System Scale Tune
 
Parameter
Value Description
Scale Tune Switch
 
OFF, ON
Turn this on when you wish to use a tuning scale other than equal temperament.
One set of Scale Tune settings can be created in Patch mode. In Performance 
mode, this can be set for each part of the performance (p. 93).
The Fantom-XR allows you to play the keyboard using temperaments other 
than equal temperament. The pitch is specified in one-cent units relative to 
the equal tempered pitch.
 
One-cent is 1/100th of a semitone.
• The selected scale applies to MIDI messages received from an external 
MIDI device.

 (p. 155).
Equal Temperament
This tuning divides the octave into 12 equal parts, and is the most widely 
used method of temperament used in Western music. The Fantom-XR 
employs equal temperament when the Scale Tune Switch is set to “OFF.”
Just Temperament (Tonic of C)
Compared with equal temperament, the principle triads sound 
pure in this tuning. However, this effect is achieved only in one 
key, and the triads will become ambiguous if you transpose.
Arabian Scale
In this scale, E and B are a quarter note lower and C#, F# and G# 
are a quarter-note higher compared to equal temperament. The 
intervals between G and B, C and E, F and G#, Bb and C#, and Eb 
and F# have a natural third—the interval between a major third 
and a minor third. On the Fantom-XR, you can use Arabian 
temperament in the three keys of G, C and F.
