Shift functions

The shift functions are used to specify various settings for
the RK-100S. To change a setting, hold down the SHIFT
button and press the appropriate button.
To exit the shift function, press the SHIFT button. In
addition, if no button is pressed for a set length of time, the
shift function will automatically be exited, and the RK-100S
will return to a condition where a program can be selected.
The programs assigned to the favorites buttons and
the settings of the shift functions are saved when the
RK-100S is powered off. If the batteries are nearing
the end of their service life and favorites button A is
blinking (refer to "Battery type and remaining power"
on page 16), these settings cannot be saved. If you have
an AC adapter (optional), connect it.

Velocity curve

This allows you to specify the way that the volume and
tone changes according to the keyboard velocity (force
used to strike keys).
1. Hold down the SHIFT button and press the favorites
A button.
The velocity curve setting appears
in the display.
2. Use the OCTAVE +/- buttons or
the SOUND lever to specify the
velocity curve.
