KEY SIGNATURE OF TEMPERAMENT
Limitless modulation of the key became available only after the invention
of Equal temperament. When we use a temperament other than Equal
temperament, we must carefully choose the key signature to play in.
To select the key signature of the temperament, simply press one
of the 88 piano keys. The note name of the key you pressed will be
shown in the display and it will be chosen as the key of the
temperament.
For example, if the song you are going to play is written in D major, press
any “D” key to set the temperament key.
Please note that changing the key of the temperament will only change
the “balance” of the tuning, the pitch of the keyboard remains unchanged.
Use the TUNING or TRANSPOSE control to change the pitch of the whole
keyboard.
To exit, press any of the SOUND SELECT buttons or the TOUCH or
the TRANSPOSE button.
BRIEF EXPLANATION OF TEMPERAMENTS
EQUAL TEMPERAMENT (PIANO ONLY)
This is the default temperament. If a piano sound is selected the tuning is
stretched like an acoustic piano (EQUAL TEMPERAMENT). If any other
type of sound is selected the tuning will be EQUAL (FLAT). An explantion
of EQUAL TEMPERAMENT and EQUAL TEMPERAMENT (FLAT) is
provided later in this section.
◆
NOTE
If a piano sound is used in a layer with any other sound then both sounds
will use the EQUAL TEMPERAMENT (Stretched) tuning.
MERSENNE PURE TEMPERAMENT(MAJOR)
MERSENNE PURE TEMPERAMENT(MINOR)
This temperament, which eliminates dissonances for thirds and fifths is
still popular for choral music because of its perfect harmony.
You need to be aware what key you are playing in with this temperament.
Any key modulation will result in dissonances. When you play music in a
particular key, you need to match the key of the temperament as well.
When playing in a major key select Pure (Major) and when playing in a
minor key select Pure (minor).
