Music Notation for Non-concert-key
Instruments
For historical reasons, certain musical instruments are traditionally notated in a
transposed key rather than the actual key. For example, a normal (Bb) trumpet

Eb alto sax part is written a major sixth higher. Musicians have traditionally
learned to read and refer to the notes they play using the proper transposition
interval for their instrument.
SONAR supports these non-concert instrumental keys through use of the Key+
control in the Track view. Simply enter or record the notes into the instrument's
track transposed as the musician would expect them, and then set the proper
transposition interval in the Key+ control to make it play in the correct key. For
