6.2.35 Velocity Switch
Velocity switching is an extremely useful and creative tool for customizing a
performance. Using Velocity Switching, it is possible to have either one sound
switch to another sound at a set velocity, or even for a second sound to be added
in once a certain velocity has been reached, or to have a sound drop out above
or below a set velocity level.
This parameter sets the velocity switch type.
Off No effect - the sound plays normally.
Loud The selected sound plays only when the key is struck harder than the Vel
SW Val. (See next parameter)
Soft The selected sound plays only when the key is struck softer than the Vel
SW Val. (See next parameter)

6.2.36 Velocity Switch Value
This parameter determines switching level of the key velocity.
For the Loud Vel SW :determines the lowest key velocity to sound.
For the Soft Vel SW : determines the highest key velocity to sound.
When the Velocity Switch is set to Off, this page won’t be displayed.
Note:
Each zone can have a separate Velocity Switch Value. By setting the Soft Zone
Velocity Switch Value higher than that of the Loud Zone, a dynamic area where
both sounds play can be created. It is also possible to switch Internal Zones with
External Zones for even more possibilities.
Note2:
Velocity Switch = Loud /Velocity Switch Value = 1
In this settings, it is possible to press a key very softly and hear no sound.
This is just the same as an acoustic piano.
