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. “Transposing” the pitch of the Clavinova
keyboard makes it easier to play in difficult key signa-
tures, and you can simply match the pitch of the key-
board to the range of a singer or other instrumentalist.
● Use the TEMPO [▲] and [▼] buttons to select the desired
degree of transposition while holding the [MIDI/TRANS-
POSE] button.
The amount of transposition selected is shown on the
TEMPO display as follows:
