Playing the EZ-TP Changing the Pitch (Basic Key) of the EZ-TP The default pitch of the EZ-TP is Bb - the same as most trumpets. This means that if you play a "C" on a piano-pitch score using the EZ-TP, the note produced will be different from the same note played on the piano. If you set the pitch of the EZ-TP to "C," however, the notes produced by the EZ-TP and a piano or other "C" instrument will be the same. The EZ-TP can be set to the following keys: Bb, C, Eb, F, Fr1, and Fr2. NOTE • To change the key of song playback, see page 24. 1 Press the button so that the upper indicator lights. 2 Press the [KEY] button. 3 Use the [-]/[+] buttons to select a key.

To check the base pitch refer to "Check the Pitch Of the Bb, C, Eb, and F Keys" on page 18. The EZ-TP base pitch will be as follows for the various key settings: Bb: "C" on the EZ-TP will correspond to "Bb" on the piano. C: "C" on the EZ-TP will correspond to "C" on the piano. Eb: "C" on the EZ-TP will correspond to "Eb" on the piano. F: "C" on the EZ-TP will correspond to "F" on the piano.
