Questions and Answers

  • B
    Bonnie OrtizSep 12, 2025
    Why does the sound sustain after releasing and re-pressing the damper pedal on my Kawai MP7SE?
    • S
      Stephen WellsSep 12, 2025
      This is the correct behaviour, and reproduces the ability to sustain notes when quickly re-pressing the damper pedal of an acoustic grand piano.

    Why does the sound cut out when selecting a Tonewheel organ sound on my Kawai MP7SE?
    • C
      Cynthia WhitakerSep 13, 2025
      When entering/exiting Tonewheel organ mode (asigned to DRAWBAR sub- categories 1~3), there may be a brief loss of sound as the tonewheel simulator is activated/deactivated. This is normal behaviour.

    Why does an SMF file sound strange on my Kawai Musical Instrument?
    • V
      Veronica BrewerSep 15, 2025
      The MP7SE loads SMF files into the instrument’s Song Recorder (internal memory), which only supports one track + drum track. MIDI data that requires miltiple tracks may therefore not playback correctly.
