Overall Control
The PSR-510 [TRANSPOSE] button makes it possible to shift the pitch of the PSR-510 up or down in semi-
tone intervals up to a maximum of 12 semitones (one octave). Transposing the pitch of the PSR-510 keyboard
makes it easier to play in difficult key signatures, and you can easily match the pitch of the keyboard to the
range of a singer or other instrumentalist.
