EUROGRAND EG8080-

This tuning can only be used for music that strictly follows a
classical cadence comprising tonic, dominant and subdominant.

Pythagorean tuning

The Pythagorean tuning is based on perfect fifths. As a
consequence, all thirds are impure.

This tuning was used for early music up to the late Middle Ages.
The homophonic or two-part polyphonic music of the time did not
use any thirds, but only perfect unison, fourth, fifth and octave
intervals.

Meantone tuning

Meantone tuning resulted from the change in the perception of
dissonant intervals during the Renaissance period and from the
beginnings of chromaticism and polyphony. Polyphony made the
third the most important interval in music. Therefore, meantone
tuning is based on perfect thirds rather than perfect fifths to
tune the twelve notes of a scale. However, this also means that
some scales are unplayable.

Today, the meantone tuning can still be used for works from the
early 16

and 17

centuries (e.g. G. F. Handel).

Werckmeister/Kirnberger tuning

The Werkmeister and Kirnberger tunings result from first attempts
to realize a well-tempered tuning which – unlike the Pythagorean
and meantone tunings – allows for playing in all twelve keys.
The advantages of the Pythagorean and meantone tunings, i.e.
the slight detuning of some fifth intervals, have also been included
in the Werkmeister/Kirnberger tunings

Both tunings are interesting to use for works from the baroque
period (e.g. J. S. Bach). Werkmeister is a popular tuning for
organ works.

The following section describes how to change the tuning of the
EG8080.

6.6.5 Saving parameter settings

The EG8080 allows you to save the changes made to the
instrument’s settings, so that they won’t get lost when the unit is
powered down. When the save function is not active, all changes
made to the settings – except for the music sequencer data –
will be lost when you switch the piano off. When switched back
on, the EG8080 recalls the factory default settings.

The save function can be activated separately for the following
groups of functions: sounds, MIDI, tuning and damper pedal.

Please enter EDIT mode (see chapter 6.1) and select
the following function.
