■ Changing the Timing of Sounds According to the
Force Used to Press the Keys (Hammer Response)
This adjusts how your playing strength will affect the timing at which the
note sounds. This is called the “Hammer Response” function.
On an acoustic piano, pressing a key moves a hammer, which strikes a string
to produce sound. If you press the key softly, the hammer will move slowly,
meaning that it will take slightly longer (in comparison to a strongly-played
note) from the moment you press the key until the sound is produced.
If the Hammer Response function is turned on, the time between the
moment you press a key until the sound is heard will change depending on
the strength with which you play. As you play more softly, this time will
become longer.
