MENUS & 

BUTTONS

There are 4 function buttons on the Legato that 

control various functions. These are Reverb, 

Chorus, Metronome and Tempo.
Reverb and Chorus Buttons
The Reverb and Chorus effects may be applied 

to each voice individually and will be retained 

even when the power is turned off.
To apply either effect, press either button. The 

button will light and the effect will be heard 

when the piano is played.
To turn off the effect, press the button of the 

desired effect again and the LED light will go off. 
To modify the depth of the effects
1.  Press and hold the effect button
2.  While this function is active the LED should 

blink. You can then release the button and 

press a key on the keyboard corresponding 

to the setting you want for the reverb 

depth. It's possible to change the setting by 

pressing multiple keys after each other until 

the right setting is found.

3.  Set the reverb depth by pressing a key on 

the keyboard to select the value. See the 

Appendix for the value ranges.

4.  The keyboard should still play the sound 

originally selected so the user can hear the 

new setting with the sound selected.

Reverb should be activated upon exit and 

the LED button light.

Reverb and Chorus settings are set per

the previous state.

Tempo Button
This affects the speed of the metronome.

button for 3 seconds to change the setting. 

The LED will blink to current tempo speed.  

If the Metronome is off, no sound will be 

heard.

tempo. The LED will blink to the new value. 

It is possible to make multiple changes and 

see the LED tempo change as the keys are 

pressed. 

3.  To exit, press the tempo button. The LED 

will stop blinking and go off. See Appendix.

Tempo defaults to 120 but settings are retained 

over power cycling. 120BPM = C3 or Middle C.
Advanced Functions/Edit mode for Metronome 

and Tempo See Appendix pg 15.
Changing the Time Signature
Pressing the Metronome and Tempo butons 

allows the user to change the time signature for 

the metronome. When this menu is selected the 

metronome starts playing at the current tempo 

setting. Pressing G#0 toggles through the time 

signature options starting with the current 

setting. Default is 4/4 and the following options 

are available to toggle through: 2/4, 3/4, 4/4,
