*From a quick scan through the manual :
" Aftertouch. The action of pressing a key down after playing it is
called aftertouch (it is also sometimes referred to as Pressure
since it corresponds to the amount of pressure being applied to the
keyboard). Pitch, tone and volume (among other things) can be changed
using aftertouch."
.... so what parameter it affects the amount of it is programmable on a
per patch basis, and is a part of that patch. There doesn't seem to be a
global 'off' for it, so you'll need to edit the patches that have it
that you don't want it on, or adapt your playing technique to avoid post
keystroke pressure.
I can imagine a player really liking the aftertouch. It can be
pretty musical, depending on the patch, and what you want to play.
But it's still a bit weird for me. It's a secondary "rocking"
motion on the white keys, but you don't get the same rocking motion on the
black keys. It's more like just more pressure on the black keys.
So from an action "feel" point of view, my impression is that it's
a bit uneven. Although I think if I turned it off, the rocking motion
would be easy enough to ignore.
We shall see!
