Tuning Down

To Restore Standard Pitch*

Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Clavinova over a

±

50-cent range in approximately

1.2-cent intervals. A hundred “cents” equals one semitone, so the tuning range provided allows
fine tuning of overall pitch over a range of approximately a semitone. Pitch control is useful for
tuning the Clavinova to match other instruments or recorded music.
