6) TOUCH CURVE
The TOUCH function allows different touch sensitivities for the keyboard to be selected, other than the standard
touch of an acoustic piano. The sensitivity can be changed to one of five different types: Light 2, Light 1, Heavy
1, Heavy 2 or Off.
Step 1
Press and hold the TRANSPOSE and USB buttons, then press the DRAWBAR button.
Step 2
Press the S or T VALUE buttons to select the desired TOUCH type.
The currently selected touch type will be shown in the LED display.
„ The touch setting is global for all of the internal sounds. It is not possible to have individual touch settings for each
internal sound.
„ When the power is turned off, the touch settings will return to the default setting of ‘Normal’.
„ Note: LIGHT and HEAVY do not represent the physical weight of the keys. The touch type affects the sensitivity of the
keys, determining the volume level in response to the key movement.
cLight 2 : For players with a delicate touch. Requires less striking
force to achieve a forte note.
dLight 1 : For those still developing finger strength. A louder
volume is produced even when playing with a soft touch.
eNormal : Reproduces the standard touch sensitivity of an acoustic
piano.
fHeavy 1 : Perfect for those with strong fingers. Requires a heavier
touch to produce a loud volume.
gHeavy 2 : Requires more striking force to achieve a loud volume.
hOff : 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.
