voice stealing and volume ramping questions

[wwjd]

First off, no, I have not read through the whole manual yet and it is probably in there and I suck etc etc

That out of the way, I wonder if any of you can help me? sometimes I play with the sustain pedal held down and a couple octave keys HELD DOWN with my left hand on the lower keyboard. I expected the keys I held to not be stolen as I move the right hand around, but they were - when the sustain pedal is down. Is there a setting to change that? Am I saying it right?

Also, the low end seems weak on many patches simply because the high end is too loud in relation. Is there a keyboard mapped volume curve I can setup so it's louder in the lower notes, than the upper?

If ya tell me to go read the manual, I guess I deserve that, but hope I can just get some free advice from here.

1 yes you can make the voice allocate different :like steal oldest/newest/etc unfortunately i have to point you to the manual for that one, as i can't remember now if it were at the unison or the global/keyboard page .

2 modulate the vca and /or vcf envelope- level ( 3 and or 2) by the keynumber , negatively. ( every envelope has 3 assignable controler possibilities./gray buttons above them, use one of those, take keynumber as source and give it a negative value, take level as destignation )
other possibility would be controlling/modulating a couple of pre or post mixer levels by the keynumber, however you always only have one gray button which you might want to spare ( it might give some special effect though)

yeah I got now thanks guys! But you know it is still not acting like I like. If I HOLD the keys, THOSE KEYS should not be stolen. but alas, I will work within the paramaters of this older maching. oh well I just gotta change ME, not it.
