Scale Tuning
Fine-tune the selected note in 1-cent steps.
Coarse-tune the selected key in 10-cent steps.
When the ARABIC scale is selected, you can select
the note and tune it . The tuning range is from "-64"
through "0" to "+63". Each increment equals one
cent (one "cent" is one hundredth of a semitone).
Select either the normal equal temperament
scale or an "arabic" scale in which each note
can be tuned over a 127-cent range.

Set the parameters of
the selected function.
The current tuning of
each note is shown in the
corresponding key.
This allows you to store
four different Scale Tuning
settings to Multi Pad bank
#60. This convenient fea-
ture lets you change Scale
Tuning settings while you
are playing, simply by
pressing the appropriate
Multi Pad.
