   [2]| Mezzo Piano
   [3]| Standard
   [4]| Mezzo Forte
   [5]| Forte
2.  Press and hold [SHIFT] and press the piano key [D4] to deactivate the touch velocity.

7.6 Transposing

With this function you can adjust the pitch of the keyboard in semitone steps (12 at max.) up or down.
Hold down [SHIFT] and press the piano keys [F#6] … [F7] to adjust the pitch of the keyboard up or down in 12 semitones.
7.7 Tuning

Hold down [SHIFT] and press one of the piano keys [F4], [G4] or [A4] to set the desired temperature. By default, the temperament is set to ‘EQUAL’ .

The equal tempered tuning divides the octave into 12 equal semitone steps. This tuning has become standard over time because playing all keys is equally possible.
[G4]| JUST MAJOR
A tuning process in which the intervals are tuned without beat. This creates chords with great sonority. For physical reasons, this only works for the major key specified here.
Related chords have low beats, distant chords (such as F sharp major in a pure C tuning) usually sound very out of tune.
[A4]| JUST MINOR
A tuning process in which the intervals are tuned without beat. This creates chords with great sonority. For physical reasons, this only works for the minor key specified here. Related chords have low beats, distant chords(such as F sharp minor in a pure C tuning) usually sound very out of tune.

Troubleshooting

You hear a ‘pop’ sound from the speakers when switching the digital piano on and off.| This is normal. No need to worry.
Malfunction occurs when using a mobile phone.| Make sure that the volume control is set appropriately.
Check if headphones are plugged into headphone output 1 or 2. Connecting headphones will mute the speakers of the digital piano.
No sound can be heard when playing the piano.| Using a mobile phone near the digital piano can cause interference. To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone or use it only at a safe distance.
Some notes on the keyboard sound wrong.| Reset the tuning to the default setting and restart the device.
The digital piano is not detected when connected to a computer.| Check the USB cable for correct connection.
Connect the USB cable to another USB port on the computer.

Plug and connection assignment

Introduction
This chapter will help you select the right cables and plugs to connect your valuable equipment in such a way that a perfect sound experience is ensured.
Please note these advices, because especially in ‘Sound & Light’ caution is indicated:
Even if a plug fits into the socket, an incorrect connection may result in a destroyed power amp, a short circuit or ‘just’ in poor transmission quality!

Unbalanced transmission
Unbalanced transmission is mainly used in semi-professional environment and in hifi use. Instrument cables with two conductors (one core plus shielding) are typical representatives of the unbalanced transmission. One conductor is ground and shielding while the signal is transmitted through the core.
Unbalanced transmission is susceptible to electromagnetic interference, especially at low levels, such as microphone signals and when using long cables.
