YPP-100
Transposition
Use the [–/NO] or [+/YES] button while holding the [TRANS-
POSE] button to transpose down or up as required. The transposition
range is from “–12” (down one octave) through “0” (normal pitch) to
“12” (up one octave). The amount of transposition appears on the LED
display while the [TRANSPOSE] button is held. The default transpose
setting is “0”.
•The [TRANSPOSE] button indicator remains lit when a transpose setting
other than “0” is selected.
•If the transposed note exceeds the A-1 … C7 range, the note will be
sounded one octave higher or lower.
The YPP-100’s TRANSPOSE function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the
entire keyboard up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of 12 semitones
(i.e. a maximum of one octave up or down). “Transposing” the pitch of the YPP-100
keyboard facilitates playing in difficult key signatures, and you can easily match the
pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instrumentalist.
