The keyboard of the Mark-Pro TWOi has 88 weighted hammer action keys that
will ensure you will have the original piano feeling when playing. They are also
touch-sensitive for a true piano feel. In other words, the harder you press the
keys (the faster, to be exact), the louder and brighter the sound gets. It is called
"velocity-sensitive" in more technical terms. The Mark-Pro TWOi provides you
with 7 different sensitivity levels you can choose from for the entire keyboard.
See "keyboard touch" on page 41 for more information on the touch sensitivity
level.
In addition to the keyboard, the Mark-Pro TWOi is equipped with sustain,
sostenuto and soft pedals for the complete acoustic piano experience. These
pedals functions exactly the same as those on grand pianos:
The soft pedal makes the volume softer when pressed. But
SOFT
it will not affect the volume of notes that are already played.
Press the sostenuto pedal while holding a note on the
SOSTENUTO
keyboard, and the note will sustain as long as you hold the
pedal. But all the subsequently play notes will not be
sustained.
SUSTAIN
The Sustain pedal lets the notes ring on after the keys are
released. Releasing the pedal will silence the sustained
notes.
