So I’ve been looking at the poly-aftertouch features of the keyboard.
Starting on page 190 of the Iridium Keyboard Manual ( yes it is online ) there is a description for settings relative to the aftertouch keyboard.
From the Manual :
Calibrate AT Page
Tap on the Calibration AT button to open the display page regarding the polyphonic aftertouch settings. The following options are available:
-
Poly AT Curve determines the sensitivity for the polyphonic aftertouch from Soft to Hard. The default setting is Medium.
-
Poly AT Delay delays the polyphonic aftertouch for a hold and pressed key for the corresponding time amount.
-
AT Min Threshold Min/Max sets the mini- mum/maximum pressure for all keys to trigger the polyphonic aftertouch.
-
AT Key Offset Min/Max sets the offset pressure for the current played key to trigger the polyphonic after-touch. Here, you can make settings for each individual of the 49 key.
The procedure is very simple:
-
Play the desired key on the keyboard. The corresponding key in the display keyboard representation lits in red.
-
Make your settings for this key by using the AT Key Offset Min or Max slider in the touchscreen display. A set value is shown in the graphic grid below the display keyboard representation.
-
Hit any other key and proceed the same setting.
-
Reset Offset resets the current AT key offset to the default settings of 0%.
-
Reset All Offsets resets all AT key offsets to the default settings of 0%.

Can’t tell how many Poly-AT Curve options are available.
So interesting that you can adjust the Poly-AT settings on a per key basis. Can you adjust all at the same time, or do you do the 49 one at a time ? Not sure.
I guess i could see where i might want the Poly-AT reaction to be different across the keyboard.
So i looked carefully through the manual, and searched on-line as well and could not find information relative the keyboard having Note OFF Velocity, also sometimes called Release Velocity. There is a part of the manual that describes how a MIDI Note ON Velocity of zero is treated as a Note OFF but that of course is different.
There is also no Note OFF Velocity parameter provided in the Modulation Sources.
So i think that the keyboard does not have a Note OFF Velocity.
Does anyone have information to the contrary ?
