Advanced Use
❍ ORCHESTRAL TONES VELOCITY SENSE
OFFSET (0–127)
This sets the relationship between the force with which
the keys are pressed (velocity) and the Orchestral Tones
volume.
As the set value is raised, a high volume is produced even
when the keys are pressed weakly. When set to lower
values, the volume level remains low, even when the keys
are pressed with greater force.
NOTE
When this set to certain values, there may be times when
sounds are not played. If this occurs, raise the
ORCHESTRAL TONES VELOCITY SENSE OFFSET
value.
❍ PEDAL ORCHESTRAL TONES VELOCITY MODE
(ORIGINAL/FIXED)
This setting determines whether the velocity used will be
that of the pedalboard connected to the PK IN connector
and MIDI PEDAL IN connector, or will be the velocity
value set for PEDAL ORCHESTRAL TONES VELOCITY.
Turn the [VIBRATO AND CHORUS] knob toward the left
to select ORIGINAL, or toward the right to select FIXED.
