Operating mode name
Name of the current operating mode.
Master transpose
Master transpose value in semitones. This value can be changed
using the TRANSPOSE buttons on the control panel.
Note: Transpose may be automatically changed when selecting a
different Performance or Style. It may also be changed when load-
ing a Standard MIDI File generated with an instrument of the
Korg Pa series.
To avoid transposing, the Master Transpose is "locked" by default.
If you want to lock or unlock it, change the Master Transpose Lock
parameter's status (see "General Controls: Lock" on page 204),
then write the Global to memory (see "Write Global - Global Setup
dialog box" on page 220).
