Footswitch Function

74 E-MU Systems
The keyboard generates channel aftertouch messages. Aftertouch is
generated when you continue to press the keys after the note has been
played. Aftertouch can be a very useful controller for adding a bit of vibrato
or creating a volume swell. Aftertouch is routed to the Pressure source in
the PatchCord screen. This control allows you to turn aftertouch on or off
without having to modify each preset.
