Tuning; Tuning Up; Tuning Down; To Restore Standard Pitch - Yamaha P-80 Owner's Manual

Tuning

Tuning makes it possible to adjust the pitch of the P-80 over a 427.0 Hz ...
453.0 Hz (corresponding to the A3 note's Hz) range in approximately 0.2 Hertz
intervals. Pitch control is useful for tuning the P-80 to match other instruments or
recorded music.

Tuning Up

......................................................................................................
Z
To tune up (raise pitch), hold the A-1 and B-1 keys simulta-
neously.
X
Press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this
range is pressed the pitch is increased by approximately 0.2 Hz.
The [–/NOM] and [+/YESL] buttons can also be used to tune
down or up, respectively, in approximately 1 Hz increments.
Press the [–/NOM] and [+/YESL] buttons simultaneously to
recall standard tuning (A3 = 440 Hz).
C
Release the A-1 and B-1 keys.

Tuning Down

..............................................................................................
Z
To tune down (lower pitch), hold the A-1 and A#-1 keys
simultaneously.
X
Press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range
is pressed the pitch is decreased by approximately 0.2 Hz.
The [–/NOM] and [+/YESL] buttons can also be used to tune
down or up, respectively, in approximately 1 Hz increments.
Press the [–/NOM] and [+/YESL] buttons simultaneously to
recall standard tuning (A3 = 440 Hz).
C
Release the A-1 and A#-1 keys.

To Restore Standard Pitch

Z
To restore the default pitch (A3 = 440 Hz), hold the A-1, A#-1
and B-1 keys simultaneously.
X
Press any key between C3 and B3.
C
Release the A-1, A#-1 and B-1 keys.
In terms of "Hertz", the overall tuning range is from 427.0 Hz to
453.0 Hz. The current tuning setting is shown on the LED display while
the tuning is being adjusted. Tenths of a Hertz are indicated on the LED
display by the appearance and position of one or two dots, as in the
following example:
Display Value
440 440.0
4. 4 0 440.2
44. 0
440.4
440. 440.6
4. 4 0. 440.8
• An alternative tuning method is available in the Function mode — page 27.
