TRANSPOSE THE INSTRUMENT (SEMI-
TONES)
If you would like to play a Song in a different key,
or a song is too high or too low for a singer or
other instrument, you can transpose PS1500 to
play the song in an easier key.
The TRANSPOSE +/– buttons allow real time
semitone adjustments (transpositions) of the
overall pitch (range
±
12 semitones = 1 octave).
1. Press TRANSPOSE+ to raise the pitch or TRANS-
POSE– to lower the pitch.
TRANSPOSE+ pressed once displays an in-
crease of +01.
TRANSPOSE– pressed once displays a de-
crease of –01:
Holding either button changes the value con-
tinually until +12 or –12 is reached.
The LED on one of the buttons will be on to
indicate that the instrument is currently in a
Transposed status (sharp or flat ).
