Press the Settings button in the Performance View to open the Settings window. The Settings

Resonance and Noise.
3.4.1 The Room Tab
The settings in the Room tab let you add a room simulation of your choice to the piano sound.
The dimensions of a room and the type of surface materials have a big impact on the sound
of the piano. For example, the sound of a piano played in a large concert hall is very differ-
ent to that experienced when the same piano is played in a small studio space. Each type
of room creates a unique sound and has its own ambience, because of the way sound waves
are reected by the room.
You can adjust the type and feel of the room using three settings: Digital Ambience, Convolution
Reverb and Stereo Image. Each of these effects is turned on and off by pressing the button
next to the effect name.
