Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Clavinova over a
±
50-cent range (approximate) in
approximately 1.2-cent or 1-hertz intervals. A hundred “cents” equals one semitone, so the tun-
ing 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.
Pitch Control
● Tuning Up ................................................................................................................................................
Z
To tune up (raise pitch), hold the E0 and F0 keys simultaneously (E0 and F0 are
the two lowest white keys on the keyboard) and press any key between C3 and
B3. Each time a key in this range is pressed the pitch is raised by approximately
1.2 cents, up to a maximum of about 50 cents above standard pitch. To raise the
pitch in 1-hertz increments press the TEMPO [▲] button instead of the C3-B3
keys. The TEMPO [▼] button can also be used to tune down while the E0 and
F0 keys are held.
X
Release the E0 and F0 keys.
● To Restore Standard Pitch* ...................................................................................................................
Z
To restore standard pitch (A3 = 440 Hz), hold the E0, F0, and F#0 keys simulta-
neously and press any key between C3 and B3, or simultaneously press the
TEMPO [▲] and [▼] buttons.
X
Release the E0, F0, and F#0 keys.
* Standard pitch (A3 = 440 Hz) is automatically set whenever the POWER
switch is initially turned on.
NOTES
• The PITCH function does not affect the DRUMS sound.
• Hold either the TEMPO [ ▲ ] or [ ▼ ] button for continuous scrolling in the specified
direction.

The Pitch Display
Example: The approximate pitch of A3 is shown on the TEMPO display in Hertz while the
pitch control function is in operation. The total display range is from approximately
427 hertz (-50 cents) to 453 hertz (+50 cents).
The dots to the right of each figure in the display are used to provide a general
idea of fractional pitches.

● Tuning Down ...........................................................................................................................................
Z
To tune down (lower pitch), hold the E0 and F#0 keys simultaneously and press
any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range is pressed the pitch is
lowered by approximately 1.2 cents, up to a maximum of about 50 cents below
standard pitch. To lower the pitch in 1-hertz increments press the TEMPO [▼]
button instead of the C3-B3 keys. The TEMPO [▲] button can also be used to
tune up while the E0 and F#0 keys are held.
X
Release the E0 and F#0 keys.
