List of functions
No. Function
1 Reverb
This effect adds ambience and depth to the sound, producing the sense of performing in a concert hall. *1
2 Brilliance
This effect changes the brightness of the sound.
3 Chorus
Chorus adds modulation to the sound, producing an expansively rich sound.
4 Keyboard touch control
Specify how the sound changes in response to the force used when you press a keyboard key. *2
5 Transpose
In some cases, a song may be written in a difficult key (e.g., many black keys), or you may wish to shift the pitch to match
another instrument or vocalist. In such cases, you can transpose (shift the pitch) so that you can use an easier fingering, or
use the same familiar fingering to play at a different pitch.
6 Master tuning
In order to adapt the G1/G1 Air pitch to that of another instrument, you can adjust the pitch in steps of 0.5 Hz.
7 Temperament
Select from nine temperaments, including the equal temperament, classical temperaments and an Arabic temperament. *3

settings" on page 13).

plied to all sounds.

not turn off the piano while "000" appears in the dis-
play.
