Pitch Control
Pitch control makes it possible to tune the YDP-88II over a ±50-cent range
(approximate) in approximately 1.6-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 YDP-
88II to match other instruments or recorded music.
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 1.6 cents, up to a
maximum of 50 cents above standard pitch.

Tuning Down .......................................................................................................
Z To tune down (lower pitch), hold the A-1 and A#-1 keys simulta-
neously.

pressed the pitch is decreased by approximately 1.6 cents, up to a
maximum of 50 cents below standard pitch.

To Restore Standard Pitch*.................................................................
Z To restore standard pitch (A3 = 440 Hz), hold the A-1, A#-1 and
B-1 keys simultaneously.
