Value
Explanation
-12–0 (factory setting)–12
Decreasing the value by one will lower the overall pitch of the
song by a semitone. Increasing the value by one will raise the
overall pitch of the song by a semitone. A setting of “0” is the
original key of the song.
However if this is set to -12, you won't be able to lower the Pitch
setting (Page 76) any further.
If this is set to 12, you won't be able to raise the Pitch any
further.
* If you change the key setting during playback, the audio will
be interrupted momentarily.
