Transposing The Pitch In Semitones - Yamaha Clavinova CVP-809 Owner's Manual

Transposing the Pitch in Semitones

The TRANSPOSE [-]/[+] buttons transpose the overall pitch of the instrument (the keyboard sound, Style
playback, MIDI Song playback, and so on) in semitone steps (from -12 to 12). Pressing the [-] and [+]
buttons simultaneously resets the value to 0.
NOTE
• If you want to transpose the pitch of the Audio Song, use the Pitch Shift parameter on page 73.
• The Transpose functions do not affect the Drum Kit or SFX Kit Voices.
You can independently select the part to be transposed as desired. Touch the Transpose pop-up several
times until the desired part appears, then use the TRANSPOSE [-]/[+] buttons to transpose it.
NOTE
Transpose can be done on the display also via [Menu]  [Transpose].
Master Transposes the pitch of the entire sound with the exception of the Audio Song, the input sound
from the [MIC/LINE IN] jack and the Audio Input Sound from the external device.
Keyboard Transposes the keyboard pitch including the chord root for triggering Style playback.
Song Transposes the pitch of the MIDI Song.
Fine tuning the pitch
By default, the pitch of the entire instrument is set to 440.0 Hz according to equal temperament. This setup can be
changed from the display called up via [Menu] → [Tuning]. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website
(page 9).
