Reassigning the Octave/Data Buttons

In addition to setting an octave shift, the Octave/Data "+" and "-" buttons can also be assigned to control any
one of the six additional MIDI functions described in this section.
In the diagram below, you will see that the first 7 black keys are labeled "DATA = ________." These keys are used
when selecting a newly assigned function for the Octave/Data buttons. When assigned to these functions,
both buttons will remain lit, regardless of the current setting of that function.
Refer to Appendix A, "Edit Mode Functions" on page 27, for a full-page illustration showing all Keysta-
tion Mini 32 advanced functions. The page can be printed and used as a quick visual reference while using
your keyboard in Edit mode.
The six additional function that you can assigned the Octave/Data button to are:
Transpose
In some cases it may be useful to raise or lower the pitch by a number of semitones (half-steps) as opposed to
an entire octave. For example, if you are playing a song with a singer that is having difficulty singing the top
notes, you may want to reduce the pitch by one or two semitones. This is achieved using the Transpose func-
tion. When assigned to this parameter, the keyboard can be transposed a maximum of two octave in either di-
rection.
