Use the [DATA ENTRY] control, [-1/NO] and
[+1/YES] keys, or numeric and [ENTER] keys to
set the desired degree of note shift.
Details: A setting of "-12," for example, shifts the
pitch of the selected drum element down by one
octave; a setting of "+4" shifts the pitch up by a
major third.
In a drum voice, the note shift function can
be used to create pitched sets of tom-toms or
other instruments.

TUNE

Use the [DATA ENTRY] control, [-1/NO] and
[+1/YES] keys, or numeric and [ENTER] keys to
set the desired tuning value.
Details: Each tuning increment corresponds to a 75/
64-cent change in pitch. The entire tuning range
is therefore 75/64 x 127 (i.e. 64 + 63 incre-
ments) — almost 150 cents. Since 100 cents
equals one semitone, the tuning range is approxi-
mately one and a half semitones. A setting of
"0" produces normal pitch.
