octaves. Press the OCTAVE +/– buttons together to reset the octave shift to zero. The octave shift
value will be shown under the Oct tag on the second row of the screen.
Note: This adjustment is only for Zone 1 in the current Preset. If you engage zones 2–4 or select another
Preset, the octave shift value will change according to the setting in the zone. Please refer to the sec-
tion "Zones Mode" on page 20 for more information.

tones. Press the TRANSPOSE +/– buttons together to reset the transpose shift to zero. The trans-
pose value will be shown under the Trans tag on the second row of the screen.

Preset, the transpose value will change according to the setting in the zone. Please refer to the section
"Zones Mode" on page 20 for more information.
Aftertouch
The keyboard features aftertouch. After hitting a key, keep pressure on the key, and the channel
aftertouch (value common to all keys) message will be transmitted. You can change the control of
the aftertouch in Setup Mode (p. 17). The transmitting port and channel follow the port and chan-
nel settings of Zone 1.
Velocity Curve
The keyboard is velocity sensitive. There are ten selectable velocity curves. Refer to Selecting
the Keyboard Velocity Curve on p. 18 to understand how to select a curve.
Modulation Wheel
The MODULATION wheel is usually used to add vibrato effects to tones you are playing. The
data range of the MODULATION wheel is 0–127. The transmitting port and channel follow the
port and channel settings of Zone 1.
PITCH BEND Wheel
The PITCH BEND wheel is used to bend notes played on the keyboard by raising or lowering the
pitch. The response and range of the controller is based on the patch or sound source that is
being controlled. The pitch bend wheel is spring-mounted and will return to the center position
when it is released.
Pedal
The default setting for the pedal input is sustain. You can assign another control to the pedal
in the Setup Mode. The transmitting port and channel follow the port and channel settings of
Zone 1. Refer to the section "Pedal Setup" on page 19 to learn how to assign the pedal.
Note: Do not step on the pedal when powering on the keyboard. The unit will detect the polarity of
the pedal automatically.
