The explanations here apply to step #3 of the procedure on page 133.

Tuning the Overall Pitch — Master Tune

Hz (Hertz)

This unit of measurement refers to the frequency of a sound, and represents the number of times a sound wave vibrates in a second.

n

The Tune function does not affect the Drum Kit or SFX Kit voices.

Selecting a Scale — Scale Tune

The current tuning is shown above or below

the corresponding key.Cent

A unit of pitch equal to 1/100 of a semitone (100 cents = 1 semitone).

You can register your original scale tunings to a REG-

ISTRATION MEMORY button. To do this, check- mark “SCALE” in the REG-

ISTRATION MEMORY display (page 84).

When the base note is changed, the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

pitch of the keyboard is transposed, yet

Determines the note to be tuned and the amount of tuning.

The tuning range is from “-64” through “0” to “+63.” Each increment equals one cent (one “cent” is one hundredth of a semitone).
