For selecting curves that determine how the actual

(page 38).

NOTE
Conventionally, organs do not respond to playing strength (key
velocity). Because of this, the Organ Section only produces a
fixed-velocity sound, regardless of playing strength, and the
settings of the [TOUCH] button do not affect the Organ Section.

Characteristics
This curve produces velocities in direct
proportion to the strength of your keyboard
playing. This is the most common type of curve.
This curve makes it easier to produce high
velocities across the entire keyboard.
This curve makes it more difficult to produce
high velocities across the entire keyboard.
This curve accentuates your playing strength by
producing lower velocities in response to softer
playing and louder velocities in response to
harder playing. You can use this setting to
expand the dynamic range of your performances.
This curve produces the same amount of sound
change, regardless of how hard or soft you play
the keyboard. The fixed velocity can be set from
the [MENU] button  "General"  "Keyboard/
Pedal"  "Fixed Velocity."
