Performing
Shifting the Pitch (Transpose)
“Transpose” means to shift the pitches of songs and the keyboard.
The Transpose function makes it easy to do the following.
• You can use unchanged fingering to accompany a singer who is singing in a key different than the original music.
• A song written in a difficult key with numerous sharps ( ) or flats ( ) can be performed in a key that’s easier for you to play.
• Notation of a transposing instrument such as trumpet or sax can be played as written, while hearing the transposed pitches.
For example if the song is written in E major but you want to play it using the fingering of the key of C major, you would set Transpose (Keyboard) to
“4.”
If you play C E G It will sound E G# B
MEMO
• With the factory settings, both the song and the keyboard will be transposed. If you want to transpose only the song or only the keyboard, turn
the “Link” setting on/off as necessary.
• If you want to transpose an audio file, refer to “Transposing an Audio File (Audio Transpose)” (p. 55).
