1. BRILLIANCE

Brilliance lets you adjust brightness of the preset sounds.

After selecting the “Brilliance” function by pressing the Piano button, use the Value buttons to change the value to the desired amount. The LED display shows the brilliance setting with a num- ber. “0” indicates the standard setting. Brilliance can be set between -10 to +10. Plus settings produce a brighter tone, minus settings produce a mellower tone.

Brilliance settings are global for all the preset sounds. You can not have an individual setting for each sound.

2. TUNING

Tuning allows you to adjust the piano’s pitch. You may need to adjust the tuning when you play with other instruments.

After selecting the “Tuning” function by pressing the E.Piano button, use the Value buttons to adjust the tuning. A tuning tone can be heard. The LED display shows the pitch for “A” in Hz (Hertz). For example, 40.0 stands for 440.0 Hz. The range of adjustment is from

427.0to 453.0 Hz. The factory preset value is set to the modern standard A = 440.0 Hz.
