Keyboard Transpose - Oberheim OB 12 Operating Manual

OB 12
The SRC (Source) field indicates the starting memory location (whether referred to a Program or
a Timbre), while DST (Destination) displays the destination location. You can use the encoder or
the number keypad to set the destination location, since the starting location is automatically set
with that active when the function is activated.
After making the desired settings, in case of automatic Morph pressing the [ENABLE] button will
activate the function. In case of manual Morph the function will be carried out immediately when
the [MODULATION] wheel is turned to its minimum setting or pressing the above button: this
button can also be used to interrupt and restart the function.
Pressing [AUTO] or [MANUAL] again (depending on which Morph has been selected) disables the
function.
The EDIT PROGRAM MENU also allows you to regulate the parameters associated to the automatic
Morph. From the menu described above, select field 8-AUTO MORPH SET; the display will show:
in which you can set:
TYPE: setting this parameter as TIME allows you to set the period of time taken to pass from
one location to another with a time value. If MEASURE is set, the Morph time can be set with
a value in bars.
TIME: (displayed if TYPE=TIME) sets the Morph time, meaning the time taken to pass from
one Program (or Timbre) to another.
MEASURE: (displayed if TYPE=MEASURE) sets the number of bars taken to carry out the
Morph.
The KEYBOARD TRANSPOSE allows transposition of the whole keyboard in semitones.
Unlike transposition applied to the individual Parts or individual oscillators, transposition of the
whole keyboard is useful when the user wishes to play beyond its normal range (in a treble or bass
direction) while retaining the difference in pitch between the Parts.
N.B.: When the keyboard is transposed, the MIDI Note On messages will be sent to the MIDI
[OUT] function in relation to the transposition. Conversely, the messages received by the MIDI [IN]
port will be unaffected by the transposition. However, refer to point 10.1 for details of setting of the
MIDI channels assigned to the Parts.
