In terms of “Hertz”, the overall tuning range is from 427.0 Hz to 453.0 Hz.
The current tuning setting is shown on the LED display while the tuning is
being adjusted. Tenths of a Hertz are indicated on the LED display by the
appearance and position of one or two dots, as in the following example:
• An alternative tuning method is available in the Function mode — page 31.
Tuning makes it possible to adjust the pitch of the P-120/P-120S over a 427.0
Hz … 453.0 Hz (corresponding to the A3 note’s Hz) range in approximately 0.2
Hertz intervals. Pitch control is useful for tuning the P-120/P-120S to match other
instruments or recorded music.
