Transposing (changing the key)
By changing (transposing) the key in semitones, you can play using fewer black keys, or play along
with other instruments that may be in different keys, while still using the fingering you previously
memorized.
1 While holding down the TRANSPOSE button, press a key from C3 to B3, or from C#4 to C5 on the
keyboard.
This shifts the key within a range of -12 to -1 semitones, or 1 to 12 semitones.
The TRANSPOSE button will light when the keyboard is transposed. The transpose value is shown
in the display while you are holding down the TRANSPOSE button.
2 Press the lighted TRANSPOSE button. The button will go dark, and the transpose feature will be
cancelled.
Note:
You can save the transpose settings as favorites.
Tip:
You can also transpose the key by turning the value dial within a range of -12 to -1 semitones or +1 to +12 semi-
tones while holding down the TRANSPOSE button. The transpose feature is useful when you want to play along
with other instruments or vocalists but don’t want to play in a different key.
Note:
The transpose feature will be cancelled when the power is turned off.
Note:
The split point does not change when transpose is used.

Panel lock
The Grandstage X features a Panel Lock function to prevent the programs on the panel from acciden-
tally being changed by hitting the wrong button or knob while playing.
When this function is on, all buttons and knobs on the panel stop responding, except for the pitch
bend wheel, modulation wheel, VOLUME slider, SW1 and SW2 buttons, and the PANEL LOCK button.
Turning the Panel Lock function ON or OFF (cancel)
1 Hold down the PANEL LOCK button for about two seconds to turn Panel Lock ON.
The button blinks.
2 Press the blinking PANEL LOCK button to turn the panel lock off (cancel).
The button will go dark.
Note:
The panel lock setting will not be saved. When the power is turned off and then on again, the keyboard will
reset.
