EMPERAMENT

Limitless modulation of the key became available only after the invention

of Equal temperament. When we use a temperament other than Equal

temperament, we must carefully choose the key signature to play in.

For example, if the song you are going to play is written in D major, choose

“D” as the temperament key.

After selecting the “Key Signature” function by pressing the MENU
buttons, use the VALUE buttons to set the desired key.

The LCD display shows the currently selected key
signature .

Please note that changing the key of the temperament will only change

the “balance” of the tuning, the pitch of the keyboard remains unchanged.

Use the TUNING or TRANSPOSE functions to change the pitch of the

whole keyboard.
