Changing Keyboard Touch Sensitivity

You can select from three touch sensitivity levels: Light, Medium, and Heavy.
When the Keyboard is turned on, the response is set to “Medium.”

While holding down the [Key Touch/Demo Song] button, press the
key indicating the preferred touch sensitivity.

Types

Meaning

Medium

Normal setting, providing the most natural touch, closest to that of an
acoustic piano.

Heavy

With this setting, to play fortissimo the keys must be played much
more strongly than normally, as if the keys had become heavier. Adds
even more emotion when you play with lots of dynamics. This is
useful for players who use a strong touch and for drill work.

Light

With this setting, fortissimo can be produced using much less force
than normal, thus making the keys seem lighter. This setting makes it
easy to play, even for children.
