Transpose
The Transpose function changes the pitch of the notes and
chords you play. Instead of figuring out what other keys you
need to press to accommodate the singer or an instrumentalist,
you can set the required Transpose value and go on playing the
song the way you practised it, while sounding in a different key.
See the example above.
(1) Press the [TRANSPOSE] button.
The display now looks as follows:
(2) Use the [NO/–]/[YES/+] and/or numeric buttons ([0]~[9]) to
set the desired transposition interval.
The setting range is –12~12 semitones. A “semitone” is one
step between a white and a black key (or two adjacent white
keys, i.e. between “E”/“F” and “B”/“C”).
Press [+] or [–] repeatedly to transpose the keyboard up or
down.
You can also directly enter the desired interval by pressing
the corresponding numeric key.
To transpose the keyboard down, hold down [–] while press-
ing [0]~[9] (in that case, you can transpose the pitch down by
up to 9 semitones)
Here’s an example: if you want to hear an “E” every time you
play a “C”, select “4”. All other notes will be shifted by the
same amount, so that you end up sounding in E major when
you actually play in C major, etc.
The corresponding value and the icon appear in the
display.
(3) To switch the Transpose function back off, repeat steps (1)
and (2), this time selecting the value “0” (no transposi-
tion).
Note: This setting can be saved to a User Program (see p. 41).
Note: There is also a function that allows you to specify which
section(s) the Transpose function should apply to. See “Trans-
Mod*” (p. 37).
Octave settings
The E-200/E-100 allows you to transpose the Keyboard parts
(Main, Split, Dual) up or down by 4 octaves.
To change the octave transposition of a part, hold down [TONE]
(Main part), [SPLIT] (Split part) or [DUAL] (Dual part), while press-
ing [–] (down) or [+] (up).
Other Keyboard part functions
Here are yet other functions related to the Keyboard parts.
These can be set via the FUNCTION menu, or are covered else-
where:
• Keyboard velocity (see p. 31)
• Master Tune (see p. 37)
• Volume of the Keyboard parts (see p. 38)
• Intelligence function for the Split part (see p. 38)
• Hold function for the Split part (see p. 38).
