100 Prerecorded Tunes — let you hear a sample
of what you and your keyboard can do. You can
play the tunes either one at a time or consecutively,
and you can turn off the melody or accompaniment

Most tones on this keyboard have been
recorded and processed using a technique
called digital sampling. To ensure a high
level of tonal quality, samples are taken in
the low, mid, and high ranges and are then
combined to sound amazingly close to the
originals. You might notice very slight
differences in volume or sound quality for
some tones when you play them at different
positions on the keyboard. This is an
unavoidable result of multiple sampling and
is not a malfunction.

keyboard to within 50 cents (101 levels) of
its default pitch.
