You're welcome! Oh, and for your other questions...

For the following tests, make sure Reverb and any other effects are OFF, to better hear the effects.

Without pedal down, strike and release a middle key, with and without "Long Release" engaged. You should hear the difference, on how long it takes for the sound to completely stop when you release the key. I think Long Release sounds better, more like a real piano. But you can set it however you like.

WITH pedal down, play some notes around the middle of the keyboard, trying this with and without "String Resonance" engaged. You should hear the difference in whether you get a sense that additional sounds are audible in the background, an "aura" of other notes resonating, kind of like a reverb, but a little different. If you like it, leave it engaged, if you don't, turn it off. It is designed, again, to make the sound more similar to a real piano, but in some situations, people can feel it might muddy up the sound a bit and they may want to turn it off.

I always leave both on, personally. But the buttons are there so you can set them however it sounds best to you for the purposes at hand.
