Intonation Table Editor
Used in conjunction with the Intonation Switch and Reference Key parameters in the Tuning Editor, the Intonation Editor
allows you to micro-tonally adjust the width of the intervals between each note.
Be aware that in order to hear your changes, the Intonation Switch in the Tuning Editor must be on (see Tuning Editor).
Using the Intonation Editor
When the display reads NOTE, you can change the value of the displayed note away from its equal-tempered value. Select a
new value using the numeric keypad and press ENTR or use INCR and DECR to change the value in 1 cent increments. The
default value is 0 cents, meaning that equal temperament is applied to the scale.
The note selected with the Reference Key parameter in the Tuning Editor will be used as the reference key for the new
tuning. Some different common tunings are given in Table 13-2.
