Playing Songs Using
Tunings from Classical Music
Your instrument also allows you to perform using the
tunings that were in use at the time that classical
music (such as Baroque) was composed.
Most modern songs are composed based on assump-
tion that equal-tempered tuning, the tuning in use
almost universally today, will be used when perform-
ing. However, in the age of classical music there were
a variety of different tunings in existence. Try per-
forming using tunings from those olden times so you
can hear what the chords in certain pieces sounded
like originally.
Equal temperament is placed in effect each time the
keyboardÕs power is turned on.
1. Press the [Function] button.
The [Function] buttonÕs indicator lights up.
2. Press the [E.Piano] button.
3. Using the Value [+] and [-] buttons, select a tun-
ing (Chart 1).

4. Press the [Harpsi] button.
5. Using the Value [+] and [-] buttons, select a
keynote (Chart 2).
When you want to perform using a tuning other
than equal temperament, youÕll need to specify the
keynote (tonic for major, sixth for minor) appropri-
ate for the key of the song you want to play.
