Transposing with Key+
Another way to transpose a track is to use the Key+ column in the Track
view. For example, letÕs raise the Sax track by an octave:
1. Click in the Sax track's Key+ column.
2. Enter 12. This raises all notes in the track by 12 half-steps, or an
octave.
3. Press Enter.
Transposing with the Transpose MIDI Effect
One Þnal way to transpose a track is to use the Transpose MIDI plug-in
effect. Pro AudioÕs MIDI and audio effects let you modify notes and
sounds on the ßy, as they are played, without making permanent
changes to your music and sound data. (They can also be used to perform
destructive, or permanent, editing.)
For example, letÕs raise the Bass track by an octave too. In the Console
view, do the following:
1. Right-click in the Bass track effects patch point (the empty box
below the track name) and choose Cakewalk FX-Transpose from
the menu. The Transpose effect is added to the track.
2. Double-click the Transpose effect to open the Transpose dialog
box.
3. In the Offset box, type 12. You can also use the pop-up slider
below the box to set the offset value.
