2.7 Transpose
When the Transpose function is “ON” the MP4’s key can be raised or lowered
in half steps. The available range of transposition is 24 semitones, either up
or down.
While holding down the TRANSPOSE button, press any key on the MP4
keyboard to select a new transposed key. Pressing the F key above middle C
for example will transpose the MP4 UP to the key of F (+5 half steps).
The transpose amount can also be set using the VALUE buttons.
While holding the TRANSPOSE button down, press the VALUE buttons to
change the transpose amount.
The display shows the current TRANSPOSE amount when the TRANSPOSE
button is held down. A value of “0” indicates no transposition.
