you want to play in an ensemble. Each
time

very slightly, up to a maximum of 50
cents above the preset level. Whenever
is pressed, the pitch drops slightly,
also to a maximum of 50 cents.
Notes:
1. If you hold down one of the PITCH controls, the
pitch will change continuously.
2. If you press both of the PITCH controls together,
the pitch will return to the preset level (A
