Transpose
Insomecases,asongmaybewrieninadicultkey(e.g.,
many black keys), or you may wish to shift the pitch to
match anotherinstrumentor vocalist.Insuch cases,you
cantranspose(shiftthepitch)sothatyoucanuseaneasier
ngering,orusethesamefamiliarngeringtoplayatadif-
ferentpitch.ThisiscalledtheTransposefunction.
For example if you transpose upward by one semitone,
playingthenotesshownatthelowerleftwillproducethe
pitchesshownattheright.
While holding down the TRANSPOSE buon, press the
keyboard key (F#6–F7) for the desired transposition.
IfakeyboardkeyotherthanC7ispressed,theTRANSPOSE
buonlightsuptoindicatethatthekeyboardistransposed.
Thepitchoftheentirekeyboardis transposed according
tothepitchofthepressedkeyboardkeyinrelationtoC7.
To return to the original pitches, hold down the TRANS-
POSE buon and press the C7 key.
