. Decay Time

When playing an acoustic grand piano, the length of the instrument influences the speed at which held notes decay,
with longer grand pianos (i.e. longer strings) characterised by longer decay times.
This instrument simulates this characteristic, with the Decay Time setting allowing the length of decay while keys
are pressed to be adjusted.
* This Virtual Technician setting will affect all sounds.
„Adjusting the Decay Time value
„
Long press and drag the slider to adjust the value of the Decay
Time setting.
* The Decay Time value can be adjusted within the range of 1~10, with
larger values resulting in increased decay times.
* Any changes made to the Decay Time setting will remain until the
power is turned off.
* Preferred Decay Time settings can be stored to the sound's memory
(in Sound mode) or a Favorite memory for convenient recall. For
more information, please refer to "1. Storing and Selecting Favorite
memories" on page 79 and "Storing the Virtual Technician settings"
on page 98.

. Minimum Touch

The Minimum Touch setting allows the minimum key velocity required to produce a sound to be adjusted. By default,
this setting recreates the extremely fine touch sensitivity of a concert grand piano, allowing a very soft sound to be
produced with the slightest of key touches. However, it may be desirable to reduce this sensitivity, when wishing to
recreate the sensitivity of a small grand piano or an upright piano.
* This Virtual Technician setting will affect acoustic piano and electric piano sounds.
„Adjusting the Minimum Touch value
„
Long press and drag the slider to adjust the value of the
Minimum Touch setting.
* The Minimum Touch value can be adjusted within the range of 1~20,
with larger values requiring greater key force in order to produce
a sound. For example, a value of 10 will require the keyboard to be
played with a velocity of 10 or above in order to produce a sound.
* Any changes made to the Minimum Touch setting will remain until the
power is turned off.
* Preferred Minimum Touch settings can be stored to the sound's
memory (in Sound mode) or a Favorite memory for convenient recall.
For more information, please refer to "1. Storing and Selecting Favorite
memories" on page 79 and "Storing the Virtual Technician settings"
