Explanation
Master Tuning
Matching the Pitch with Other Instruments (Master Tuning)
When playing ensemble with other instruments and in other such instances, you can match the standard pitch to another instrument.
The standard pitch generally refers to the pitch of the note that’s played when you nger the middle A (A4) key. For a cleaner ensemble sound while
performing with one or more other instruments, ensure that each instrument’s standard pitch is in tune with that of the other instruments. This
tuning of all the instruments to a standard pitch is called “master tuning.”

Temperament
Changing the Tuning Method (Temperament)
You can play classical styles such as Baroque using historic temperaments (tuning methods).
Most modern songs are composed for and played in equal temperament, the most common tuning in use today. But at one time, there were a wide
variety of other tuning systems in existence.
By playing in the temperament that was in use when a composition was created, you can experience the sonorities of chords originally intended for
that song.
Equal
This temperament divides the octave into twelve equal steps. It is the temperament that is most commonly used on today’s
pianos. Every interval has the same slight amount of dissonance.
Just Major
In these temperaments, the primary triads are perfectly consonant. It is unsuited to playing melodies and cannot be transposed,
but is capable of beautiful sonorities.
The Just tunings dier from major and minor keys.
Just Minor
Pythagorean
This tuning, devised by the philosopher Pythagoras, eliminates dissonance in fourths and fths.
Although triadic chords are slightly dissonant, this tuning is suitable for songs that have a simple melody.
Kirnberger I
As in the Just temperaments, the primary triads are co
nsonant in
this tuning. Beautiful sonorities are obtained when playing
songs that are written in keys appropriate for this tuning.
Kirnberger II This is a revision of Kirnberger I that reduces the limitations on the usable keys.
Kirnberger III
This is an improvement of the Meantone and Just tunings that provides a high degree of freedom of modulation.
Performances are possible in all keys. Since the resonance diers depending on the key, chords played in this temperament
resonate in diverse ways when compared to equal temperament.
Meantone
This temperament slightly narrows the fth relative to Just temperaments. While the Just temperaments contains two
types of whole tone (major whole tone and minor whole tone), meantone temperament uses only one type of whole tone
(mean whole tone). Transposition within a limited range of keys is possible.
Werckmeister
This temperament consists of eight perfect fths and four narrowed fths. Performance in all keys is possible. Since dierent
keys produce dierent sonorities, chords will resonate in diverse ways when compared to equal temperament (Werckmeister
I (III)).
Arabic This tuning is suitable for the music of Arabia.
Temperament Key
Specifying the Tonic Note (Temperament Key)
When playing with tuning other than equal temperament, you need to specify the temperament key for tuning the song to be performed.
If you choose an equal temperament, there’s no need to select a temperament key.
