Release
The release parameter determines the amount of damper applied after the keys are
released. Extremely long settings allow you to play the piano like a vibraphone.
Bell
Bell determines the level of the inharmonic treble portion of the tone. It is useful for
emulating a number of classic and typical electric piano sounds.
Damper
This parameter sets the level of the damper noise caused by the damping felt hitting
the vibrating tine.
Stereo
If Stereo is set to high values, bass notes sound from the left, and treble notes from the
right channel. The effect is nice and spacey, but it is not typical for vintage electric
piano sounds. Even with acoustic pianos, the effect is less intense than one might
expect.
Note: The stereo control is not restricted to the bass sound from the left, treble from
the right use outlined above. Using Logic’s plug-ins, you can process the upper notes
differently to the lower ones. With appropriate signal processing routings, you can, for
example, add some bass via an EQ in the left “bass” channel and apply a little echo to
the higher notes. As another option, you could listen to the summed post-effect signals
in mono.
