Specifying How Patches Will Be Switched; (Patch Remain); Specifying The Number Of Notes For Each Part; (Voice Reserve) - Roland JX-305 Owner's Manual

Scale Tune (Scale Tune)
Adjusts the pitch of each note. The pitch is specified in
1-cent units relative to the equal tempered pitch.
Range: -64–+63
Press the appropriate key to select the note that you
wish to adjust.
One cent is 1/100th of a semitone.
About various temperaments
Equal temperament
This temperament divides the octave into 12 equal parts,
and is the temperament that is most widely used today,
particularly for Western music. When the Scale Tune
Switch is OFF, the JX-305 will use equal temperament.
Just intonation (Tonic of C)
Compared to equal temperament, the principle triads
will harmonize more perfectly. However this effect is
obtained only in a single key, and if you modulate to a
different key, the chords will be discordant.
Arabian-style temperament
This is an Arabian-style temperament. On the JX-305,
you can enjoy Arabian-style temperament in the three
keys of G, C and F.

Voice Reserve settings can be made up to a total of 64
notes for all parts.
