degree to which the volume level changes in response
to your touch on the keyboard (how hard you play).

organs do not change regardless of how you play the
keyboard, the normal setting for these voices is 127.
(See the setting range below.)
See the procedure on page 72.
In Dual mode:
Setting range:
0 (softest) - 64 (largest changes in the level) - 127
(loudest and fixed)
See the procedure on page 72.
