SELECTING AND PLAYING VOICES — THE VOICE MODE

Tuning

Tuning determines the fine pitch setting of both the main voice and the bass/chord accompaniment of the selected style. It also determines the pitch of the songs and the Multi Pads. This allows you to accurately match the tuning with that of other instruments. The Tuning settings can be adjusted over a range of ± 50 (approx. ± 0.5 semitones).

Select the Tuning function in the Overall menu.

Press the OVERALL t button, repeatedly if necessary, until “Tuning” appears in the display.
