Transposition and Tuning
Intonation Description
1. Equal
2. Classic Just
3. Just b7th
4. Pythagorean
5. Mean Tone
6. Werkmeister
No detuning of any interval.
Tunings are defined based on the ratios of the frequencies in the Major triad
(For example, C:E:G). The original tuning of Classical European music.
Similar to Classic Just, but with the Dominatant 7th flatted an additional 15
cents.
This scale was designed by Pythagoras, a Greek Mathematician. It’s based on
the interval of a perfect 5th. The 3rd sounds quite out of tune, but the 4th and
5th are perfectly tuned.
An improved version of the Pythagorean scale to make the 3rd in tune.
Named for its inventor, Andreas Werkmeister. It’s fairly close to equal
temperament, and was developed to enable transposition with less dissonance.
In addition to shifting pitches as a whole, the Mark-Pro TWOi also lets you
adjust the intervals between keys to detune and play exotic scales or
intonations.
The Mark-Pro TWOi is set to equal temperatment by default, but in addition
five more intonations are available.
Press the Global button and then press the Intonation button.
You will see In1 on the display standing for Intonation 1. Press +/Yes or
-/No to change it up to In6.
