• If you change the tone setting while a keyboard key is
depressed, the tone does not change until you release the key
and press a keyboard key again.
• With certain tones (such as percussion sounds and sound
effects), there may be very little or no change at all in the pitch,
no matter which keyboard key you press.
• If you input the wrong first digit for a tone number, you can
return to the previous setting by pressing the TONE button.
