Most tones on this keyboard have been  
recorded and processed using a technique  
called digital sampling. To ensure a high  
level of tonal quality, samples are taken in  
the low, mid, and high ranges and are then  
combined to sound amazingly close to the  
originals. You might notice very slight  
differences in volume or sound quality for  
some tones when you play them at different  
positions on the keyboard. This is an  
unavoidable result of multiple sampling and  
is not a malfunction.

The keyboard’s lesson mode helps you  
follow along with any of the prerecorded  
tunes, even if you have no experience  
playing a keyboard. The keyboard lets you  
play along with one finger at first, then use  
normal fingering at a slow tempo, then finally  
you play (or do not play). Try not to  
delay the accompaniment – you can still  
slow down the tempo using TEMPO if  
the normal speed is still too fast for you.

measurement that represents the  
acoustical interval between the tones of any  
two keys on the keyboard. For example, the  
difference between C and C or B and B  
is one semitone. You can transpose the key  
down 6 semitones (to an F ) and up 5  
semitones (to an F) — a full octave.

Each preset tone plays within a specified  
range. If a key change causes a note to  
exceed its range, the same note sounds in  
the nearest octave.  
As you raise the key, 1 is C , 2 is D,  
and so on. As you lower the key, –1 is  
B, –2 is B , –3 is A, and so on.  
When you select preset tones 75 through 79

Changing the key does not affect the

Tuning the Keyboard  
You cannot tune the keyboard while a  
prerecorded tune is displayed or playing.  
The number on the display is the number of  
cents to which the keyboard is currently  
tuned, compared to its default pitch. A cent  
is the measurement representing the  
acoustical interval between two tones. 1200  
cents equal 1 octave. You can tune the  
keyboard to within 50 cents (101 levels) of  
its default pitch.  
You can use the number keypad to raise  
the pitch by entering the cent change value.  
The keyboard automatically resets the  
tuning pitch to the default value of 00  
(cents) each time you turn off the keyboard  
or play the prerecorded tunes (by pressing  
DEMO or SONG).
