Now Pad 1, Pad 2 and Pad 3 get light up, indicating you can choose your desired
Aftertouch mode out of these three options. The currently selected option lights

Note: Xjam is equipped with 7 kinds of velocity curves, which can meet various
performance requirements. There are 4 user curves and 3 fixed velocity settings
available, which are 127, 100 and 64 respectively.

pad area will become optional. Pad 4 is YELLOW, indicating that Velocity curve 4
is used as a default velocity curve, whilst pads 2 - 7 are illuminated RED and
become optional for selection.
•
The default setting is Curve 4, which is a dynamic curve with a soft logarithmic
start turning into a soft exponential curve at the end.

Press Pad 2 to set a slight exponential velocity sensitivity.
•
Press Pad 3 to set a slight logarithmic velocity sensitivity.
•
Press Pad 4 to set a hard, linear, velocity sensitivity.
