function.
Step 2
Use the VALUE buttons to select a touch curve from Heavy+, Heavy, Normal, Light, Light+, Off, User 1,

The selected touch curve is shown on the second line on the display.
See the next page for information on creating a user touch curve.
Step 3
After selecting the desired touch curve, you can exit the virtual technician function by pressing the

turned off.
5) Touch Curve
The CA piano responds just like a real acoustic piano when you play it. It produces a louder sound when you
play hard and a softer sound when you play soft. The volume level and sound character changes in relation to
how strongly and
q
uickly the keys are pressed. This system is called “touch sensitivity” on a digital piano. The
CA piano’s Touch Curve function lets you select a different touch sensitivity for the keyboard from the standard
touch of an acoustic piano. You can change the touch sensitivity to one of six different preset touch curves and
two user touch curves.

Light +
: For players with a delicate touch. Re

uires less striking force to achieve a forte note.
d

: For those still developing fi nger strength. A louder volume is produced even when playing
with a soft touch. This curve is recommended for children
and organ players.

piano.
