Calibrate the sensitivity of the touch sensors.
Use these steps to adjust the sensitivity of the touch sensors
depending on your playing environment, if they do not seem
to operate as you like.

While holding down the EXIT and CONTROL buttons,
press the power button to turn on the VOX Continental.
The LEDs of the touch sensor on the leftmost side will start
to light up and down.

lights as they move.
When the touch sensor that is lit is finished calibrating, the
LEDs on the next touch sensor will start to light up and
down.

In the same way, trace along the touch sensor to chase the
LED lights as they move.
Do this until you have calibrated all the touch sensors from
left to right.
When all touch sensors have been calibrated, you will be
able to play.
12. Restoring the VOX Continental
to factory-set default settings
The VOX Continental can be returned to its factory default
settings.
This will reset (initialize) the scene data and system
setting data. Any newly created scene data will be
overwritten, and your data will be lost. If you want to
keep your scene data, save the data to a USB storage
device (commercially available). Also, all system settings
(including calibration data) will be reset, and you will
need to make your settings and perform calibration once
more.
While resetting, do not turn off the power, play the
keyboard, or move any buttons, knobs or controllers.
Doing so may cause the reset operation to fail, and you
may be unable to use the instrument.

factory default settings.
The following characters will blink in the VARIATION
displays, and after several seconds the keyboard will be
able to be played normally.
