Using Oriental Scales – Scale Setting/Scale
Tuning/Scale Memory
The Oriental Scales feature lets you simply and easily raise or lower the pitches of specific notes and create your own
scales. You can change the scale settings at any time — even when you are playing. Up to six scale settings can be
stored for instant recall, whenever you need them.
The [SCALE SETTING] buttons simulate an one-octave keyboard (C through B).
You can easily change the scale setting at any time by pressing one of the [SCALE
SETTING] buttons, located at the left side of the panel.
Pressing each button turns the Scale Setting feature for the specific note on and off.
The Scale Setting feature affects all the notes having the same note name in all
octaves. When set to on (the selected button itself is lit), you can play the keyboard
in the selected oriental scale.
The scale setting for each note is -50 cents. You can also adjust the scale tuning in
1-cent units in the SCALE TUNE display.
You can select a desired scale template including oriental scales and create your own scales by fine tuning the scale
notes.
Press the [SCALE TUNING] button located at the right side of display to call up the SCALE TUNE display.
