Tuning to Other Instruments’ Pitches (Master Tuning)
In situations such as when playing ensemble with other instruments, you can tune the HP101’s standard pitch to the pitch of another instrument. The standard pitch generally refers to the pitch of the note that’s played when you finger the middle A key. This tuning of all the instruments to a standard pitch is called “tuning.”
You can set the standard pitch anywhere in a range of 415.3 Hz to 466.2 Hz.
When the instrument is turned on, the standard pitch is set to “440.0 Hz.”
