Touch lets you select a different touch sensitivity for the keyboard from
the standard touch of an acoustic piano. You can change the sensitivity
to one of five different settings: LIGHT 1, LIGHT 2, HEAVY 1, HEAVY 2,
OFF or User.
Light 1 For those still developing finger strength. A louder volume is
produced even when playing with a soft touch.
Light 2 For players with a delicate touch. Requires less striking force
to achieve a forte note.
Heavy 1 Perfect for those with strong fingers. Requires a heavier touch
to produce a loud volume.
Heavy 2 Reqires more striking force to achieve a loud volume.
Off A constant volume is produced regardless of how hard the
keys are struck. This setting is suitable for sounds that have a
fixed dynamic range such as Organ and Harpsichord.
User You can create your own custom touch curve to fit your playing
style.
To change from the standard touch, press the TOUCH button. The LED
indicator above the TOUCH button will be turned on to indicate that the
piano is now using a different touch setting.
Use the VALUE buttons to change the type of touch while the
TOUCH button is held down.
Press the TOUCH button again to get back to the standard touch
setting.
Touch selection is global for all the preset tones. You cannot have an
individual setting for each tone.
Once the power is turned off, the setting will be reset to the standard
setting.
◆ NOTE LIGHT and HEAVY do not represent the physical weight of the keys. These
are settings that affect the sensitivity of the keys, which determines the
volume level in response to the key movement.
