ES110 Feature Highlights
Responsive Hammer Compact (RHC) weighted-key keyboard action
The new Responsive Hammer Compact (RHC) action has been developed to reproduce the distinctive touch of an acoustic
grand piano. The weight of the keyboard is appropriately graded to mirror the heavier bass and lighter treble hammers
of acoustic pianos, with a smooth matte texture applied to each black and white key for enhanced playability. As with
all Kawai digital piano keyboard actions, Responsive Hammer Compact utilises hammer velocity sensors, and features a
springless mechanism that delivers a smooth and natural piano playing experience.
Despite its lightweight, compact design, the RHC action allows experienced pianists to perform with condence, playing
fortissimo with power and certainty, while delicately controlling the softest, most gentle pianissimo passages.
Harmonic Imaging™ (HI) sound technology, 88-key piano sampling
The ES110 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, aording pianists an extraordinary level of expressiveness ranging from the softest pianissimo to the strongest,
boldest fortissimo.
Additional reverberation eects that simulate the acoustic environment of a recital room, small room, or concert hall are
also applied, resulting in a rich, vibrant piano tone that delivers breathtaking realism and authenticity.
Internal Song recorder, Built-in Lesson Function
The ES110 digital piano features a three song recorder, allowing performances to be recorded to internal memory and
played back at the touch of a button. In addition, the convenient lesson feature allows aspiring pianists to learn the piano
using a built-in collection of etudes from Burgmüller and songs from the popular Alfred course books. The left and right
hand parts for each piece can be practiced separately, while adjusting the tempo allows more dicult passages to be
perfected.
Integrated Bluetooth® MIDI connectivity
In addition to standard MIDI jacks for connecting to other instruments, the ES110 digital piano also boasts integrated
Bluetooth MIDI technology that allows the instrument to communicate with supported smart devices wirelessly. Once
connected to a phone, tablet, or laptop, ES110 digital piano owners can enjoy a wide variety of exciting music-related
apps that enhance their learning and playing experience without additional cables.

Damper Resonance
Depressing the sustain pedal of an acoustic piano raises all dampers, allowing the strings to vibrate freely.
When a note or chord is played on the piano with the sustain pedal depressed, not only will the strings of the
notes played vibrate, but also the strings of other notes, vibrating in sympathetic resonance.
The ES110 digital piano recreates this phenomenon, with the Damper Resonance setting allowing the volume
of this resonance to be changed.

Voicing
On an acoustic piano, the shape, density, and texture of the hammers all inuence the tonal character of the
instrument’s sound. Technicians utilise a variety of tools such as needles, les, and brushes to manipulate
these hammer felts, with the ultimate goal of achieving a balanced tonal character across the keyboard.
The Voicing setting recreates various hammer properties, allowing the overall tonal character of the ES110
digital piano to be set to one of four dierent types.
While the default ‘Normal’ voicing setting should be appropriate for a broad range of musical genres, it may
be desirable to select a softer, more mellow tonal character for romantic pieces, or a brighter, more aggressive
tone for modern styles.

Fall-back Noise
When playing an acoustic piano, it is often possible to hear the faint sound of the keyboard action returning
(i.e. ‘falling back’) to the neutral position after a key is released.
The ES110 digital piano reproduces this sound, with the Fall-back Noise setting allowing the volume of this
sound to be changed.
While the default value is intended to simulate the natural volume level of the keys as they return to their
neutral position, it may occasionally be desirable to adjust the volume of this sound. For example, reducing
the volume when playing very soft pieces, where the fall-back noise may become too prominent.

The Temperament setting allows the tuning system used by the ES110 digital piano to be changed from
the modern ‘Equal Temperament’ standard to one of the various temperaments popularised during the
Renaissance and Baroque periods.
* This setting will aect all sounds.
Temperament types
Temperament type Description
Equal Temperament (piano)
This is the default temperament. When a piano sound is selected, the tuning will be
stretched like an acoustic piano (equal temperament).
* If any other type of sound is selected, the tuning will be set to equal temperament (at).
Pure Temperament
(Pure Major/Pure Minor)
This temperament, which eliminates dissonances for thirds and fths, is still popular
in choral music because of its perfect harmony. Any key modulation will result in
dissonances.
* The key of the temperament, and major/minor setting must be correctly matched.
Pythagorean Temperament
This temperament, which uses mathematical ratios to eliminate dissonance for fths, is
very limited for use with chords, but produces very characteristic melodic lines.
Meantone Temperament
This temperament, which uses a mean between a major and minor whole tone to
eliminate dissonance for thirds, was devised to eliminate the lack of consonances
experienced with certain fths for the Mersenne pure temperament. It produces chords
that are more beautiful than those played with equal temperament.
Werckmeister III Temperament
Kirnberger III Temperament
These two temperaments are placed in between Meantone and Pythagorean. For music
with few accidentals, this temperament produces the beautiful chords of the mean tone,
but as accidentals increase, the temperament produces the characteristic melodies of the
Pythagorean temperament. It is used primarily for classical music written in the Baroque
era to revive the original characteristics.

MIDI IN Receiving note, program change, and other data.
MIDI OUT Sending note, program change, and other data.
MIDI channels
MIDI uses channels to exchange data back and forth between MIDI devices. There are receive (MIDI IN) and transmit (MIDI OUT)
channels. Most musical instruments or devices with MIDI functions are equipped with both MIDI IN and OUT jacks and are capable
of transmitting and receiving data via MIDI. The receive channels are used to receive data from another MIDI device and the
transmit channels are used to transmit data to another MIDI device.
The illustration below shows three musical instruments, connected together using MIDI.
Transmitting instrument a Receiving instrument b Receiving instrument c
Transmitting instrument a sends transmit channel and keyboard information to receiving instruments b/c.
The information arrives at the receiving instruments b/c.
Receiving instruments b/c will respond to MIDI data that is sent if their receive channel is the same as the transmit channel of
the transmitting instrument a.
If the channels do not match, then the receiving instruments b/c will not respond to any data that is sent.
For both receiving and transmitting, channels 1~16 can be used.
Recording/playing with a sequencer
When connected to a sequencer, the ES110 digital piano can be
used to record and playback multi-track songs, with separate
sounds playing simultaneously on each channel.

Connecting to Other Devices
Appendix
Before connecting the ES110 digital piano to other devices, ensure that the power to both the instrument
and the other device is turned off. If connections are established while the power is turned on, extraneous
noise that can damage the ES110 digital piano may activate the instrument’s amplifier protection circuit,
preventing any sound from being produced. If this occurs, turn the power off and then on again to reset the
amplifier protection circuit.
The rear side of the ES110 digital piano features a variety of jacks that allow the instrument be connected
to MIDI devices, computers, speakers, and mixers. The illustration below provides a visual overview of the
instrument’s connectors and typical applications.
Connect the instrument to other MIDI
instruments, modules, devices, etc.
Connect the F-10H foot
pedal to the instrument.
Connect the instrument to external
speakers, ampliers, mixers, etc.

DAMPER jack
This jack is used to connect the included F-10H foot pedal to the instrument.
* Please refer to page 11 for more information about pedal functions.
MIDI IN/OUT jacks
These jacks are used to connect the ES110 digital piano to external MIDI devices, and also to a computer with a MIDI interface.
* When the ES110 digital piano is connected to a smart device via Bluetooth MIDI, the MIDI IN/OUT connectors will be disabled.
* Please refer to page 39 for more information about MIDI.
LINE OUT jacks (1/4” phone jacks)
These jacks are used to connect the stereo output of the instrument’s sound to external speakers, ampliers, mixers, recording
devices, and similar equipment. Mono signals will be output only if a cable is connected to the L/MONO jack. The MASTER VOLUME
slider will aect the output level of the LINE OUT jacks.
* When using the LINE OUT jacks, it may also be desirable to disable both the instrument’s built-in speakers and speaker EQ to ensure optimum
sound quality.

Trou bleshooting
The table below summarises issues that may be experienced with the ES110 digital piano, explaining the
typical cause(s), and recommended solution(s).
Issue Possible Cause and Solution Page no.
Power
The instrument does not turn on. Check that the AC power adaptor is rmly attached to the
instrument, and connected to an AC outlet.
p. 12
The instrument turns itself o after a
period of inactivity.
Check that the ‘Auto Power O’ setting is not enabled. p. 47
Sound
The instrument is turned on, however
no sound is produced when the keys
are pressed.
Check that the MASTER VOLUME slider is not set to the lowest
position.
Check that a pair of headphones (or headphone adaptor
plug) are not connected to the PHONES jacks.
Check that the Local Control setting in the MIDI Settings
menu is set to On.
Check that the built-in speakers have not been disabled using
the Speakers On/O setting.
p. 12
p. 11
p. 43
p. 46
The sound distorts when playing at
very loud volume levels.
Check that the MASTER VOLUME slider is set to an appropriate
level, reducing the volume if excessive distortion is heard.
p. 12
Strange sounds or noises are heard
when playing with piano sounds.
The ES110 digital piano attempts to reproduce the rich variety
of tones created by an acoustic grand piano as accurately as
possible. This includes damper resonances, damper noises,
and other subtle characteristics that contribute to the overall
piano playing experience.
While these additional tones are intended to enhance the
realism of the instrument, it is possible to reduce their
prominence.
p. 26
The top 18 notes of the keyboard
sustain far longer than neighbouring
notes, even when the damper pedal
is not pressed.
This is the correct behaviour, and intended to reproduce
the undamped notes (typically the top two octaves) of an
acoustic grand piano.
