Other Performance Features
Other performance functions include the following. Select various patches, and try
out these functions.
Velocity/Aftertouch
The force with which you play the keyboard, or the “velocity” with which you play,
can affect the volume or timbre of a sound. Aftertouch—downward pressure you
apply to a key after playing a note—can also affect the sound.

Pitch Bend/Modulation Lever
While playing the keyboard, move the lever to the left to lower the pitch of the
currently selected patch, or to the right to raise its pitch. This is known as
pitch bend
.
You can also apply vibrato and so on by gently pushing the lever away from you.
This is known as
modulation
.
If you push the lever away from you and at the same time move it to the right or left,
you can apply both effects at once.
