Master Transpose
Master Transpose value in semitones. This value can be changed
using the TRANSPOSE buttons on the control panel.
Note: You can also transpose MP3 files. Keep in mind, however,
that transposition is limited to the range -6…+5 semitones. This
range is enough to cover all keys, but allows to avoid excessive audio
degradation. Any further transposing will have no effect. So, you
may see a +7 transpose value shown in the display, but the MP3
will still be limited to +5 semitones.
Note: Transpose may be automatically changed when selecting a
different Performance. It may also be changed when loading a
Standard MIDI File generated with an instrument of the Korg Pa
series.
To avoid transposing, “lock” the Master Transpose parameter in the
Global (see “General Controls: Lock” on page 218), then write the
Global to memory (see “Write Global - Global Setup dialog box”
on page 231).
Recognized chord
Displays the recognized chord, when you play a chord on the
keyboard. If no chord abbreviation is shown, no chord recogni-
tion mode has been selected by using the CHORD SCANNING
buttons (see page 15).
