Transpose and Tuning
You can also adjust the tuning and change the transposition (key) of the entire
PSR-GX76 sound with the Transpose and Tuning functions.
Transpose • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
Transpose determines the key of both the main voice and the bass/chord accompa-
niment of the selected style. It also determines the pitch of the songs. This allows
you to easily match the pitch of the PSR-GX76 to other instruments or singers, or
play in a different key without changing your fingering. The Transpose settings
can be adjusted over a range of ± 12 semitones (± 1 octave).
1 Select the Transpose function.
Press the right Overall button, repeatedly if necessary, until “TRANSPOS”
appears in the display.
2 Change the value.
Use the numeric keypad to set the desired Transpose value (-12 - +12). To
transpose the pitch down, simultaneously press and hold the [-] button, and
use the numeric keypad to type in the (negative) value. You can also use the
[+]/[-] buttons to increase or decrease the value. Holding down either button
continuously increases or decreases the value.
