Transposing Keyboard Sounds and
Songs Played Back (Transpose)
By using the “Transpose function,” you can transpose your performance without
changing the notes you play. For example, even if the song is in a difficult key with
many sharps ( ) or flats ( ), you can transpose it to a key that is easier for you to
read and play.
You can also use this function to play back a song in a different key.
When accompanying a vocalist, you can easily transpose the pitch to a range that is
comfortable for the singer, while still playing the notes as written (i.e., with the same
fingering positions).
