Parameter Value Explanation
Type
EQUAL
(equal temperament)
This temperament divides the octave
into twelve equal steps. It is the
temperament that is most commonly
used on today’s pianos. Every interval
has the same slight amount of
dissonance.
JUST MAJOR
In these temperaments, the primary
triads are perfectly consonant.
They are unsuited to playing melodies
and cannot be transposed, but can
produce beautiful sonorities.
The Just tunings differ from major and
minor keys.
JUST MINOR
PYTHAGOREAN
This tuning, devised by the philosopher
Pythagoras, eliminates dissonance in
fourths and fifths. Although triadic
chords are slightly dissonant, this
tuning is suitable for songs that have a
simple melody.
KIRNBERGER I
As with the just temperaments, the
primary triads are consonant in
this tuning. Beautiful sonorities are
obtained when playing songs that are
written in keys appropriate for this
tuning (Kirnberger I).
KIRNBERGER II
This is a revision of Kirnberger I that
reduces the limitations on the usable
keys (Kirnberger II).
KIRNBERGER III
This is an improvement of the
Meantone and Just tunings that
provides a high degree of freedom
of modulation. Performances are
possible in all keys. Since the resonance
differs depending on the key, chords
played in this temperament (Kirnberger
III)
resonate in diverse ways when
compared to equal temperament.
MEANTONE
This temperament slightly narrows the
fifth relative to Just temperaments.
While the just temperaments contain
two types of whole tones (major and
minor)
, meantone temperament uses
only one type of whole tone (mean
whole tone)
. Transposition within a
limited range of keys is possible.
WERCKMEISTER
This temperament consists of eight
perfect fifths and four narrowed fifths.
Performances are possible in all keys.
Since the resonance differs depending
on the key, chords played in this
temperament resonate in diverse ways
when compared to equal temperament
(Werckmeister I (III)).
ARABIC
This tuning is suitable for the music of
Arabia.
Key C–B
When playing with tunings other
than equal temperament, you need to
specify the temperament key 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
temperament key.
