Settings for the Entire FANTOM
Keyboard Settings (KEYBOARD)
Parameter Value Explanation
Keyboard Velocity
Specifies the velocity transmitted when a key is played.
REAL
The transmitted velocity value will
correspond to the force with which
you strike the key.
1–127
The transmitted velocity value will
be fixed, regardless of the force with
which you strike the key.
Keyboard Velocity Curve
LIGHT
The keyboard will have a
lighterfeeling touch. Since you’ll be
able to reach fortissimo (ff ) without
having to play as strongly as with
the “MEDIUM” setting, the keyboard
will feel lighter. This setting makes it
easier for people with reduced finger
strength to play the keyboard.
MEDIUM
This is the standard keyboard touch
setting.
HEAVY
The key will have a heavier-feeling
touch. Since you’ll need to play more
strongly than with the “MEDIUM”
setting in order to reach fortissimo
(ff), the keyboard will feel heavier. This
setting allows you to use your playing
dynamics to add more expression to
your performances.
Keyboard Velocity Curve
Offset
-10–+9
Adjusts the keyboard velocity curve.
Lower values make the keyboard
feel lighter. Higher values make the
keyboard feel heavier.

Specifies whether high-resolution
