Creating Your Own Piano Tone (Piano Designer)
Items Value Explanation
Temperament
You can play classical styles such as Baroque using historic temperaments (tuning methods).
Most modern songs are composed for and played in equal temperament, the most common tuning in use today. But at one
time, there were a wide variety of other tuning systems in existence. By playing in the temperament that was in use when a
composition was created, you can experience the sonorities of chords originally intended for that song.
Equal
(default value)
This temperament divides the octave into twelve equal steps. It is the temperament that is most
commonly used on today’s pianos. Every interval has the same slight amount of dissonance.
Just Major In these temperaments, the primary triads are perfectly consonant. It is unsuited to playing melodies
and cannot be transposed, but is capable of beautiful sonorities. The Just tunings dier from major
and minor keys.
Just Minor
Pythagorean
This tuning, devised by the philosopher Pythagoras, eliminates dissonance in fourths and fths.
Although triadic chords are slightly dissonant, this tuning is suitable for songs that have a simple
melody.
Kirnberger I As in the Just temperaments, the primary triads are consonant in this tuning. Beautiful sonorities are
obtained when playing songs that are written in keys appropriate for this tuning.
Kirnberger II This is a revision of Kirnberger I that reduces the limitations on the usable keys.
Kirnberger III
This is an improvement of the Meantone and Just tunings that provides a high degree of freedom of
modulation. Performances are possible in all keys. Since the resonance diers depending on the key,
chords played in this temperament resonate in diverse ways when compared to equal temperament.
Meantone
This temperament slightly narrows the fth relative to Just temperaments. While the Just
temperaments contains two types of whole tone (major whole tone and minor whole tone),
meantone temperament uses only one type of whole tone (mean whole tone). Transposition within
a limited range of keys is possible.
Werckmeister
This temperament consists of eight perfect fths and four narrowed fths. Performance in all keys is
possible. Since dierent keys produce dierent sonorities, chords will resonate in diverse ways when
compared to equal temperament (Werckmeister I (III)).
Arabic This tuning is suitable for the music of Arabia.
Temperament Key C–B
(default value: C)
When playing with tuning other than equal temperament, you need to specify the temperament key
for tuning the song to be performed (that is, the note that corresponds to C for a major key or to A
for a minor key). If you choose an equal temperament, there’s no need to select a temperament key.
Hammer Response O, 1–10
(default value: 1)
Adjusts the time from when you play the key until the piano sound is heard. Higher values produce
a greater delay.
