Changing the key of the keyboard
(Transpose)
This function allows you to transpose the F-120R’s pitch in semi-tone
steps. This transposition also applies to Song playback.
1. Press the [Transpose] button (it lights).
2. Hold down the [Transpose] button and press the key
corresponding to the tonic of the desired key.
(In this case, the note will not sound.)
The Transpose setting continues to appear in the display while the
[Transpose] button is held down.

You can also adjust this setting by holding down the [Transpose]
button and using the [–] [+] buttons.

once again.
The [Transpose] button will go out.
Note
With the factory settings, both the song and the keyboard will
be transposed. If you want to transpose only the keyboard or
only the song, make the appropriate setting as described in
“Specifying what the transpose function will aect” (p. 22).

indicator goes dark) when you select another song.
Example: Playing a Song in the Key of E Major while
using the C-major ngering
Hold down the [Transpose] button and press the E key (since E is
the tonic).
Counting from C as a reference point, one moves up four keys,
including the black keys, to reach E, thus “4” appears in the display.
If you play C E G g It will sound E G# B
Dividing the keyboard into two
instruments (TwinPiano)

persons can play the same pitch ranges. This function lets you use the
F-120R as though it were two pianos.
1. Hold down the [Piano] button and press the [Other]
button so both of them are lit.
Twin Piano will turn on, and the following settings will be applied.
• The keyboard will be divided into left and right sections, with
“middle C” located in the center of each section.
• The left and right sections use the same tone (Grand Piano 1).
• The right pedal (damper pedal) will be the damper pedal for the
right section, and the left pedal (soft pedal) will be the damper
pedal for the left section.

mode (see p.22).
