Press the [+/YES] button while holding down the [BGM] and [PLAY/STOP] buttons.
The current pitch setting appears on the display while the key combination is held.

To tune down (in about 0.2Hz steps)

To initialize standard pitch

and [PLAY/STOP] buttons. The current pitch setting appears on the display while the
key combination is held.

ferent playing styles and preferences.
