Making Various Settings
 
Setting the Tonic
 
When playing with tuning other than equal temperament, you 
need to specify the tonic note for tuning the song to be 
performed (that is, the note that corresponds to C for a major key 
or to A for a minor key).
If you choose an equal temperament, there’s no need to select a 
tonic note.
 
You can save this setting in the RG-1F/RG-3F’s memory

7.
 
Press the [+] or [–] button to select the tonic.
 
When performing in ensemble with other instruments, 
be aware that depending on the key, there may be 
some shifting of the pitch.
Tune the RG-1F/RG-3F to the fundamental pitch of the 
other instruments.

Press the [Piano Designer] button several times to make 
the indicator go dark.
 
A piano is generally tuned so that its lower notes are slightly 
flatter than equal temperament and its higher notes are slightly 
sharper. This method of tuning is distinctive of a piano, and is 
called “stretch tuning.”
The difference between the equal tempered pitches and the 
actual pitches is called the “tuning curve”; changing the tuning 
curve will have subtle effects on the way in which chords 
resonate.

Pythagor 
(Pythagorean)
 
This tuning, devised by the 
philosopher Pythagoras, eliminates 
dissonance in fourths and fifths.
Dissonance is produced by third-
interval chords, but melodies are 
euphonious.
 
Werckmst 
(Werckmeister)
 
This temperament combines the 
Meantone and Pythagorean tunings. 
Performances are possible in all keys 
(first technique, III).
