Strings Resonance

Strings Res setting

The String Resonance Modelling includes 3 natural effects:

Strings Resonance: this effect has been analyzed and repro-

duced by the Studiologic Lab‘s team and implemented with 

many improvements, that allow to have a very warm and na-

tural effect (as compared to many other instruments) with a 

wider frequency response and a very realistic sound. The ef-

fect reproduces the resonance of all strings, when the Dam-

per pedal is pressed, creating a kind of very typical acoustic 

reverberation of all strings and their harmonics.

Sympathetic Resonance: playing a key on an acoustic piano 

allows the damper of that particular note to be released, and 

it also lets the string/s of that key play and resonate.  As a 

consequence, even when only one key is kept pressed, any 

other key played on the keyboard can resonate, if there are 

harmonics positioned in the same frequency range. In other 

words, a very subtle but evident partial string resonance can 

be heard also when the Damper pedal is not pressed and few 

keys are played. Numa Concert also reproduces this natural 

acoustic effect.

Soundboard resonance: acoustic pianos (and in particular 

the grand pianos) are very reactive structures, that resonate 

with the played notes (as well as with external sound sour-

ces) even without activating the damper pedal (also due to 

the top octvave strings, normally without any damper). This 

“soundboard resonance” is so evident that a piano tuner 

needs to artificially stop all other strings (with felt of clothes) 

when tuning the instrument. The Numa Concert also repro-

duces this natural effect, that completes the Strings Reso-

nance Modelling. 

To access the settings press Function & 

Strings Res

. the dis-

play shows the current level, from Off to 10, and the amount 

of all 3 above described Strings Resonance effects can be 

controlled according to your taste (suggested levels: 3-4)

Note: when a Modulation Effect is selected (e.g. Chorus etc) 

the Strings Resonance is automatically set to Off, in order to 

avoid any over post-processing of the selected sound.
