Keyboard

The virtual keyboard at the bottom of the window shows which notes are being played. The
controls next to it determine its performance.

Pitch

Tune

This slider sets the keyboard's fine tuning (in cents). To set it, you can (A)
click and drag the slider, (B) click on the desired position, or (C) double-click
the value under the slider, type in a value, and press your keyboard's Enter
key.

Transpose

This slider sets the keyboard's transposition (in semitones or half-steps). To
set it, you can (A) click and drag the slider, (B) click on the desired position,
or (C) double-click the value under the slider, type in a value, and press your
keyboard's Enter key.

Velocity

The Velocity setting determines the keyboard's velocity curve—how the
keyboard responds to how hard you play it with varying amounts of force. A
soft curve (Soft, Software, Softest) means that you have to play with a lot of
force to produce a heavier sound. A hard curve (Hard, Harder, Hardest)
means that you can produce a heavier sound more easily, with little force. The Linear setting
has no curve, so the heaviness of the sound you produce will always be proportional to the
force you use.
