You can select various scales. Equal Temperament is the most common contemporary piano tuning scale. However, his-
tory has known numerous other scales, many of which serve as the basis for certain genres of music. You can experience
the tunings of these genres.
While holding down the [FUNCTION] button, press one of the C5–F#5 keys to
select the scale. Holding down both controls shows the current scale setting.

C5
The pitch range of each octave is divided equally into twelve parts, with
each half-step evenly spaced in pitch. This is the most commonly used
tuning in music today.
These tunings preserve the pure mathematical intervals of each scale,
especially for triad chords (root, third, fifth). You can hear this best in
actual vocal harmonies — such as choirs and a cappella singing.
This scale was devised by the famous Greek philosopher and is cre-
ated from a series of perfect fifths, which are collapsed into a single
octave. The 3rd in this tuning are slightly unstable, but the 4th and 5th
are beautiful and suitable for some leads.
This scale was created as an improvement on the Pythagorean scale,
by making the major third interval more "in tune." It was especially pop-
ular from the 16th century to the 18th century. Handel, among others,
used this scale.
This composite scale combines the Werckmeister and Kirnberger sys-
tems, which were themselves improvements on the mean-tone and
Pythagorean scales. The main feature of this scale is that each key
has its own unique character. The scale was used extensively during
the time of Bach and Beethoven, and even now it is often used when
performing period music on the harpsichord.
