Shift functions
15
127
All notes will sound at maximum velocity
(127). This setting mimics the behavior of early
analog synths.
Cu.7 and 8 produce little change for medium-strength
playing. However, these curves will produce a great
deal of change with softly played notes, so they may be
more difficult to control. Choose the curve that is most
appropriate for your playing dynamics or for the effect
you want to obtain.

This allows you to specify the MIDI channel when using
the long ribbon controller to play.
Specify a setting when using a program with sound
generation set to Multi (Voice mode: Multi) or when the
external MIDI device that’s connected to the MIDI OUT jack
