The setting range is 1 - 9 and C. The more the value gets, the

sion.

like the piano.

TOUCH
The B-3/C-3 had only one built-in Envelope Generator, and was not
recharged until all the UPPER Manuals were released. This looks
like a drawback, but it had the advantage that the sound did not get
loose when chords were roughly played.
1' CANCEL
The B-3/C-3 had no key contact exclusive for percussion but uses
the 1' contact for percussion. On this keyboard, this is simulated.
DRAWBAR LEVEL
On the B-3/C-3, the Drawbar Volume got slightly smaller, if
percussion works This is simulated on this keyboard.
