The Key Control setting is remembered even when

•
sound may appear to quaver. This is due to the
processing being applied to the playback, and is
not a malfunction.
TIP
If you turn on both the Key Control function and the
Pitch Control function, the key (pitch) will be specified
by the Key Control function and the speed will be
determined by the Pitch Control function. (In other
words, using Pitch Control to change the speed will
not affect the pitch of the sound). Thus, if you set KEY
LEVEL to
0

can use Pitch Control to change the playback speed by
itself without affecting the pitch.
