● MODULATION WHEEL

Determines to which of the PSR-8000 voices the MODU-
LATION wheel will apply.
Use the LEFT, R1, R2, and LEAD LCD dials to turn
MODULATION wheel control for the corresponding parts ON
or OFF as required.

● INITIAL TOUCH

Sets the touch response off-level and sensitivity curve of the
keyboard initial touch response, and determines to which of the
PSR-8000 voices touch response will apply.
Use the OFF LEVEL LCD dial to set the level at which touch
response is turned off.
Use the SENSITIVITY LCD dials to select the desired
sensitivity curve.
Use the LEFT, R1, R2, and LEAD LCD dials to turn initial
touch response control for the corresponding parts ON or OFF
as required.

● AFTER TOUCH

Aftertouch effects are preset for many of the PSR-8000’s
voices (some voices have no aftertouch). This parameter sets
the keyboard aftertouch sensitivity. Use the SENSITIVITY
LCD dials to select the desired sensitivity. When the SOFT type
is selected maximum variation can be produced with minimum
aftertouch pressure.
Use the LEFT, R1, R2, and LEAD LCD dials to turn
aftertouch for the corresponding parts ON or OFF as required.
The PSR-8000 “Functions”
HARD 2 Requires the keys to be played very hard to
produce maximum loudness.
HARD 1 Requires the keys to be played quite hard to
produce maximum loudness.
NORMAL Produces a fairly “standard” keyboard response.
SOFT 1 Not a sensitivity as the “SOFT 2” setting, but
maximum loudness can still be easily produced
with relatively light key pressure.
SOFT 2 Allows maximum loudness to be produced with
very light key pressure.
