The Roland ASC-10 Concept
The vast majority of Western music forms –and instruments- are based on the twelve tone tuning system often referred to as Equal Temperament. In this tuning system, one octave is divided into twelve tones with adjacent tones being a semi-tone apart in pitch. This ‘equal spacing’ of tones is the basis for the name Equal Temperament (equal tuning).
Although this tuning system is used extensively, there are many forms of music in the world which use different tunings. Some types of music use semi-tones and quarter-tones within the same scale (Arabic music, for example). Still other types of music use micro-tones; intervals smaller than a quarter-tone.
By allowing you to raise or lower the pitch of individual notes within the equally tempered scale, the Roland ASC-10 Scale Converter can create whatever tuning system your music requires.
You should know that the Roland ASC-10 Scale Converter use only the BOSS PSA AC adapter to operate. In the manual there are also “MIDI Implementation Chart” chapter is very useful for users.
