Making Detailed Settings for the ONE TOUCH Tones
This adjusts the sound of the hammer striking the string of an
acoustic piano.
Changes the pitch using the “stretch tune” method typically
used on acoustic pianos. This makes high-range sounds
slightly higher in pitch, and low-range sounds slightly lower in
pitch.
This lets you change the way that the sound will respond when
you play the keyboard strongly.
This lets you change the way that the sound will respond when
you play the keyboard softly. For example, this can be
adjusted suitably for solo performance, or to prevent your
sound from being buried in the rest of the band.
The tonal change will still be great even if you
change this value.
You can make advanced settings for the touch used for the keys.
This setting is switched automatically according to
the value of Key Touch Offset, which follows.
Changing this setting also changes the Key Touch
setting in Edit Mode (p. 113).
This setting provides even more precise adjustment of the key
touch than available with the Key Touch setting alone.
This allows you to achieve a more precise setting for the Key
Touch by specifying an intermediate value between Key Touch
settings.
When this settings value continues into the positive
or negative direction, the Key Touch’s five-step
value is switched automatically in accordance with
