Select monophonic or polyphonic playback. Select whether the Voice is played back monophonically (single notes only) or polyphonically (multiple simultaneous notes).

❏Settings: mono, poly

■Assign

If you set Key Assign to “single,” the doubled playback of the same note is prevented. The synthesizer will terminate a note when the same note is received again. If you select “multi,” the synthesizer will consecutively assign each instance of the same received note to a separate channel, making multiple part tone generation possible.

Equal temperament

 

The “compromise” tuning used for most of

 

 

 

the last 200 years of Western music, and

 

 

 

found on most electronic keyboards. Each

 

 

 

half step is exactly 1/12 of an octave, and

 

 

 

music can be played in any key with equal

 

 

 

ease. However, none of the intervals are

 

 

 

perfectly in tune.

 

 

 

 

01~12

Pure major

C~B

This tuning is designed so that most of the

 

 

 

intervals (especially the major third and

 

 

 

perfect fifth) in the major scale are pure. This

 

 

 

means that other intervals will be

 

 

 

correspondingly out of tune. You need to

 

 

 

specify the key (C~B) you will be playing in.

 

 

 

 

13~24

Pure minor

A~G#

The same as Pure Major, but designed for

 

 

 

the minor scale.

 

 

 

 

25

Werckmeister

 

Andreas Werckmeister, a contemporary of

 

 

 

Bach, designed this tuning so that keyboard

 

 

 

instruments could be played in any key.

 

 

 

Each key has a unique character.

 

 

 

 

26

Kirnberger

 

Johan Philipp Kirnberber was also

 

 

 

concerned with tempering the scale to allow

 

 

 

performances in any key.

 

 

 

 

27

Vallotti & Young

 

Francescantonio Vallotti and Thomas Young

 

 

 

(both mid–1700s) divised this adjustment to

 

 

 

the Pythagorean tuning in which the first six

 

 

 

fifths are lower by the same amount.

 

 

 

 

28

1/4 shifted

 

This is the normal equal tempered scale

 

 

 

shifted up 50 cents.

 

 

 

 

29

1/4 tone

 

Twenty–four equally spaced notes per

 

 

 

octave. (Play twenty–four notes to move one

 

 

 

octave.)

 

 

 

 

30

1/8 tone

 

Forty–eight equally spaced notes per octave.

 

 

 

(Play forty–eight notes to move one octave.)
