Ë TRANSPOSE (Key Select)
This feature allows you to shift the musical key of the entire instrument. This is
useful if you have a piece of music written in one key but which needs to sound
in another key; for example, a song written and played in C Major, could sound
in G Major. TRANSPOSE will step either up or down six (6) semitones or half-
steps from the center position. The TRANSPOSE feature consists the TRANSPOSE Touch Tab, plus the DOWN and
UP Touch Tabs immediately to the right of the TRANSPOSE Touch Tab. The DOWN Touch Tab allows you to
transpose lower and the UP Touch Tab allows you to transpose higher.
TRY THIS:
1. Make sure the instrument is un-transposed or playing in “concert” pitch (TRANSPOSE Touch Tab LED
not lit).
2. Touch and Hold the TRANSPOSE Touch Tab and look at the Information Center Display to make sure it
shows “+0.”
3. While continuing to hold the TRANSPOSE Touch Tab, touch the UP Touch Tab five times. The
Information Center Display should show the following:
You have now transposed the entire instrument up five half-steps - when you touch a “C” note you will
hear the note “F” above it.
4. Now Touch and Hold the TRANSPOSE Touch Tab and touch the DOWN Touch Tab repeatedly until
the TRANSPOSE Touch Tab LED turns “OFF” and the Information Center Display shows “+0.” The
instrument is now back to concert pitch.
