CHAPTER 12. SOUNDS: REED ELECTRIC PIANO.
This is a simulation of the Wurlitzer 200A electric piano. This particular model also included a built-in amplifier and a couple of oval
speakers, however the Seven only simulates the dry piano sound as found at the output jack. To obtain a sound similar to that
produced by the piano's internal speakers, the AMP simulator must be turned on.
The parameters you find in the EDIT PIANO page are:
 ATTACK LEVEL: Level of the attack wood noises.
 RELEASE LEVEL: Level of the noises produced by the dampers.
 RELEASE TIME: Slightly adjusts the release time. If dampers are worn out, the release time tends to be a bit longer.
 HAMMER HARDNESS: Adjust the hardness of the hammer tips. A higher value produces a snappier attack, a lower value produces
a softer attack. This parameter affects the whole aggressiveness of the sound.
 PEDAL NOISE LEVEL: Adjusts the level of the pedal noise.
 RESONANCES: Adjusts the level of the sympathetic resonances. As seen on the Tine EP, when the sustain pedal is held down, all
reeds are free to resonate as soon as a key is played.
A Wurlitzer 200A piano also has a built-in tremolo effect. This can be accomplished by turning on FX1, set the Mono Tremolo effect and
set the rate at about 6,5 Hz. Factory preset number 2 uses both the amp and the tremolo effect.
