ScaleType EQUAL,
ARABIC
Selects the scale setting.
EQUAL
(Equal temperament): This is the method of tuning that is most widely used in Western music, in which
the octave is divided into twelve equal steps.
ARABIC
(Arabic temperament): Compared to equal temperament, E and B are half a semitone low, and C#, F#,
and Ab are half a semitone high. The intervals G–B, C–E, F–Ab, Bb–C#, and
Eb–F3 are a neutral third (between a major third and minor third).
Scale Mode MAIN,
ALL
Specifies the part(s) to which the Scale setting will apply.
MAIN
: The scale setting applies to Main mode, the Upper Part of Split mode, and the first Tone of Dual mode.
ALL
: The scale setting applies to all parts.
Scale C–B -64–+63 As an alternative to the temperament commonly used in Western music, you can adjust the pitch of each note to
create temperaments used in other musical cultures or historical periods (e.g., Oriental temperaments, or tem-
peraments used in the Baroque era).
You can adjust the pitch of each note in the octave (
C
,
C#
,
D
,
Eb
,
E
,
F
,
F#
,
G
,
Ab
,
A
,
Bb
,
B
). These settings are
applied to every note of the same name (i.e., the
C
of each octave, the
C#
of each octave, etc.) Most often, the pitch
is adjusted one quarter tone upward or downward, so you will select a value of
50
or
-50
.
