This owner’s manual contains important information regarding the usage and operation of the KCP90 digital piano. Please read all sections carefully, keeping this manual handy for future reference. Preface AboutthisOwner’sManual Before attempting to play this instrument, please read the Preparation Before Use section from page 10 of this owner’s manual. This section explains the name and function of each part, how to connect the power cable, and how to turn on the power. The Basic Operations section (page 14) provides an overview of the instrument’s most commonly used functions, allowing the KCP90 digital piano to be enjoyed almost immediately after being connected, while the Accompaniment Styles section (page 24) explains how the instrument’s Styles feature can be used to enhance performances with backing accompaniments. The Recorder section (page 31) provides instructions on how to record and play back pieces stored in the instrument’s internal memory, while the Settings section (page 35) details the various options and settings that be used to adjust the sound and operation of the instrument. Finally, the Appendix section (page 48) includes assembly instructions, troubleshooting recommendations, lists for all internal sounds and styles, as well as chord charts, MIDI reference information, and full specification details. KCP90 Feature Highlights Advanced Hammer Action IV-F weighted-key keyboard action The Advanced Hammer Action IV-F (AHA IV-F) keyboard action has been developed to represent the distinctive touch of an acoustic grand piano, with its remarkable springless design providing consistent upward and downward motion for a smooth, natural, piano playing experience. Moreover, just as acoustic pianos utilise heavier bass hammers and lighter treble hammers, the AHA IV-F keyboard action also employs different hammer weights, appropriately graded for each playing range. Such attention to detail allows greater stability during fortissimo passages, while preserving delicate pianissimo control, to satisfy the demands of even the most discerning pianist. Harmonic Imaging™ (HI) sound technology, 88-key piano sampling The KCP90 digital piano captures the beautiful sound of Kawai’s highly acclaimed hand-built concert grand piano, with all 88 keys of this exceptional instrument meticulously recorded, analysed and faithfully reproduced using proprietary Harmonic Imaging™ technology. This unique process accurately recreates the broad dynamic range of the original grand piano, affording pianists an extraordinary level of expressiveness ranging from the softest pianissimo to the strongest, boldest fortissimo. Additional reverberation effects that simulate the acoustic environment of a recital room, stage, or concert hall are also applied, resulting in a rich, vibrant piano tone that delivers breathtaking realism and authenticity. Excellent selection of additional instrument sounds Supplementing the realistic acoustic piano voices, the KCP90 also features an excellent selection of additional instrument sounds, ranging from electric pianos and drawbar and church organs, to strings, brass, and woodwind instruments, inviting musicians to add greater variety to their performances. Furthermore, the Dual playing mode also allows two different sounds, such as grand piano and strings, to be layered together. This combined sound can then be adjusted quickly and easily using the real-time balance slider. Professional accompaniment styles The KCP90’s Styles feature provides 100 professionally arranged backing accompaniments to support a range of musical genres. Complete with intro, fill-in, and ending phrases and a selection of rock, jazz, funk, and Latin styles, creative players can enjoy breathing new life into their existing repertoire at the touch of a button. 3 Important Safety Instructions Important Safety Instructions SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE CAUTION OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO DO NOT OPEN RAIN OR MOISTURE.

  • The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a New Look at Musical Instrument Classification
    The KNIGHT REVISION of HORNBOSTEL-SACHS: a new look at musical instrument classification by Roderic C. Knight, Professor of Ethnomusicology Oberlin College Conservatory of Music, © 2015, Rev. 2017 Introduction The year 2015 marks the beginning of the second century for Hornbostel-Sachs, the venerable classification system for musical instruments, created by Erich M. von Hornbostel and Curt Sachs as Systematik der Musikinstrumente in 1914. In addition to pursuing their own interest in the subject, the authors were answering a need for museum scientists and musicologists to accurately identify musical instruments that were being brought to museums from around the globe. As a guiding principle for their classification, they focused on the mechanism by which an instrument sets the air in motion. The idea was not new. The Indian sage Bharata, working nearly 2000 years earlier, in compiling the knowledge of his era on dance, drama and music in the treatise Natyashastra, (ca. 200 C.E.) grouped musical instruments into four great classes, or vadya, based on this very idea: sushira, instruments you blow into; tata, instruments with strings to set the air in motion; avanaddha, instruments with membranes (i.e. drums), and ghana, instruments, usually of metal, that you strike. (This itemization and Bharata’s further discussion of the instruments is in Chapter 28 of the Natyashastra, first translated into English in 1961 by Manomohan Ghosh (Calcutta: The Asiatic Society, v.2). The immediate predecessor of the Systematik was a catalog for a newly-acquired collection at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Brussels. The collection included a large number of instruments from India, and the curator, Victor-Charles Mahillon, familiar with the Indian four-part system, decided to apply it in preparing his catalog, published in 1880 (this is best documented by Nazir Jairazbhoy in Selected Reports in Ethnomusicology – see 1990 in the timeline below).

Model-based digital pianos: from physics to sound synthesis Bal´azsBank, Member, IEEE and Juliette Chabassier∗yz October 12, 2018 Abstract Piano is arguably one of the most important instruments in Western music due to its complexity and versatility. The size, weight, and price of grand pianos, and the relatively simple control surface (keyboard) have lead to the development of digital counterparts aiming to mimic the sound of the acoustic piano as closely as possible. While most commercial digital pianos are based on sample playback, it is also possible to reproduce the sound of the piano by modeling the physics of the instrument. The pro- cess of physical modeling starts with first understanding the physical principles, then creating accurate numerical models, and finally finding numerically optimized signal processing models that allow sound synthesis in real time by neglecting inaudible phe- nomena, and adding some perceptually important features by signal processing tricks.

  • Transfer Learning for Piano Sustain-Pedal Detection
    Transfer Learning for Piano Sustain-Pedal Detection Beici Liang, Gyorgy¨ Fazekas and Mark Sandler Centre for Digital Music, Queen Mary University of London London, United Kingdom Email: fbeici.liang,g.fazekas,[email protected] Abstract—Detecting piano pedalling techniques in polyphonic music remains a challenging task in music information retrieval. While other piano-related tasks, such as pitch estimation and onset detection, have seen improvement through applying deep learning methods, little work has been done to develop deep learning models to detect playing techniques. In this paper, we propose a transfer learning approach for the detection of sustain- pedal techniques, which are commonly used by pianists to enrich the sound. In the source task, a convolutional neural network (CNN) is trained for learning spectral and temporal contexts when the sustain pedal is pressed using a large dataset generated by a physical modelling virtual instrument. The CNN is designed Melspectrogram and experimented through exploiting the knowledge of piano acoustics and physics. This can achieve an accuracy score of MIDI & sensor 0 127 0.98 in the validation results. In the target task, the knowledge learned from the synthesised data can be transferred to detect the Fig. 1.

Received: 11 January 2019; Accepted: 26 February 2019; Published: 4 March 2019 Abstract: A library of piano samples composed of binaural recordings and keyboard vibrations has been built, with the aim of sharing accurate data that in recent years have successfully advanced the knowledge on several aspects about the musical keyboard and its multimodal feedback to the performer. All samples were recorded using calibrated measurement equipment on two Yamaha Disklavier pianos, one grand and one upright model. This paper documents the sample acquisition procedure, with related calibration data. Then, for sound and vibration analysis, it is shown how physical quantities such as sound intensity and vibration acceleration can be inferred from the recorded samples. Finally, the paper describes how the samples can be used to correctly reproduce binaural sound and keyboard vibrations. The library has potential to support experimental research about the psycho-physical, cognitive and experiential effects caused by the keyboard’s multimodal feedback in musicians and other users, or, outside the laboratory, to enable an immersive personal piano performance.
