Indicate Description
OFF
(Fixed)
The sound plays at one set volume, regardless of the force
used to play the keys.
-L-
(Light)
A light keyboard touch is selected. You can achieve fortis-
simo (ff) play with a less forceful touch than usual, so the
keyboard feels lighter. This setting makes it easy to play,
even for children.
-N-(Normal)
This sets the standard keyboard touch. You can play with
the most natural touch. This is the closest to the touch of
an acoustic piano.
-H-
(Heavy)
Here, a heavy keyboard touch is selected. You have to fin-
ger the keyboard more forcefully than usual in order to
play fortissimo (ff), so the keyboard touch feels heavier.
Dynamic fingering adds even more feeling to what you
play.

NOTE
With certain sounds, the
touch may not change.
You can set the velocity the
sound will have when the
keyboard touch is set to
“Fixed” (p. 45).
