Light 1 : For those still developing fi nger strength. A louder vol-
ume is produced even when playing with a soft touch.
Light 2 : For players with a delicate touch. Requires less striking
force to achieve a forte note.
Normal : Reproduces the standard touch sensitivity of an acoustic
piano. This touch setting is selected when the LED indi-
cator for the TOUCH button is off.
Heavy 1 : Perfect for those with strong fi ngers. Requires a heavier
touch to produce a loud volume.
Heavy 2 : Requires more striking force to achieve a loud volume.
Off : A constant volume is produced regardless of how hard
the keys are struck. This setting is suitable for sounds
that have a fixed dynamic range such as Organ and
Harpsichord.
