Transpose determines the key of both the main voice and the bass/chord accompa-
niment of the selected style. It also determines the pitch of the songs and the
Multi Pads. This allows you to easily match the pitch of the EZ-150 to other
instruments or singers, or play in a different key without changing your fingering.
The Transpose settings can be adjusted over a range of ± 12 semitones (± 1
octave).

Press the [OVERALL] button, repeatedly if necessary, until “

Change the value.
Use the numeric keypad to set the desired Transpose value (-12 - +12). To
transpose the pitch down, simultaneously press the [–] button and use the
numeric keypad to type in the (negative) value. You can also use the [+]/[–]
buttons to increase or decrease the value. Holding down either button con-
tinuously increases or decreases the value.

Resetting the Transpose Value
• If you’ve changed the Transpose
setting, you can instantly restore
the default setting of “00” by
pressing both [+]/[–] buttons
simultaneously (when Transpose
is selected).
• Transpose has no effect on
voices #88 (Echo Drum Kit), #98
and #99 (DJ), or #00 (Drum Kit).
Also, this setting cannot be
changed during song playback.
