VSw (Velocity Switch)
Timbres can be set to respond to a specific key velocity (how firmly you strike the keys).
For example, you can set Timbres in such a way that a strings sound is produced when you
play the keyboard softly, and a brass sound is produced when you play the keyboard hard.
The examples here are all based on the use of two Programs. Since the X5DR allows you to use
up to eight Timbres, you can combine these types to create more sophisticated settings.
Combination Edit mode
Combination Edit mode allows you to modify the sound of Combinations. You can change the
Programs assigned to the Timbres and edit the voicing range of each Timbre.
