KEY-TRANSPOSE
When you wish to play a song in the key of E
major without using any black keys.
Playing with the Key Transposed
If you wish, you can play the instrument with
the key transposed, without needing to shift
the position of keys played. This conveniently
allows you to play in a key that matches a vocal
accompaniment, or to change a song in a dif-
ficult key, having numerous sharps and flats,
into a key that is easier to play.
The following explains how the key can be
transposed from E major to C major. Consider-
ing the note of Doh as the tonic for the C major
key, you need to go up by four keys on the
keyboard to reach the Me of E major. There-
fore, press the & (#) button 4 times.
