No - it's touch sensitive, at least mine is. The velocity response of some
of the buttons is different than others too - always has been. It's not
something one can 'learn' - it's beyond my physical ability to be that
subtle - it's not like sometimes I hit them louder, it's a case the
difference is indiscernably close, and the result is a full volume note -
not just one louder than I meant it to be.

I can do >ok< in the studio, cleaning up after myself, but there's no way I
would ever use it live, unless I found a solution.
