Piano sounds on Electro 6 D

[Staffan C-B]

Hi
Anyone noticed that in the higher end of the Electro 6 most piano sound suddenly have a reverb that is not present at the lower end? It´s very distinct from one key to another, for example from a high C to next tone D it is a remarkable sound change. What is this? Should it be like that?
Thanks for guidance, I´m new to the Electro.

I think what you're talking about is a characteristic of acoustic pianos that many keyboard manufacturers try to retain to maintain authenticity. If the sound is more of an undamped sustain on the higher keys (I can see how that might sound a bit like reverb) than it's replicating the fact that acoustic pianos, by design, don't incorporate the sustain damping mechanism in the highest keys.

Ok, that's interesting and probably You are right. I could not imagine that Nord had missed such thing but I wanted to know why. Thanks!

BLV - Yes, I think you are exactly correct here mate! Although personally, I don't actually like it! Cheers.
