Transposing the Keyboard
Transpose lets you raise and lower the overall key of the key-
board in semitone units. If you want to play an accompani-
ment for a vocalist who sings in a key that’s different from
the keyboard, for example, simply use transpose to change
the key of the keyboard.
To transpose the keyboard
1. Press the TRANSPOSE/TUNE/MIDI button un-
til the transpose screen appears on the display.
2. Use [+] and [–] to change the transpose setting
of the keyboard.
Example: To transpose the keyboard five semitones up-
wards.

seconds without doing anything, the screen is automatically
cleared.

pose setting to its standard default of “0”.
