16 Pitch Control Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Clavinova over a ±50-cent range (approximate) in approximately 1.2-cent or 1-hertz 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. q Tuning Up ... A-1 B-1 C3 B3 ZTo tune up (raise pitch), hold the A-1 and B-1 keys simultaneously (A-1 and B- 1 are the two lowest white keys on the keyboard) and press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range is pressed the pitch is raised by approxi- mately 1.2 cents, up to a maximum of about 50 cents above standard pitch. To raise the pitch in 1-hertz increments press the TEMPO [v] button instead of the C3-B3 keys. The TEMPO [w] button can also be used to tune down while TEMPO the A-1 and B-1 keys are held. - / NO + / YES XRelease the A-1 and B-1 keys. q Tuning Down ...
