Tuning
As with all analog instruments, the monologue’s circuitry can drift over time
during performance due to changes in environment and temperature. The
monologue provides an auto-tuning function that automatically tunes the in-
strument’s analog circuits on demand, to correct for any analog drift.
As you continue to play the monologue for a while right after you’ve turned
it on, the pitch and tone may gradually drift. If the pitch drift becomes notice-
able, use the steps below to tune the instrument. This will manually bring the
monologue back into tune.
1.
Press the REC buon while holding down the SHIFT buon.
Tuning will begin, and the display will indicate “Tuning...”.
The tuning will take about 15 seconds.
During tuning, you will temporarily be unable to play the monologue.
Microtuning function
Microtuning is a method of changing the equal temperament tuning scale nor-
mally used on the keyboard to a dierent tuning.
The monologue includes dierent preset microtunings, and allows you to cre-
ate your own microtunings.
There are 12 microtunings available for editing. Six of these tunings are “user
scales”, where the pitch of any note on the keyboard can be changed; and the
remaining six tunings are “user octaves”, where the tunings of each key in a
single octave can be changed, which will then repeat across the keyboard.
A dierent microtuning can be selected for each program on the monologue.
For details, refer to “Microtuning” (p. 32), PROGRAM EDIT mode.
