• User Key Tuning

In addition to standard twelve tone equal temperament, Vintage Keys
contains four additional preset tuning tables (Just C, Vallotti, 19 tone,
and Gamelan) and one user definable tuning. User Key Tuning allows
you to alter the parameters of the user definable tuning stored in
memory. The initial frequency of every key can be individually tuned,
facilitating the creation of microtonal scales. Using the cursor key and
the data entry control, select the key name, the MIDI key number and
the fine tuning. The key name is variable from C-2 to G8. MIDI key
number is variable from 0 to 127. The fine tuning is variable from 00
to 63 in increments of 1/64 of a semitone (approx. 1.56 cents). For
each preset, the specific tuning table is selected in the Edit menu.

that it may be easily read from either above or below. The angle is
adjustable from +7 to -8. Positive values will make the display easier to
read when viewed from above. Negative values make the display easier
to read from below.
