■ 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.
