I wouldn't miss it that much on my VA.. because Aftertouch is ment to give an additional effect After-the-touch and the effects given are in common not the ones that make the part you're playing sounding better.

I just went upstairs to the keyboard that make sure that it was correct, for !me!, that I do not need the aftertouch . And if anyone has tips about using it in a 'positive' way, I would be glad to hear about that .
