USING VIBRATO
The Concertmate-580’s vibrato feature
lets you give your music a “wavering”
effect, slightly varying the pitch of
notes as you press the keys. To turn
on the vibrato feature, simply press VI-
BRATO before or during play.
To turn off vibrato, press VIBRATO
again.
Note: Turning on SUSTAIN along with
VIBRATO lets you produce a more ex-
aggerated vibrato sound.
CHANGING KEYS
The Concertmate-580 automatically
selects the tone of middle C each time
you turn it on.
For added flexibility as you make mu-
sic, the Concertmate-580 lets you
change (transpose) the musical key it
plays in.
To quickly raise the key one octave,
press ONE OCTAVE. The red indicator
beneath TRANSPOSER turns on. Press
ONE OCTAVE again to return to middle
C. The indicator turns off.
To raise or lower the key 1/2-tone,
press TRANSPOSER s or t. The red in-
dicator beneath TRANSPOSER turns
on.
Note: You can change the Concert-
mate-580’s key to within ±12 1/2-tones
(6 whole tones) of middle C with
TRANSPOSER.
To reset the keyboard to its default key
(middle C), press TRANSPOSER s and
t at the same time so the red indicator
beneath TRANSPOSER turns off.
