Performing
You can transpose the key of a performance without having to shift the position of your
fingers on the keyboard. This feature is called “Key Transpose.”
This lets you take a song in a difficult key with lots of sharps ( ) and flats ( ) and play it
in a key with fingering that’s easier for you. This is handy when playing accompaniment
to a song, to match what you play to the pitch of the singer’s voice.
