THE TUNE PAGE
The next soft key is the key and this takes us, not surprisingly, to the main program
tuning page. Pressing will give you this display:
As usual, the program name is displayed at the top right of the screen - a different one may be
selected if you wish.
In this page, you set up different tuning temperaments for each program, if desired. If you are
playing a percussive sample (for example, congas) in one program, which you do not want to
correspond to standard Western chromatic equal temperament tuning, this is where you can
alter things. Select the program whose temperament is to be altered on the top line of this
screen. Use the CURSOR keys to select the note on the keyboard octave which will be re-
tuned, and use the DATA control to alter the tuning away from equal temperament by ±25
cents (one quarter-tone). If you are re-tuning the C# key, for example, all notes played with the
C# keys on the keyboard will be detuned by the amount you have set. You may tune the scale
to anything you want which can be very useful for enriching orchestral sounds and also for
setting your own special scales
To help you with this, there are also some alternative tuning templates which are selected in
the field . These offer preset tunings which you can apply to the program.
The other parameter in this page is the function. This transposes the
program +/-50 semitones. This may be adjusted in very fine steps (100ths of a tone) for fine
tuning the program.
Those, then, are the master pages for the program where you can set parameters that affect
the program as a whole. In any of the pages described, you may always directly access another
from the soft keys.
