The TRANSPOSE [-]/[+] buttons transpose the overall pitch of the instrument (the
keyboard sound, Style playback, Song playback, and so on) in semitone steps. Press
the [+] and [-] buttons simultaneously to instantly reset the transpose value to 0.
The UPPER OCTAVE [-]/[+] buttons allow the pitch of the RIGHT 1 and 2 parts to
be shifted up or down by one octave. Press the [+] and [-] buttons simultaneously to
instantly reset the octave value to 0.
Use the PITCH BEND wheel to bend notes up (roll the wheel away from you) or
down (roll the wheel toward you) while playing the keyboard. The Pitch Bend is
applied to all the keyboard parts (RIGHT 1, 2 and LEFT). The PITCH BEND wheel
is self-centering and will automatically return to normal pitch when released.
The maximum pitch bend range can be changed on the Mixing Console display:
