Roland A-PRO Electronic Keyboard User Manual

Performing (Play Mode)
Normally, note messages are transmitted with a velocity value that corresponds to the force with which you play the keyboard.
If desired, the A-PRO can also transmit notes with a fixed velocity value, regardless of your playing dynamics.
This is convenient when you want to record notes into your DAW software at a fixed velocity.
You can also adjust the sensitivity of the keyboard and change the velocity curve
(the way in which velocity responds to your dynamics).
The system “FUNCTION” setting “KEY VELOCITY” lets you specify a fixed velocity.
* You can use the following method, or refer to “[VALUE] knob Settings” (p. 68).
If “KEY VELOCITY” is assigned to the [VALUE] knob, you can also use the following
procedure to specify the velocity.
1 Use the [ ] [ ] buttons to move the cursor to “USER ASSIGN” in
the display.
The display will indicate the velocity value that was transmitted most recently.
2 Use the [VALUE] knob to specify the desired velocity value
(TOUCH, 1–127).

If the display indicates “TOUCH,” the
transmitted velocity value will correspond
to the force with which you play the
keyboard.
Refer to the system setting “KEYBOARD VELOCITY CURVE” (p. 60).
