depending on where you hit the instrument. For 
example, when playing a cymbal, the tone around 
the center differs from the tone at the edge.
With the instruments in the “Instrument/Bass

name, you can change the Nuance settings, 
which allow you to obtain tonal changes relative 
to the position the instrument is struck.
