Keyboard Settings

Using Baroque Pitch

During the Baroque Era, standard pitch (A4) was lower than the modern standard. The Baroque pitch setting of your digital piano lets you play Baroque era music at the pitch it was written for.

Use the keys shown below to change the Baroque pitch setting.

Setting Range

G5 A￿5 (black key)

A￿5 .... ON: Baroque pitch (A4 = 415.3Hz)

G5 ..... OFF: Modern standard (A4 = 440.0Hz)

To turn Baroque pitch off and on

1Hold down the SETTING button. Note that you must keep the SETTING button depressed until step 3, below.

2While still holding down the SETTING button, switch baroque pitch on or off by pressing one of the keyboard keys illustrated below.
