Source Key

Playback Pitch

(in Semitones)

Playback Pitch

(in Cents)

For every source key on the lower left, you can see and edit the pitch of that key.

The source key can be thought of as the physical location of the key on the keyboard. The

playback pitch can be the same as the source key — as shown in the display — or it can be any

pitch from A0 to C8. The range of the fine tuning is 00 to 99 cents. This enables you to create

micro-tunings and other alternate tunings. First, let’s get a feel for the relationship between the

source key and the playback pitch.

• Make sure the Source Key is underlined (by pressing the soft button beneath it).

• Play C4 (middle C) on the keyboard, or use the data entry controls to select C4 as the source

key.

• Underline the playback pitch, in this case, C4.

• Use the Up Arrow button and change C4 (playback pitch) to C4+.

• Underline

CENTS. Use the data entry controls to change the value to

CENTS. The

display reads:

C4 now plays back at C4+ and 50 Cents, one and one half semitones higher than normal. Try

selecting other source keys, and then changing their playback pitches to any values you like. This

is how we edit the custom pitch-table.

• Press *EXIT* to return to the Select Voice page.

Removing a Custom Pitch-Table

If a program contains a custom pitch-table and you wish to remove it (thus restoring voices 5 and

6) you can do so from the Program Control page:

To remove a custom pitch-table:

• Press Program Control.

• Underline OPTIONS=

PITCHTBL

• Press the Down Arrow button.

• The TS-10 will ask ERASE CURRENT PITCH-TABLE?

• Press *YES*. You are returned to the Select Voice page, the custom pitch-table is gone, and

voices 5 and 6 are reset to the default voice.
