Setting an Oriental Scale
The Scale Setting feature lets you easily lower the pitches of specific notes by 50 cents to create your own oriental
scales. Up to six scale settings can be stored for instant recall (Scale Memory), whenever you need them.
n For details on scale tuning, see page 99.
While holding the [MEMORY] button, press one of the SCALE MEMORY buttons. You can recall the memo-
rized setting by pressing the appropriate button at any time.
• To maintain the memorized scale settings even after the power is turned off, make sure to save the settings as a file (page 101).
• In the SCALE TUNE display, you can select a desired scale template including oriental scales and create your own scales by fine
tuning the scale notes (page 99).
