3.TOUCH

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, LIGHT+, HEAVY, HEAVY+, OFF and User 1/2.

Light For those still developing finger strength. A louder volume is produced even when playing with a soft touch.

Light+ For players with a delicate touch. Requires less striking force to achieve a forte note.

Heavy Perfect for those with strong fingers. Requires a heavier touch to produce a loud volume.

Heavy+ 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 fixed dynamic range such as Organ and Harpsichord.

User 1/2 You can create your own custom touch curve to fit your playing style. Two user touch curves can be saved.

After selecting the “Touch” function by pressing the MENU buttons, use the VALUE buttons to select your desired touch type.
