 KEYBOARD is used as a normal electronic piano keyboard 

in  the  performance,  and  it  is  usually  used  to  change  the  MIDI 

settings as controller and create the MIDI song.

The  presence  of  velocity  sensitivity  can  make  your  playing  song 

more inspiring. If you don't have the velocity sensitivity, the keyboard 

will  send  the  same  velocity  value  for  each  note,  which  makes  the 

player  uninspiring.  This  velocity-sensitive  keyboard  allows  you  to 

express  dynamics  accurately,  while  different  note  ranges  is  done
