5.1SELECTING THE TOUCH SENSITIVITY (TOUCH BUTTON)

Touch lets you select a different touch sensitivity for the keyboard from the standard touch of an acoustic piano. You can change the sensitivity to one of five different settings: LIGHT 1, LIGHT 2, HEAVY 1, HEAVY 2, OFF or User.

		Light 1	For those still developing finger strength. A louder volume is
			produced even when playing with a soft touch.
		Light 2	For players with a delicate touch. Requires less striking force


			to achieve a forte note.
		Heavy 1	Perfect for those with strong fingers. Requires a heavier touch
		Heavy 1
			to produce a loud volume.
		Heavy 2	Reqires more striking force to achieve a loud volume.


		Off	A constant volume is produced regardless of how hard the


			keys are struck. This setting is suitable for sounds that have a
		User	fixed dynamic range such as Organ and Harpsichord.
			fixed dynamic range such as Organ and Harpsichord.
			You can create your own custom touch curve to fit your playing

			style.
		To change from the standard touch, press the TOUCH button. The LED

		indicator above the TOUCH button will be turned on to indicate that the
		piano is now using a different touch setting.
		Use the VALUE buttons to change the type of touch while the
		TOUCH button is held down.
		Press the TOUCH button again to get back to the standard touch
		setting.
		Touch selection is global for all the preset tones. You cannot have an
		individual setting for each tone.
		Once the power is turned off, the setting will be reset to the standard
		setting.
◆ NOTE		LIGHT and HEAVY do not represent the physical weight of the keys. These
		are settings that affect the sensitivity of the keys, which determines the
		volume level in response to the key movement.
