TRANSPOSITION The Personal Electronic Piano's TRANSPOSE function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in semitone intervals up to a maximum of six semitones. "Transposing" the pitch of the Personal Electronic Piano keyboard makes it easier to play in difficult key signatures, and you can simply match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instrumentalist. The MIDI/TRANSPOSE button and TEMPO and buttons are used for transposition. Press and hold the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button. Press the TEMPO or button as many times as necessary to produce the desired degree of transposition. Each time the TEMPO o r button is pressed the pitch of the keyboard is transposed by one semitone in the specified direction (i. e.

PLAYING THE PERSONAL ELECTRONIC PIANO After making sure that the Personal Electronic Piano's AC plug is properly inserted into a convenient AC wall outlet: 1. Press the POWER switch located to the left of the keyboard to turn the power ON. When the power is turned ON, the PIANO voice selector LED will light (the PIANO voice is automatically selected whenever the power is turned ON). * Pressing both the TEMPO and buttons simultaneously while the MIDI/TRANSPOSE button is held produces normal keyboard pitch. 8 PITCH CONTROL Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Personal Electronic Piano over a ±50-cent range in approximately 3-cent intervals. A hundred "cents" equals one semitone, so the tuning range provided allows fine tuning of overall pitch over a range of approximately a semitone. Pitch control is useful for tuning the Personal Electronic Piano to match other instruments or recorded music. To tune up (raise pitch), hold the E0 and F0 keys simultaneously. Each time a key in this range is pressed the pitch is increased by approximately 3 cents, up to a maximum of 50 cents above standard pitch. To tune down (lower pitch), hold the E0 and F #0 keys simultaneously. Each time a key in this range is pressed the pitch is decreased by approximately 3 cents, up to a maximum of 50 cents below standard pitch. To restore standard pitch (A3 = 440 Hz), hold the E0, F0 and F#0 Tkeys simultaneously. Release the E0, F0 and F#0 keys. * Standard pitch (A3 = 440 Hz) is automatically set whenever the POWER switch is initially turned ON.
