Roland E-66 - Creating Different Tunings: Keyboard Scale

Each time a TUNE button is
pressed, the pitch will rise/fall
by 1 'cent' (1/100th of a semi-
tone). If you hold either button,
the pitch will rise/fall continu-
ously (until it reaches its limit.)
Every time a TUNE button [28]
is pressed, the display will
indicate a value from -99 to 99
cents ; this is the deviation from
standard pitch.
The adjustable pitch range of
the E-66 is between 415.5 and
465.9 Hz. The instrument's
standard pitch (A2440.0 Hz)
can be instantly set by pressing
both TUNE buttons [28] simul-
taneously.
When the number “0” appears
in the display, the E-66 is set to
standard pitch.

Tunings:

This function allows you to
create tunings other than equal
temperament (the 12- tone
‘Western’ scale).
(This will apply to the UPPER
Tone.)
This function is extremely
useful to perform songs which
require a non-standard tuning.
1) To lower one or more notes
by a quarter tone (50 cents) in
pitch:
a) Press and hold the KBD
VELOCITY/ SCALE button [44].
