You can use the procedure below to instantly fine tune the
note assigned to all the keyboard keys that play it in 1 cent
(1/100 semitone) steps.
1.
Use buttons D-6 (KEY C) through D-17 (KEY B)
to specify the key whose note you want to fine
tune. Hold down the button you want until the
scale fine tuning screen shown below appear.
Example: To fine tune the E-note keys
• The button you press will start flashing.
2.
Use the dial or the R-14 (–, +) buttons to adjust
the tuning value.
• You can fine tune a note within in the range of –99
through +99 cents. Play something on the keyboard to
check the effect of your tuning.
3.
Press the button you pressed in step 1 (the one
that is flashing).
• This will exit the scale fine tuning screen and the button
will change from flashing to lit, indicating that it is on.
4.
To return a note to its normal tuning, press the
applicable button again so it becomes unlit
(off).
• Each press of a button toggles it between on (note is
tuned) and off (normal tuning).
• To return all 12 notes to their normal (equal
temperament) tuning, select 01 (Equal Temperament)
for the setting under “Selecting a Preset Scale” (page
E-23).
• While the scale fine tuning screen is displayed, you can
change the displayed note name by using the R-17 (t)
button to select “Note”, and then the R-14 (–, +) buttons to
scroll through note names. After selecting “Note” as
described above, you also can specify a note by pressing a
key on the keyboard.
• You also can display the scale fine tuning screen from the
scale screen. For details, see the “NOTE” under “Selecting
a Preset Scale” (page E-23).
