Transposing to a Different Key (Transpose Buttons)

You can transpose the key of a performance without having to shift the position of your fingers on the keyboard. This feature is called “Key Transpose.”

For example: you may play in the familiar C major scale while your music will sound in any key of your choice.

1. Press the Transpose [-] and [+] buttons.

Each press of the Transpose [-] or [+] button transposes the key a semitone.

The transpose value is displayed in the screen.

Acceptable values range from A to G (in semitone steps).

fig.06-03

If the pitch is transposed (something other than C), the indicator of one of the Transpose buttons, either [-] [+], will be lit. If the pitch is not transposed (i.e., the key is C), the indicator of both the Transpose [-] and [+] buttons will be extinguished.

By pressing the Transpose [-] [+] buttons simultaneously, you can restore the default setting C.

You can change the timing at which the transposition settings saved in a Registration will be recalled. For details refer to “Registration Transpose Update (Transpose Setting Recall Timing)” (p. 92).
