Werckmeister
Kirnberger
The Werckmeister and Kirnberger tuning systems improve the
Meantone and Pythagorean tuning systems by combining them
in different ways. Both are uniquely characterized by the way in
which modulation can change the nuances of musical composi-
tions. Often used in the eras of Bach and Beethoven, they are
still employed today to reproduce the music of those periods on
the harpsichord.
F2.1 Tuning system
•Available settings: 1 ...Equal temperament
2 ...Pure Major
3 ...Pure Minor
4 ...Pythagorean
5 ...Meantone
6 ...Werckmeister
7 ...Kirnberger
•Default setting: 1 ...(Equal temperament)
F2.2 Base note
If you select a tuning system other than equal temperament,
you will also need to specify the note on which it is based.
(You can specify a base note for equal temperament, but
this setting will have no effect. It is only relevant to other
tuning systems.)
•Available settings: C, C#, D, Eb, E, F, F#, G, Ab, A, Bb, and B
•Default setting: C
Examples of base notes as shown on display
The following parameters can be used to adjust the volume
balance between the two selected Voices and make various
other settings for Dual mode in order to best suit the piece
you intend to play. Settings can be made for each combina-
tion of Voices as described below.
1
Activate Dual mode, select the Voices you wish to
use, and then use the [FUNCTION] button to select
the Function parameter(s) you wish to set.
2
Change the setting(s) using the [-/NO] and [+/YES]
buttons.
Shortcut:
Yo u can jump directly to Function parameter F3.1 by pressing
the [FUNCTION] button with the Voice buttons for the two Dual-
mode Voices held down.
F3.1 Dual balance
This parameter can be used to optimize the volume balance
between the layered Voices. For example, you could set it
such that one Voice serves as the main sound and the other
provides a subtle accent or a textured after-sound.
•Available settings: 0 to 20 (The greater the value, the louder the
volume of Voice 1; 10 represents an equal balance.)
•Default setting: Each combination of Voices has its own default.
F3.2 Dual detune
Use this parameter to slightly detune the two Voices relative
to one another in order to thicken their combined sound.
•Available settings: -20 to 0 to 20 (The more positive the value, the
higher the pitch of Voice 1 and the lower the pitch of Voice
2. The more negative the value, the higher the pitch of
Voice 2 and the lower the pitch of Voice 1.)
•Default setting: Each combination of Voices has its own default.
F3.3 Voice 1 octave shift
F3.4 Voice 2 octave shift
These parameters are used to raise or lower the pitch of
each of Voice 1 and Voice 2 in units of one octave. In cer-
tain cases, this can enhance the combined sound of the
Voices.
•Available settings: -1, 0, and 1
•Default setting: Each combination of Voices has its own default.
F3.5 Voice 1 effect depth
F3.6 Voice 2 effect depth
Use these parameters to set the depth of the effect for each
of Voice 1 and Voice 2.
•Available settings: 0 to 20
•Default setting: Each combination of Voices has its own default.
F3.7 Reset
By pressing the [+/YES] button with this Function parame-
ter shown, you can reset all of the Dual mode settings to the
defaults for the corresponding Voice combinations.

• The actual amount of detuning is greater for lower notes than higher notes—for
example, ±60 cents for A-1 corresponds to ±5 cents for C7. (100 cents equal one
semitone.)
