Keyboard/Joystick-related Settings

Setting the Touch Response of the Keyboard

Touch Response determines how the sound responds to your playing strength. The selected Touch Response type
becomes the common setting for all Voices.
You can make the settings on the display called up via [MENU]  [Keyboard/Joystick]  [Keyboard].
NOTE
Some Voices are purposely designed without Touch Response, in order to emulate the true characteristics of the actual instrument (for example, conventional organs, which
have no Touch Response).
