Performing

By using the “Transpose” function you can transpose the keyboard or the key in which the
song plays back. This is convenient when you’re singing along with the song, since you
can shift the playback to a key that’s comfortable for the range of your voice. If you’re
accompanying a singer, you can use the Transpose function to shift the pitch to a key that’s
comfortable for the singer while you continue playing in the same familiar key (fingering).
You can also use this function to transpose the pitch of your playing without changing your
fingering on the keyboard. For example, if the song is in a difficult key with numerous
sharps ( ) or flats ( ), you can transpose to a key that’s easier for you to play.

The FP-7 lets you transpose the key (pitch) of the keyboard, of the song, or of the song and the
keyboard together. If you want to transpose only the key of the keyboard or only the key of the
song, you’ll need to specify this ahead of time (p. 124). With the factory settings, the Transpose
function will transpose both the keyboard and the song simultaneously.
