Scale Tune

The XV-5080 allows you to use temperaments other than equal temperament. The pitch of each note can be adjusted in one-cent steps (1/100th of a semitone) relative to its equal- tempered pitch.

One set of Scale Tune settings can be created in Patch mode. In Performance mode and GM system mode, each Part can have its own Scale Tune settings.

*The selected scale applies to MIDI messages received from an external MIDI device as well as to local sound generation.

Switch (Scale Tune Switch)

Turn this on when you wish to use a tuning scale other than equal temperament.

Patch Scale C–B

Range: -64– +63

Key Scale C–B
