Performing

“Transpose” means to shift the pitches produced by the keyboard.

The Transpose function makes it easy to do the following.

• The pitch of your accompaniment can be adjusted to a singer’s vocal range without changing your

fingering (i.e., without changing the keys you play).

• A song written in a difficult key with numerous sharps ( ) or flats ( ) can be performed in a key that’s

easier for you to play.

Hold down the [Transpose] button and play the key that’s the tonic of the key into

which you want to transpose.

The current transposition setting is shown while you hold down the [Transpose] button.

You can also change the transposition setting by using the [-] or [+] buttons while holding down the

[Transpose] button.

If a setting other than 0 is selected, the [Transpose] button will be lit.

To return to the original value (0), hold down the [Transpose] button and press both of the [-] or [+]

buttons simultaneously.

You can use the [Transpose] button to turn the Transpose function on/off (if the transposition

setting is other than “0”).

The HP305/HP302 allows you to transpose both the keyboard and the song, or just the keyboard, or

together.

keyboard.

Example: Use C major fingering to play a song written in E major

Hold down the [Transpose] button and press the E note (the tonic note for the key of E major).

Counting from C as a reference point, the tonic note for the key of E major is four chromatic steps higher, so the display

indicates “4.”
