fingersafter touching the keys. The new keyboard system incorporates a Key OffSimulator that reproduces these nuances resulting from key release naturally.Authentic reverberations that feel just like those of a grand piano areexpressed as a result.Key Off Simulator reproducing tonal variations resultingfrom finger releaseDamper Resonance*1achieving a more naturally beautifulresonance than a pedalThe deep, beautiful resonance resulting from the use of adamper pedal is also reproduced naturally by a stereo resonance simulatorinstalled on all 88 keys, an approach that differs from conventional simulatedreproduction employing effect processing. The attention to detail goes so faras to simulate the resonance created by the lifting of the dampers themselveswhen the pedal is pressed. A continuously variablesystem has been adopted for the damper pedal, moreover, reproducing even thesubtle changes in reverberation that occur in response to the delicate pressureexerted by partial pedal operation. This enables players to employ pedaloperation to achieve gracefully expressive performances.
