post MastrVol: The signal is input after the master volume. With this setting, you can’t use the mas-
ter volume knob to adjust the volume.
4. Battery Type (Battery) [Alkaline, Ni-MH]
To make sure the correct battery level is displayed, set which type of battery you are using.
Alkaline: alkaline batteries
Ni-MH: nickel-metal hydride batteries
5. Auto Power Off (AutoP.Off) [Disable, Enable]
Sets whether the auto power-off function is enabled or disabled.
Disable: The auto power-off function is disabled.
Enable: The power automatically turns off when two hours have elapsed since you operated the
microKORG2.

1. Velocity Curve (VeloCurve) [Curve 1...8, Const Max]
Sets the curve that determines how sensitive the microKORG2 velocity calculation is to how hard you
play the keyboard.
The velocity at which you play can change the volume or tonal color, so this setting lets you adjust
the overall sensitivity at which the volume and tonal color change according to your playing strength.
1, 2, 3: With this curve, the response sensitivity is lower than normal, making it easier to play expres-
sively when you play the keys with greater force.
4: This is the typical curve.
5, 6: These curves let you produce dynamic change without having to play very hard.
7: This curve provides a nearly flat key response, with almost no change in volume when you’re play-
ing with moderate force.
8: This curve provides a nearly flat key response (but is more flat than curve #7), with almost no
change in volume when you’re playing with moderate force.
Const Max: Plays at the maximum velocity value (127).
Note: The curves for 7 and 8 have only a minimal change in volume when you play the keys with mod-
erate force, and work well when velocity response is not important or when you want the notes to
play at a uniform volume. However, these curves are hard to control when you play softly, as the
changes in volume are large. Select the curve that’s most appropriate for your playing dynamics
(velocity) or for the desired effect.
Use caution with the volume when using the post MastrVol setting, as the input audio is
much louder than with other settings.
