Scale Tune
Scale Tune Switch
Turn this on when you wish to use a tuning scale other than equal
temperament.
Value:
OFF, ON
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. 88).
In Patch mode, this is valid only for the keyboard part.
The Fantom-S 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.
Patch Scale Tune for C–B
Make scale tune settings for Patch mode.
Value:
-64– +63
For details on the setting, refer to
“How to Make the System
Function Settings”
(p. 188).
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-S 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-S, you can use Arabian
temperament in the three keys of G, C and F.
