TRANSPOSE THE INSTRUMENT UP OR
DOWN
If you would like to play a song in a different key,
or a song is too high or too low for a singer or
another instrument, you can transpose SK760/
880 to play the song in an easier key.
The TRANSPOSE b/# buttons allow real time
semitone adjustments (transpositions) of the
overall pitch (range 24 semitones = 2 octaves).
1. Press TRANSPOSE # to raise the pitch.
An insertion screen shows the current Trans-
pose value (0 = standard pitch).
Press the Transpose # button as many times
as necessary until you reach the desired
pitch. The LED turns on to show that the
instrument is in a positive transposed status.
2. Press TRANSPOSE b to lower the pitch.
An insertion screen shows the current Trans-
pose value.
Continue pressing the TRANSPOSE b but-
ton until the dialog window shows a negative
reading. The LED on the b button will then
turn on. (An eventual positive transpose sta-
tus will be cancelled).
