YDP-101
Touch Sensitivity
Four different types of keyboard touch sensitivity — HARD, MEDIUM, SOFT
or FIXED — can be selected to match different playing styles and preferences.
To select a touch sensitivity type press the [TOUCH] button a few
times until the indicator corresponding to the desired type lights (the
indicators light in sequence each time the [TOUCH] button is pressed).
HARD
The HARD setting requires the keys to be played quite hard to
produce maximum loudness.
MEDIUM
The MEDIUM setting produces a fairly “standard” keyboard response.
This is the initial factory default setting.
SOFT
The SOFT setting allows maximum loudness to be produced with
relatively light key pressure.
FIXED (no indicator lit)
All notes are produced at the same volume no matter how hard the
keyboard is played.
When the FIXED type is selected, the volume of notes played in the
FIXED mode can be set by using the [–/NO] and [+/YES] buttons while
the [TOUCH] button is held (the current volume level appears on the
display). The volume range is from 1 through 127. The default setting
is 64.
NOTE
• This setting does not change the weight of the keyboard.
• The touch sensitivity type and volume set in the FIXED mode will become
the common setting for all voices.
Transposition
Use the [–/NO] or [+/YES] button while holding the [TRANS-
POSE] button to transpose down or up as required. The transposition
range is from “–12” (down one octave) through “0” (normal pitch) to
“12” (up one octave). The amount of transposition appears on the LED
display while the [TRANSPOSE] button is held. The default transpose
setting is “0”.
NOTE
• The [TRANSPOSE] button indicator remains lit when a transpose setting
other than “0” is selected.
• Notes below and above the A-1 … C7 range of the YDP-101 sound one
octave higher and lower, respectively.
The YDP-101’s TRANSPOSE function makes it possible to shift the pitch of
the entire keyboard up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of 12
semitones (i.e. a maximum of one octave up or down). “Transposing” the pitch of
the YDP-101 keyboard facilitates playing in difficult key signatures, and you can
easily match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instru-
mentalist.
