Changing the Key Touch (KEY TOUCH)
Sets the keyboard’s touch.
1.
Press the [KEY TOUCH] button.
The KEY TOUCH screen appears.
2.
Move the cursor to “Velo Curve,” and use the value dial to change the
setting.
Value Explanation
LIGHT
This sets the keyboard to a light touch. You can achieve fortissimo (ff) play with
a less forceful touch than MEDIUM setting, so the keyboard feels lighter. This
setting makes it easier for children, whose hands have less strength.
MEDIUM This sets the keyboard to the standard touch.
HEAVY
This sets the keyboard to a heavy touch. You have to play the keyboard more
forcefully than MEDIUM setting in order to play fortissimo (ff), so the keyboard
touch feels heavier. This setting allows you to add more expression when
playing dynamically.
MEMO
You can also make more detailed adjustments to the keyboard touch, or specify
that all notes sound at a fixed volume regardless of your keyboard playing
dynamics. For details, refer to system settings “KEY TOUCH” (p. 16).
