Transposing Your Performance
The keyboard can be transposed in semitone steps.
When accompanying a vocal, or when performing as a singer-
instrumentalist, you can transpose the pitch to match the singer’s
pitch range without changing the ngering of your keyboard playing.
1. While holding down the [Transpose] button, turn
the [ ] knob to select the number of semitones that
you want to transpose.
For example if a song is in the key of E major but you want to
play it using the ngering of the C major scale, you would set the
keyboard transpose setting to “4.”
If you play C E G
0
It will sound E G B

You can also change the keyboard transpose setting by holding
down the [Transpose] button and pressing the note that will be
the tonic (root note) of the transposed key.
2. To exit transpose settings, press the [Transpose]
button once again.
The [Transpose] button goes dark.
