Transposition, Tuning, and Octave Change The most important and fundamental adjustment for any musical instrument is tuning. The TRANSPOSITION, TUNING, and OCTAVE CHANGE functions described below let you control the pitch of the PSR-5700 in a number of ways. TRANSPOSE/TUNE This function allows the overall pitch of the PSR-5700 to be transposed up or down in semitone increments, and fine-tuned in 0.5 Hertz increments.

The "0" setting can be instantly recalled by pressing both the left [-] and [+] buttons simultaneously. The tuning range is from 427.5 Hertz to 452.5 Hertz, adjustable in 0.5Hertz increments. 440.0 Hertz is "normal" pitch, and this setting can be directly recalled by pressing both the right [-] and [+] buttons simultaneously. Press the [EXIT] button to exit from the TRANSPOSE/TUNE function. The TRANSPOSE/TUNE mode is automatically exited if neither of the [-] or [+] buttons are pressed for approximately 10 seconds.
