Explanation
The velocity produced when you
play a key.
REAL: The velocity will
depend on how strongly you
play the key.
1–127: A fixed velocity will
be produced regardless of
how strongly you play the
key.
Specifies the keyboard's touch
sensitivity.
LIGHT: Light synthesizer
MEDIUM: Normal
HEAVY: Acoustic piano
This is a fine adjustment of the
keyboard sensitivity after the
Keyboard Velocity Curve has
been applied. Higher settings for
this parameter will cause higher
velocity values to be transmitted
as you play the keys more
strongly.
Changing the Pitch in Real Time
(Pitch Bend/Modulation Lever)
While holding down a key, moving the lever to the left will lower the
pitch, and moving it to the right will raise the pitch. This is called
"pitch bend."
Pushing the lever away from yourself will apply vibrato. This is called
"modulation."
Pushing the lever away from yourself while moving it to the left or right
will apply both effects simultaneously.

Pitch bend
The pitch bend range can be specified separately for each patch.
Refer to "Pitch Bend Range Up/Down" (p. 101).
In Performance mode you can make this setting individually for
each part (p. 141).
