English translation:(sth. like) texture
Explanation:
This article:

http://ethesis.siba.fi/ethesis/files/nbnfife20061430.pdf

suggests that the term is at least near the concept "texture"

Notably, there seems not to be any Finnish article corresponding to Eng article Texture.

Apparently, though, Eng "texture" and Fin "sointipinta" aren't synonymous.

(N. B. I am as far as possible from a music specialist)
