Tuning: Scale - Korg pa 900 User Manual

In Realtime When you press either the TRANSPOSE [ ] or
[ ] buttons, the new transpose setting will occur
when the next note is played for both the Style
and Keyboard tracks individually.
The next key or chord you press will sound with
the new transpose setting applied. (Note that if
you play a Keyboard track prior to a new chord,
the Keyboard track will play in the new key as the
Style will continue to play in the old key until a
new chord is entered).
Transpose applies to Player
This checkbox lets you turn the Master Transpose on or off for
the onboard Player.
Transpose applies to Midi In notes
This checkbox lets you turn the Master Transpose on or off for
Note messages received from MIDI IN.

Scale and Transpose position
The Scale and Transpose Position allows you to define the rela-
tion between the Scale and the Master Transpose.
Post-KB/Pre-Scale
When this option is selected, notes will be trans-
posed immediately after they leave the keyboard.
The Scale will be applied to the transposed notes.
For example, if you altered an E, and then set the
Master Transpose to +1, the E key will play F, and
the altered key will be E
altered E).
Post-KB & Scale
When this option is selected, all notes are trans-
posed immediately before they enter the internal
tone generator, or are sent to the MIDI OUT, but
after the Scale. For example, if you altered an E,
and set the Master Transpose to +1, the altered
key will still be E (that will play an altered F).

Standard MIDI File and chord transpose
When changing the Master Transpose, chord abbreviations con-
tained in a Standard MIDI File are transposed and correctly
shown in the display. Master Transpose must be activated on the
Players, but not on the Keyboard.
Note: Chords contained in a linked TXT file or shown when load-
ing a CDG file are not transposed.
Drum Kits and transpose
Drum Kits are never transposed. If you want that any Sound is
not transposed as well, assign them to a track set to the Drum
mode in Style Play/Song Play > Track Control > Mode (see
"Type" on page 120).
