PITCH

Adjusting the Pitch

Initially, the Silent Series piano is tuned to the standard Concert Pitch (A=440 hertz).

The pitch, however, can be adjusted in one hertz steps from 438 to 445 hertz (one hertz is about four cents). Different pitches are sometimes used in vocal music and orches- tral performances. If you know the pitch that’s required, use the PITCH switch to set the Silent Series piano beforehand.

You’ll need a small, flatblade screwdriver to adjust the PITCH switch, which is located on the left side of the Control Box, as shown.

NOTE:

The PITCH switch setting is remembered when the Silent Series piano is powered down.

Einstellen der Tonhöhe

Anfangs verwendet das Piano der “Silent”- Serie immer die normale Stimmung (A=440 Hz).

Auf dem Piano der “Silent”-Seriekann die Ton- höhe jedoch im Bereich 438~445 Hz in 1 Hz- Schritten eingestellt werden (1 Hz entspricht ungefähr vier Cent). Bestimmte Musikarten ver- wenden eine andere Stimmung als die der elek- tronischen Instrumente. Wenn Sie wissen, um welche Frequenz es sich dabei handelt, können Sie diese mit dem PITCH-Schalter des Pianos der “Silent”-Serieeinstellen.

Hierfür brauchen Sie einen kleinen flachen Schraubenzieher. Der PITCH-Schalter befindet auf der finken Seite der Steuereinheit. Stellen Sie ihn wie nachstehend gezeigt ein.

HINWEIS:

Da es sich hier um eine physische Änderung handelt, wird diese bei Ausschalten des Piano der “Silent”-Seriegespeichert.

Réglage de la hauteur

Initialement, le piano de la série “Silent” est accordé en fonction du diapason (La=440 Hz).

Sur le piano de la série “Silent”, vous pouvez cependant ajuster la hauteur par pas d’un hertz sur une plage allant de 438 à 445 Hz (un hertz correspond environ à 4 cents). Les hau- teurs utilisées lors de concerts avec chant ou orchestre peuvent varier. Si vous connaissez la hauteur requise, utilisez le sélecteur PITCH pour régler la hauteur du piano de la série “Silent”.

Il vous faut un petit tournevis à tête plate pour modifier la position du sélecteur PITCH, situé du côté gauche du boîtier de commandes, comme vous pouvez le voir ci-dessus.

REMARQUE:

Le réglage du sélecteur PITCH est conservé lors de la mise hors tension du piano de la série “Silent”.
