@ Touch Sensitivity
This parameter controls changes in the volume of the tone
accordance with the pressure applied to the keyboard keys
greater positive value increases the volume of the output as pr
sure increases, while a negative value decreases volume w
increased keyboard pressure. A setting of zero specifies no char
in output volume in accordance with keyboard pressure, T

creation a bit quicker and easier.
Use a preset tone that is similar to the one you are trying to ©
ate. 2
Whenever you already have a rough idea of the tone youa
trying to create, it is always a good idea to start with a pres
tone that is similar. If you want to use a layered tone, start 0
with a 2DCO tone.
Determine the most important parameter.
The PCM Set and Amp Envelope Set parameters are the maj
factors that determine the overall personality of a tone. Start o
with these two parameters to get the general sound you wai
and then use the other parameters to add the finishing touche
Experiment with various different settings.
There are no real rules about what a tone should sound like. L
your imagination run free and experiment with different comt
nations. You may be surprised at what you can achieve.
