Transposing without Changing Your Fingering— Key Transpose

You can play in a different key-without changing the keys you are playing. This function is called “Key Transpose.” When you are accompanying a singer, you can use Key Transpose to match the vocal pitch of the singer, allowing you to transpose easily while using the same printed music (keyboard fingering).

Key transpositions remain in effect until the keyboard’s power is turned off.

*The transposition setting is effective only on sounds performed on the DP-1000’s keyboard. This setting is not effective on tones from external MIDI messages played on the DP-1000.

<Ex.> Using the C Major Keys to Play a Song in E Major

1.While holding down the [Key Touch/Demo Song] button, press the tonic (root) of the

key to which you want to transpose.

Use the C2–B2 notes to select the tonic.

Refer to “Functions Assigned to the Keyboard” (p. 24).

Here, press the E2 key.
