Chapter 8 Pattern Playback

26 Transposing the key

The Transpose function lets you change the pitch or key of the Pattern as it plays back. With this, you can

change chords on the ﬂy, and create your own chord progressions — instantly, as you perform.

Let’s try it out. Select a Pattern and start it up. Now, hold down [SHIFT] and press [KEYBOARD].

As the Pattern plays, try pressing various keys. For example, press [12] — and hear how the key changes.

Press [9], and you’re back to the original pitch. (Remember that buttons 1, 4, and 8 don’t have any effect

here.)

The trick to using this effectively is hitting the pitch changes right on the beat. To get the hang of it, try this

simple example — counting “one, two, three, four” with the Pattern — and stay in time with the rhythm.

Try changing pitch on other beats in the Pattern as well — for example, not just on the “one,” but hitting the

“one” and “three” both. Or on all four beats, for some unusual, “busy” changes. And did you know that you

can use the [OCT <<]/[OCT >>] buttons, too? This next example may take a little practice...

Notice that the octave doesn’t actually change until you hit the number button

on the keyboard.

Experiment with other Patterns as well. And when you’re done, don’t forget to

press the [EXIT] button to leave the function.

The button ﬂashes.
