Parameter Explanation
Adjusting how the sound will respond to strike position
Position Area
Adjusts how the tonal character (p. 14) will be affected by the position at which you
strike the M1 or M2 pads.
As you increase this value, it will become easier to produce tonal change by striking
the edge.
If this is “OFF,” striking the edge will not produce tonal change.
The default value is “2.”
