Reproduces the standard touch sensitivity of an acoustic piano. The key touch will become progressively lighter as the number increases. Light touch curves require less striking force to achieve a forte note, and are therefore recommended for players with a delicate touch. Alternatively, if the keyboard feels too heavy, or fortissimo playing is too difficult to achieve, it may be desirable to select a lighter touch curve. However, if the keyboard feels too light, or fortissimo playing is achieved too easily, it may be desirable to select a heavier touch curve.
