and the tonal quality
(or timbre) of the sound will change

dynamics (velocity),
or how hard you strike
the keys. The action of pressing a key down after
playing
it
is called "aftertouch." Pitch, tone
and volume can

The volume and tone of the
sound can be
changed by moving this slider
up
and
down while playing
the keyboard. The
functions of the slider
differ depending on the settings.
This is used to change the
tonal quality
of
the
sound; it adjusts the
brightness and clarity.
The higher
the lever
is moved the
more pronounced
the effect becomes.

Further expressive control
is available
with a pedal switch (FS-1
or DP-2) or expression pedal
(EV-5 or
EV-10). By
connecting a pedal switch
to the HOLD jack on the rear

sustain even
after you release
the keys. By connecting an
expression pedal to one of the pedal
jacks,
you can use the
pedat to change the volume
or the tone of the sound.

you can also change
various aspects
of the sound in realtime
by using the eight
parameter sliders,
see the Play
