NOTES

You can adjust touch response sensitivity using the procedure under “TOUCH CURVE” on page E-39.

Touch response not only affects the keyboard’s internal sound source, it also is output as MIDI data.

Memory playback, accompaniment, and external MIDI note data does not affect the touch response setting.

Transposing the Keyboard

Transpose lets you raise and lower the overall key of the keyboard in semitone units. If you want to play an accompaniment for a vocalist who sings in a key that’s different from the keyboard, for example, simply use transpose to change the key of the keyboard.

To transpose the keyboard

1. Press the TRANSPOSE/TUNE/MIDI button until the transpose screen appears on the display.

2. Use the [+], [–], and the number buttons to change the transpose setting of the keyboard.

Example: To transpose the keyboard five semitones upwards.

NOTES

The keyboard can be transposed within a range of –12 (one octave downwards) to +12 (one octave upwards).

The default transpose setting is “00” when keyboard power is turned on.

If you leave the transpose screen on the display for about five seconds without doing anything, the screen is automatically cleared.

The transpose setting also affects playback from memory and Auto Ac- companiment.

TRANSPOSE/TUNE/MIDI Button

Each press of the TRANSPOSE/TUNE/MIDI button cycles through a total of 12 setting screens: the transpose screen, the tuning screen, and 10 MIDI setting screens (page E-36). If you accidentally pass the screen you want to use, keep pressing the TRANSPOSE/TUNE/MIDI button until the screen appears again.
