If you have created a split in a Setup, you might find that the notes assigned to a zone don't play in the octave that you need to be playing in. Or you might be playing with a singer who needs to have a song in a different key, but you don't know how to play the song in that key. The solution for either of these problems is to transpose one or more zones in your Setup.
1. Start with one of the 2 zone Setups that you created in any of the previous tutorials. Press Edit.
2. Press Column Select until the Left Column LED is lit. Press Row Select until Transpose is selected (LED solid).
3. Press Edit until the LED for the zone that you want to edit is lit.
4. Change the transposition to the desired amount, using the Yes or No buttons, or the numeric entry buttons plus Enter. Each number equals one half step. For instance setting the transpose to 2 would give you D when you play a C. Set it to 12 to transpose up an octave. If you want to transpose down instead of up, set the value to a negative number. You can use the +/- button to choose a negative number when using the numeric entry method.
Since each zone is independent, you can transpose one zone or both to any amount you want.
Setting the transpose parameter does not transpose the sound module part of the SP. Instead, it changes the MIDI Note number message being sent by that zone. This means that you can transpose a zone that is used to play an external module, since it simply sends different note numbers to that module. What this ALSO means is that if you happen to be using some external controller to play the sounds in the SP, setting the Transpose parameter on the SP will have no effect - you would have to program transposition into that external controller.
