● NTR (Note Transposition Rule)
Two settings are available:
• ROOT TRANS................... When the root note is transposed, the pitch relationship between notes is
maintained. For example, the notes C3, E3, and G3 in the key of C will
become F3, A3, and C4 when transposed to F. Use this setting for parts
that contain melodic lines.
• ROOT FIXED.................... The note is kept as close as possible to the previous note range. For exam-
ple, the notes C3, E3, and G3 in the key of C will become C3, F3, and A3
when transposed to F. Use this setting for chordal parts.
● NTT(Note Transposition Table)
This sets the note transposition table to be used for source pattern transposition. Six table
types are available:
• BYPASS............................ No transposition.
• MELODY ........................... Suitable for melody line transposition. Use for melody parts such as
PHRASE 1 and PHRASE 2.
• CHORD............................. Suitable for chord transposition. Use for the CHORD 1 and CHORD 2 parts
when they contain piano or guitar-like chordal parts.
• BASS ................................ Suitable for bass line transposition. This table is basically similar to the
MELODY table, but recognizes “on-bass” chords allowed in the FINGERED
2 fingering mode. Use primarily for bass lines.
• MELODIC MINOR............. This table lowers the third scale degree by a semitone when changing from
a major to a minor chord, or raises the minor third scale degree a semitone
when changing from a minor to a major chord. Other notes are not
changed.
• HARMONIC MINOR ......... This table lowers the third and sixth scale degrees by a semitone when
changing from a major to a minor chord, or raises the minor third and flatted
sixth scale degrees a semitone when changing from a minor to a major
chord. Other notes are not changed.
● Highest Key
This sets the highest key (upper limit of the octaves) of the note transposing for the Source
Chord Root setting. The notes designated higher than the highest key will actually be played
back in the octave just below the highest key.
This setting is effective only when the NTR parameter (above) is set to ROOT TRANS.
