Velocity Response Curves
Many programs in the MicroPiano are designed
for a full range of velocity sensitivity. The touch
response and MIDI velocity transmission vary
with each controller keyboard. With this feature,
you can adjust how the
MicroPiano responds to
different velocity curves sent from particular
controllers.
To select a curve in CONFIGURATION mode,
press the Effects button, then turn the Data knob
to choose a curve. You will notice the Effects LED
blinking. Several curves are offered for the
MicroPiano. Curve 1 is the default setting. The
best way to choose the right curve for your con-
troller is to play repeated notes from soft to loud,
and listen to the timbre and volume differences as
you select different curves.
The MicroPiano lets you choose from the fol-
lowing velocity response curves:
MIDI
The MicroPiano uses MIDI (Musical Instrument
Digital Interface) to receive input from a key-
board controller and to send messages to other
musical instruments. Standard MIDI cables pro-
vide the connection between the MIDI ports of
one piece of equipment and those of another. To
keep things simple, there are only two valid MIDI
connections: OUT to IN and THRU to IN. (See the
illustration on the next page.)
