Changing the Sound’s Pitch in Real
Time (Pitch Bend Lever)
The “height” of a sound is called “pitch.”
While playing the keyboard, move the lever to the left to lower the pitch, or
to the right to raise the pitch.
When shipped from the factory, this is set so that the pitch is changed up or
down one whole step.
