Selecting and/or Creating a Temperament
(Scale Tune)
You can change the temperament of the instrument to fit the music you want to play. The operation display can be
called up via [MENU] [Scale Tune].
There are two ways to change the temperament; Main Scale and Sub Scale.
Main Scale:
Sets the basic scale of the instrument. You can choose from an existing scale type or adjust it manually. The setting can be
saved and called up by the Registration Memory function.
Sub Scale:
Temporarily changes the scale only while the Sub Scale is enabled (e.g., when selected by pressing one of the SCALE
TUNE MEMORY [1]–[5] buttons). This lets you temporarily set a Scale Tune setting (which is different from the Main
Scale setting) to the desired parts. This setting takes priority over the Main Scale setting, regarding the checkmarked parts
(see below). You can manually adjust the setting that can be memorized to the SCALE TUNE MEMORY [1]–[5] buttons
or [1]–[5] on the Scale Tune display for instant recall.
You can enable/disable the Sub Scale by touching “Main/Sub” on the display, or by using the function “Scale Tune Quick
Setting” that can be set to the assignable buttons or foot pedals. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website.
For which settings are applied to each part depending on the checkmarks on the display, see the examples below.
