Creating your own Tuning
In addition to equal temperament, the
pitchblack+ lets you store and use any desired
temperament. You can also specify ethnic
tunings or stretched tuning.
You can create a tuning program in either of
two ways: by specifying the pitch individually
for every one of the eighty-eight notes A0–C8
(All Note), or by specifying the pitch for each
note in an octave that will be applied across the
entire pitch range (Octave Link).
The tuning you create can be saved as one of
five tuning programs.
Tuning programs you create are saved in
internal memory. Even if you remove the
battery or disconnect the AC adapter, the
pitchblack+ will remember the settings
stored in internal memory the next time
you turn the power on.
Specifying the pitch for every note (All Note)
Here’s how to individually specify the pitch for
every one of the eighty-eight notes A0–C8.
1 In Tuning mode, select P1–P5 (PROGRAM
1–PROGRAM 5), and press the STORE
button to store the setting.
☞p.14 “Setting the Tuning Mode”
2 Press the NOTE/CENT button.
You will enter Tuning Program Edit mode.
The display will indicate the note name, the
octave, and the cent value; the note name and
octave will blink.

Note name and octave
If the octave is not shown, the display is
showing the Octave Link edit screen (☞p.17
“Specifying the pitch for each note in the
octave”). If so, hold down the NOTE/CENT
button for approximately one second to
select the All Note edit screen.
