Basic Operations and More

Transposition

This instrument's Transpose function makes it possible to easily match the pitch of the keyboard in semitone inter-
vals to the range of a singer or other instruments.
For example, if you set the transposition amount to "5," playing key C produces pitch F. In this way, you can play a
song as though it were in C major, and this instrument will transpose it to F major.
While holding down the [FUNCTION] button, press one of the F#2–F#3 keys to set
the desired amount of transposition. Holding down both controls shows the current
amount of transposition.
 To transpose the pitch down (in semitone steps):
Press one of the F
 To transpose the pitch up (in semitone steps):
Press one of the C
 To initialize the normal pitch:
Press the C3 key while holding the [FUNCTION] button.
