Roland RD-500 - M the Transpose FUNCHION; WB Chorus and Reverb

@ The Transpose Function
The Transpose function allows you to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard. This allows you to play a
difficult song (one with lots of sharps or flats) using the fingering of C Major!
For example, if you want to transpose the keyboard to the key of F Major:
While holding down the FRANSPOSE button, press the note F. Now when you play a C
Major scale, you'll actually hear the notes of the F Major scale!

Press and hold the TRANSPOSE button and press the note C.
When the TRANSPOSE button is dark, any Transpose setting will be invalid.
@ Chorus and Reverb
The Chorus and Reverb effects of the RD-500 can really enhance your music. Chorus creates the
illusion of several instruments playing together, while Reverb recreates the spacious sound of playing
in a concert hall.
