Zone Transpose
The Zone Transpose function (ZONE TRAN) allows the pitch of a Zone to be shifted up or down in one semi-tone (half-
step) increments, to a maximum of 12 semi-tones.
1. Select a Zone by pressing its Zone button.
2. Press the Advanced button.
3. Press the Zone TRAN key - the LED screen will display the current Transpose value.
4. Repeatedly press the "-" or "+" button to lower or raise the pitch.
5. Press the Enter key.
6. Repeat steps 1 - 5 to set the Transpose value for the remaining Zones.
After setting the Transpose value and exiting Advanced mode, activate all desired Zones by simultaneously pressing
their respective Zone buttons.
Note: Zone Transpose shift settings work in combination with the Global Transpose shift setting. This can be useful
when working with different Transpose or Octave shift settings across multiple Zones. The Global Transpose function
shifts the entire keyboard up or down, while preserving relative pitch settings between Zones. For example, if a Zone is
configured for a Transpose shift of +5, and a Global Transpose shift setting of +2 is applied to the keyboard, the
effective octave shift for that Zone is +7.
