	Indicator			Settings
	1–100	The keyboard touch gets lighter as the value decreases, with
		the touch becoming heavier as the value is increased.
	Fix	The sound plays at a fixed volume, regardless of how
		forcefully the keys are played.
5. Press the [Function] (Exit) button so the indicator goes out.

Fortissimo (ff) can be played with a lighter touch as the value is decreased, making it feel like the keyboard has a lighter touch. This setting makes it easy to play, even for children.

Increasing the value gives the instrument a heavier key touch. Fortissimo (ff) cannot be produced unless you play more strongly than usual, making the keyboard feel heavier. Dynamic fingering adds even more feeling to what you play.

A value of around 65 provides a standard setting, producing the most natural touch. This is the closest to the touch of an acoustic piano.

You can save this setting in the

RG-7’s memory using the

Memory Backup function (p.

72).
