Voicing
On an acoustic piano, the shape, density, and texture of the hammers all inuence the tonal character of the
instrument’s sound. Technicians utilise a variety of tools such as needles, les, and brushes to manipulate
these hammer felts, with the ultimate goal of achieving a balanced tonal character across the keyboard.
The Voicing setting recreates various hammer properties, allowing the overall tonal character of the ES110
digital piano to be set to one of four dierent types.
While the default ‘Normal’ voicing setting should be appropriate for a broad range of musical genres, it may
be desirable to select a softer, more mellow tonal character for romantic pieces, or a brighter, more aggressive
tone for modern styles.
