Temperament

The CP offers not only equal temperament (the modern standard) but also immediate access to
temperaments popular during the Renaissance and Baroque periods.
You can also create your own User tuning Temperament as well.
1) Select Temperament from the System Menu. The LCD screen will display the
Temperament screen.
2) Select your desired Temperament with the L and R buttons.
3) Set the Temperament Key with the F2 and F3 buttons.
4) If you select Equal temperament, use the F5 and F6 buttons to set Stretch Tuning to
On, Off, or Piano Only. (For an explanation of Equal and Equal Stretched tuning see
page 146).
Stretch=On: Applies the Stretched Tuning to all instrument Sounds.
Stretch=Off: Stretched Tuning is turned Off for all the instrument Sounds Off.
Stretch=Piano (only): Applies the Stretched Tuning only to the Piano Sound. The tuning
for any other active sounds layered with a piano sound will be stretched to match the
piano. If no piano sound is active the tuning for any active sounds will not be stretched.
