TRANSPOSE
This
parameter
permits transposing the
overall pitch of
the
keyboard
up
or
down
a
maximum
of
two
octaves.
The
data
range
Is
from -24
to
+24,
with
+00
corresponding
to
standard
keyboard
pitch.
Each increment corresponds
to
a shift
in
pitch of
one semitone-a
setting
of
+02
would
therefore
raise
the pitch of the
entire
keyboard
a
whole
tone.
Data can
be
entered simply
by
pressing
a
key
on
the
keyboard
within
a
plus/minus
two
octave range
of
C3
(middle
C).
The
pressed key then
assumes
the
pitch of
C3
and
all
other keys
are
adjusted accordingly. Pressing
a
key higher than
C5
results
in
a
+24
setting,
and
pressing
a
key lower than CI
results
in
a
-24
setting.
This
method
of
data
entry,
however, can
only be used
once
after this
function
is
called.
Subsequent changes
can be
made
using the
DATA ENTRY
control
and
switches.
