(19) Temperament Key
Tap
The Temperament Key setting allows the key of the selected temperament to be specified. When using a temperament other than
Equal temperament, use this setting to specify the key signature of the piece.
CHECK
If Equal Temperament is selected, setting the Temperament Key will have no effect.
(20) Key Volume
Tap
The Key Volume setting allows the volume of different regions of the keyboard to be subtly reduced. There are four different damping
presets available.
While the default “Normal” key volume setting should be appropriate for a broad range of musical genres, it may be desirable to
experiment with different damping presets to attenuate or amplify the areas of the keyboard.
Type
Description
Normal
An evenly balanced volume throughout the keyboard.
High Damping
Gradually reduces the volume of the keyboard towards the treble region.
Low Damping
Gradually reduces the volume of the keyboard towards the bass region.
High & Low Damping
Gradually reduces the volume of the keyboard in both the treble and bass regions.
Center Damping
Gradually reduces the volume of the keyboard in the central region.
(21) Half-Pedal Adjust
Drag
The Half-Pedal Adjust setting allows the point at which the damper pedal becomes effective (i.e. when the dampers of the piano begin
to lift from the strings) to be adjusted. This setting may be useful for pianists that habitually rest their right foot on the damper/sustain
pedal, but do not necessarily wish to sustain the sound.
Value
Description
1
This setting allows the half-pedal to start at the earliest point.
7
This setting allows the half-pedal to start at the latest point.
8
This setting is intended for using the pedal as a MIDI controller.
The maximum value can be reached easily, without pressing the damper pedal fully.
10
This setting is intended for using the pedal as a MIDI controller.
The maximum value will be reached when the damper pedal is pressed fully.
The Key Volume setting allows the volume of different regions of the keyboard to be subtly reduced. There are four different damping
presets available, with an additional “User” setting allowing players to perform subtle volume adjustments on each individual key.
While the default “Normal” key volume setting should be appropriate for a broad range of musical genres, it may be desirable to
experiment with different damping presets, or the User setting to attenuate or amplify the volume of individual keys.
User
A custom keyboard volume, allowing the volume of each key to be individually adjusted.
