(1) Touch Curve
Tap
As with an acoustic piano, the hybrid piano produces a louder sound when the keys are struck with force, and a softer sound when the
keys are played gently. The volume and tonal character change in relation to the strength and velocity of playing – on a hybrid piano
this system is referred to as “touch sensitivity”.
The Touch Curve setting allows the touch sensitivity of the keyboard to be conveniently adjusted. There are ten different preset touch
curve settings available.
The default “Normal” setting is designed to accurately recreate the touch of a Kawai concert grand piano. However, if the keyboard
feels too light, or fortissimo playing is achieved too easily, it may be desirable to select a heavier touch curve. Alternatively, if the
keyboard feels too heavy, or fortissimo playing is too difficult to achieve, it may be desirable to select a lighter touch curve.
Type
Description
Light (4/3/2/1)
Light touch curves require less striking force to achieve a forte note, and are therefore recommended for
players with a delicate touch. The key touch will become progressively lighter as the number increases.
Normal
Reproduces the standard touch sensitivity of an acoustic piano.
Heavy (1/2/3/4)
Heavy touch curves require more striking force in order to achieve a forte, and are therefore
recommended for players with stronger fingers. The key touch will become progressively heavier as the
number increases.
Off (constant)
A constant volume is produced regardless of how hard the keys are struck.
This touch curve intended for playing sounds of instruments that have a fixed dynamic range (e.g. organ and
harpsichord).
