Continue the same procedure to set the pitch for all keys.

The user temperament data is saved automatically even after the power

 

is turned off. However, You must re select the user temperament each

 

time you turn the power on unless you save it as your default temperament

 

by using the User Memory function. Please see page 48 in this section for

 

more information on User Memory.

NOTE

After you have selected the desired temperament, please read the following

 

section on selecting a key signature for the temperament before

 

continuing.

5.KEY OF TEMPERAMENT

Limitless modulation of the key became available only after the invention of Equal temperament. When we use a temperament other than Equal temperament, we must carefully choose the key signature to play in.

For example, if the song you are going to play is written in D major, choose “D” as the temperament key.

After selecting the “Key Signature” function by pressing the MENU buttons, use the VALUE buttons to set the desired key.

5 Key of Temper

= C

The LCD display shows the currently selected key

signature .

Please note that changing the key of the temperament will only change the “balance” of the tuning, the pitch of the keyboard remains unchanged. Use the TUNING or TRANSPOSE functions to change the pitch of the whole keyboard.
