Tuning Up
Z To tune up (raise pitch), hold the A-1 and B-1 keys simultaneously.
X Press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range is
pressed the pitch is increased by approximately 1.2 cents, up to a maxi-
mum of 50 cents above standard pitch.
C Release the A-1 and B-1 keys.
Z To tune down (lower pitch), hold the A-1 and A#-1 keys simultane-
ously.
X Press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range is
pressed the pitch is decreased by approximately 1.2 cents, up to a maxi-
mum of 50 cents below standard pitch.
C Release the A-1 and A#-1 keys.
Z To restore standard pitch (A3 = 440 Hz), hold the A-1, A#-1 and B-1
keys simultaneously.
X Press any key between C3 and B3.
C Release the A-1, A#-1 and B-1 keys.
* Standard pitch (A3 = 440 Hz) is set when the [POWER] switch is ini-
tially turned ON. The power-on pitch setting can be changed, however,
by pressing the C7 key while still holding the A-1/B-1, A-1/A#-1, or A-
1/A#-1/B-1 key combinations after setting the desired pitch.
Settings changed in this way are retained in internal memory for approxi-
mately one week if the power is not turned on during that time. If the
backup period is exceeded, the original factory setting is restored. To
keep the memorized settings for longer periods, turn the power on briefly
at least once a week.
Note: The PITCH CONTROL function has no effect when LOCAL OFF is active
(see MIDI FUNCTIONS, page 18).
Tuning Down
To Restore Standard Pitch*
Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Clavinova over a ±50-cent range in approximately
1.2-cent intervals. A hundred cents equals one semitone, so the tuning range provided allows
fine tuning of overall pitch over a range of approximately a semitone. Pitch control is useful for
tuning the Clavinova to match other instruments or recorded music.
