Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Clavinova over a ±50-cent range (approximate) in ap-
proximately 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.

● Tuning Up
Z To 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 approximately 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 [s] button instead of the C3-B3 keys. The TEMPO [t]
button can also be used to tune down while the A-1 and B-1 keys are held.
X Release the A-1 and B-1 keys.
Z To tune down (lower pitch), hold the A-1 and A#-1 keys simultane-
ously and press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range
is pressed the pitch is lowered by approximately 1.2 cents, up to a maxi-
mum of about 50 cents below standard pitch. To lower the pitch in 1-hertz
increments press the TEMPO [t] button instead of the C3-B3 keys. The
TEMPO [s] button can also be used to tune up while the A-1 and A#-1
keys are held.
XRelease the A-1 and A#-1 keys.
ZTo restore the default pitch (A3 = 440 Hz), hold the A-1, A#-1, and B-1
keys simultaneously and press any key between C3 and B3, or simultane-
ously press the TEMPO [s] and [t] buttons.
XRelease the A-1, A#-1 and B-1 keys.
NOTE
• Hold either the TEMPO [
s
] or [
t
] button for continuous scrolling in the
specified direction.
• The PITCH CONTROL function has no effect when LOCAL OFF is active
(see “MIDI FUNCTIONS,” page 32).
● The Pitch Display The approximate pitch of A3 is shown on the TEMPO display in Hertz
while the pitch control function is in operation. The total display range is from
approximately 427 hertz (-50 cents) to 453 hertz (+50 cents).
The dots to the right of each figure in the display are used to provide a
general idea of fractional pitches.
442 442.0 .........442.24
4.42 442.25 .......442.49
44.2 442.5 .........442.74
442. 442.75 .......442.99
Example:
Press the C7 key while holding the A-1/B-1, A-1/A#-1, or A-1/A#-1/B-1 key
combination to memorize the current pitch control setting. The memorized
setting will be retained in memory for about one week after the power is
turned off, then the standard pitch will be restored. To keep the memorized
setting for longer periods, turn the power on briefly at least once a week.
If this setting is not memorized as described above, it is retained in memory
only until the Clavinova is turned off.
