Customizing with Function Parameters
P-255 Owner’s Manual

F6.8 Touch sensitivity
This parameter can be used to adjust the degree to which
the digital piano reflects differences in the strength of your
playing in the sound produced.
•Available settings: 1 .......Soft: Makes it possible to produce loud
sounds when playing softly.
2 .......Medium: Replicates the standard
response of a piano.
3 .......Hard: Requires the keys to be played
quite hard in order to produce loud
sounds.
OFF ..Fixed: All notes are produced at the
same volume regardless of how hard or
soft you play. The fixed volume can be
set using Function parameter F6.9.
•Default setting: 2
F6.9 Fixed touch-sensitivity volume
Using this parameter, you can set the volume to be used
when Function parameter F6.8 is set to “OFF” (Fixed).
•Available settings: 1 (minimum volume) to 127 (maximum volume)
•Default setting: 64
The following parameters can be used to make MIDI-
related settings and to also send them to other devices. For
more information on MIDI, please refer to the MIDI Basics
pdf manual (page 6). The MIDI settings described below
affect not only the exchange of MIDI data via the MIDI ter-
minals but also via the [USB TO HOST] terminal.
F7.1 MIDI send channel
In order for two MIDI devices to exchange data with one
another, the MIDI send channel (1 to 16) on the sending
device must match the MIDI receive channel on the receiv-
ing device. Using Function parameter F7.1, you can set the
MIDI channel on which the digital piano will send the data
you produce by playing the keyboard.
•Available settings: 1 to 16 and OFF (no data sent)
•Default setting: 1
Voice 2 from Dual mode and the left Voice from Split mode
will send data on the next channel after the one set using this
parameter. (Voice 1 and the right channel use the channel set
here.) No data is sent by any Voices when “OFF” is selected.
Song data
Yo ur digital piano does not normally send data contained in
songs via the [OUT] MIDI terminal. However, if you have
selected “1&2” as the MIDI song playback channels using Func-
tion parameter F7.3 and play a non-protected MIDI song, data
from channels 3 through 16 will be sent.
F7.2 MIDI receive channel
In order for two MIDI devices to exchange data with one
another, the MIDI send channel (1 to 16) on the sending
device must match the MIDI receive channel on the receiv-
ing device. Using Function parameter F7.2, you can set the
MIDI channel on which the digital piano will receive data
sent by another MIDI device.
•Available settings: ALL, 1 to 16, and 1&2
•Default setting: ALL
Meaning of “ALL” setting
If you set “ALL” for this parameter, all data will be received from
the sending device, regardless of its channel. This allows your
digital piano to play a multi-channel song from a sequencer or
the like.
Meaning of “1&2” setting
If you set this parameter to “1&2”, your digital piano will receive
and play only data sent on MIDI channels 1 and 2 by a
sequencer or the like.
F7.3 MIDI song playback channels
With this parameter shown on the display, you can use the
[-/NO] and [+/YES] buttons to select the playback channels
for MIDI songs.
•Available settings: ALL and 1&2
•Default setting: ALL
When “ALL” is selected, all channels (1 to 16) will be
played. If you select “1&2”, data on channels 1 and 2 will
be played, but data on the other channels (3 to 16) will be
sent to the connected MIDI device.
F7.4 Local control on/off status
Using this parameter, you can specify whether or not the
digital piano’s internal tone generator is actually to produce
sound in response to playing of the keyboard. Normally,
you would have the tone generator respond to signals from
the keyboard, and Local Control is said to be turned on in
such a case. If you turn Local Control off, the instrument’s
tone generator will be essentially disconnected from the
keyboard. In this condition, no sound will be produced in
response to playing of the keyboard and no MIDI perfor-
mance data will be sent. However, the internal tone genera-
tor will respond to MIDI data received from another MIDI
device.
•Available settings: ON and OFF
•Default setting: ON
• Changing the touch sensitivity has no effect on the weights of the keys.
The touch sensitivity setting applies to all Voices. However, certain Voices do not
respond to differences in playing strength and are not affected by this setting.
Refer to the Voice List (page 51) for details.
• The fixed touch-sensitivity volume applies to all Voices.
