Transposition ... [TRANSPOSE]
The Clavinova’s Transpose function makes it possible to shift the pitch of the entire keyboard up or down in
semitone intervals to facilitate playing in difficult key signatures, and to let 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 the song as if it were in C major, and the Clavi-
nova will transpose it to the key of F.
You can also change the key signature of playback songs, in addition to your own performance.
