Convenient Functions

Disabling Buttons—Panel
Lock

By using the Panel Lock function, you can disable the buttons

with the exception of certain operations. This is a convenient

way to prevent buttons from being pressed inadvertently,

changing the settings.

When the panel is locked, the following operations can be

performed.

- Play using the piano sound

- Key Transpose

- Master Tuning (p. 23)

1. Before switching the power on, turn the

volume all the way down.

fig.7-01

2. While holding down the [Piano 1] button,

press the [Power] switch.

fig.7-02.e

3. Adjust the volume.

Playing the keyboard now produces a Piano 1 sound.

It will not be possible to switch to another sound.

4. Switching the power off and back on again

releases the panel lock and returns the ep-
90/70 to its usual state.

MEMO

If you turn on the power while holding down the Metronome [On/

Off] button, it will also be possible to sound the metronome. You

will also be able to adjust the metronome tempo, time, volume, and

sound.

Transposing without
Changing Your Fingering
—Key Transpose

You can play in a different key—without changing the keys

you are playing.

When playing in a difficult key with many

(sharps) or

(flats), you can transpose the keyboard to play in an easier

key.

Key transpositions remain in effect until the keyboard’s

power is turned off.

Using the C Major Keys to

Play a Song in E Major

1. While holding down the [Demo] button,

press the tonic (root) of the key to which

you want to transpose.

Use the C2–B2 notes to select the key.

→ For the notes that correspond to each setting, refer to

“Functions Assigned to the Keyboard” (p. 31).

Here, press the E2 key.
