TOUCH MODE
This Keyboard offers four types of keyboard touch sensitivity settings:
Soft, Normal, Hard and Fixed
These are also known as Velocity sensitivity settings and can help you to suit this
keyboard to your playing style.
The Normal setting is selected automatically when the piano is turned on.
Hard is the most sensitive keyboard response which permits maximum
sound levels with a light touch.
Normal is an intermediate response suitable for most styles of music.
Normal is the default setting.
Soft is a less sensitive keyboard response which requires a heavier
touch to obtain maximum sound levels.
Fixed does not offer any touch sensitivity. Each key plays at full
volume no matter how hard the piano key is hit.
It is commonly used on Harpsichord and Organ voices.
