EnglishPlaying the Digital PianoE-9Touch Response alters tone volume in accordance withkeyboard pressure (speed). This provides you some of thesame expressivity you get on an acoustic piano.■ Sound intensity depends on the speed that keysare pressed.People normally believe that the stronger the pressure appliedto a piano keyboard, the louder the sound. Actually, however,the intensity of the notes played depends on the speed atwhich keys are pressed. Notes are louder when keys arepressed quickly, and quieter when keys are pressed slowly.Keeping this in mind as you play a keyboard musicalinstrument lets you control note volume without striving toapply too much pressure with your fingertips.■ The playability of an acoustic pianoYour Digital Piano provides you with key touch that is the nextbest thing to an acoustic piano.
