Explanation
Changing the Tuning Method
This setting changes the type of stretch tuning, a tuning method that is used specifically for pianos, in which the high notes are tuned
slightly sharper and the low notes are tuned slightly flatter.
Normally, you should use the "1" setting (standard tuning curve).

Changing How the Pedals Work

Here you can assign the functions of the center pedal ( F0g ) and left pedal ( F10 ).
1 " Sostenuto pedal ( F0g ), soft pedal ( F10 )
2 " Same function as the [s (Start/Stop)] button
3 " Intro/Ending function on/off (same function as the [y(Intro/Ending)] button)
4 " Variation on/off (same function as the [x (Variation)] button)
5 " Fill-in
6 " Leading Bass function on/off
Specifying How the Bass Part Behaves
The function that sounds the lowest note of a fingered chord as the bass tone is called "Leading Bass. "
Off "
The bass part of the rhythm plays the root of the chord. For example, if you play the chord E-G-C (C major), the note
C is sounded as the bass.
On "
The bass part plays the lowest note of the chord you play. If you play the chord E-G-C (C major), the note E is
sounded as the bass.
The Leading Bass feature is always on while Split is off.

dropped. To prevent this, you can enable the "Local Off" setting so that
the keyboard and internal sound generator will be disconnected.
