7.8 Temperament
The digital piano has a total of three temperament settings that can be set using the
piano keys.
Hold down [SHIFT] and press one of the piano keys [F4], [G4] or [A4] to set the
desired temperature. By default, the temperament is set to ‘EQUAL’ .
Piano key Meaning
[F4] EQUAL
The equal tempered tuning divides the octave
into 12 equal semitone steps. This tuning has
become standard over time because playing all
keys is equally possible.
[G4] JUST MAJOR
A tuning process in which the intervals are
tuned without beat. This creates chords with
great sonority. For physical reasons, this only
works for the major key specied here.
Related chords have low beats, distant chords
(such as F sharp major in a pure C tuning) usu‐
ally sound very out of tune.
[A4] JUST MINOR
A tuning process in which the intervals are
tuned without beat. This creates chords with
great sonority. For physical reasons, this only
works for the minor key specied here.
Related chords have low beats, distant chords
(such as F sharp minor in a pure C tuning) usu‐
ally sound very out of tune.
Many of the functions can be easily controlled from a mobile device using
suitable apps (e.g. PianoToolBox), which can be downloaded from the App
Store® or Google Play.
