About stretched tuning
In order to produce the most natural resonance, PIANO1
and PIANO2 sounds use a "stretched tuning" that makes
the notes of the lower range slightly flatter than equal tem-
perament, and the upper range slightly sharper. This is
how an acoustic piano is normally tuned by professional
tuners.

Temperament
Equal temperament (default setting):
Spacing all semitones at equal pitch intervals, this
temperament is the most widely used.
Pure temperament [major]: Major chords in the
key (C) are perfectly tuned.
Pure temperament [minor]: Minor chords in the
key (C) are perfectly tuned.
Arabic: This scale includes the quarter-tone inter-
vals used in Arabic music.
Pythagorean: This ancient Greek scale is espe-
cially effective for playing melodies. It consists of
perfect fifths; however, other intervals – the major
third in particular – is out of tune.
Werckmeister: The Werckmeister III scale was
created in the later Baroque period to allow rela-
tively free transposition.
Kirnberger: The Kirnberger III scale is used
mainly for tuning harpsichords.
Slendro scale: This is an Indonesian gamelan
scale with five notes per octave.
Pelog scale: This is an Indonesian gamelan scale
with seven notes per octave.
