[Parameters memorised in the Arrangement and Key-
board Set]
In this page you can choose the scale (or temperament)
that the arrangement automatically assigns to the key-
board tracks when it is selected. The accompaniment
tracks, instead, always use the Main Scale pro-
grammed in the Global (see page 164).
Scale type
[EQUAL TEMP…USER SCALE 14]
EQUAL TEMP.
Equal temperament. This scale is nor-
mally used nowadays, in traditional
Western music. Consists of 12 abso-
lutely identical semitones.
EQUAL TEMP. 2
The same as the previous setting, but
with some irregularities in pitch, con-
senting a more realistic imitation of
acoustic instruments.
PURE MAJOR
The major chords of the selected key
will be perfectly tuned.
PURE MINOR
The minor chords of the selected key
will be perfectly tuned.
ARABIC
Arabic scale, with quarter tones. The
Key parameter should be set to C for
“rast C/bayati D”, to D for “rast D/
bayati E”, to F for “rast F/bayati G”,
to G for “rast G/bayati A”, to A# for
“rast B b/bayati C”.

Greek theory. It is suitable for play-
ing melodies.

SLENDRO
Indonesian gamelan scale. The
octave is divided into 5 notes (C, D,
F, G, A). The remaining notes will
play equal temperament notes.

Indonesian scale. The octave is
divided into 7 notes (all the white
keys, if the key parameter is assigned
to C tonic). The black keys will play
equal temperament.
USER SCALE 1…14
One of the 14 scales that you create
on “Page 21: User scale” of the
Disk/Global mode.

When a scale other than Equal Temperament or
Equal Temperament 2 is selected, the TRANSPOSE but-
tons may cause undesired chords to be recognized.
