More About the Transpose Keyboard Function
Only one Transpose Keyboard LED can be on at one time.
The currently lit Transpose Keyboard LED indicates the transposition amount.
When all Transpose Keyboard LEDs are off, transposition is disabled.
After power-on, the transposition amount defaults to C (no transposition).
If a C is played while the {TRANSPOSE_KEYBOARD} button is held down, the currently lit
LED will turn off and the transposition amount will be set to C.
While the {TRANSPOSE_KEYBOARD} button is still held down, you may continue to play
notes to set the transposition to other values. Releasing the {TRANSPOSE_KEYBOARD}
button will leave any currently lit LED on.
Notes played while the {TRANSPOSE_KEYBOARD} button is held down will be heard at
their untransposed pitch (to help you find the pitch you want to transpose to).
Pressing and holding the {TRANSPOSE_KEYBOARD} button, and pressing the {VALUE} or
{CURSOR} buttons, will increment or decrement the transposition amount from the
previously set amount. The value will wrap; i.e. if the transposition is set to F, pressing the
{TRANSPOSE_KEYBOARD} button and then the {[} button will change the transposition to
the lower F#.
If the LEDs are off, and no transposition amount has previously been set (such as after power
on), pressing and releasing the {TRANSPOSE_KEYBOARD} button will shut off all playing
voices. The LEDs will remain off.
Whenever the {TRANSPOSE_KEYBOARD} button is released, all notes currently held on the
KT keyboard, or sustained by the local sustain or sostenuto pedal, will be released.
When one of the Transposition LEDs is on:
Playing on the KT keyboard — into the local sounds, into the sequencer, and out to the MIDI
Out jack
will
be transposed by the amount set.
Notes output from sequencer playback — using local sounds or to the MIDI Out jack will
not
be transposed.
Voice key zones, Drum Sound key ranges and Track key ranges for playing on the KT
keyboard
will
be transposed by the amount set.
Notes received from incoming MIDI will
not
be transposed.
