Note: If you enter editing later, you might see a different edit

page instead of the first one. Use the SCROLL button to reach it.

1.After having kept the EDIT button pressed, the Master Tune page will appear:

Master Tune	3
440.0 Hz

Setting	Tuning
415 ~ -439.5	Lower tuning. The lowest value corresponds to
	about -100 cents (one semitone) from the stan-
	dard tuning.
440	Standard tuning

440.5~ 465 Higher tuning. The highest value corresponds to about +100 cents (one semitone) over the stan- dard tuning.

3.Press the EXIT button to return to the Main or Song Play page and save the changes (see “Exit from the Global edit

mode” on page 47), or the SCROLL button to go to the next edit page (see below).

Brilliance

Brilliance is the sound’s brightness. You can set an overall in- crease or decrease of brilliance.

This is the same parameter you can change with the BRIL- LIANCE button (see page 17). However, contrary to the but- ton, these changes can be memorized, and are preserved even when turning the instrument off.

Note: Brilliance changes can be recorded into a song. If you lat- er change them again, values recorded in the song are left un- changed.

1.After having kept the EDIT button pressed, use the

SCROLL button to show the Brilliance page. As an al- ternative, press the BRILLIANCE button to immediately access the Brilliance page:

Brilliance 4

Normal

After having chosen a brilliance value different than Nor- mal, the BRILLIANCE indicator will turn on.

2.Use the +/YES and -/NO button to change the brilliance. The following table lists the available settings.

Setting	Brilliance
Very Mellow, Mellow	The sound becomes darker.
Normal	Normal tone.
Bright, Very Bright	The sound becomes brighter.

3.Press the EXIT button to return to the Main or Song Play page and save the changes (see “Exit from the Global edit

mode” on page 47), or the SCROLL button to go to the next edit page (see below).

Default split point

You can set a default split point, that will be automatically re- called each time you press the SPLIT button when playing sounds.

Note: The split point may be different from the default split point, if you change it after turning the instrument on. Also, it may vary when choosing a performance with two sounds in Split mode. The last selected split point remains selected, until you turn the instrument off.

1.After having kept the EDIT button pressed, use the

SCROLL button to show the Split Point page:

Split Point	5

3.Press the EXIT button to return to the Main or Song Play page and save the changes (see “Exit from the Global edit

mode” on page 47), or the SCROLL button to go to the next edit page (see below).
