Touch and Touch Sensitivity
The Touch function gives you dynamic, expressive control over the v oices, letting
you determine how loud or soft the sound is by your playing strength.
Turn the Touch function on or off as desired by pressing the [TOUCH] but-
ton.
Touch Sensitivity lets you set how the PSR-282 responds to your playing strength,
allowing you to customize this expressive function to suit your own playing style.

● Settings:
When Touch is turned off, a constant volume (corresponding to a velocity
value of 80) is produced.
1 (Soft) This results in limited touch response, and produces a relatively narrow
dynamic range, no matter how lightly or strongly you play the keys.
2 (Medium) This lets you play over a normal dynamic range (soft to loud).
3 (Hard) This is designed for playing very soft passages, giving you slightly more
detailed control in the soft volume range.
