Touch settings
The keyboard sensitivity, or touch, can be programmed.
To change the setting, hold down the TOUCH button and
press the + or – button beside the display.
Display Touch sensitivity
001 Light. Loud notes can be produced even by play-
ing lightly.
002 Normal. Normal piano touch.
003 Heavy. Loud notes can be produced only by play-
ing very hard.
004 Stable. Sensitivity variations are reduced, and a
relatively stable sound is produced.
005 Steady. Steady notes are produced, like with an or-
gan, regardless of the force used to press the key.
When the instrument is turned on, the touch setting is
reset to 002 (Normal).
The settings are applied to all sounds.
Transpose
In some cases, a song may be written in a difficult key (e.g.,
many black keys), or you may wish to shift the pitch to
match another instrument or vocalist. In such cases, you
can transpose (shift the pitch) so that you can use an easier
fingering, or use the same familiar fingering to play at a dif-
ferent pitch. This is called the Transpose function.
For example if you transpose upward by one semitone,
playing the notes shown at the lower left will produce the
pitches shown at the right.
While holding down the TRANSPOSE button, press the
keyboard key (F#6–F7) for the desired transposition.
If a keyboard key other than C7 is pressed, the TRANSPOSE
button lights up to indicate that the keyboard is transposed.
The pitch of the entire keyboard is transposed according
to the pitch of the pressed keyboard key in relation to C7.
To return to the original pitches, hold down the TRANS-
POSE button and press the C7 key.
The TRANSPOSE button turns off, and transposition is canceled.
