ENGLISH Selecting & Playing Voices Transposition The Clavinova'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, and lets you easily match the pitch of the keyboard to the range of a singer or other instruments. For example, if you set the transposition amount to "5," playing key C produces pitch F. In this way, you can play a song as though it were in C major, and this instrument will transpose it to F major. Procedure While holding down the [DEMO/SONG] and [PIANO/VOICE] buttons, press one of the F 2-F 3 keys to set the desired amount of transposition. F 2 C3 F 3 -6 -4 -2 +1 +3 +6 -5 -3 -1 0 +2 +4 +5 The lowest key Transpose down. Transpose up. Normal pitch. [DEMO/SONG] + [PIANO/VOICE] + C3 key: Plays normal keyboard pitch.

[DEMO/SONG] + [PIANO/VOICE] + B 2 key (the first black key to the left of C3): Transposes the pitch down a whole tone (two semitones). [DEMO/SONG] + [PIANO/VOICE] + F 2 key: Transposes the pitch down by six semitones. [DEMO/SONG] + [PIANO/VOICE] + C 3 key (black key to the right of C3): Transposes the pitch up by one semitone.
