It produces chords that are more beautiful than those with the equal temperament. 4»Werckmeister III temperament, Kirnberger III temperament For key signatures with accidentals, this temperament produces the beautiful chords of the mean tone, but, as the accidentals increase, the tension increases, and the temperament produces the beautiful melodies of the Pythagorean temperament. It is used primarily for classical music written to take advantage of these characteristics. - 26 - 5 Setting the metronome volume The metronome volume is adjusted with the master volume. However the degree of volume change can be set. C Step 1 Make sure that the piano is in the programming mode. ( Step 2 ) press the METRONOME button. c—1 era c=d a □ □□□□□□□ □□ LàwSiAèS The metronome will sound in four-four time. The PIANO 1 LED will be turned off and in turn, the METRONOME LED will flash. Now you can start setting the metronome volume. In this state, pressing the keyboard keys will not produce sound. C Step 3 set the degree of volume change for the metronome. Use the seven white keys at the left end of the keyboard to set the degree of volume. nun © Volume is set to its lowest with the "1" key and at its highest with the "7" key. The "4" key is the factory setting. C Step 4 ) Leave the programming mode. - 27 - MIDI Interface B What's MIDI?_ Before attempting to set the MIDI function, let's take a brief look at what MIDI is. The letters MIDI stand for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, an international standard for connecting synthesizers, drum machines, and other electronic instruments so that they can exchange performance data. Instruments equipped with MIDI have three jacks for exchanging data: IN, OUT, and THRU. Each uses a special cable with a DIN connector for connection. IN : For receiving keyboard, timbre, and other data OUT : For sending keyboard, timbre, and other data THRU : For sending received data to another instrument without processing Electronic musical instruments equipped with MIDI are able to transmit and receive performance data such as for note and timbre. Depending on the connection method, instruments are grouped as those which receive data (producing sound according to data received from the connected instrument), those which send data (to the instruments to which they are connected), and those which both send and receive data. The cable is connected to the MIDI IN jack of the instrument receiving data and to the OUT jack of the sending instrument. The THRU jack is used when the data received is to be sent to another instrument. MIDI uses what are known as "channels" as a means of transmitting data for playing a specified instrument. There are two types of channels, one for receiving and one for sending, and MIDI instruments are normally equipped with both types. Receive channels are used when an instrument receives data from another instrument, and send channels are used for transmission to another instrument. For instance, let's say that three instruments are connected for playing in this way: I OUT IN 1 r THRU ©Transmit ©Receive ©Receive Instrument ©, which is sending, transmits the send channel along with keyboard and other data to instruments (D and (D, which are receiving. This data is sent to instruments (2) and (D, but the data will not be received unless the receive channel for these two instruments matches the send channel used by instrument ©. There are 16 channels each (1 through 16) available for both sending and receiving. - 28 - ? Connections (1) Connection to another MIDI-compatible keyboard (connection with instruments such as the Kawai digital synthesizers KC20/K11 ) CA840/640/440's preset sound ___ Synthesizer’s preset sound When connected as shown in the illustration, data on how the digital piano is played (what keys are struck and how hard) is sent to the synthesizer unchanged. Also, by connecting the synthesizer's OUTPUT jack and the LINE IN jack on the digital piano, the sound from the digital piano can be layered over the sound of the synthesizer. Since timbre can be set separately, you can assemble a wide variety of sound combinations, such as a PIANO tone from the digital piano layered with a STRING tone from the synthesizer for a thick sound.
