Sequencer
To transpose a sequence:
1. Press play. The sequence begins playback.
2. Press and hold
record and press a key on the keyboard. “Middle C”
is the reference point. Playing a note above middle C transposes the
sequence higher by that interval. Playing a note below middle C trans-
poses the sequence lower by that interval.
