Transposition
The Transpose buttons can be used to change the tuning of notes played on the Forte
keyboard in semitones (ST), also known as half-steps. This is a convenient way to change the
key of a song without learning to play it in a different key. The Transpose buttons are located
to the left of the keyboard, above the Pitch and Mod Wheels. The Transpose buttons also
transpose MIDI notes sent to the USB and MIDI out ports.
Press the Transpose - or + buttons to transpose the Forte keyboard down or up by one
semitone. The top line of the display shows the current transposition value.
To transpose up and down by octave intervals (12 ST), press the OCTAVE- and OCTAVE+
soft buttons underneath the display.
Pressing both Transpose - and +, or Octave - and + simultaneously will reset the transposition
to 0.
The maximum transposition value possible is +/–36 semitones.
The LEDs of the Transpose buttons indicate whether the current Program (or Multi) is
transposed up (Transpose + LED is lit) or transposed down (Transpose – LED is lit). When
there is no transposition, neither Transpose button is lit.
