Here’s how to specify how the velocity transmitted when you play the pad controllers
[A1]–[A9] and [B1]–[B9] will respond to your playing strength.

1

Press the [EDIT] button so it’s lit.
The display will indicate “EDIT.”

2

Use the VALUE knob to select “SYS,” and press the [ENTER] button.

3

Use the VALUE knob to select “SY06,” and press the [ENTER] button.

4

Use the VALUE knob or controllers [A1]–[A4] to specify the desired Pad Velocity
Curve.
The display will indicate the curve you specify.

5

Press the [ENTER] button to return to Play mode.

Here’s how to specify the aftertouch response of the pads.

1

Press the [EDIT] button so it’s lit.
The display will indicate “EDIT.”

2

Use the VALUE knob to select “SYS,” and press the [ENTER] button.

3

Use the VALUE knob to select “SY07,” and press the [ENTER] button.

4

Use the VALUE knob or controllers [A1]–[A4] to specify the desired Pad
Aftertouch Curve.
The display will show the setting you specified.

5

Press the [ENTER] button to return to Play mode.

[A1 (0)]

1

This is the most typical set-
ting. It will produce the most
natural correspondence be-
tween the force of your pad
strike and the change in vol-
ume.

[A2 (1)]

2

Compared to curve 1, this al-
lows more volume change to
be produced in the softer
range of pad strikes.

[A3 (2)]

3

This curve produces less vol-
ume change in response to
your pad strikes, making it
easier to maintain a consis-
tent volume.

[A4 (3)]

4

Compared to curve 1, this
produces more volume
change in the stronger range
of pad strikes.

[A1 (0)]

1

This is the most typical set-
ting. It will produce the most
natural correspondence be-
tween the pressure you apply
to the pad and the aftertouch
data that is produced.

[A2 (1)]

2

Compared to curve 1, this al-
lows aftertouch to be pro-
duced even with light
pressure on the pad.

[A3 (2)]

3

This curve produces less af-
tertouch change in response
to pressure on the pad, mak-
ing it easier to perform con-
sistently.

[A4 (3)]

4

Compared to curve 1, this
will produce aftertouch in re-
sponse to strong pressure on
the pad.
