Roland SPD-20 MIDI Velocity Curve (CURVE), Velocity Sensitivity (SENS)

MIDI Velocity Curve (CURVE)
When changing the strength with which you strike the pad, select from the following 16 types of veloci-
ty curves for transmitting Velocity values (volume changes) from MIDI OUT.
fig.73
If this parameter is set to “CSt” (constant), the volume will be the same for each note—regardless of
how strongly or softly you strike the pad. In this case, you will adjust the velocity Sensitivity parameter
to set the volume.
Velocity Sensitivity (SENS)
When striking the pad, you can adjust the Velocity Sensitivity (1–15) transmitted to a MIDI device.
Sensitivity increases as the value is raised, allowing you to transmit high Velocity levels even when
striking the pad softly.
If the Velocity Curve parameter has been set to “CSt,” velocity will be transmitted with the following
value.
