Match the tuning to another instrument (master tuning)
When playing in an ensemble or other situations with other instruments, you can adjust the reference pitch of this instrument to match its tuning with other instruments.
The reference pitch is usually expressed as the frequency that is heard when you play the middle A (A4) note. When performing in an ensemble with other instruments, the instruments should all be tuned to the same reference pitch for a satisfying sound. The act of matching the reference pitch to other instruments is called “tuning”.
- Press one of the C2–D´2 keys while holding down the [Ċ] button to set the master tuning.
Key pressed | Explanation |
|---|---|
C2 | Each press decreases the reference pitch by 0.1 Hz. |
C´2 | Sets the reference pitch to 440.0 Hz. |
D2 | Each press increases the reference pitch by 0.1 Hz. |
D´2 | Sets the reference pitch to 442.0 (the default value). |
Setting range | 415.3–466.2 Hz (default: 442.0 Hz) |
- If you want to save this setting, use the “Memory backup” operation. If the power is turned off without backing up the memory, the settings return to their default values.
